You have to pay extra for weekend delivery I believe. When you get your tracking through it will tell you anyway and you can upgrade the delivery.

No that's for guaranteed Saturday delivery. It's 4.99 for express courier with DPD evo deliver 7 days a week.

I don't think they offer free royal mail first class and an express option for £5 that's worse.
 
It's OK now, but you do have to brute force it. If you're fine with 30fps, lock it down and most machines will be fine. I didn't try the final patch, but the one before that had some weird stuff where you needed more than 12GB to get to 60fps.

12GB of GPU memory? Or RAM?

Sod that anyway, if I ever get it, I'll just buy it for my PS4. Thanks for the info though!

take it if I ordered FFXV off simply games now I wouldn't get it tomorrow or Monday?

From their site "All in stock orders placed before 3.30pm will be despatched the same working day (Monday - Friday) Orders placed after 3.30pm Friday will be despatched the following Monday morning (Excluding Bank Holidays)."

Hmmm might give it a try even though I have it ordered on Amazon

More likely to get it early from simplygames than Amazon.

I haven't had a game arrive early from Amazon in absolutely years.

The CDkeys queue thing seems crazy but it has to be better than ppl hammering a site so it grinds to a halt and nobody gets anything.

I got one in a pick up location (1 day earlier), and they hold it until release day by amazon instructions..

So I'm sure amazon makes sure that you don't get it before release day.

I found it super weird because I don't think any of the deals are that fantastic. The Division was cheap on Xbox One, and the CoD on PC deals were decent, but I don't think those were enough to ground the site to an halt.

I felt it was either them being overly cautious and/or creating artificial interest out of the fact there's a long queue for their stuff.

They're very good at doing next day.

Yup, but Rox has about 13 minutes to decide.

See the thing against me is being in NI so delivery can be hit or miss for next day.

But I put the order in there at 3:11 so I guess i'll just wait and see.

Simple, order from simply and cancel the one which doesn't dispatch first. Which will be amazon who'll probably dispatch on Monday.


Don't think simply ship on saturday so if it doesn't go today then they'll both be shipped Monday

Nah, I've seen that queue thing before randomly about 4 months back, but it was only 2 minutes then. Think it's on all the time so they don't get hit with a big usage bill.

Oh right. In that case I guess they're cheaping out on the hosting then! :p

Any good ps4 game deals ? Have a ps4 and no games... Exclusives mainly, already have plenty on my xb1

It is but isn't that only a reduction of about £2 from what it normally is on CDkeys?

Same with MCC. CDkeys have had both those Halo games, as well as Assassins Creed Unity, at insanely low prices for a while now. Unity cost me less than £2 a month or so ago.
 
Amazon.de PS4 Slim at 196€

https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01LQF9RDI/

They ship to other european countries

PS4 Pro bundles are keeping up rather well...

Are they still classing it as a pre-order? They do send the next day deliveries on Monday because they can't pretend they're only shipping this early to make sure it arrives on release.

No it's marked shipped.

They must just cheap out on the courier. Dpd delivery comes at the weekend with Amazon etc , Simply look like they only use the weekday service and charge £20 for weekend delivery.

No matter , I'm out a £5 but I'll just stick to other sites in future.

I don't know any sites which offer DPD with weekend delivery to be honest.

The only reason I had something delivered some months back on a weekend from DPD was because DPD fucked up delivering it on the Friday (said my road was inaccessible when it wasn't) and they upgraded me for free.

If you have the tracking and don't mind paying you can sometimes upgrade to weekend delivery yourself through their site, or by phoning them up.

Where are you from? CDON and Elgiganten have some okay deals right now if you're in Scandinavia

can you check prices online? its a 15minute bikeride in malmö, and i dont want to get out in the cold, of there is nothing to grab.

otherwise online seems to be crazy shit going on right now.

Amazon for one.

Dishonored 2 is £30 with Shopto for the PS4 version at the moment, haven't looked elsewhere but seems like it'd be a decent price.
 
Zavvi got 10% off for uh... 22 minutes more or so with code POWER10. Works with everything including their Black Friday deals. Got Doom for £13.49.
