14% Tax? Where the hell do you live?Stevo_the_gamer
Toronto Tax is a **** but free healthcare I guess. Anyways. I know you can get t he regular version, but I am a very dedicated Halo fan, and I assume there are atleast 100 000 dedicated fans aswell that will get this version, since its the ideal halo 3 version to get. but i just feel ripped off that its that expensive compared to america. i think its an estimate, cause Bungie dind't release the price yet

For the purpose of those in this forum, most of them American, he's referring to CAD not USD.

And, yes, this is for the Legendary Edition.  There will be 3 versions of the game.  The first will be the cost of your standard game, the second will be a special edition and cost as much as the normal special edition does ($10 more in the States), and then the Legendary Edition will have a whole bunch of extra crap and cost a ton.

In the States:

Halo 3 $60

Halo 3 SE $70

Halo 3 LE $100

And, yeah, the tax in Canada is a **** That's what socialized health care gets you, you commies!!!!! :wink:

If that were the only version, that would be the epitome of milkage. Good thing, you can buy the normal retail version as well.

Collectors edition is 92 bucks after tax but im ok, when XBOX first released, games were 79.99 and 92 after tax, thats just BS, but now you see games for 69.99 and at futureshop they got 10 bucks cheaper, so its all alright. but t his really makes me sad, i really wanted this, but 171 is asking for tooooo much

In Sweden it's 25%, though we do get free University, meaning students don't need to pay any tuition :)

Same could be said by paying video games. Its just a collectable thing, its not like they are giving you something to wear, just something to have in your room

Sweden is nice, but if you are poor, you are better off dead. But if you are rich, you will have a great life. Example, you pay to get your garbage taken away, thats AWESOME, that means no one has some smelly area cause everyone keeps themselves clean

Nature + no sales tax FTW! Though if it's anything like Oregon, the property taxes make up for the lack of a sales tax.
