Its obviously that you are bitching and most certainly moaning. Just sell your current Xbone and buy one from the US.

i dont think it matters where you buy the xbox its where the ps store connects to your internet and reads your ip address saying that your not in the us, to change your ip address or hide it you can use a proxy server to make you seem as if your in the us, to do this simply open up a new window and search for proxy server and find a proxy server code, as soon as u have done this go to your xbox settings and go to advanced and then in the proxy server box put the code that you,ve just foiund, and test your connection, some times it doesnt work so just keep going through a list of proxy server codess until you find one that eventually works, sounds complicated but its actually pretty easy

 

ATTENTION; Dont abide by this scan, USE A PROXY SERVER, save urself alot a munny

Couldn't you buy from a US online retailer?

Or would that not work due to region lock?

But you get "free" health care.

 

That's the trade-off. Higher prices for everything to pay for utopia.

Free health care? Not sure who told you this, but thats a flatout lie dude. First 300 euro's is on your own risk. Anything above is free. So if you get a operation that costs 18.000, you still have to pay a freakin 300 yourself.

It's a shame, but what do you expect, you purchased the ONE console that's american made

Sony has been doing the same sh*t for years.

Hell, I cant use my current credit card because it isnt from the same country as my PSN. Even if you use paypal.

 

And OP, welcome to the rest of the world.

It's called a co-pay. Even if you have insurance and don't pay for it you still pay the co-pay. The fact that everuthing after that is free is the point that's being made. No matter what, the most you pay is 300 and everything after that is payed for in tax dollars

I ordered my copy of GTA 5 from walmart.com and got it on the day it was released. Walmart was offering free shipping on pre-orders. I still have the shipping invoice.

 

GTA 5 game: $58.96

sales tax: $4.86

TOTAL: $63.82

Is that based on income? Does someone who earns less than 5000 Euros per year still have to pay the 300?

Dudette...

 

Given how many people chide America for not joining the rest of the "civilized" western societies and not having "free" health care...but then bitch and moan about the higher costs they pay for fuel and entertainment...I'm not seeing a problem.

 

And free is in quotes, cause you're paying for it in other ways. Also utopia doesn't exist.

digital versions of games on the ps3 anyways, pale in comparison to the pysical versions- longer loading times, frame rate drops, stuttering and you cant sell them on or exchange etc; and waiting hours and hours to download the game and then a few more installing f*ck that sh*t.

Well I'm american, so I have my own policy. When you have your own policy, usually the type of coverage you have dictates your co-pay. I know countries where you're given coverage have a co-pay, I just don't know what information dictates that. I doubt it would be income though because of the advantage of working off the books.

GTA Master 007

$70 in my country for a physical or digital copy including tax and also midnight launch if you prefer the minute it releases - 7 hours ahead of america. Ain't that bad for a third world country.

Universal healthcare,called NHS in Britain and Obamacare in the United States,is one of the best ideas human beings have ever come up with.

 

"The National Health Service (NHS) is the publicly funded healthcare system for England. It is the largest and the oldest single-payer healthcare system in the world. Primarily funded through the general taxation system, the system provides healthcare to every legal resident in the United Kingdom, with most services free at the point of use."

Install to an external hard drive. That'll silve most of not all of those problems. Personally, I DL all my games straight to a 1 terabyte WD Passport and never had these issues. When I ran Gta v on disc, I had a lot of texture pop. Installing to the external HD solved it whereas installing it to the console only stopped some of it.

For the record, it's not really OBAMAcare. All Obama did was rehash the healthcare system that Nixon wanted to implode R but with more restrictions. And how is "OBAMAcare" one of the best things? Most can't afford it and then you can get fined for not having it.

Yeah, Obamacare isn't really that good, compared to just about any West European country. I think Holland has the best in the world, followed by some other nearby countries. Also, Scandinavia also has a good system, but that involves major amounts of taxes IIRC

Your comment is classic conservative propaganda. Most,if not all,Americans can afford Obamacare.

 

How is it one of the best things? You can't see that making sure that everyone in your country has access to affordable health care is a good thing?

 

Britain has had universal healthcare(Obamacare) since 1948.

 

Conservatives are all about 'freedom'. Well there's not much freedom to be had when you're sick and dyeing in some alley because Conservatives have cut all the social programs.
