"Sorry, we cannot supply digital products to customers who have not previously received physical products and had a card registered to their account for at least 30 days" :(

Any other places other than SimplyGames or ShopTo?

EDIT: Game have got £35 download vouchers for £34, not much of a deal but it's better than a kick up the arse and at least they won't screw me over with stupid requirements.

game doesn't sell to me either. Shopto at least sell games just fine.
Oh well
 
Yeah that's an annoying aspect of Shopto, since I only use PayPal given their history. Probably overly cautious, but it works fine for physical items.
 
So here's a weird thing. After checking like every 20 minutes for several days now that PS4 bundle with second DS4, Killzone and Camera appeared for 500 Euros on Amazon Germany. I pre-ordered two (the reasoning as for why is another story, but not that interesting) and I told people on Twitter about it. So, five minutes later it seems Amazon pulled the bundle. It's still there, but not up for pre-order.

Ok then, maybe I was really fast right? But now the weird part. I just got two Emails (one per PS4) telling me the price of the bundle decreased to 470 Euro. What's going on here?

The price dropped to 470 for a few minutes and people who ordered before asked support if they will pricematch that (as promised in the low price guarantee). Looks like they matched the price system wide.

As for why they closed preorders, I guess a lot of people jumped on the deal and they're just out of their allocation for now.

The price was at 474,14€ for a short time. As you've ordered before that point you also got the reduction.

edit: tooooo slooooow :)

Thank you, guys. Let's hope that bundle comes out at launch. Looks like an official bundle here, so let's see.
 
Sorry, but were do I have to look for Game.co.uk vouchers? Hukd? (it doesn't have to be now, but I sort of want to be notifed or check it ervery now and then)
Thank you.

Game rarely (read: never) offer discount vouchers/promo codes. If that's what you mean.

I'm pretty sure that they do, in fact, I think that there has been at least one £5 off £50 code per month since ... march?
Just google game.co.uk discount code and check the first few sites.

In fact, (quote to reveal) is a £5 off £50 code that works right now.

You can get a £5 and a £35 for £34.98.
 
Just a quick question for anyone that's pre-ordered stuff from GAME before:

If you pick the game up from the store will it be shrink wrapped? I've surprisingly never pre-ordered from GAME before.

It's just a small nit pick but it's something I expect for release day pick ups.

GAME don't sell games shrink wrapped. I know, right?

? All the pre-orders I've seen given out when I've been into GAME were shrink wrapped. Especially if it's a popular release. They usually have piles of sealed copy waiting behind the desk ready to hand over to people who pre-ordered.
 
Well since it doesn't seem like it'll be coming to PC any time soon, I guess I better double dip and get it on console... any deals on GTA V for PS3?

If it's a new release. go to the counter and ask them for it instead of taking a display copy. They will usually just grab a shrink wrapped copy from behind the counter for you

...that's what I always do anyway.

Nice bundle, that's basically everything I plan to buy for PS4 short term.

I hope this will be available in stores as well, because due to KZ being USK18 amazon will only ship this bundle with ID check. So you have to be there in person for the package (or pick it up on the next day at the post office) and they won't send it to packstations either.
Or taking a day off mhhhh, anyway seems the bundle is sold out for now?

Should also cost 5€ extra shipping, or did they stop doing that?

First 3D Pokemon. Like, actual 3D battles on a handheld. I've been waiting for this shit since I was 9.

And GTA V will probably be good, but I imagine overrated like it's predecessor.

This will be the first Pokemon I get day 1 since Red/Blue.
I am hyped as fuck. Will wait vor GTA V PC version
forever

I got Black and White pretty close to day one, but last time I was this excited for a Pokemon game was Diamond and Pearl... there was like 3 months between NA/EU dates so I imported a copy of Diamond off eBay. So disappointing, even at the time. Just felt like the GBA games given a bit of a polish. Can't wait for X and Y though, redeemed.
 
The £60 price tag on WW HD ganondorf edition at GAME irks me a little being an exclusive. They've always had the game by itself priced at £44.99 which is £15 too much in my book. I'm better off scouting for it on ebay a few months after rather than supporting these GAME prices. Any chance of it losing GAME exclusivity in the future?

Can you purchase these codes from EU?
newegg.com have a End of summer sale with 2K games.
http://promotions.newegg.com/games/13-3979/index.html?icid=206146

Borderlands 2 for $11.99
Bioshock Infinite for $15.99
Brave New WOrld $11.99
Click to expand...

I don't think so, you might as well wait for a better sale. When UK website do Borderlands 2 it is around £7.50 and Bioshock Infinite is £12.50 when it goes on sale at greenmangaming, so not really worth the trouble of finding a workaround on newegg.

It was £35 on Amazon, but gone back up to £40. Try to Flubit it. :)

I put GTAV into Flubit right after I pre-ordered it for £34.99 at Amazon, and they gave me an offer for £37.98. Hahaha.
 
Is it possible to use UK PSN / PS Plus cards on Australian PSN accounts? If not, somebody, please tell me where to buy digital Australian PSN or PS Plus cards. :(

those cards can only be used by accounts, which are from the same region (so UK PSN cards only on UK PSN accounts). But you could just create an UK PSN account and use them that way. On PS3 you can use (almost all) content on all accounts. Which means you could buy a game and then play it using your Australian PSN account (maybe a good idea, I know some of the prices on Australian PSN :/ ).

For Vita it's afaik not possible to switch accounts that way. Which means you could still use the content, but only using the UK PSN account.

For PSN+ cards it's the same. "Free" games are playable on all accounts. But cloud-saving is only enabled for the account, that actually bought PSN+.

I did that when I pre-orded and they gave me a £31.18 preorder price, but I forgot about it as I never heard of their suppliers before, so I'm sticking to Amazon's £34.99! :)
