Did you even read the message?
It's not a gaming site, it's for comparing gaming prices across NZ stores.

Yes I did look at the site - I find games are cheaper via Steam. My gameplay reference may have been a bit vauge, but I find older games have better gameplay than the latest releases, thats all :) Im sure a lot of people will find the site useful, but just not me.

Interesting site missing a few things though imo, namely:

- Sub categorisation by genre for each platform
- A look and feel that isn't horrible
- Side navigation sections with top x new releases, top x most viewed, etc

It shouldn't be too hard to scrape the price on steam and impulse driven for a game, it's probably foolish to exclude those options imo.

Pretty sweet for doing quick price checks when browsing TradeMe!
