    Can anyone tell its retail price for the PS3 in his country? I doubt that prices are fixed by Sony (whatever they say). Here GTA V costs a mere € 69.90 (well, on PSN has the same price actually)!

    Around 130-170 zloty for digital, 190-240 zloty for disc, on Allegro.pl

    Although I've no idea if the game is region or language locked, most of them state they are the PL version.

    The cheapest imo is most of the time on Amazon.co.uk, at the moment it's at 41.79£, which is 49.70€. It will be there in stock again by Saturday. Here in the shops it's also between 60-70€, which is I think the normal price.

    From here in the UK I can see as low as £33 on eBay, whilst mainly in the USA, though more competitive companies like Play dot com are a bit higher @ £48.00, which is about 57 Euro.

    The cheapest site I see which is where I usually order from these days has it for just over €60. (488kr = €60.46) That's coolshop.com, which serves all the nordic countries. And they never charge for shipping so that's the actual amount paid too. The highest prices I see here are in retail shops, close to €75 in those places. (599kr = €74.21)

    Can't wait for the Steam release of GTA5, cause when it comes to Steam, the best place to buy games is Ukraine - sometimes the prices are 50% off at the day of release, and imagine how much less you could pay if there's already a deal on it on Steam. Second best is Brazil, around 30-40% off.
    Of course some games are region locked, for example with ARMA 3 you have to activate it on Steam using VPN but after that all should work without any problems. Well worth it since the VPN versions ~60pln and "normal" ~120pln.

    How do you buy games from Steam in a different region/country? I've only ever used the Steam client on both PC and Android (not even the website version). Can you just go to each countries separate Steam site and purchase?

    The only exception is key selling sites such as Play-sc.com (recommended) whom sometimes offer other region keys and give VPN or other instructions on how to activate them in your own region. One such game for me was a Russian key, and in the instructions they provided the English download patch which turned the game completely into the English version.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    You can't do it on yourself, not legally at least

    Switching to a different region is easy, just type in your browser: http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=## where ## is the region code, eu = Europe; br = Brazil; ru=Russia and etc.
    But you can only see the prizes that way I think, it will check your IP. Heard you can buy using VPN or TOR but you know, it's not very legal and Steam might ask you for why your location changed or something...

    The perfectly legal way is to find someone or a shop that sells Steam games as codes or even better - gifts.
    Heard people got together on different forums and one person bought something on Steam for them, and the other person bought the game in their region and gifted it. Steam has a great system for trading, you can see what the seller gave you and until both sides don't approve it nobody gets their item.

    As for myself, I'm simply using Allegro.pl - seen one guy from Ukraine that sells super-cheap games as gifts so they're 100% legit, but others have good deals too, even as keys.
