| 1155959 | 2010-11-24 00:59:00 | why is that there is a large price difference between the console and PC version of games?? example: F1 2010 on Mighty Ape the PS3 and XBOX 360 version have a price of $119.99 whereas the PC version is listed as $89.99. whats the rationale behind the pricing disparity? |
