Destiny: The Taken King, Price in Australia & why it does not make sense
There is lots of talk going around that The Taken King in $70, this is also what my local Eb Games store has told me. One, the exchange rates don't match up seeing it jumped up to nearly double the price of $40 which is the price in the US. Secondly, for Destiny players with the two expansions, there is supposed to be some type of bonus so you can buy The Taken King separately to save some money, now thats the problem for australia because being $70 for a separate version we may aswell trade in our game & buy the whole pack, well thats what I thought I would do until I see a price in another store. So I can decide to spend $70 on just The Taken King or I can trade in my old Destiny game (probably get $10 for it) & buy The Taken King with the original destiny & both expansions included for $80 in this other store. Is it me or is it sounding like Destiny, Expanion I & Expansion II are worth $10 all together. Mind you I only had one of the expansions but even if I had both it would still be a better buy considering together they don't seem to be $10. Bungie, Please respond. Love from Straya. P.S. DO YOU EVEN MATH

Edited by Conflict1413: 10/2/2015 8:15:34 AMIt's a joke. where in the world do they justify 70 dollars for dlc I can get a whole new set for 80 with the taken king and it still does not justify the 70 price tag. well played bungie complete balls up I'm trading destiny in tomorrow you will never get another cent from me . failed logic 101 buy a dlc for the price of an entirely new game Joke! exactly 79 dollars from jbhifi

The answer is simple mate. Use the $70 (plus $10 trade if you like) and buy one of the new release titles that have come out or are coming out soon. Pretty certain that you will be able to buy the non collectors edition of halo 5 for less than $70 on release if you shop around. I loved this game (from beta) it had so much potential and it almost appears that taken king will fix alot of my current complaints with destiny. But I honestly can't believe the cost to buy the expansion and would rather spend my money on another game which I haven't had the chance to play (and grind repeatedly through the same levels over and over again) Maybe I'll pick up destiny in another 6 months or so if the price is right. . . .
