Easily worth that price.

The reason it got hated on so much is because the lack of content and crap career mode. But since launch they've been several free updates including players, courses and game modes.

As a simcade golf game the gameplay itself is great, also many may dislike it but I love the commentary.

People say The Golf Club is better but besides being way more sim the rest of that game just feels incredibly unpolished in almost every way.

this is hot but if it's dropped in price so much already I'm hoping it comes on ea access.

Need for speed is also on sale. Deluxe is £20. I can't see what the standard is because I own it.

Only $16 on the Canadian store

£6.94 on South African store

Are you including 5% tax on these prices mate? Canada always charges the extra 5%.

Some of these games

Need for speed
Tiger woods
Fifa

Etc

Boring now

will be in ea access within the month probably

would get it but I reckon it'll be in the vault within 2months.

South Africa £7, Yes please!

Worked out at £8.34 on Canadian store for me $16 plus $0.80 (I presume tax). Still a snip at that price.

So how do you buy it from the Canadian store?

I have heard that Madden 16 will be next to go in the Access Vault followed by this game.

From someone that works at EA?

Let's just say it's from a trusted source and leave it at that. :laughing:

Which VPN are you guys using for purchasing from South Africa?

I was given that information several weeks ago to be fair when I complained to that person about the lack of anything new in the Vault since last Autumn.

Was also posted on here 5 days ago :smiley:

I've never paid 12%. Paid $16.80 for this game this morning and that's.... 5% :smiley:

Alberta? Sure I've used that in the past.

still had Columbia set up £9 from there, went through fine

I would have otherwise bought this now because it is actually a lot better than it was when it launched, and definitely worth this price now.

Used all the trial on it, but like many got 12 months EA access late last year when the codes were going on ebay for like £12. It'll certainly be in the vault long before that runs out so haven't bitten but a good deal for those without EA access.

It's not even worth £7.99. Awful game.

It's not even worth £7.99. Awful game

by the time you buy gift cards in the relevant country you may be as well buying it from UK store at 12 quid?

Heat for the price but I agree that this will be next on EA Access (after Madden).

:-) Cheers!

Canada has a federal government and two types of sales tax, GST and HST. GST is applied at federal level and remains at 5% whereas HST is charged at provincial level and varies throughout the country. HST is always charged in addition to GST if it applies at all.

every day is a school day - I thought credit cards / paypal etc were normally blocked so only way was to buy points / gift cards to get the games from other countries

No. Just need a Vpn and a credit card or the revolut ""card".
I used to buy the gift cards until I read this thread. http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/xbox-one-buying-from-colombia-guide-works-for-regions-2326463?p=27280465
Just buy direct now using vypr :smiley:

Thanks, but this doesn't help to dispel the 5% tax rate mentioned in an earlier comment.

Some of the good folks out there may be unaware that the Canadian Xbox store list all their prices excluding tax which is applied at a rate of 12% for all digital purchases at checkout.

Here is a copy of my receipt for Shadow of Mordor, (where incidentally the tax is helpfully identified as good old VAT! :smile:)
