not gamestations horrific prices on games like RE4?
On the plus side just found RE4 pal with bonus disk for £21 on ebay :)
for some reason the pal version is usually 24-30 on there, I think its down to the superior box art

Ya'll should come over and visit. Get more bang for your buck. Shit I mean a sandwich and a coke cost me something like 12 dollars in London.
I think my point was that you were getting screwed over on pricing. I can find used videogames for on average 19 bucks here. That's like 9 pounds. _________________ "Say, that's a nice fez!"

May as well have followed him down Koopa Troopa Beach, it would have been probably a more accurate representation of london than that game. _________________

Yeah, cause in Getaway you don't get bonus points for downing pints and playing GBA in Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese.
So let me get this straight...
Batteries are the same over there, but electrical outlets aren't. That's why you all have to wait 2 months or more to get stuff that comes out over here.
Also, your economy is awesome compared to here, and you still are forced to pay premiums for the Good Hobby.
I'm not sure I got anything straight.
Well you can have your hobnobs and your spotted dick and your endless amounts of curry. I'll pay 10 pounds for used games.
Still, the games you did find are top notch. _________________ "Say, that's a nice fez!"

PAL is the biggest reason we have to wait.
Wish they would just say fuck it and anyone with a non 60hz tv can raid the bargain bins for psx titles while the rest of us join the 20th century.
Don't forget out Kebab shops, fish and chips, vimto/tizer/irn bru and binge drinking from 16 years old upwards.
We pay more for pretty much everything but I think we earn a lot more too though. Only real difference is housing costs astronomically more.
little known fact that Manchester university has a sculpture tribute to Vimto which was invented there. _________________

Yeah real fish and chips is way too damn greasy for me. Still though, your ethnic food is top notch. Yay Colonialism!
I like the Manchester level in Resitance: Fall of Man.
So how much does a PS3 game run you across the pond? _________________ "Say, that's a nice fez!"
