    so the game just came out in australia a few days ago ive been playing and really enjoying the game but i notice the customization is pretty crap so i go to the online store to check out the buyable costumes and there all pretty badass i then notice that bits are worth more than F****** platinum somehow , seriously $9 for 500 bits? so id need to pay $18 before i can buy any costumes!! > serious madface here guys this is some money grabbing ******** , but my major beef is Australians always get ****ed when it comes to digital content can any1 tell me how mutch 500 bits are worth in u.s or European currency ?

    You get a lot of costumes from completing pursuits, check out the pursuit tab and see the final rewards in each section. I believe pretty much every costume you get in the shop are obtained in game too (with some colour differences).

    500 bits cost 500 microsoft points here.

    Things are more expensive in australia becaues minimum wage there is triple what it is in america.

    Lets see here..

    Based off Microsoft points

    400 points = 5.00 USD
    800 points = 10.00 USD
    1600 points = 20.00 USD

    If there's a suit you really want, check in the Goals menu, it might have the same suit but recolored, save your money.

    I live in NA. I believe it cost 5 dollars for 400 bits on ps3, though I'm not totally sure my girl on ps3 right now can't check, I paid 50 dollars for 5200 bits (free 1200 bits if I just bout 5 dollars at a time) I just spent bits on inventory and saving the other bits until I need them, I think the cosmetics are high in price given its just cosmetics and not armor that means anything.

    But I do think it's messed up you australians get high priced for games. I mean just cuz you live upside down doesn't mean you are dumb.

    Items do go on sale, but keep in mind that you can usually acquire the same items in the game with some work. They're issued as quest rewards and pursuits. I don't think anything in the bits store is 100% exclusive, other than color/pattern at the moment
    Your Challenger won't drive? You're probably in the passenger seat.
    Can't sell/delete an item? Check all of your loadouts, it's likely still equipped.
    Auction house? Why? It'll just render bits purchased lock boxes pointless, and weapons are mostly equal anyway.
    Gear/enemy progression? No thanks, it'll only render 90% of the content trivial when you reach the highest zone.

    bits are 400 for 5.00 here too, but a quarter pounder combo costs around 6.50 :P
