In Holland there is a webstore called GCshop. This a gameshop for gamers. So they don't want to make profit and sell the games cheaper then the usual stores. They want to sell Halo 2 Limited Edition for 56 Euro (play.com, amazon.uk are cheaper) , the normal price for the LE game in Holland is 65 Euro. There are lots of pre-orders here for the Halo2 LE, but GCshop won't get the game from Microsoft and their distributor, because they "sell the game too cheap" says Microsoft. But they only lose true fans with this kind of actions, because GCshop doesn't make profit on their game sales, their slogan is: By gamers, for gamers. I hope you don't agree with this kind of actions from Microsoft, and talk with them.
Can you make a statement why Microsoft will not distribute L.E. in Holland's best Xbox Store or could you ask if someone from the Dutch department could post a reaction?
