1. The price of UK games is ridiculous compared to US prices - forking out £49.99 for Prey (with its 6-hour long campaign and sparse multiplayer) was an insult. I was hoping this was the start of a new trend for prices over here, but once again we're screwed over.

UK gamers have the same console, the same games, and play on the same online service as US players, so why the HELL are we treated to absurd prices and taunted with US-only special offers and extras?

2. I dont know where you get your games, but asda sells most games for £39.99.
And I wont be buying test drive, the demo was dull and annoying.

Microsoft shafts the UK again, xbox live diamond card anyone??

3. well f**k that anyway... I have a Gold membership and regularly buy from the marketplace!!! That's unfair!! I will not be buying this game, unless the marketplace downloads are free for Europeans, otherwise they're discriminating against us because we're economically disadvantaged (compared to US)! They're making us pay more for the same amount of content!

4. Reply to number #2.I buy all my games from Asda or play.com as
they are the cheapest.I live near the trafford centre with the
massive 24 hour asda next to it. So they always have stock in.

6. I live in the US and feel $60/game is a rip, I feel for you guys. I either rent online or buy from play-asia anymore. Although I think Play-Asia is NTSC-J, so if you have a pal set I'm not sure how/if it'd work.

8. David Wright - I either buy my games from Gamestation or GAME, as I can return them quarral-free for up to 10 days - I did this most recently for the disappointing Prey. I've bought from Asda and Tesco before - and I agree, their prices are a lot fairer - but as soon as you remove the seals from the box, they won't accept returns for any other reason apart from damages/wrong disc.

If I'm spending between £40-50 on a 360 game, I want to know I can return it if I've been let-down by yet another biased Gamespot review.
