Also remember those prices are in USD

total cost for me including season pass = $111.50 :angry-banghead:

Starting to get sick of gaming company's doing this and i defiantly wont be buying it now it also raises doubts about me purchasing the crew see how i feel when i cool off :angry-screaming:

I can understand it on a boxed copy from a store you have freight and production etc but for digital key on steam is just not right and to do it a week before release and call it pricing error :snooty:

I walked into a Game store today and noticed it on the shelves with no price on but instead a sticker saying pre-order now, so I asked an assistant the price of the game for PC this was the conversation.....
Me Excuse me can you tell me the price of the PC version.
Assistant I'm sorry but we won't know the price till the release day
Me But lot's of places including Steam have prices for it.
Assistant What price is it on Steam.
Me £49.99
Assistant Don't know about that but we wont can't give you a price till release day.
Me Idiot !

I then walked out of the shop before I said something I shouldn't of.
How can they expect you to buy something on a pre-order without knowing the final price, is this so they can rip you off on release day with some made up price depending on sales. :angry-screaming:

Haha, only played throught the first parts of the game. Did a take out. But done that with driving, i need to use those obstacles and traffic lights more.
Game looks awesome, runs smooth as butter, seems to be very well polished. I have to get used to the 3rd person viewpoint.

I found a poker game in a cellar, lol. That was kinda cool.
The hacking of personal devices makes you more aware of all the stuff we share on a daily base IRL, lol

So far it seems like a fun game to me. :party:

I don't have the season pass. Only grabbed the Special Edition in the pre-sale. Comes with some nice DLC already

Controls are a bit too indirect for me, either too much or too little input. Makes driving not easy.

The gameplay is very nice.

I grabbed the season pass not whole lot there but i guess more DLC to come

Yeah controls feel very console like at times also i turn left then it turns left later or to much left i can live with that has nice smoke effect when doing burnouts but the graphics all on ultra is very nice i like just walking around looking at stuff especially the rain beautiful

did bit of online free roam i was hoping for co-op but ended up having shoot out with mate instead good fun

Game definitely needs a patch or two
