Is this automatically the Special Edition? Ah there is an official Collector's Edition with a figurine and there is also supposed to be a day-1 edition with the other bonus things but the figurine. So I guess this will be the regular day-1 edition then. Which will include "Art of Xillia" booklet and a special music selection CD.



Haven't received my game.co.uk Tales of Graces F ("day 1 edition" hopefully) yet, but what the hell, I can always cancel it later. Ordered.

The Tales of Xillia collector's edition (with figurine) can only be bought from Namco's own site, I think.
 
Tales of Xillia and One Piece 2 both available for £31.48 each with that code.

Managed to get the original One Piece for about £22 last year on thehut for preorder... but I'll take the new one at that price for the moment anyways.

One Piece 2 as in Pirate Warriors 2? Decent price. Funny how the game isn't even up for pre-order on Amazon. I'll definitely pick this game up but I'm not sure if I should just wait. There's also the collector's edition, which The Hut doesn't seem to have, although considering how much more expensive the CE is I might just pass on it.
 
Maybe the wrong place to ask seeing as I think I know the answer to this already (ugh), but how much are 3DS retail games on the eShop?

£39.99? Or are some £29.99/£34.99?
 
They say every offer is "unique", you're only paying about 60p more than I did if you accept and getting a better price than you can get elsewhere (as far as I know).

Every little helps ... 60p less is is 60p more I can spend on something useful useless

1st party games are full price at £39.99
3rd party prices are more variable, from £39.99 (Monster Hunter) to £8.99 (Resident Evil Mercenaries)

Yeah Pirate Warriors 2. It could be worth just pre-ordering at that price and cancel later if it's cheaper/change your mind. Especially as the original still sells for about the £25 range now.

What's in the collectors edition? And who sells it?

The CE only contains the game and a figurine, I think. I saw GAME.co.uk selling it earlier but for whatever reason their site won't load for me now.

For how much longer does that code last? Is there still time to place an order tomorrow?

Hmm going off the official website, only GAME has it, so it's probably exclusive to them. But still £75 just for a figurine (though it is NICE) is a little pricey.

The code lasts for just 24hrs though I'm not sure when it started but I assume it'll have been from midnight to midnight? Dunno though.

I placed an order on The Hut. Like you said I could always cancel it later. I'm really excited for this game. And yeah, the CE is a bit too pricey. You can probably find some nice figurines on Amazon for less than that anyhow.
 
Are there any European sites that still has Rock Band instruments available and ship them to Sweden? If there ever was such a thing.
 
I really want to get a hold of the Animal Crossing 3DS XL, but I've already committed my games library to NA, meaning I have to import. I've not had much look finding a retailer that ships to the UK reliably, and also has this in stock.

Can anyone help with this?
 
man, God of War Ascension so much bomba, grabbed a copy of the special edition (steelbook case + free DLC) for under 25 Euros at my local store... is the game bad ? anyway for that price is a nice addition to my collection of factory sealed games.

edit: GAME store sales in Granada, Southern Andalusia (Spain)
 
It seems NIS America have done a reprint of last year's releases, just as they did this time last year for 2011's stuff. Things like Atelier Totori, Atelier Meruru and Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2 are back in stock everywhere around the £20 mark, having been in the £30-40+ range on eBay for the past six months.

Where are you? What store?

in Andalusia, Spain, got it at GAME, went for some Artbooks and came with GoW Ascension as well, looking at Amazon UK now I see I could have grabbed the regular edition for more or less the same price, so it's not Spain only, people already saving up for PS4 I'm hearing everywhere.
 
Just a word of warning with regards to Flubit... I ordered something a couple of days ago and it turns out they sent the wrong item. I've had to pay the postage back to have it returned and exchanged and the original difference in price is pretty much the same as what the postage has cost me. Worst thing is Flubit do not have anything to do with it, so you're stuck with the customer service of whichever random company they've used to get you the deal.

Which company? I've used them a few times now for Amazon and have nothing but praise for them.
 
Ooh, nice, are there any pictures of the keyboard anywhere? Other than the partially obscured one on the box.

I have one, it's a pretty small keyboard. I wouldn't use it as a regular use keyboard or anything, but it would be okay for short sessions on something like a PS3. A picture of it can be seen here
 
Seems pretty good that Flubit, got £5 off Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for 3DS, down to £26. Wasn't originally going to bother with the 3DS version, but if I buy that I can get a free digital copy of animal crossing. :>

I was thinking more along the lines of using it with a phone. How much force does it require to register keypresses? Is it something you could touch type on, or is it too small/requires too much key travel for that?

It doesn't require much force at all. Feels quite similar to an Apple keyboard when typing. It's not small to the point it hinders typing, the keys are fairly spaced as you can tell in the picture. It would do just fine for basic typing use, but nothing more due to its limited functionalities with no function keys, shortcut keys, etc.
 
Flubit's in house service (fireworks or something?) really delivered fast. 4 days ahead of their estimate. Packaging is not padded, just a cardboard sleeve but can't complain at their prices. Was really expecting them to ship Friday 'cause of their business model. Charged the same day it arrived also.

e. Oh looking at the receipt seems Base.com sent it, not Fireworks.
 
Company that sent me the item (Circle Pad Pro when I asked for Circle Pad Pro XL) is Rarewaves. I'd never heard of them before.
They are a seller on Amazon marketplace (maybe other places). Which is odd as I thought they would reject if you put an offer in from a third party seller yet its okay for them to send out items from random third party sellers...
 
So did anyone else get their tales of grace today from game and the box is battered to death :(
A few pages ago a similar story was mentioned. Unsealed, beaten up box. Disc contents perfect condition. So in other words the "restock" is a recall from stores to head office and since stores don't always get dummy copies they have to open a copy to display stock...

What is this website?
Flubit.
 
Radiant Historia (NDS) is currently $24.90 at Play-Asia.

This is a very good price for that game, as it's been really expensive (like $70 or $80) and difficult to get in the past few months.

Just wanted to say thanks for this - been wanting to play it for ages but couldn't bring myself to pay over the odds for a pricey import. Cheers!
 
For SwedeGAF:
Viaplay (a new swedish DD site for PC games which seems a bit shit in general) are offering deals on Skyrim (59 SEK, ~7 Euro) and Dishonored (79 SEK, ~9 Euro). There's also Aliens: Colonial Marines, but.. yeah.
Don't know how long these offers are running for. It seems you'll get a Steam key emailed to you, so that's good.
