Dude frak sony. Why the frak are they doing this. Its not helping them at all. HOME is never gonna be released. Theres no in game XBM till like the end of this year. Now taxes on the frakking PSN store. Sony said this will be the year for the PS3. I say this will be the year for the PS3 to rip you off.

the tax was always added into the price you would see
so when you got a game for 9.99 the final price was 9.99
now they are showing where the tax is add
the prob. with that is that the price with added tax is now the purchase price before tax so they just decided to charge more for the same damned content when the purchase price should have been 9.42 + tax for the orig. total of 9.99
damn you sony and your price gouging

I don't even plan on buying them. They want to wait about a month after the XBOX got them and 5 days before GTA wtf! I'm starting to get a little bored with CoD as it is and I already paid 60 bones for it. I don't want to spend 10 more when I doubt I will play it as much soon.

What rate is the Tax? IT can't be FLAT for everyone, because different areas have different tax rates. Unless it's a new use tax or something for internet purchases, there should not be a tax.

Yeah Jsamp is right. How many people actually bought the maps compared to the 360. Even tho the 360 has more CoD4 Owners i bet they got ALOT of money from the maps. Sony probably made what like 1/8 of what xbox made. Just like Jsamp mentioned with GTA4. Alot of people that play CoD are gonna start playing GTA4. So unless they have 10 bucks to waste on the maps then I dont see why they would need to buy it. Another smart move by sony. Sometimes I just wonder what goes on through their heads.

Nothing and that is the problem.

Im starting to agree with what people are saying about CoD and GTA4. Ive even contemplated buying GTA4 myself now as all these small things are beggining to mount up against CoD.
I find the worst things about CoD at the moment is the ammount of glitches and cheaters not being fixed. F*CK extra content, get your game sorted first!
I think i will go and buy GTA4 even though i said i wouldnt, it wont be a waste because my gf likes these games too.

if she likes GTA then she's a keeper.

With how the M$ store works, you pay the local tax when you buy the points card or points on-line, so you don't pay it again when you pay points for the game.

Exactlly & what about States that have no SALES TAX such as OREGON, they have no sales tax
***** Ok so i called Sony & they said there have always been taxes & its government regulated, Also i went through my entire purchase history & confirmed i did get charged tax on a couple things but a lot of stuff i did not get charged tax such as PAIN-POKER & MK2.
So now im confused-why am i being charged taxes for sum things & havn't for others???????
