Price up to $69.99 now

It seems that EA is trying very hard to undo all of the good things that they have been doing recently by increasing the price of yet another game on Steam for Australian users.

The game used to be $49.99USD like everyone else but has recently been jacked up to $69.99USD because of the "You're Australian and you have to pay more" tax.

A casual look over the rest of the EA games on Steam shows that almost all of their games now have an artificially inflated price for the Australian region. Thanks so much EA, you are saving me money.

$56 au to import
$78 au to buy on steam with EAs new pricing.

Steam does have the instant convenience, but you can buy a few indie games the the savings to entertain you during the wait. It'll be more fun than you'll have after CnC4 arrives anyway.

I have zero plan on purchasing C&C4, the game is not for me, I am just pointing out that this is another game which is over priced for no reason.

I have Canadian friends to get me cheap Steam games anyway
