Better than the BS price on PSN, they are selling the plain version of the Crew still. I hate such crap tactics, there is no reason to still digitally offer the base game when there is the ultimate set which has all of the DLC included. It's just a cheap way to get more sales from unsuspecting buyers who don't know their way around games and release sku's.

There is a very good reason to keep base versions of games available: what if folks don't want all the extra DLC?

Offering both the vanilla and "Ultimate" is the better business move. The suggestion that people either be forced to buy the whole enchilada or nothing at all is a great way to ensure less people buy the game, not more.
