Weekend Impulse Buys!

December 11, 2008 1:29:14 PM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums

Everyone likes a sale, right?  Well from December 11th to December  14th we have a HUGE sale going on in the Impulse Store!

It’s a chance to pickup some great games and software at an incredible discount.  Don’t forget you can also purchase a gift for someone else, and they can download via Impulse, and do not have to wait for a package to arrive.

Not to criticize on a so good offer, but how come that all 3.99$ games became automatically 3.99€ (written like this 2.99 3.99€)?

Yeah, I don't like that offer, because it's more expensive in Euros.

Same in GBP - $3.99 becomes "$2.66 £3.99" and $9.99 becomes "$6.65 £9.99".

Have they got the $/£ values the wrong way around?

It's fixed. I shall pick up Space Rangers 2 I think, that's a great deal.

I already own World of Goo, and would strongly recommend it to everyone. Best game of 2008.

I can't check now due to latency on the report of my credit card but I think that games was charged with the correct price even if wrongly displayed. Or at least is what I hope. Would be good and official word on that.

Yes, for these sale items (AFAIK none of them have localized prices) it's just the wrong symbol being displayed; they will be charged at that amount in USD. It's on the list to fix ASAP.

I bought all the $4 games. I mean those 3 games @ $4 cost me $12. If they weren't on sale they would cost $80! What's not to love!?!?

It ended up pricing it as £2.60 for me, which would be correct at the current exchange rates (damn failing currency), so I think it must be localizing the price correctly? Either that or it's actually charging me in dollars and that's just there for reference.

Either way it's a great deal and I'm enjoying Space Rangers.

Space Rangers 2 is an *amazing* game.

A must buy, in my opinion.

This is the correct case. The order is always made in USD.
