Nah, it'll be fine. Sure they'll charge us 299 (and $299 in the US), sure it'll be region-locked, but other than the usual bullshit I think it's gonna be okay.
"We'll let the retailers decide the price"
"You mean the greedy ass gaming retailers in Britain who nearly went out of business because they were so obsessed with selling high and buying low?"
"Yeah, those ones!"
But you both know that this is exactly what is gonna happen, right? They will not announce a price in Europe. The "retailers set the price" thing is how they do things now in Europe.
I'll slap everyone's virtual face if they are outraged when NoE says "no price, ask retailers!" because we all should know better by now.
