I'm looking forward to some online combat. Exploit you and your brother up for a game sometime? I will try and get Scratches, Viper and Leeerrrrooo if you guys are up for some R6V2, HALO3 or CoD MW?

I did just read games like Mass Effect cost 6000 MSP in Australia, well, it was described to convert to 99$, which is 58€ and utterly ridiculous, as it's quite near the price of a new release.
360 GOD pricing varies by territory News // Xbox 360 /// Eurogamer - Games Reviews, News and More I think our 30€ is a bit rip off too, like 25€ would be ok, but it certainly is not so far fetched as 58€, or 99 Australian Dollars. I even feel bad for you and this is not sarcasm. The best thing with this update was the rating system, yet I saw some people had rated MW2, so I think there is one thing that should be repaired... And what about buying a pair of virtual Adidas shoes? Like 400 MSP, so am I really willing to pay to advertise?  Just now in my desk, under a pile, is Alissa Quart's book "Branded", now it feels worth reading.

I hear you mate!
The price of down-loadable games on XBL are ridiculous. Mass Effect of $99.95? I can buy it in store with a manual for $39. The Avatar Market place is just as over priced. 800 Microsoft points for a light saber my avatar can wiggle about ... That is just stupid. IGN: Games on Demand: Fair Deals & Price Hikes These are American prices so at least MS is not biased ... they are ripping off everyone! (Although Mass effect is $20us ... maybe they do hate Aussies?) On a side note. Nice .sig and avatar Zaxvien

Quote:
I got some afterthoughts about this issue, like S'plosion Man is to be patched to have awardables/awardable. So it is not problematic. Then there was a light saber and Gears of War armor in the avatar marketplace. What would someone think could be great awards for Gears of War 2 or a Star Wars game? - Gears2 armor, light saber. Maybe the original plan was different, but then someone got greedy? Does not matter so much, but in a way the overall feeling that I have to pay monthly and what I get is "an online shop with advertisements".
