Australian Gaming Deals: Bloody hell! What a sale!

I'll definitely be creeping on triple deluxe and tfh if they are.

mmmm... Tearaway is calling to me, but I don't want any split orders.
 
Here's a tip for the Target sale. Shadow of Mordor PS4 and XB1 are available for $44 (take 25% off that) but aren't actually listed under the PS4/XB1 games list for some reason. If you search on the Target ebay site you'll find them.

Hoping for a restock of Far Cry 4 PS4 personally. Not worth it for Tearaway alone, I need the free shipping!

Is that Shadow of Mordor GOTY? :0

I would have bought Mad Max and Uncharted Collection from Target, but they've jacked the base price up so much it's not worth it.

What's a good site that ships to Europe to get Yo-Kai Watch from seeing as it comes out in Oz this year?
 
Very tempted to go online for Fallout 4 just to avoid the "ugh, just slash my wrists" shop assistants at my local JB.

I've ordered instock blurays from JB hifi online and they've taken about a week to show up. What are they like for delivery for preordered games? When Dick Smith were doing awesome deals last year they'd usually show up on release day.
 
Is the JB Fallout 4 price really that good? I don't have a PS4 here yet; plan on getting one late Nov/Dec. Should I buy the game now, or wait? (Dunno much about the game pricing trends here in Australia)
 
The price IS pretty damn good, I doubt you'll find it cheaper before next year. Their shipping is also pretty good now, last item I ordered got here in a timely manner, a few days or something I think.

Bloody good. Usually games will cost $79 on release day, but Big W will occasionally do them for $68. Sub-60 is unheard of, other than some deals Dick Smith was doing late last year that they've since stopped.

For comparison, that's $40 cheaper than a digital PS4 or XB1 version, and $50 cheaper than the price Steam is charging.
 
Mighty Ape have a 1 day game sale: https://www.mightyape.com.au/sales/8710/1-DAY-Game-Sale/Games

Prices aren't that great but you might find something amongst it all.

Wolfenstein Old Blood for $13.30 is nice.

https://www.mightyape.com.au/product/Wolfenstein-The-Old-Blood-Xbox-One/23011752

Mighty Ape's only really good if you order two or more games at once though, since it's a flat $5 postage.

Guess I'm buying the game before the console, then. Thanks for the replies, guys!

JB HI FI had Dark Souls 2, Scholar of First Sin for PS4 at $40 over the weekend. Picked it up with my preorder of Fallout 4.

Noice!

Looking for WiiU bundles for my nephews, any good deals around?

Yes, Target has a great deal on their eBay store (25% off, you get the Mario Maker bundle for $299.25):

If you don't mind ordering online ozgameshop they have it for the cheapest I've seen . http://www.ozgameshop.com/m/xbox-one-games/rise-of-the-tomb-raider-xbox-one-game

But I don't know how much shipping will cost ( in my experience it's been low) hopefully it helps!

Mighty Ape is a bit cheaper:

Does anyone know if the $59 JB deal will last after the game is released? Or will it just be for the pre-order stage of the game?

Catch of the Day have a deal on digital games: https://www.catchoftheday.com.au/e/club-catch/event/digital-gaming-clearance-50001/

They seem to be all Steam codes and they're all really good prices. The catch is you need to be in club catch, but I assume the 30 day free trial will work for this.

$5 Civ V GOTY
$9 Shadows of Mordor
$7 Bioshock Infinite
$11 Dark Souls 2

and a bunch of others.

Pro tip: use Visa checkout. You can get 1x $20 and 2x $10 credits, making the games even cheaper still (effectively paying only a few cents depending on the games you buy).

Some decent deals at Dick Smiths and Target, saw Rayman Legends and Infamous Second Son for $15 at Target. Dick Smith seems to be clearing out their gaming sections, most non new releases are $20, picked up Shadow of Mordor and Far Cry 4 this morning.
