That's not likely to improve for either company now that they've both been acquired by gaming companies with an almost exclusive US presence.
Impulse/Gamestop also occasionally doesn't follow Steam's lead with regards to US/Australia pricing variations, so it's worth having it installed (or the website bookmarked) just to keep an eye on the sales. I picked up Arkham City for AUD$25 a couple of weeks back, 75% less than it's currently going for on Steam.
Nothing really changed witih Impulse, they region locked everything anyway. :P
