there's 2 kinds of stupid repeated throughout this topic
the first is people who can't tell the diff between pounds and dollars...
the second is people who bring up the lack of sub fees, which has nothing to do with what the box costs.
to address something else, prices are deflated all over except where supply can't meet demand (obviously doesn't apply to digital items where there's no end to the supply), because of the piss poor economic situation all over the world. we aren't 'lucky' it's not higher. we are very very misfortunate to live in a world where most governments are broke, millions are starving, billions poor, and 90% of all capital controlled by 10% of the population.
But hey, thanks for the depressed game prices, makes everything else worth it....
The lack of subscription fee is VERY relevant considering that SWTOR charged the same for the box and hits you for a fee.
And your little wanna be che pseudo marxist diatribe was cute. Governments are broke, particularly in the US because out politicians figured out they could buy votes by promising people things we cannot possibly pay for with any sort of long term sustainability. Its because people are entitled so they vote for politicians who want to give them what they're "owed".
Compared to what? So I spend $60 US... I threw that much away on SWTOR, cancelled and now get nothing. OTOH, I still have GW1 and can play it anytime I want.

Go look at the price of all the other new games that came out and had a sub.
"Good God, that's a lot of money!"
