Exactly one year ago the Euro was worth 1,39 USD. Now, one year later, the Euro is only worth 1,06 USD.
How has this affected the big games?
League of Legends
RP price will increase with 10%.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
I remember 1 year ago you could buy a Case key for €1,79. Since yesterday you will have to pay €2,29 for a case key. This is almost a 30% increase. This is also for other CS:GO products like stickers.
Personally it's not even worth it anymore opening cases, because the keys are way too expensive for what you get out of the cases.

Euro failing because of bailing out Spain, Greece and others over and over. Looking forward to Germany voting out as the UK will follow.
Sorry mate but Germany wont get out of the Euro. We actually profit from a "weak" euro. Also, Germany has always been one of the biggest defenders of the currency.
it's also bad for trading in cs:go, so far people were giving 80% of market value in keys, now it will be even less..
If only there were good free-to-play FPS games out there!
name one :(
at least name it eur/usd
economics on crossfire
prepare for war guys
