How about Amazon.co.uk as the other guy said?

same price but you will miss out on the pre-order bonus from game (£139.99), I believe if you have it sent to you (US - outside the EU) Amazon should not charge you VAT and in effect will zero rate the transaction (you will pay net excluding VAT) and delivery charges are usually cheaper.

Only reason I am saying this is that I am aware amazon does it but some retailers doesn't comply with these regulations because they are either incompetent, want to save costs on admin, or simply will just zero rate the gross giving themselves a higher profit on foreign transactions so will just charge you the full whack (not passing VAT saving to customer).
Whatever works out cheaper for you really bearing in mind any customs fees in the US if you take this route and also the exchange rates
Edit: Just did it usually cousins California address
Items: £116.66 ($171.96 using today's exchange rate)
Postage & Packing (Std): £4.95 ($7.35 as above)
Price should not be too off for New York, this does not include any potential import fees. If you want you can keep an eye out for the exchange rates taking a risk; price may either increase from your price above, reduce, or item won't be available anymore (sold out due to waiting =p).
