The GTA5 Effect on the UK Market (also platform breakdowns)

Keep in mind that the UK has much cheaper games than other European countries. GTA V in Amazon UK was £35 = 44€, but other European countries sell it at 60-70€. Because of this, many people like me outside the UK preordered it from Amazon UK rather than buying the local ripoff prices.

I saw Beyond today for 65(!) euros at a Dutch retailer. Ridiculous considering I got the Special Edition for 30 quid on Amazon UK, which goes for 60-70 euros in retail here.

Disgusting. If anything I supported the UK market for enormous amounts of euros already, and I bet a lot of my fellow mainland Europeans do as well.
 
The last of us must have some pretty long legs. It's still $53.22 which is unusually high for a game that's almost 4 months old. Hoping ft some good Black Friday deals.
 
Probably because it is.

Well, before the OP's data, I would have thought that PC retail being apx 1/3 the total of PS3 retail and 1/4 the total of 360 retail was impossible. I don't think it's that far of a stretch to imagine PC digital distribution making up the remainder of the difference. Of course, this doesn't account for the digital sales on Live and PSN, which I imagine is a growing percentage of total sales.
