Titanfall for Xbox One Priced 10€ Above Xbox 360 on European Origin Store and Other Oddities

Next generation pricing already looks quite messy, but with Titanfall it’s even a bit messier than the usual, with Origin offering the game at a different price point between the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One versions of the game, at least in Europe.

I wonder if this is just Activision or if its $10 more for the power of the cloud(dedicated servers)?

Unicron3938d ago

But I heard the 360 version uses "teh powah of teh clowd" too!

GameCents3938d ago

Except that EA is publishing this, not Activision.

GameCents3937d ago

Somebody disagrees, of course.

Gridloc3937d ago

My bad. I forgot EA even existed...

what the hell is IVA, for sure it's not VAT

MasterCornholio3937d ago (Edited 3937d ago )

IVA means Impuesto Valor Añadido

Which in english translates to

Value Added Tax which is the same as VAT.

Edit: Live is right IVA is for Spain.

PS: I live in Spain so i know how taxes work here.

zme-ul3937d ago (Edited 3937d ago )

but the numbers do not make sense, knowing VAT in Spain is 21%

the base price is 59.99 USD, convert that in Euros and you get 46.63 Euros, add 21% VAT and you get 56.42 Euro (including VAT)

nowhere near those listings of 69.90 Euros (VAT included), nor even close to the 59.90 (VAT included)

Livewiire3938d ago

IVA is the Spanish equivalent of VAT.

zme-ul3938d ago

VAT in Spain is 21%, doesn't even comes close to the price listed

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad588d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g587d ago (Edited 587d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

An ode to Titanfall: The last twitch shooter I'll probably ever enjoy

Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."

Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.

littletad868d ago

This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.

Ethereal866d ago

I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.

Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
