Well, I ended up importing it from america, paying just under £30 for the actual game, and then £19 for bloody VAT. You think you payed alot, pah! I laugh at you.

Hmmn, it is a bit early.
Its almost like buying a 1Ghz processor, just for the 3Ghz to come out the next day at the same price... you sorta wonder "why didn't anyone tell me!"... and that sort of action is deemed unfair.

I paid £29.99, i was annoyed because its advertised as lower on the websites.. they say those are web prices which is fair enough except they don't state that! I go to virgin megastores to try and get a price of a game that I will pick up in store... no chance of finding that price it seems.

I'm a total frickin rock star from mars.
C'mon bro, I got tiger blood.

Planetside could be free and it wouldn't be a steal.
Consider ALL the problems that MxO has, put it in a FPS and put in an even more horrible storyline...and that PS.
(they did have a nice UI, but that is not worth playing the game)

i think its more to the effect that mxo is losing a lot of customers coming out with a game that was unfinished, just like swg, and now their trying to get back the people by bringing down the prices, i love market teams, rush the game out and then try to get more money by slashing the prices later!

Yep, that's bullshit we got screwed woo hoo. You think we'd get a discount or something for actually being in BETA but instead we get charged more. HAHA monolith is truly a great company.

Just to make it official, I got screwed twice (damn bday gifts), anyway...

Wish I could bug the hell out of ebgames to give the price difference back, since it's been less than 30 days that I purchased it lol.

Actually, I remember getting charged around $10 or so to have my SWG beta CD's shipped to me. I'm a sad man who can't invest worth crap. :)
