These are just random new games I picked out from a list of big recent games. Never is the console game more expensive than the PC game from what I see.
New games are either $50 or $60 depending on the game on both PC and Consoles the same on release here in the USA. But it seems like console games drop down in price quicker and more often than prices on Steam.
Steam sales probably do make up for that. But overall it doesnt seem like console games are really more expensive over PC games on Steam.
> Today, a common figurative sense for the word pickle is "troublesome situation"—as in "you’ve gotten us into a pretty pickle." About four hundred years ago, modern English borrowed the word pickle, its literal meaning, and this figurative sense from the Dutch, who expressed a predicament with the phrase "in de pekel zitten"—literally, to sit in the salty solution used for preserving meats and vegetables. Literary usages of the figurative sense include Shakespeare’s Tempest, when Alonso asks Trinculo, "How camest thou in this pickle?," and Lord Byron’s Don Juan: "The Turkish batteries thrash'd them like a flail, Or a good boxer, into a sad pickle."
I honestly thought it was fake at first, but:

The game I would really like is Far Cry 3. I just love open world games. I've put an obscene number of hours into Oblivion and Skyrim.
I like turtles!
Of those games you picked up I don't have Castle Crashers :D
