They changed mine from pre-order to order yesterday and its product page says it's in stock now, so they should be shipping them today.

Mine says complete now, no tracking number, but it was processing this morning, so I think that means they shipped it =D

Yep, got the confirmation email, I hope it will arrive tomorrow.
 
Cheapest place to get The Last Guardian? I have a US PSN account, so willing to look at deals involving that, but I'm dealing in UK pounds, so probably screwed by exchange-rate. :(
 
Ive just wiped the dust of my Vita and realised i really need to get a memmory card for it, are they any good prices nowadays?

I had a nosy, and if you buy some cheap Canadian PSN cards, then it works out at a couple of quid cheaper than the UK price. But not really worth the effort for just a couple of quid.

It fluctuates a lot however its no longer worth just buying digital for US or CA releases because of the poor exchange rates (for a long time a full price game here was £55 and it was £37 or so from CA or NA stores) , however what is worthwhile is when they have their sales so I would still recommend a new PS4 user to get an NA and CA account and keep an eye on what the offers are for each week

Just picking a game at Random of the offers this week (links will not work if your logged in but will if your not)

Borderlands the Handsome collection

UK store £45
https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...A01446_00-BORDERLANDSHDCOL?EMCID=GM300024_exc

NA store $25.79 (about £20.50)
https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...PlayStation+-+Brand+-+UK&EMCID=GM300000_store

CA store $30.09 (about £17.97)
https://store.playstation.com/#!/en...PlayStation+-+Brand+-+UK&EMCID=GM300000_store

So its about £2.50 cheaper to buy if from the CA store than the US , and both are £20+ cheaper than the UK store.
 
Hi GAF, I'm finally taking the plunge and purchasing a PS4 (hopefully tomorrow)
I'm in the market for a PS4 (basic, not pro), FFXV and The Last Guardian - I am in the UK.

Anyone able to direct me where I can get cheap deals for the above? Would be super grateful :)

For those games specifically, then yeah the GAME deal is somewhat difficult to beat for value, particularly because of the doubled storage space.

If you don't care so much for the latter, then my recommendation would be to pick up a bundle at £229.99, then use Tesco to pick up Final Fantasy XV for £39.42, and grab The Last Guardian for £44.00 (assuming it doesn't bump up after release), for a total of £313.41 - so less than £14 more than the limited edition bundle. You'd also have 3-4 games from the get go, so in case the hype doesn't work out you might have a few pleasant things to try on the side.

Some bundle options:
Overwatch + Ratchet & Clank
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (without the MW remaster) + Fallout 4
Uncharted 4 + Fallout 4 - This one's showing an error for me at the moment, I admit
 
I honestly can't figure out when TLG is meant to come out. Some sites say the 6th, others say the 9th. Playstation Europe is tweeting how TLG is finally here and retweeting people who have already got it.

TGC who are usually the deliver as soon as they have it types still have "Awaiting Stock" on my order. Really weird.

SwissGAF: some decent deals, only valid today

Thegamecollection sent my FFXV on 28.11. and still no dice. In Finland but still, normally five days from UK.

I'm shaking and stuttering in anger. Should switch to all digital but am too cheap.
 
Got my copy of TLG from shopto =) yey.

I though the mini soundtrack would be another cd, but no.
 
TGC have just dispatched my TLG, so it'll probably be here for release which is fine.

I guess either they got in trouble or their website makeover is more than just aesthetic because usually I receive a game a few days before release from them.

Same "problem" here. Well almost, Base.com sent mine 29.11. and hasn't arrived yet. Usually 5-6 working days is the normal. Ah well, maybe the Pro patch is getting closer..

Very nice! I live in central Europe, so i probably won't get my order before monday. It's a shame they didn't ship it on tuesday, i'd have a good chance of getting it by tomorrow then, but now it's unlikely. I knew about the mini soundtrack being digital, because Amazon.com also had it as a pre-order bonus and it was listed as such there.

Yep, it's been a shit year to have this as our currency. But it's probably been a real treat for buying from Euro countries. I got a Revolut card this year, which eliminates exchange fees, so that's helped a bit. Get the app, top it up, and you're away. Worth checking out for anyone that uses foreign currencies.
 
I know it's not deal related but if I sell something to CEX can I have them pay the money into my bank account in-store via card or can they only give me cash?

yes but not via card
they use fps but used to use bacs
you sign up to a web account and put your bank details in then the person in store use your email to link you to the online account
the money should transfer next business day if they remember to process it
 
Is it just me or does it seem like Paper Mario Color Splash is out of stock almost everywhere (at least at a decent price)? None of the major online stores have it (base, TGC, Zavvi, ...). Was the game severely understocked? I hope it is soon going to be back in stock...

That date was also the end of U.K. Black Friday deals. Much of the standard delivery stuff has been bogged down... apparently.

You can but I think you need to have an online account linked to your bank account first. I have a friend who works there and he sorted me out with that in store, so not sure if the staff will do it for everyone.

I had an Amazon delivery sent out on 30/11 (from the UK to the UK, in this case), and it hasn't arrived. Although that might be another issue, since the Royal Mail website doesn't recognise the tracking info either.

(I have since contacted them and got a redispatch/refund, so I've no complaints ultimately, but I am rather curious about what happened on the interim!)
 
The price is really tempting, but the game is 44gb and there is that thread about a 29gb patch... 73gb for one game is too much for me lol.
