Ok so i just finished Dead Space and i thought for the Impossible play through id buy the exclusive Obsidian DLC to help me survive a little longer,, so, i know its $1.59 in the US store for the full pack and when i seen the price in our store being £3.19 i really did choke on my coffee.
Is this a mistake, or just a simple case of lets take the micky out of the EU customers?
So, i guess i'll give this DLC a well deserved miss, and i know its only £3.19 on our store but still, if its $1.59 on the US store this SHOULD mean we in the EU pay (According to reuters converter) approx 99p, you could even call it an even £1,, so since its £3.19 here in the EU shouldnt that mean it costs around $5 in the US?
What a joke, and im betting there'd be plenty of examples of good old blighty getting shafted up the micro transaction in the store regional currency difference,, one more example would be Tetris costs $5 (offer on PS+) but the same PS+ offer here in the EU is £4, and yes it IS the same pack, so how's that work out then, currency exchange rates do not apply or what?
