Hm, yeah. My problem is that I already know the story and without replay value I will be bored. Probably waiting for the 3DS game. Avatars should be awesome gameplay wise

Mine got cancelled too. It seemed too good to be true but at least we tried.

Who could have seen this coming from such a great company?

Not actually that important
You'll probably never find it for that price ever again.
It has been @£15 a couple of times, that's it.

Got the email too, "Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Collectors Edition (Game Exclusive)", "Sorry we've never sold that before, ever!"
To be fair, that statement would be completely true about the Mass Effect 3 N7 Collector's Edition (Game Exclusive).
Got the email too

Has anyone heard what shopto are going to be selling FFXIII-2 for on Sunday? I got this in an email...
... so I'm unsure. £0.48 and I might bite. Presumably it'll be £15, worth keeping an eye out anyway.

Okay, just stumble into this...
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00623EB86/
...stores 12 games.
Might go this way.
Did you get it in the end? The Amazon reviews don't look too good, I need a case that can store the more than 5 or so games in them, this one looked nice but the reviews are putting me off.

No did not go for it. Decided to wait a bit in hope that something better comes out. I really just want something to hold the games, so a console/game case is a bit big.

I ended up getting it as I wanted one that could hold a lot of games but I really can't recommend it. The reviews about the pouch on the back for the Vita itself are accurate, with having to slide it in at an angle. Doesn't really protect the thumbsticks much either, although facing the middle they have the games + cables on it, but I'm not really confident of it providing much protection.
Same for me really, it's a bit annoying removing/inserting them from the cases.
Cheers, will definitely give it a miss.
Hopefully something better comes out, wouldn't mind something like the DS carts case from the US Club Nintendo rewards.
Well it is their first indiscretion, I'm sure all is forgiv...... oh wait.

lol.
Anyway I swang past Gamestation today and holy hell is that place barren. Still, they had so many deals on I was overwhelmed. Picked up Killzone 2 for a friend for 45p. Hoping I can get him to play online with me.
But there were so many great deals there guys. I definately reccommend you go there to see what's on offer.
I might go back tommorow and pick up Resonance of Fate for £7.
My GAME haul. £1.98 each, except Stranglehold which was £1.
Also got Link's Crossbow Training for £1 at another GAME, and got Advance Wars: Dark Conflict coming in the post for £1.
Some good deals I passed on:
Ghost Trick for £8 in GAME (just bought on iOS for £7)
Ace Attorney 4: Apollo Justice for £8 in Gamestation
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption for £2 in GAME (Argh! Got it for £10 in an earlier "deal")
Resident Evil Zero on Wii for £8 in GAME
Deathsmiles for £5 in GAME
Wario Ware DIY in Gamestation for £5
Good luck everyone.

Meh my Game and Gamestation were pretty bare
I got Ridge Racer 3D for £6.98
Fallout 3 for £1.98
and that was it.
Saw Wii Music at £4.98, Yakuza 4 and LA Noire both at £7.98 and Uncharted 3 for £19.98.
Would've snapped up Disaster Day of Crisis at £1.98 if I didn't already have it.
Get Fit with Mel B for £0.48 made me smile. I should've tweeted her a pic of it!

Used the last of my credit to get:
HOTD: Overkill Extended Cut - £8
Advance Wars: DC - £1
Dead Space 2 - £5
Ghost Recon 3ds - £8
LA Noire - £8
Also got Gears 3 for £8 after using the Gameplay voucher. Pretty good haul but I do feel for the staff, a lot of my good mates work for the group'.

Went into game before, there wasn't any DS or PSP games in the baskets that had the £2 games. I wish I had more of a look around though, I would have loved Ghost Trick for a decent price.
Anyway, got Dark Sector, Aliens vs Predator, Alpha Protocol, R* Table Tennis and Pikmin for just under a tenner, so I'm pretty happy.
On an unrelated note, I had a bit of a scare when trying to get Mass Effect 3 in hmv. I was using some love2shop vouchers and the designs weren't on the board behind the counter, had the sickening thought that my mum had got a batch of counterfeits. He did eventually accept it but I'm still a little worried, the design isn't the same and it doens't have the same foil sticker.

I'm going to switch a preorder from Zavvi to thehut with the THC3 coupon, so I just made an account there. However, the code isn't working. Is it a one use code, or might it be cause I just registered there?
Such non-personal codes normally don't work on preorders. Should have mentioned that.

My Gamestation was pretty good. I think they had only priced up stuff yesterday as I arrived at opening and the Wii shelf was taken away for them to scan the hundreds of games through (suggesting they only finished the other systems the day before).
Lots I passed on (to be honest most of what I did buy is play it out of curiosity and the prices they were at will be acceptable losses) but anyway, some random (hopefully new) highlights are:
Solatortabo: The Red Hunter £12.97
Madworld 49p (21p profit if you trade to CeX...not even enough to get the Beano anymore...could always get the i instead)
Hotel Dusk, Last Window, Ace Attorney franchise games were £7.98
Brain Training, Sight Training etc £1.98
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn £7.98 (btw, did anyone get their £5 Amazon copies in the end? that glitch was about 4 months back...)
One I can't remember but Dragon Quest games were a good price. Also £7.98 IIRC
Didn't really look at the other systems.
Come to think it I really should have signed up for that reward card they pushed on me (were also adamant they would still be standing) then used my £1 credit to buy Disaster off their website (which combined with GAME credit doing the same will pay bus fares for me to go to CeX to sell them...
)

of course I'd hold onto them until I'm heading that way or CeX have something to trade against

How do you do that 'quote to reveal' thing? I have 10% off codes for The Hut and Zavvi.

Thanks! Quote to reveal codes : )

Actually, I just noticed it says 'unique' codes, so maybe they only work with my own account?

The zavvi code applied fine at the checkout, but i didn't take it further as FF13 was "delivery within a month." Tagged it alongside BINARY DOMAIN YOU GUYS.
Thanks very much, just used this now to buy Portal 2 and Rayman Origins
I'll take the Zavvi one, thanks
Edit: I can't see the code.. am I doing something wrong?
Edit 2: Never mind, I got it.
I didn't realize the codes are in the actual quote.. lol
I want to order to Infamous 2, but it's says dispatch within in a month.. same goes for a lot of games at Zavvi and The Hut... what going on with that? They don't have stock? I don't want to place an order and miss a great deal on another website.. plus the last time (and first) time I ordered from Zavvi, they charged my credit card after a few hours, not when my order dispatched like their site is saying

Most game stores u won't find the points in because people are lying. It was only the points in boxes on sale. Most stores haven't had them for over a year. Cos we went to codes on ur receipt.
Was in one in Limerick two days ago. Yeah they had reduced most of their preorder stuff and some new stuff. No deals on hardware tho. Could have changed since
