Flubit sucks for me lately. Offers have gone down to like 1% since the Amazon switch.

I got 10% off my latest order so not always.

Guys, when you order from flubit, it almost always says "fireworks merchant" is delivering it. That is just a company owned by flubit, they don't actually deliver anything.

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?
Click to expand...

Yes, it's 5€ extra shipping. My problem with this bundle is the delivery, I'm pretty sure Amazon will use Hermes for that, just as they did with the Wii U and ZombiU. Hermes usually arrives at my house at 18:00-20:00. The wait for the package to arrive is like torture. :)
And yes, it's sold out for now.

I gave them an Amazon link for a book and it got supplied by SpeedyHen. Not affiliated to Amazon or Flubit as far as I know. Just a regular online retailer.

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?

No. Europe in general is just fucked when it comes to the Ganon edition. It's ridiculous how it's $5 more in the US and already below standard retail price and here we have to add an extra 15 pound premium ON TOP of higher than usual retail price. I saw this edition on sale in Germany for 76 freaking Euros. What the hell!

The official price is 69,99 € (available at amazon.fr), where did you see it for 76 €?

That is weird, spielegrotte.de had the Special Edition but failed to tell me how to order from them, not it's gone. Ugh, I guess no Special Edition for me then ;__;
Click to expand...

Bummer. Buecher.de had a €10 off coupon but that expired yesterday. It's why I checked their site since I was hoping they'd have a price not thought up by a vile creature from outer space with no sense of decency.

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+.

Thanks for the reply, that sux. My main account is AU that's why I want it.

Anyway, I have to stick with Turkish store then, which is even cheaper than US. 1 year PS Plus sub is ~ $48.
 
My PS Vita from that Shopto deal arrived earlier this week. Nice bit of kit, and I already have a large backlog of games thanks to PS+

Want to pick up Persona 4 and have been offered £24.10 from Flubit. Anyone know of any better deals?

Damn ridiculous. Even moreso when you consider that Zelda U and many other first party ninty games (as well as next gen non ninty games) will be the same price, if not cheaper as a 10 year old remake.

On the bright side that 10% off code seems to be working bringing it down to £53.99 and someone on HOTUKD says another code will start working again tomorrow (comment #6 down the page). Not sure if that's £10 off or 10% but we'll see.

As huge zelda fan and zelda collector I'm torn trying to decide whether to bite on this or not at this ridiculous price. Based on how quick it ran out in the US, value of this will be pretty high but then again it'll look so good on my shelf...

I think that's the best price you'll get for it at the moment. Rest safe in the knowledge that you could pay £100 for it and still feel like you'd gotten your money's worth by the end. Amazing game.

Even with 10% or even 10 pounds off, it's still crazy. I have the game on pre-order @ thehut for 40 EUR so I don't see myself spending 20-30 bucks for that statue alone.

Eh, I dunno about "fantastic" - The Last Of Us is fantastic, Bayonetta is fantastic, Super Mario Galaxy is fantastic, Yakuza: Dead Souls? Erm... - but it's definitely an experience.

Like the man said - everyone needs to play this at least once, if only for the Goro Majima Ragtime Show
, which, unfortunately, i cannot find a .gif for at the moment

I love the Yakuza games, so I'm pretty biased. Saying that, I will admit that perhaps saying it's fantastic is a bit hyperbolic. It's a great game though and definitely worth picking up for a fiver.
 
Where can I buy Theathrythm for a reasonable price? I'm not in the UK. Why is this game so damn rare? Anyone want to sell me their copy?

I think it was a limited print to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Final Fantasy. It's no longer Final Fantasy's 25th now. ;-)

Sub-30 reasonable for you? Amazon Germany have it at that price.

Amazon France also have it for a fairly reasonable price.

Dunno if either ship to Sweden and what the cost is.

Thanks! Ordered from DE, €36 in total. I expect it will be worth it! Played the demo like 10 times :p
 
Not really what i'd call a 'bargain' but for those interested you can get the Zelda Wind Waker HD Ganondorf Limited Edition from GAME for £53.99 using code GAMEPAL13 to get 10% off (Thanks to HUKD for the code) Still expensive, but whats a Zelda fan to do...

Also dont forget TopCashBack are currently offering a rate of 6.06% for software purchased at GAME (The code above might make you ineligible for cashback, but its worth a try)
 
Saints Row IV (PS3/360) - £26.99 @ GAME

A bit cheaper in Tesco I think...

Although this is good news, as Amazon always price match GAME. When that happens, you could then use Flubit to better Amazon's price, and SRIV should be down to about £23.

Also, getting cheaper overall for non UK people - now that Amazon / GAME should have it lower. Tesco drop did not help non-UK much!

damn, we're at that time of year when big games drop to half price after 2-3 weeks? My wallet is about to cry.
Click to expand...

It's all year round in the UK. Most games are bomba apparently ;)

I know it's early but are there any good deals on the 2DS in the UK? I'm really tempted with a 2D only 3DS as i wouldn't use the 3D function due to vision problems anyway.
 
SuperSah said:
GAME has it for £99.99, right?
Click to expand...

The website says £109.99 like Amazon. That seems a good price to me i was just wondering if there's any bundles or deals about in case something really caught my eye. Inspiration really or rather an excuse to jump in at launch rather than waiting :)

Usually takes a month or two, but in the run up to Xmas game prices just drop like hell. You can get a game half price in just a few weeks.
HMV have SR4 for £25 according to HUKD. Crazy, especially as it's not even a bomba.

Asda's online store also has it for £25 at the moment (and in stock)

Did anybody order Need for Speed Most Wanted for Wii U from Shopto? They haven't shipped my copy yet and I placed the order on the 2nd.. I hope they don't cancel on me.

Use their 10% code for the £99.99. I can't confirm if it's expired though. Check earlier posts for it.

EDIT: GAMEPAL is the code. Minimum of a £50 spend, expires in one day.

Apparently, no.

I saw a supplier called "Fireworks". That is not Amazon.

Flubit use Amazon prices for offers then get any random retailer they can find selling for cheaper to send. If the retailer has to send to cardholders address (or don't do a gift option) then it gets sent to fireworks who basically open it and forward it onto you.

It seems to have gone out of print in Europe. Thats why the price is high. Amazon.co.uk had it backorder for a while but they canceled everyone in April due to no chance of stock (I made the choice to grab to a used copy from Amazon warehouse).

It makes me wonder why it is not on the eShop or what the point of the demo still being up is. GAME had some "new" copies (i.e. a store or two found a pile and sent them back to head office) in stock about a week ago but they sold out quickly.
