Am I the only one with this problem?

here in Sweden things is very expensive, A ordinary PS2 games costs about 60$, the PS2 cost about 430 $.
I have already bought stuff for about 800 $, and soon the good games are coming, Onimusha, Z.O.E and GT3, hell that is about 180 $, I got a ordinary job about 1200 $ a month, but I cant aford all games, cables and stuff!!!
Am I the only one that cant buy all the good games coming up this spring?

yeah it can cost upto £50 for 1 game in the UK !

but hey don\'t panic the price of games won\'t stay that high for long. Plus by the sound of things you alreadt havea PS2, so all you need to do is wait for the price of games to drop or order online.

Thank God this is a question about the PS2.  I thought you were going to ask about a burning sensation in your pendayho.


Here is my idea:  Rent some....  Or get another job.  It\'s funny because you know you don\'t really have to buy every game out there right at release.  I\'ve noticed a lot of deals out there now for games so paying 50 bucks still is pretty stupid anyway.

I can\'t wait untill April thats when i get my PS2, and over the summer i will be off University and be able to get some kick @ss games .

You definetely aren\'t!

I\'m with the same problem.

Finland isn\'t a cheap country, not at all! I envy you americans and japanese! lucky ppl.

The price of games hasnt changed at all that much.
I remember going out and buying gran tourismo for £50 when it first came out. as soon as the ps2 has made enough sales we can be sure to expect another platinum range.

I hope PS2 will have platinum-games, or somekind of classic-games serie.

Someday we\'ll see SSX -platinum, Onimusha -platinum etc.

I always loved the idea of Platinum. I got FFVII for just 20 bucks! that\'s almost robbery...

Yes, indeed! Square robbed me for $20 for a game I never play. Anyone want to buy an almost unused copy of FFVII?

Don\'t hit me, I just didn\'t like the game.

how long did you play the game? Goddamn, it\'s the best FF! I have hard time accepting you disliking FF, samwise, as you like LotR like I do.

I thought you had same tastes...
I thought you were interested in same things as I...
I thought... *sob* ...that you\'d know what a good fantasy is

Do you like the other FF\'s then?

Lol, I like good fantasy. It\'s just that FFVII was boring and frustrating (it\'s the only FF game I\'ve played though). I didn\'t like all those random battles. You couldn\'t even go three steps without having to stop and fight for 5 minutes. And I couldn\'t figure out where to go; it was confusing.

y eai remember going through the same thing but like all final fantasy the story will get you going but that one the story takes an hour or two to realy get going, but when it gets going it shows you why it is one of the top selling games of all time.

Have you tried ordering on line in European countries where you could find cheaper games ? For example UK or France?

Give me some addresses and I will check it up, what about delivery time?

Move to america and get better prices...!!!
