Yeah some areas in Eastern Europe are very expensive for CE's but Australia is actually very expensive as well

Even regular games are expensive there

Australians pay way too much for just about any game0related thing. The RRP for a standard game is around $109 - while I understand that it's $60 in the U.S. I've also heard that the AU Government is looking into why Australia gets screwed over technology prices.

Yeah never understood that personally

I think it may have something to do with the US dollar being stronger in years gone past but I doubt 60 USD ever equaled 109 AUD

Edit: Highest historical exchange rate is 1 USD for 1.55 AUD

In essence a 60 USD would cost 90 AUD but that's very simplified anyways

Doesn't take things like Purchasing Power Parity into consideration

The RRP is $109, but very rarely is any standard copy of a game that price. Most games (360 & PS3) these days are between $69-$89. Boxed PC versions are usually $20 cheaper again.
