I couldn't believe I had to purchase the GoW controller separately after opening the bundle and realizing it came with the basic white. Everyone has to milk us for every little detail, feature or variation of their products these days.

With all due respect, they're not doing anything unethical. If you're willing to pay for exactly the same product functionally with some aesthetic changes, it makes total sense to charge you for it.

You're willing to pay for every little detail and variation.

You don't have to purchase it. Just use a normal controller.

You missed the point. I was disappointed that my GoW bundle came with a normal controller when, in the past, the featured controller has been included with the bundle. I was going to buy a second controller anyway.

Never said they're being unethical. And of course a business has the goal of profit. Just stinks that every company has adapted this habit of charging extra for every little detail they can.

My bad, looks like I did.

Still though, we all live in a global economy predicated and hinged on year on year growth, we're just living downstream from that.
