Re: EA trying to cheat us Europeans blind!

29.99 EUR = 35.2501 USD
Get over it! It is like $5.36, think of it as an international good will tax.
Hell when I was in Vancouver BC in September, everything I put on my Visa and my Visa check card had an international service fee attached to it. Like a 3x Latte at Vancouver International cost $3.79 CND, which is like $3.25 USD, but they slap a $.23 "Fee" on it. I still love Vancouver, and cannot wait to go back.
Hey Euro-dudes, DON'T D/L BF2:SF, APPARANTLY EA IS WORKING WITH POST WWII NAZI'S HIDING IN ARGENTINA, THEY ARE TRYING TO GET THERE STOLEN GOLD BACK! EA is collaborating with these Germans because after the release of Battlefield : Secret Weapons Of WWII, a half reanimated-zombiesque Herman Goering showed up at EA HQ (in Vancouver BC- Been there) and demanded that EA stop the copyright infrigement. He stated that even though Nazi Germany had been defeated, that Foke Wulf, Junkers, and The Meshersmitt companies all expected to share in the wealth that EA was making from the protrayal of the planes of the Luftwaffe!

Come on you guys! I live in Romania (an eastern European country) and I make only 200$ a month! And yet I bought the original BF2 (50$) and now I'll probably buy the expansion too, despite the fact that I'm not really "financially secure" right now. THE FACT THAT THE GAME HAS BUGS AND PROBLEMS IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT ISSUE!

Is the game worth buying? If BF2 says nothing to you or you played only a few hours since its appearance (the first BF2), then you shouldn't even be on this thread! But if you are at least a little bit interested by the game, why not? What is 30$ to the Western world?

Jesus, sometimes I'm embarrased to be American. Then I remember I'm from the North East, and at least we're not ****ing retards here.

It's a legitimate thread, and the poster has a legitimate complaint. Although it clearly says EUR 29,99 and I don't see how he could have missed that since its bright neon orange and the largest thing on the page, it's probably a mistake and its a good thing that he pointed it out.

The value of money here is based on euros, 100 for each euro. SF costs 3000 here, thats 50 USD...

Re: EA trying to cheat us Europeans blind!

Hold on everyone, I can explain this pricing issue with EA. EA has been in collaboration with the Federal Government ever since BF: Viet Nam came out. It seems that the game was too realistic and activated a whole cell of Manchurian Candidates who in turn helped GWB win a 2nd term in office. To repay the federal government, EA agreed to overcharge all Europeans in an effort to recoup funds spent over the last 100 years RESCUING YOU FROM INVADERS AND REBUILDING YOUR COUNTRIES! Get over it, everything costs more in Europe because you guys live in such over-populated, under-industrialized cities, it cost $$ to import. Here endith the lesson.

Lol your really really dumb. In fact you couldn't be more dumb if you had been driving a along and had a head on collision with a truckfull of dumbasses.

This board is way too serious, whenever we can inject a little humor we should. All of you sour-pusses should clam up if you don't have anything funny to say.
