Tax Free Gaming

Oh, so when a country does something logical they're weird then?

*clap*

 

tis true....i never understood why when i went to LA why i bought a $100 sony walkman(old skool) and it came to $120 or so when went to the tills...thats ust plain weird and missleading.

but yeah the retail price on the boxset is £99 from normal retail shops but as the 17.5% is not added on in duty free in airports that gets cancled away then with my £5voucher it comes to £81 or so......i think....

 

I believe in the US different states have different taxes on the same products. So a retail price of $99 could be $105 or $109 with tax added, depends on the state your in.

 

As for games, I've got Polarium, Mario 64, Mr Driller: Drill Spirits, Atari Retro, Space Invaders Revolution and Asphalt Urban GT.

Polarium is quite good, Simular style of game to tetris, but wears a little thin after a while. You should be able to pick this up quite cheap now (£17 on Play.com)

Mario64 DS is just as good as the old version on the N64. Plus some really addictive mini games.

Mr Driller: Drill Spirits is pretty good, not much to it but it's fun while it lasts.

Space Invaders is fun (as long as you like space invaders) but I still prefer the old version I've got on my old Acetronic console - it's the best version I've ever played.

Atari Retro - useless don't bother with it.

Asphalt: Urban GT - not bad, but your better off sticking with Mario Kart.

I quite like the look of Castlevania, Meteos and Bomberman - but as I haven't played them I can't give you my opinion on them.
