How come the US version does not contain God of War I & II, but the european version does? Why can't they simply bundle that into the US version as well? Why make us spend the extra $40?

I am a loyal God of War fan who bought the original GoW I & II for the PS2 at full price, and now I am pissed off at this move!

Umm, first of all their version will probably cost more. Also be happy, they have to pay in Euros, so basically take what you pay and double it, and video games in general are just way more expensive there. I've seen like 2 or 3 year old games going for 70 euros.
