Isn't that like 57ish real money.

Unfortunately we are not paid in "real money" though so it's a real $25 increase for us.

Just a few years ago I was buying nearly everything in the US because our dollar was worth more and you have cheaper prices/taxes on top of that. Now Americans are coming here to shop.

How is Life is Strange? Worth the 20 bucks for the season pass?

One of my favourite surprise games, better than any of TellTale's stuff.

I immediately bought Beyond Two Souls afterwards to hopefully experience more of the same but that one was a bit too serious/full of itself.

Oh dear.

While not entirely the same thing you probably should have gone with Transistor. Or for a similar style of game but just humorous, Tales from the Borderlands.

I bought the latter but it didn't grab me after the first episode. Will give it another shot eventually though.

I don't regret playing Beyond (never had a ps3) but it seemed to blow some good ideas and what must've been an enormous budget.

I have Siege gold and don't recommend it. The grinding is far easier than I expected and you don't get anything but free operators and skins.

I've had it for a month, have everyone/most gun mods unlocked, and could easily buy the next round of dlc operators by the time it comes out.

They do not. I have a sneaking suspicion it's to discourage massive poaching by U.S. buyers since the tanked Canadian Dollar makes quite a few titles significantly cheaper when you factor in the exchange rate.

Can't be that, its been that way since the Cdn dollar was higher/at par.

Yeah even though I already bought and sold NBA 2k I would still consider it one of the top 5 PS+ games on PS4 if it really is a freebie. If you like basketball at all it's amazing, only the career mode script is awful.

If my googling is right, the limit is $150. If I preorder a $60 title would it immediately deduct the cost so I could add the 2nd card? Or should I just stash it in a drawer until my wallet dips below $50?
