TDU seemed fun when I had a quick go in my local games store, so I was looking around for prices but something struck me, that I don't think has been mentioned yet (at least a search didn't find anything)
TDU on the 360 is a budget title in the US, with a RRP of $39.99 which works out about 21 quid. Yet in the UK, the RRP is £49.99 which is full whack. Even factoring in the way we end up paying a bit more for stuff than the US, I'd expect it to come in at £29.99. Yet we're paying more than twice as much than folks in the US.
How come the game was sold at a budget price range in the US, but not in the UK? It seems a liberty to charge that much extra for the same game.
