I go here: http://www.1c-interes.ru/catalog/3353622/4054522/
and see that they are selling it for (I believe) 499 Rubles and if I go to www.xe.com and convert it to Australian Dollars it comes out as $18.95, in today's exchange rate, for a new release game which is CHEAP! Sadly since I can't understand Russian I won't be buying it.

Wow, games are cheap in Russia.

I thought about buying the Russian version online for that very reason when it first came out. I even had Google translate working on their buy page etc, but I decided it'd be too hard to play the game (no Google translate in game, unfortunately).

Yeah my daily rate of pay is like $270, but I still don't have any money at the end of the fortnight.
