For the 1/5 American who thinks that it's because of taxes or that it's just more expensive in UK in general you are wrong.
All other companies like the one selling metal Gear Solid 5 and fallout 4 are selling it fairly. A 60usd game for £42 over here. Even dlc is never 40usd to 40gbp here but around 32gbp.
ONLY destiny does 40usd to 40gbp.
Ofc we can fork over extra cash to get it, but it's the principle. You go to an ice cream shop to buy something for 5gbp, the next day u go and they say it's now 8gbp cos we are greedy and we know you like it, doesn't make me want to buy it. I can afford it but I'll feel like I've been ripped off.

Im not sure ice cream is a good comparison, if it was transported from the USA then we would have to expect the additional shipping charges. But I agree with your point. Its bullshit on bungies part, no reason for it

Talks about importation on digital content... Gtfo

There is no shipping as it's not imported - the digital download is from the European retailer (SCEE) and the physical copies are manufactured in the EU.

No shipping on a digital download. UK also has tax breaks on gaming, DLC etc.

I was stating the shipping on his ice cream comparison is why it wasnt a good comparison to make
