So I'm away in Cologne, as the O/H was dragging me around the shops thought I would do a spot of window shopping, big German games chain in Cologne...... Forza 3 Standard 59.99euros....CoD Mw2 69.99euros! 2nd hand FM2 24.99euros!!

I know the pound is weak at moment at 1-1 that makes very expensive gaming.

Wish I had bought the 10 old 360 games I have kicking around at home, they might have paid for a few cases of the local Fuhr.......hic smile

At the 'old' exchange rate that's not much more than the UK though... 70 euros at 1:1.40 is £50.
More than the UK, but not by a massive amount!

On a sidenote, my father has been regularly working in Cologne for a few years, he said there's a fabulous camera shop there with everything from a 50mm 1.8 to 800mm primes... Well worth a shufti so I'm told! wink
