1€ ≠ 1$ / Steam Unpowered
Since December 17, 2008
"December 17, 2008 — a date which will live in infamy"
This group started out to show people were against the very unbalanced prices that came with the currency change on Steam. Right now this group will focus on exposing all the flaws around the Steam platform in the hope it would eventually lead to improvement.
The group will keep the original name to show how this all started, only our goals have expanded.

Publishers/Developers are always bound to contracts espcially when it comes to a platform like Steam. Steam is a great platform but it needs some work financially before it becomes epic.
Evil_Allan this group is far from anti Steam. Besides you are wrong, I have inside info from the publishers/developers that they are bind to a contract on Steam and if they don't agree to some particular prices in EU they lose the contract. So please don't talk stuff you have no idea about.
If you look at it... Shouldn't the US version be MORE since the US currency is slowly going down?
Its not Steam who decides the prices of games on Steam, its the publishers. The retailers now that here in Europe (Not UK) we are rich enough to buy the games overpriced, so why should they change that?
We can just buy the games on an online store and get it send home. 1-6 of waiting isn't that hard to handle, i bet you have other games so play them while waiting or do something else than do your Anti Steam.

The thing about Call of juarez, is old news... We have been paying more money for our games quite some time now.
It's like waiting for Duke Nukem Forever.
