Am I correct?
Oh and MCW, the main price hike over here in good ol' Brighty is due to our Value Added Tax (VAT) set at 17.5%. That's like £17.50 for every £100 (obviously) which is a HUGE amount when you get into multiple hundreds. Don't get me wrong, I'm not make excuses for Sony, I'm as peeved as the next UK gamer, just I'm having to deal with it as I really want one, and am getting one, in exactly er 23 days I think it is now until launch.
p.s. Ay Jim, where's the countdown to the UK launch of PS3 clock on the main site page? Come on, we need one don't we?  |
