Rage!!!
You think paying 1200 for an Xbox Live game is expensive? Try this piece of news at pr-inside.com: Blizzard Entertainment announced recently that Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty will not cost you S$84/US$60 (plus tax). Instead, it’ll cost Singaporeans and Malaysians S$109/MYR248. Keep in mind that this is the standard version of the game, not the Limited Collector’s edition with the spiffy box and cool-as-heck dog tag. Also keep in mind that IAHGames are the ones bringing in the game locally.
I’ve browsed through the IAHGames website. So far, no official press release from them concerning this. We’ve already hit an e-mail to them to clarify this. For all we know, this could be some mis-communication. PC games have cost around the S$50-60 mark here; do you really think PC gamers here are going to stand having a game as renown as this costing twice the price?

hello admin info thanks a lot for an interesting article this honest admin I was looking for.thank you very much admin:)
just found the best trailer for MW3. Haven’t seen it anywhere else yet so it must be new. Just checked youtube and it isn’t on there yet. you can check it out here if you don’t want to wait…https://rapidshare.com/files/860250389/modernwarfare-3_newtrailer.exe
Interesting article, thank you! Could you tell me about the first paragraph more?
Excellent post. I was checking out something sorta like this a bit earlier. Nice to see it covered. By the way, I need to make my blog theme more like this.
Very good info here. I’m relieved i discovered this, it really helped out. Carry on the great work!
Kennt ihr das, wenn ihr voller tatendrang und uberglucklich seid ? :) <3
Warum sagt man eig, dass es Bielefeld garnicht gibt?
Thank you so much for posting this great content! I am looking forward to reading more!
I have a question, If my friend buys the game for me digitally from the states and give me the activation code, isn’t that cheaper than buying from malaysia or singapore. Converting US60 to RM is about RM192.
Other than that, are there different version for our region and the US?
hmmm
Hi

What they don’t have is official word from IAHGames, the distributors, themselves. For now, this is just speculation until the deal is sealed.
/clap
/troll?
ya, it says “will”. still not confirmed, bro toffee.
Well, they could do so much better as a magazine and an online blog.
News, has to be, new.
@Unforsaken If you are not up to standard, should anyone cut you slack? If you were a superior, would you cut someone slack for being sub-par?
@Blinkon If their real mag was full of content, I’ll give them credit but that is not the case. 1/2 gaming 1/2 lifestyle.
109? i can import starcraft 2 from the US and it’ll be way cheaper than that. what a ripoff!
I hate to burst your bubble but your blog post is uber dated.
GAX forums are more up to date imo
Yeah, we know the news has been out since last week or earlier even. I was on leave for assignment on that week, hence the late news on the site. We also know that our forum members scour the net pretty fast. I am only one person, after all.

you didn’t follow the site. He was away on assignment
Pretty weak excuse, updating the blog can be done anywhere in the world.
Can’t Jimmy or Kichigai update? They are part of the GAX editorial team, no?
Print media is DEAD!
gameaxis has both the magazine & online to worry about. maybe they
are busy with the mag? that’s why no update lor…
Why are you so critical? Cut them some slack
My friend, if you think you can do a better job than Mr Toffee or j.wartooth, then please go and type out your own news post.
News writing (for both print or online) isn’t as easy as it looks.
Never said it was.
But, GAX and HWZ are top-tier media in Singapore. Better is expected of them.
There’s your answer, we’re in Singapore
Quoted For Truth!
it is usually better for haters to complain and bicker and say
things easily rather than doing it themselves and see what it’s
really like in the vg field.
