Ah, sorry, I should have worded it more clearly. I wasn't having a go at Game specifically, I was having a go at the insane pricing of the copies of the game itself. I don't really have much of an issue with the box, that's becoming more common but usually it's paired with a fairly priced base game.
I mean, £75 for a map and single player DLC (including two missions which are exclusive to this edition with no plans to release them later)? Or £90 for the steelbook, map and single player and multiplayer DLC? I don't recall any of these basic DLC or steelbook + DLC editions
ever costing this amount for anything in the past. A super simple comparison of how much they're taking the piss and for something coming out relatively close to RDR2 is Spiderman on PS4, £60 for the limited edition and you get the steelbook, an art book and some DLC.
I just feel that it's an absurd price and is nothing more than greedy bullshit from them with absolutely no reasonable justification and is simply them chancing it knowing people will still buy it.
When it comes down to it, especially with the Spiderman or even God of War or anything similar, if it was even £65 for the Ultimate Edition and there to be no weak Special Edition then I wouldn't be complaining, I think that would be okay enough despite still being a touch on the high side for what you would get at that.
