I was gonna say man. Those foreigners sure have it rough. I saw the game in the store brand new a week ago for under 20.

It\'s a greatest hits in the US now, I assumed everywhere. So yeah $19.99 anywhere in the states.

I would buy 1 on line and pay the shipping if I was out of the states.

actually, $36 australian dollars is only about 19 US dollars, so its not much different.

That explains it man. Thanks for the heads up. I was beginning to wonder if he meant some type of Platinum MasterCard. Boy, am I glad I didn’t start in on the “why you should stay away from credit” speech.:D

Unless you\'re talking US$$ it helps to tack a country tag after the \'dollar\' figure.

Speaking of platinum, I wish they would of used it in the US for PSX greatest hits instead of the sickly green spline. So tacky
