@M3TAL :
Par for the course. Prices rarely correlate 1:1 and there are lots of different factors that can be put forward for the sake of putting them forward. But the usual ones are exchange rates, sales tax differences, offset extra costs e.g. advertising, local support, the CEO’s new Porsche, etc etc.
Not the first time, won’t be the last either.
@M3TAL Game prices are set by the developers. They set it to whatever they think best, based on the particular region You win some, you lose some. The pricing for Darksiders was actually cheaper in Canada compared to US.
Steam, Uplay, Origin, Xbox, PSN etc have been localizing prices for years now and I dont disagree with them I mean how else would you be able to set a fair price based on a local market? $30 4300 yen £30 its all the same to the person living in their respective country.
