Games are $60 here. That's for every decent game that comes out…everywhere it's the same price. PS3 and 360.
News about the price.
While Europeans are sadly used to paying more for games, we don't think they're quite as used to paying as much as Britons are being asked to fork out for Modern Warfare 2 when it hits this holiday season.
The standard version will be priced at £55 (USD$90), making it one of, if not the most expensive regular editions of a game on record. But that's just for the standard version.
The fancy "Prestige Edition" - which includes a working set of night vision goggles - is priced at £120. That's just over $195.
If that's not bad enough, it's expected that Modern Warfare 2's price jump is just the first of many the British market will see over the coming months, as a weaker pound and higher development costs drive wholesale prices skyward.
Sucks. But hey, it could be worse. You could be French. They've got it worse.

I think i will be playin with the nigh vision goggles more than me playin the game!! LOL
wow that didnt take long did it some guy is making comments about how the NVG will cause crimes and that it's a bad idea to sell it. lmao
Rob Watson, the "Bare Knuckles" blogger for the Inquirer, doesn't want to come off as someone railing on the evil of violent video games. Still, he says "this is a bad idea.
"I would say 99.9999 percent of gamers who buy the Prestige edition will have a blast with these new goggles, innocently playing around at night with them.
Yet, it is also like giving away a free race car with Gran Tourismo or Forza - someone is going to cause a highway wreck. In Modern Warfare 2's case, I shudder (just a bit) to think of someone, who may have a hard time with reality anyway, donning these goggles for real mischief or even worse."I know, I know, I'm cringing at that kind of dot-connection, too. But before you go ripping off this guy's head (well, virtually anyway), maybe his point could be rephrased. The night vision goggles are a novel promo; but think of the headlines we're going to get should anyone use them in the commission of a crime, especially a violent one, whether or not Modern Warfare 2 is said to be an inspiration for it. Yeah, I'd consider that a plausible and obnoxious consequence of the Prestige Edition, but it's still not enough to make it "a bad idea."
In the end, I am sure Activision's lawyer-mans looked at this and the risk of exposure. Someone blessed it, and they probably figured that it can't be said - in a legal sense anyway - that functioning night vision goggles sold to adults are an enticement to commit the violent acts depicted in a game, any more than selling a combat helmet is.
