    Really not a BA. The games value will plummet after Christmas. I'd say we could see if for sub 30 by February.

    Great BA thanks OP!

    @Rossiman, its gonna be on alot of kids Christmas lists >> this side of Christmas and not February, so with that in mind i deem it a BA like alot of others would on this forum. 33% off, where else is doing it at that price and at this time of year?

    It's a digital download. I don't see how its a BA with no resale value to it. You could nearly get it for this price new from the UK back at launch.

    With all the kids getting it for Christmas, and hating it, I can see a massive amount of trade ins.

    I suppose it may be a bargain for some, I'd personally wait and see if more content is released.

    Buy a physical copy for a bit extra then.

    Digital version of this isn't good value.

    I play it on my PC with my Bro and my other Bro and my Son play it on PS4 . It's not a bad game. It's not as good of a game as Battlefield 4 ,but it's like a Starwars -Cod bastard child with some amazing Starwars sounds and visuals. It's a run and gun game that is fine in small doses . I will probably buy the season pass when it drops in price as there is talk of EA opening the game up to more variety.

    Pc versions are also discounted right now

    starwars.ea.com/starwars/battlefront/buy

    This is only my opinion btw, but don't waste your money on this. Yes, it looks very pretty and sounds good but that's all. There is no substance to the gameplay which looks repetitive, boring and dull.

    Charging 110 euro for a game on release is insane. Of course, the stripped down version was only 60 euro...

    (The following was stolen from reddit)

    I went to a job interview at EA

    The interviewer, after reading my CV, said:

    "I see that this CV was clearly printed on two pages, but I only have one. Where's the other one?"

    "Page two is 19.99$"

    I have to agree with your opinion. It breaks my heart how many people will rush out to buy this on a Star Wars high only to end up with a boring cash cow dominated by the elite players. Those graphics and physics in a single player campaign experience 'could' have been utterly amazing. But that's not how EA rolls and they own Star Wars video game for the next ten years. :(

    If you are going to buy digital... GameDealDaily have it for $29.95 (€27.56)
    http://gamedealdaily.com/playstation-4/star-wars-battlefront-full-game-download/

    In case you are confused...

    Make a US PSN Account (Free of charge)
    https://www.playstation.com/en-ie/explore/playstation-network/why-register/

    Log In to US Account on you PS4

    Redeem code you get from the site on US Account

    Start Download

    Pause Download

    Log Into you usual EU Account

    Resume Download (it will be quicker than downloading from US one)

    Play game on EU account like normal

    It is worth having a US account, as there are huge savings to be made buying digital US codes from the likes of Amazon US and the above site. All games are then playable on your normal PSN account, so you lose nothing.

    I bought it through Xbox Singapore site from 53 Singapore dollars. As I bought Singapore credit a few weeks back with 25% extra Free, the game worked out at about eur25 for me. I don't know why people are hating this game. I'm a big battlefield and cod/destiny player and I love starwars battlefront, can't get enough of it.... As previously mentioned, its a serious bargain through gamedealdaily.com and redeemed through a US PSN account..

    Sold out unfortunately. Was just about to buy it :-(

    Is it a different account to your normal one? Or how do you download it onto your normal account? Eg I have account A, I create account B with us location. When I purchase with account B how is that linked to account A?
    Cheers
