There is no Steam key with that, I take it? Either way, that is some deal!

It redeems through their own client I think, well, at least that's what Arkham City did when I bought it and I'd presume this is the same.
Arkham Asylum isn't Steamworks, no.

Not sure if it was cheaper for UK-only before, but it popped up in my GamesTracker list:
Syndicate (PS3, PAL): £12.89 @wowhd (formerly cdwow)
If you're not from the UK, you might want to switch to your local wowhd site (upper left corner) as e.g. for me the € price was actually cheaper than the conversion from the UK price.
No shipping fees, so total was 13.79€ shipped to Germany.
Forgot if the game is actually any good but I liked the trailer and that price is ok imo
Edit: Seems it's already out of stock!

Have you actually ordered from them ? If yes, how is the shipping delay ? How long did it take to arrive to your mailbox ? Thanks.

Not recently, was years ago but had a good experience (not too long shipping, no lost item etc.). Usually I never order there because they can't compete with the prices of the other shops most of the time as well as not having all items (e.g they don't seem to have the 360 PAL version at all in this case Oo).
You can also pay via PayPal and for 0.75€ you get insurance for lost orders apparently.
Can report back once it's there
btw. shipping times seem to have gotten better for me with zavvi/hut etc. in the last half year or so, usually takes only 1-1.5 weeks now (to Germany), was 2-3 weeks before. Anyone else noticed that?
As well as Arkham Asylum being cheap as chips Arkham City is down to £5 with GameFly now too

Gamefly is region specific? Because it automatically redirects me to .com when I try to go to .co.uk site. *sigh*

Veering slightly OT but I figure I'll ask anyway:
Does anybody know of any good deals on external HD's at the moment?
I had two 500GB drives but one has crapped out on me and so I'm really hurting for extra storage space right now.....

Typical, now I have need of Zavvi/Hut code action (preferably the former). Anyone able to help out?! Would be much appreciated.

So, hk versions then. 3DS games won't work then.
Thrifty karma joy! Many thanks, kind sir.
No, I think the region should be Europe. I might be wrong, but I'm sure the parcel usually says HK on it. Not sure how it works since I don't usually use them these days.
According to their website, they ship from various countries. Either way it should be fine and 3DS games seem to say PAL specifically so they'll work unless they send you the wrong thing.

A steal at that price. I bought it back when it was full price, and I don't regret it (well, OK, maybe a little bit, as it dropped to £25 pretty fast); it's the best Sonic game in years, and an all-around great game in general.
Anyone know if you get the steam keys seperate for each game? Or is there just one, for all the games?
I wasn't planning on being a bastard, and selling any on. It's just, there's 4 of the 8, that I already own. So would fire them out to friends.
EDIT: Had a look around the support page. Seems like I can't do, what I was planning. Can understand why. Think I'll still go for the package, above average price.

The Humble Indie Bundles are such amazingly good deals that you really shouldn't be giving away excess codes anyway. Seriously, £6 gets you the lot, and you get to choose who the money goes to. Your friends should be buying these themselves.
why should this be any different from buying retail games? you should be free to sell and give them away as you please

That's opening a can of worms. What's stopping people from paying a dollar for steam keys and hoarding them for a while then reselling them for $10 on ebay?

Are there any places doing cheap Wii points?

You're not buying eight games, you're buying a bundle of eight games. You're free to sell and give away the bundle of eight games as you please.
Because when you sell them, the bundle has ended? It would be pretty stupid to sell them while the bundle was still going.
Higher minimum prices and bonus games for beating the average price. Other than that... Nothing.
bad example, whats to stop people buying games/points cards online dirt cheap and selling them on for profit?

Show me where you can buy 8 retail games, along with their soundtracks for £6.
I have spare codes for Bastion, Super Meat Boy, Lone Survivor, and Braid (you get seperate codes for the games that you receive for donating over the average), but I'm not going to give them to anybody anytime soon, as I let all my friends know about the Humble Indie Bundle, and if they're not interested enough to pay a pittance of £6 (to charity or indie developers, no less), then they're not interested enough to warrant me giving them codes for free.
I'm well aware that the whole point of this thread is about saving money, but there are limits, and telling people they don't need to donate to charity is one of them.
Hell, if somebody doesn't want to pay £6, then they can pay a penny and receive 5 games. That's a compromise right there.
I don't know man. If you give them something, maybe they will give some other person something else down the line? Generosity leads to generosity. At least I try to think like that instead of being cynical about it

11% off at The Hut until full time, ENG11
Thanks for this. Used it to get some games that hold there price very well (PS3 Lego HP 5-7, Lego PotC *both gone down to below £15 recently* and The Jak & Daxter collection)
All together saved me over a fiver =]

PS Vita 3G + 8GB Memory Card for 239€ @ Amazon DE
I think this is the first time you can get the 3G version for less than than what you would normally pay for the Wifi version. (or what the 3DS originally costed)
