Here in the UK we're getting pretty use to paying more for our gadgets compared to our US cousins. However that still doesn't excuse the latest pricing announcement for the new DJ Hero game.
"DJ Hero will be $120 when it's released in the United States. Which is pricey, but not unheard of. When it's released in the UK, however, it'll follow a precedent set by Rock Band in being ridiculously expensive.
The title - which will bundle the game and a plastic turntable controller - has a recommended retail price of £108. Which in American Dollars is a whopping $177."

I currently don't own a console for the Guitar Hero line of games. But i'd be mighty tempted to get back into my console gaming for this!

This is a tad ridiculous. At that price you could afford an entry level usb digital turntable for your PC.
These guys are really pushing their luck.
