Yes
Oh GOD yes
Alas, living in Australia I am in real danger of being terribly, horribly screwed by crappy localisation of prices.
So I decided to compile my efforts of finding the best Rage pre-order deal available.
I am a huge fan of Steam but at $89.99, I am afraid that the ease of use that this platform affords cannot justify that price.
Amazon.com is awesome as always, selling the physical game for $59.99, automatically upgrading to the Anarchy edition which gives you some free ingame crap, and also adding $10 to your Amazon account.
I have ordered games from Amazon before, and it does take about 10 days to get here to central NSW, but if they do decrease the price of the game before it is released, they will sell it to you at the lower price.
I am tempted to go down this path and use the $10 credit to buy the paperback novel of the game.
As always, ozgameshop.com has an awesomly cheap price. $38.99 with free delivery.
This doesn't appear to include an upgrade to the Anarchy edition, but I feel that the inclusion of these free in game items can really cheapen the initial experience of the game.
The only thing with ozgameshop is that I think they are based in the UK, so it has taken from 5 to 10 days for the games to get here, but it is a very good price.
Digital Distribution.
Direct to drive has it for $59.95, but they only operate in USA and Canada.
Gamersgate, Impulse, and greenmangaming don't seem to have it available either.
I even had a look on gog.com in the small hope that they might have it, but to no avail.
Conclusion
I will keep looking around, but for the moment ozgameshop's $39 is pipping Amazon's $59.95 deal.
Funnily enough its almost cheaper than game.com.au's $35 for the strategy guide.
