Sorry folks this is ridiculous. Even in disk format this is still absurd.

I agree it is, they are doing the new norm and combining the game and season pass. I can only wonder how much the season pass for it is worth vs what their charging.

It's the deluxe edition with season pass. Just buy the game itself at the regular price.

I've heard this about other games too like Star Wars Battlefront. The Season Pass puts the whole package at around $100. Seems a trend.

Yeah, what you have to pay for games really sucks. For North America though $110 bucks for a video game that can't even be resold is obscene.

It is the deluxe edition though. The normal edition is still standard price.

Digital games should be cheaper than physical copies anyway.  But a lot of times, they're not.  I can'f figure that out.

I agree with you Cary. There's nothing physical, which should cut down on the cost of production a lot. Why that isn't passed along to the consumer I do not know.

Also at the end of it all you don't actually own anything. There's nothing to resell or pass on once you've finished the game. Just a bunch of code taking up space a hard drive.

You should know by now that nothing gets "passed on to the consumer" unless it's either real or imagined expenses. :) But I agree, digital should be cheaper. That's why they're trying to push it, right, because it's cheaper for them?

That has to be a new thing because I think Mortal Kombat was the same price with Season Pass. All the more reason to wait a bit for price drops. Of course this was for a physical copy. Digital that price is insane. You would think you'd get some kind of break because of the lack of packaging and other goodies that come with phyical copies.
