Which country is the worst place to be a gamer?

Censorship wise.... I guess Australia... Price wise, I think Greece or Croatia.

Think of it this way... for the price of a PS3 in USA, we can buy 3 PS3 games in Croatia :P

I payed my 80 gig PS3 a year ago 3700 HRK which equals 646 USD.

For every 3, 60 USD games you get, we can get 2.

Our PDV ( I don't know the American word, but google translated it to Value Added Tax) is 23%

How About Any Third World Struggling Country?

Probably Congo: "The Republic of Congo in central Africa is leading the way being the Poorest Country today with a GDP-per Capita of $300.00" I mean...the entire nation only makes $300 a year. The entire nation would have to come together to buy a PSP Go, or a Wii.

Wow. Just wow.

Sierra Leone or maybe Burundi

They don't have electricity and they constatly have civil wars and everything sucks. I also think Iraq ends up pretty high on this list as well. First they had a peaceful existense then yankees came and took their oil. They started mass rioting and suicide bombing and then they makes games about how glorius the war in Iraq was end sells it to them for money.

I always feel sorry for Europeans and Australians.

It is not surprising that people here make so many ignorant statements of countries they know little or even visited.

Every Country that's not Japan, Europe, or America.

Yes. What is with the geographical illiteracy? Anyone who went to school knows that Europe is a continent, not a country.

Don't confuse typos/lazy internet typing with geographical illiteracy, the guy probably meant every country that's not Japan, America, or Europe.

Australia wins hands down

The Philippines.

The gaming society here is a joke.

DoTA(WC3) and cheap MMORPG players FTL

joopyme

The Philippines. Everyone here prefers playing DOTA, almost everyone here pirates their games (thus making people who own both a PSP Go and a PS3 like me mistakened as a really rich person), absolutely no support from SCE, Nintendo and Microsoft and that almost every original game is severely overpriced because they're all imported.tekken220

Actually here in Brazil the ps2 launched with a price of 699 Reais (367 USD), but we had the Xbox 360 officialy here since 2008, and while the prices were absurd at that time (almost reaching 1200USD) nowadays they sell for 473 USD. And although Sony doesn't sell the ps3 console officially, it has started selling the games here with the price ranging from 52 USD to 104 USD. Games for the Xbox360 here cost from 52 USD to 84 USD. You can also find a ps3 here for 473USD at import shops

So while the prices in Brazil are way higher than those from the USA and Japan, I think that there is still worse places to be a gamer than here.

Italy's the worst european country, thats for sure.

here, modern warfare 2 used costs 59 euroes. forza 3 used costs 54. the 360 wifi adaptor costs 79. and twilight princess is STILL 59.

at least the consoles themselves are pretty cheap. a DSlite costs 99.

North Korea, because they dont even have electricity.wooooode

You can't play games (or do anything for that matter) when your country has this kind of power grid.

Australia, Saudi Arabia and the UAE are among the worst Wings_008
