Chances are it's only going to go to stores who are good at precisely managing pre-order numbers and have behaved well in the past.
Yeah that whole Destiny Ghost edition fiasco was ridiculous...

Im pretty sure that scalpers are hoarding all the orders, and once they can't sell them, this edition will flood back to the market, and at a cheaper price.
Let's hope you're right, cause if it never gets a EU release the price will have to drop heftyly (is that a word?) before I buy it, no sense in buying a game I can't play...

XB1 and PS4 games are all region free... so you'll be able to play it no matter where the disk is from.

But that is how things are supposed to work since the launch of Xbox 360 and PS3 for digital content. You could not even play the game last time if the game and system's region does not match.

Would you prefer to have different consoles for different region OR a quick swap account to download the DLC once and it will be playable forever.

Don't we all want the same thing... but they will not do it because of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. They have said it before, regional stuff is to control the pricing. Unless the whole world pay the same price for the same thing, it will not happen.

I would be more than happy to pay the same price ... compared to the US the danish prices are insane (I know our economy is alot different! )

Actually, to correct you there, the 360 had region locking on some of the disc based games, but XBLA & DLC for games were for the most part completely region free. Many times I redeemed US codes using my AUS profile.

I can't comment on 'Games on Demand' versions, never bought any of those.

PS3 disc games have always been region free, digital codes aren't, like it still is nowadays.

PS3's game saves were region locked, 360's weren't (for the games that were region free)
