Standard response: Is this sale on internationally?

Hopefully this info starts being included in the articles when they are first posted.

App store sales are always international, no need to specify. Apple doesn't allow different prices in different regions. When a developer sets the price of the app, they only set the price Tier, which equates to $0, $0.99, $1.99 etc in the US and Canada, and the equivalents everywhere else. There's no option to charge $0.99 in the US and $6.99 elsewhere.

Not necessarily the case, Electronic Arts trades under the name Electronic Arts Nederland B.V. in a number of iTunes stores around the world and quite often we do not see US app sale prices.

EA games definitely not on sale in the UK - even the scrabble icon is different as it's sold by EA Nederland BV.

Much as I love Macrumors, it is very US centric. I thought there war queues outside the apple stores yesterday, not lines :rolleyes:
