    For reference this is the New Zealand steam store and something like Portal 2 sells for $50. So, should I jump on the gaming bargain of the decade?

    Why? I am opening up discussion about the disparity of game prices around the world and especially on steam where it is even more readily apparent. Posting this in the first post kind of ruins the joke and I think that most users are smart enough to understand that.

    I don't know how anyone can watch that quicklook and still want to buy Duke Nukem... outside of being 15 and thinking "boobs".

    I couldn't register that price especially when Portal 2 is $50 on steam in the US too.

    That's the point I was making. That an actual quality game is $30 cheaper and also the same price on out store as the US store. It just shows how fucking crazy the DNF price is.

    Try this site for good game in NZ. They take about 1-2 weeks to ship but they are reliable and the deals are better then US prices at release

    In this case the exchange rate doesn't matter because the price is in USD and the thing I'm buying doesn't even physically exist. Why do some publishers on Steam keep their games the same price as in the US and others don't?

    Well, I paid more than that for Duke Nukem- though I got the Balls of Steel edition. I wish I was feeling ripped off and full of regret- but I totally don't. I'm kinda glad I've got this bust of duke on my shelf- even though I haven't actually gotten around to playing the game yet.

    It would be of very poor value at $50 let alone $80.
