You know what's really funny?

If SH4 had been released already in 1.5 status and with its price also already increased in those 10$, nobody would be complaining about that :hmm:

Your right!!!

I would have paid $60.00 for the game almost 2 years ago (paid 50.00 March 2007). In doing so I would not have scratched my head to understand why an American Campaign simulation game was released with only Metric measurements!! It's still a stretch to me to call them "Imperial"; in the U.S. we don't, and never have (least ways not since we booted the British). Their called "U.S. Customary Units".

This was just one small aspect of the too early release for Ubi. And why did they do it? To make a buck!! To see a return on their advertisement dollor, that had promoted the game for months throughout 2006. Making a profit is fine with me, but don't take advantage of the consumer's good nature by selling an unfinished product and draging out the corrections for the next 2 years. With some of them costing extra!!
