May jump on Animal Crossing then when I get home. Would be nice to know the digital price before hand even though one can assume it will be much more. I know it has appeared on the NA ehop already.

AFAIK eShop tends to charge full RRP, excepts some games prices that went down like Resident Evil, so it'll be £39.99 or €44,99 =/

well i did not get the tarot-card-system. i like the music, the style, but the summoning persona stuff, i could not get into or it was too confusing... dont know if they managed it to make it easier to understand in persona 4.

amazon germany has some amazing deals:

forza horizon for 19euros

halo4 for 19euros

Persona 4 Golden streamlines a lot of the fusion stuff if that's what you mean. If it was your only make issue with 3 then you should for sure check out P4G.

Flubit offered me £26.64 for Fire Emblem, but I think I'll stick with Shopto so I get it quick.

£25.11. Very tempted to bite now.

hey there,

is persona golden really that good?
the best price for it is on play-asia around 25€, or is there something cheaper?
i kinda did not get the gameplay in persona 3, so does that mean i cant click to it? would give the series another try on vita.

also searching for gravity rush. cant find it for less than 30€?

If you like your very typical anime type characters, then sure. Kanji is a cool character though. I definitely find this game heavily overrated by others though (even by those who vote it best PS2 game originally, pft, no).

Just to add my experience, I don't really like anime and I loved Persona 4 Golden.

In my opinion, this game is not overrated and is truly great.

Gah, this "artbook" GAME is apparently sending out (with my £32.99 copy) better be worth it...

P.S. GAME dispatched it today...which surprised me a lot as the last time I pre-ordered something from them it was Wednesday.

Weird thing is despite getting a 3DS XL just for the game I'm not in a huge rush over it (its weird how life can be like that).
 
I picked up Fire Emblem from game for £25 with some reward points. I also ordered it from Zavvi prior for £26 but they didn't let me cancel :(

Might trade it in or something,

Just been notified that my Fire Emblem has been dispatched. It would be epic if it arrived tomorrow.

I don't know where you preorder it from, but I got a dispatch notification a 8am yesterday (tuesday), I preordered it from GAME, that although it wasn't the cheapest place for it, the artbook sold me on it.

Hopefully arrives today, can't wait!

Shopto sent my pre-order out today also.

Not going to complain getting a game i've been waiting for a couple of days early =D
 
Got a 10% discount voucher for Zavvi. Great, I thought. Tried to order a game, I get a weird page, my payment goes through, yet I do not receive order confirmation.

Absolutely through with Zavvi. This on top of me still waiting on a refund of an order I canceled over a week ago is just ridiculous. Doesn't help that their support is absolute trash.

Yeah! I was gonna preorder from GAME today and then I noticed they were no longer offering the art book. :( Must have ran out. So I went with ShopTo.

----

Zavvi emailed me a mystery discount code. It's like 5-6%. Ahh well, if anyone wants it they're welcome to it. I've also got a 10% one still I think.
 
So I've got 2 Zavvi discount codes to give:

One 10% Off coupon

One Mystery Discount that goes from 5% to 20%.

If anybody wants either (or both) of them, let me know.
 
I ordered Bioshock Infinite from Flubit for £25.94, which arrived today from...Dixons.

I'm not sure how they do it, but the prices are good and delivery is reasonable, so a thumbs up from me.

Amazing, I was waiting to hear some opinions from people that have actually had stuff arrive. I've got XCOM on 360 waiting if I want it for £15.50, so I might go ahead!

Here is an article that explains: http://thenextweb.com/uk/2011/07/12/flubit-the-5k-side-project-that-became-a-4m-startup/

With Flubit, users say what they want to buy, Flubit groups these users together by product type, and the relevant retailers are automatically informed. This allows retailers to sell in volume (at a discount) to targeted, online consumers. Flubit takes from 2.5%-6% in commission.

Basically your item could arrive by any retailer that sells that product type.
 
My Zavvi Fire Emblem preorder got dispatched.

I know: several things (Zavvi, preorder, ...) wrong to many people in that sentence. Just wanted to let you know they started sending Fire Emblem out.

Damn, haha. Just got my Special Edition and it's way bigger than I thought it would be. So much for me thinking it was a bullshit retailer-exclusive edition. Not too shabby at all. And to think that it's cheaper than the regular edition. I guess they were taking up too much space in the stock.

Assassin's Creed 3 back in stock @ zavvi, for £14.99

At this point it's better to simply wait for the King Washington edition to go down in price, imo.
 
Well no FE for me...ah well.

As for Flubit. I decided to try and see if they could do an offer on eShop money (as I've seen people get XBL Gold through them). Rejected for being a prohibited item (I guess it counts as a downloadable item...I'd understand if it said gift cards were prohibited). I'm tempted to try the XBL Gold now to see if that is really prohibited or not.
 
I just got a dispatch notice from Flubit for Fire Emblem! It says estimated 22nd-25th but I'm not sure why it would take that long. Maybe it's from Tesco, since Luigi's Mansion 2 took a good few days to make it through the postal system. Then again it took 3 days to process my order whereas this has been sent before the street date.

Agh I just want Fire Emblem now.
 
Flubit didn't save me as much as I've seen in here when asking them to beat the Amazon price of £30 for Soul Sacrifice, but £26.73 isn't bad so I ordered it.

Never heard of Fireworks Merchant Limited before, but that's who Flubit are using for my 2 orders with them so far.

Huh. Odd, they offered me a discount on a game.co.uk £25 eShop card. (They offered £21.68 in case you're wondering).

I'm pretty tempted to give that offer a try...

I've had no response at all for my Two Worlds 2: Royal Edition request, so you did better than me.

Perhaps they thought they were doing me a favour...

Also game.co.uk, talk about personalised. Maybe its because I went for the £15 Zelda one instead...I'll try again with a generic...

Then again looking at the site it has some different text implying it might be due to how limited the item is (also wouldn't be surprised if GAME completely lacked stock).

HA!!

It choked once and said it needed a zip code. I tried again and voila order placed.

And I even watched the CGR review first (right after posting it here) before ordering it.

Still, not trying this until someone else can confirm it works, since it's showing as £29.99 at checkout for me as well.

A question for y'all: I want to order Dark Arisen from Asda, but I need to know if they take immediate payment for pre-orders or if they wait till the game is shipped before taking payment. I couldn't find anything in the website's Help section about their policy regarding this. My thanks to anyone who can answer. Read the previous page, already answered. Thanks anyway, will pass.

They gave me a deal for the velvet goty edition. Not bought it yet, but it was 14% off from Amazon.

Ordered Dragons Dogma for £11 thanks to Flubit giving me a deal on Asdas £13 pre-order.
