US PSN is around £7 cheaper

From a quick look, Tesco have it the cheapest at £42 on their website. I would assume it's the same in store.
US digital edition of GTA V is around £38.
If you want to be physical, everything does seem around £45.
Just scanned on cdkeys.com to see if they had a deal and noticed that Last of Us PS4 US code is back in stock at £24.99

Oh really? I was either going to go for FC4 or GTA V, what bad things have you heard?
(everything I've heard has been extremely positive)
Also, thanks, Trigger, I'll try in store Tesco, I don't want to go digital with this one.
Thanks for that, I never got that email but I did get a letter that didn't mention the offer.
I'll be there on Friday getting Dragon Age and hopefully a hard drive.

I'm only hearing really positive things about GTA V as well, unless the online servers are shagged that I've not heard about.
Seems like both GTA V and FC4 are fine choices.
Holy shit, it's the closest thing to a real drive-by most of us will ever encounter!
I love that that's on Grove Street as well.

This...this is perfect. I only got to play for 20 minutes yesterday cause my Dad wanted to play Destiny.
But he thought the new first person mode is awesome.It looks to be broken - when I go to the page I get a broken window with a message that the certificate they are using has expired
app.statichtmlapp.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate expired on 18/11/2014 23:59. The current time is 19/11/2014 11:49. (Error code: sec_error_expired_certificate)

Double Nectar points in Sainsbury's on entertainment starts today. So if you happen to have 4,000 points to spend, you could potentially get it for £22.99 in Sainsbury's. (Actual money spent of £2.99, the rest on Nectar.)
Smaller discounts for 1,000, 2,000 or 3,000, but still the cheapest you'll get it.
Thanks, I generally shop at Tesco though so I don't have any Nectar points. Clubcard boost got me CoD:AW on release day for £17 though so I was pretty happy about that
is that instore or online? how does it work...tempted to pick up something as I have ~£60 in nectar and Far Cry 4 is calling me!
edit - ok, just noticed the link a few posts up and reading up now...
edit 2 - go instore and swap points for voucher worth 10,20,30 or 40 - great, shame the mrs will no doubt want some of that...lol

Yeah thanks that is what I saw also :O
That is why I asked, to bad was looking forward to applying the extra 5% discount.

Nice twitter to the rescue!
[edit] grrrr that code did not work well just asked them on twitter for a new one lets hope it works then
The last couple of years, the black Friday/Cyber Monday thing has started happening over here, which is next Thursday and then the Monday after respectively. Unless something amazing pops up, I'd wait until those at least just in case.
GAMEs stupid bundles are out of stock now it seems, although GTA V, Destiny and Last of Us for £369.99 isn't too bad.
Ok I think I'll wait for that. Thanks.

Any Wii U users know the best and cheapest option for an external hdd. I already have one but it doesn't have its own power supply which the Wii I doesn't seem to like.
Most are 1TB upwards but you wouldn't need much more than that surely. If anyone knows what's best hit me up.

Not an owner of an external drive (I really need to get on with it).
Have you tried using a Y cable on the external then plug it into two USB ports with what you've got (second one for power can be a hub not connected to the Wii U). That would be the cheapest option
I find ones with AC power come with capacity way too large for the Wii U nowadays.
I have a 15% voucher code for zavvi. It ends tomorrow and does not work on pre-orders or consoles. Ends tomorrow midnight.
I wasn't going to post it here, but I though I'd do it because I actually made this post to rant a bit and I thought the code could go in this post.
Been unlucky with a few pre-orders in a very short time now. Zavvi fucked up my Tales of Xillia 2 pre-order so I cancelled it and bought from rice digital instead. I had to pay a few pounds more, but I finally managed to get the Day One edition.
Decided to cancel all pre-orders I had with zavvi out of frustration. Cancelled Tales of Hearts R and wnet with WOW HD and now they fucked up my Tales of Hearts R order. Pre-ordered in August and now it says that I'll be lucky if I get the game shipped in 7-10 days. I have a feeling the pre-order will be cancelled or I will get a version without the pre-order costumes. I'm going to keep my order with WOW HD mainly because of the price.
Dragon Age: Inquisition releases this Friday, let's see if they mess up the shipping of that one.
All I want to do is play Tales on a handheld.

Don´t worry, WOWHD seem to do that with all preorders. I preordered Fantasy Life from them recently. On release day nothing happened. A few days later I got an email that my order got delayed. They must´ve thought that wasn´t obvious yet. And my order status went to "back order". As if they had just discovered that I had put in the order weeks before that or something.
In the end they sent it exactly 7 days after release and it arrived within the normal WOWHD time frame (which is about another week to here). It´s probably standard procedure.
So your Tales of Hearts R order will likely get shipped by the end of this week.
If there happens to be a problem with the preorder costumes I´d try to contact Namco about it. You still have your preorder email, right? And maybe even proof of payment too as WOWHD always charges right away iirc?
If you own a 3DS there´s Tales of the Abyss too.
The Bart Smit deal is nation wide, and i've now seen the same price for the same bundle in Fnac & Dreamland.

I do own Tales of the Abyss, but I was really hyped for Hearts R.
Yeah, I have all emails from them as they charge you right away.
I have used both shops several times but never had big issues like these before. (One game went missing from zavvi once, but I got a refund.)

I haven't got one, it's one of those things you think you've seen lying around but I can't find one in my drawer of messy cables.
I'm probably looking for one thats recommended from others just so nothing goes wrong, since these type of things always mess up for me and I wouldn't mind investing if it saved frustration.
Might just opt for one Nintendo recommend.
WOW HD is cheap, but their shipping takes ages, because they are shipping from Hong Kong.
I'm eyeing some external hdd on Amazon. I want something cheap and not too huge and the only brands that has something like that are Bipra and Somnics.
Anyone knows anything about that brands?
hi i just wanted to tell you guys that in germany nearly every media markt and saturn does have plenty of first print editions for 65-70 euros.
when i searched a few shops a few days ago because of cubic ninjas i was baffled that tons of these special edition were sitting on the shelves.
i kinda got mad, because i was about to throw money out to get it but after the insane online prices i just got the special edition for 53euros.
so try to check retail, there should be plenty of them lying around.
i got one at amazon for 40 euros, its a 500gb toshiba 2,5'' one.
its neccessary that it has a y-cable, my usb 3.0 2,5'' switches off automatically after 5 minutes when i use it with my wii u

That's $37.50CDN, which roughly amounts to 23,40 (shipping included).

Ha, you must be crazy.

...hate me...
Are these cheeky bastards really trying to charge me £2.95 to send a code over email?
They ship for free in the UK. Like actual physical packages.
My address is foreign so I get a charge to get a digital code. Because it's so expensive to send a long distance email.
I didn't go through with it and might just take my business directly to the eShop out of spite.

I really wish there was alternatives when it comes to Nintendo download codes in EU :/
I sent them a message, waiting on the reply.
Wow, that is ridiculous.
Why don´t you have them send this order to your cozy little cottage in Buckingham Palace though? ;-)
That's true but I don't know if they check my payment's method address (either credit card or paypal) and I can't be arsed to sign up for a new account only to find out that later.

Stopped using GAME after they ramped the price of my pre-order of the Bayonetta 1&2 Special Edition up to £50, instead of the original £40 the cashier quoted me when making the pre-order. Just strolled in to pick it up on release and BAM! 10 quid increase right there on the spot. Wouldn't leave before I got my pre-order deposit back in cash despite them wanting to give me it back in store credit, walked right out of there and went to Grainger games were they had a ton of them in stock for £40.
They also have massive inconsistencies between website, and store prices too.
Yeah GAME's instore prices are always higher than online.
Personally I always use Grainger games as there instore prices are the same as online and they price match the local Tesco, which comes in handy, as well as price matching CEX for trade ins.

They're fine for pre-orders,accessories and consoles though. Their "new" games for older releases can be hit and miss unfortunately -_-. Especially those with lower prices and high demand.
