I live in Southern California (USA). At the local EB games, there's about 1/2 shelf for PC games, while there are 2 shelves per console for consol games. At Best Buy, it's just a partial row of games. Then the prices, GTR2 - $19.99, GTLegends - $9.99, Flatout 2 - $29.99 (so much for racing sims over arcade games). Adventure and role playing games are $30 to $40 (for some reason XBOX games are cheaper than the other console games - same title).
