No point buying P4A even if it's £0.99/€0.99. The community has moved on, people here who have an import console will dominate online matches and buying it sends the message that we don't mind putting up with BS region locks and baffling release delays.

No clear idea where's the best preorder place seeing as most have sold out their inital batch, thus the increase in price as well. Think they know people are buying the game regardless of price tbh.
 
I'll probably buy P4A when I can get hold of it cheap + preowned. Not supporting region locking, but I'd like to play the game.

UK-GAF, where's the best place to get Xenoblade? Online it seems like it's either at full price or even more, and I can't even find it in the stores near me. Want to buy it new.

Have the PS360 versions ever been this "low"?

I received a find-games notification a couple of days ago because the 360 game had hit the incredibly low price of £29.90.

£28 for the other editions, given the difference in release date and the lack of variety on WiiU you would think that Ubisoft would keep the price higher in the hopes that people would move onto it once they're done with Mario or Nintendoland. I'm guessing it bombed.

Did they work, is the real question
 
so zavvi have completely fucked me, ordered a game 2 months ago, it never arrived, it had tracking so they know it never arrived. after giving me the run around for weeks asking me to fill out forms by email and telling me they'd look into it on twitter, they wont reply by email, they wont reply by twitter cant contact them by phone, they moved my "where is my order" query on their site from "in progress" to "completed" with no reply.

I need VPN to download GoD games, right? I have a UK XBL but I'm not in the UK.
 
Blockbuster Marketplace should be on the banned list, too. Every game I've bought from them have had missing manual, scratches on both sides of the disc, or been bundle copies.

The Pre-owned games are supposed to be "Sold in their original packaging" but every game I've bought I've had problems with.

Took me three weeks to get a bundle copy of Halo replaced with a original one.

Cheap prices, shit quality. Never again.

Well guess what, i sent them another message (even if its closed you can still reply) and said that leaving a customer waiting so much time was not acceptable...

They replied me on the spot!

Coincidence?!

Don't forget:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-jersey-20953357

Online retailer Play.com is to shut down its retail business to become a marketplace-only, from March.

The Jersey-based firm blamed the move on the ending of Low Value Consignment Relief, which allowed items less than £15 to be sold to the UK VAT-free.

All 147 staff in Jersey are to be made redundant as well as 67 in its Cambridge and Bristol offices.

Play.com will now become more like a shopping centre, no longer selling directly to customers.

I can't speak specifically for GoD, but everything I've purchased with DD comes bundled with any online pass that came with the retail copy.

To me it sounds like you get what you pay for. No offence, they're a rental store right? So most of their used stock is going to be ex-rental garbage. 4 for £20, pretty good deal for current gen games however you look at it.

Can always go somewhere else. Sucks about the scratched discs though.

Totally get what you're saying, but that's not how they advertise them on there website.

I personally wouldn't recommend them to any fellow gaffer.
 
I think this market is going to fall flat on its face when the game is out. Everyone's buying it under this assumption that it's going to be worth more. Just like the PS3 did at launch.

I'm going to sit it out a week or two and see what happens.
 
^ Okey seriously, who is that on the picture? Is he a celebrity, someone random or what Keyser Soze actually looks like? I'm really clueless. I don't know who it is in Keyser's avatar either.

Ah, I see. Did a Google search for both the name of the show; never heard of either. So it's an American sitcom from 2003-2006? Well, I'll have a look at some trailer, but it doesn't sound promising. I'm glad to finally know where that guy is from though!

You beautiful bastard, thanks! I actually finished 999 over Christmas and ordered this with vouchers I got and it's been out of stock since. I cancelled the order yesterday thinking I'd maybe get it with a Vita at some point soonish but at £20 I'll bite.
