Well if your a developer living in australia then you will surely be rich, but if your a gamer then you will always get worse end of a stick. im referring to (la noir) im kinda disgusted in how every person who wants a certain something only gets it based on larger demographic. im referring to america. Since la noir is a aussie game no dlc support is issued or even collectors edition unless you live in "states" now thats utterly dumb. the only way to get extensive content is to patiently wait til ps3 or xbox notifcation is authorised thats dumb. The only way to actually get a better deal is to buy copy from http://www.play-asia.com/L_Noire/paOS-13-71-dw-49-en-70-44hy.html But while you have to wait an additional wait for a copy that is gamestop copies sold from playasia to be shipped from asia to australia you realise how dumb this must be. while playasia is selling dlc with a copy at a insane price, you gotta wonder did team bondi really give a ____ about the aussie gamers?

Wouldn't the special editions and all that have more to do with the publisher?

Asia may be in a weird market compared to usa, europe, so we don't have big gaming venues like in the states, or publisher support. but it just pains me a game that's been in developement since 2007 get's washed down. i hope team bondi are happy with their sales.

Guess you better move to the States, then.

You guys do get the shorter end of the stick, but we do have a much bigger market than the rest of you, so it does make sense.

The states generally just gets everything, I live in Canada, literally right above the US and even then we still dont get some things the US does.

Why doesn't the US get Ratchet and Clank for the PSN welcome back package? :cry:

Maybe we should sue these developers more often so that we also become important.

It's Australia. The Country is an extremely small portion of the wider games market, and considering Rockstar own the IP (I'm quite sure) and publishing rights it's no wonder they're flaunting it overseas. Hell I've seen a few huge posters in a couple of Tube stations here in London. But alas that's Australia.
