The latest GfK sales charts are out, and for the second week running, there’s not a single PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 title in the top ten. Here’s a hint publishers, if you want your games to sell, try pricing them a little closer to their US counterparts. It’s pretty clearly working for Nintendo! Gamers in the US would have a conniption fit if games cost US$88-97 - and that’s standard affair for new Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 titles in Australia.

The BBC is reporting one of the strangest eBay stories you’ll ever hear, regarding a 16-year-old boy from Norfolk who recently bought a PlayStation 2 from the online auction site.

When it arrived without two of the games mentioned in the auction, he was a little disappointed…until he noticed the fat wad of notes in the box, totalling 65,400 Euros (US$90,120). No doubt creating a scene that would make the Nintendo 64 Kid look sensible, the parents cottoned on and have contacted authorities who are now looking after the loot. There is a chance the money could be reclaimed should the matter remain unsolved.
