I though you also get the DLC map packs with the season passes?
Though my price might be completely wrong there. I'm honestly going solely by what IGN said at the end of their review.
The Season Pass gives you golden skins for two guns, a few extra tonics, Clash in the Clouds ($5), Burial At Sea Episode 1 ($15) and Burial At Sea Episode 2 (price TBA).
Here's the kicker: you're right, the early interviews did price BAS1 at $5, I remember that as well because I was wondering how they were going to cover the shortfall of $5 and still claim there was a "savings"; then the lightbulbs got ahold of a calculator and realized they had to do something before the veritable shitstorm of refund demands would come in, which they would have had to honor because the Season Pass description would have been undeniable evidence it was false advertising, so...
They raised the price by $10.
I enjoyed the game despite how nonsensical the ending was, but shit like this just makes my blood boil.
