The listing for the Asian version of StarCraft II on PlayAsia says it's the South East Asia version, I presume this means it's the same copy sold in AU/NZ/SEA, right? As in, I can play on the same Battle.net as people who bought it from Australia?
I just don't want to spend $90 on the game when I can get it for ~$70.

$20 for peace of mind. Sounds reasonable.

You can get it for ~$70 at JB...

And Blizzard have been fairly specific in saying ONLY copies purchased in Aus/NZ will have the region swap option.

if you actually looked around you would see there are far better deals than 90$ in aus a t m, even ordering it off game.com.au with free delivery is only 80$ i believe DSE Online has it for 69$?

The neg - Config tweak the game to the point you have as much advantage as a hacker.

Big W price match Dick Smith for $69, would be a better bet than online.

Hmm, would have preferred to get it online 'cause then I could order it this week. I'll have a look at JB Hi-Fi next weekend then.

EDIT: Also, why does the JB Hi-Fi website list SC2 as $89 if instore it's $69? (This is on both the online store and the main website)

Edited once, 1/8/10 - 8:26pm.

JB HiFi and Dick Smith Electronics both have it for $69, which is probably cheaper than that website after currency conversion costs.
