hard not to take calling someone a liar as offensive. ;)

You gave two examples of major retailers (Gamestop and EBGames are the same company) selling preorders for $59. So "all major retailers" right now includes two stores. Most local shops are happy to take your preorder too. We should do a poll of our local gaming shops and see what they're charging for the games...
 
Bah, you are spoiled.

Over here new console games usually cost 599 SEK. That's about US $80 and VAT is included.

In Australia for PS2/Xbox games we've been paying $99.00 - $110.00 AUD ($74 - $82 USD ) since day one of release.

Now the X360 games are price in the range of $110 - $120 AUD ( $82 - $89 USD) incl GST.

I wonder which country would have it more expensive??
 
Wouldnt surprise me. Already getting the early adopters to pay $500-600 for the console, whats milking another $10 going to do to them? Make them change their mind? They'll bleed the early adopters as much as they can if their a smart company so they can make as much profit as possible as fast as possible.

No, Xbox 360 games in OZ dont go for 110 or 120. Thats a straight up lie, they range everywhere between 79 and 99. Where do you shop champ?

It's not a lie... most new games cost that much over here. Look in EB.

http://topshop.com.au/?hspt=90 Look at the "discounted" price of >$100 on most new releases. Add the discount to the price, and get the RRP.

What's with the aggressive attacks in this thread?
 
most xbox 360launchtitles where 69.99 EURO here( and most new games still are that price) .. disgustingly high.. that probably will be the same with ps3 .

It's worse here, the standard new game price for 360 is €75. Everything is a bit more expensive here, but it's still terribly discouraging when you walk into a game store these days.

$79 to $99 for X360 games? Where do you shop?

The prices I quoted were from K-Mart, Myer, EB, etc. The majority is around the $110 mark, but I am notice some $120 more recently.
