traded in Last Remnant which I bought for £18, got £33 for it from Gamestation despite them selling it for £20! Felt like I'd totally abused the system. Don't think I will be going back to that branch for awhile

Prince of Persia + £8 store credit = mine. Get in!

Would suck if any of the staff browsed this thread :D

Holy crap at those PS3 bundles. PS3 with Resistance 2, Fallout 3, Little Big Planet and Lost for roundabout 330 €. Thats even better than the Amazon bundles.
They look better than they are for those of us in the UK because our currency has tanked vs the Euro over the past few weeks. :D

Yeah but for us good Europeans with the Euro these UK prices are a dream come true. UK is the new USA, best shopping for Euro importers.

No, just reminds us how much money GAME makes out of us normally.

no, doesnt work like that, game/gamestation are striking up special deals with the distributors and publishers to get these special prices

I just went into shitstation to take advantage of this. I like how their website states the RRP of the game is £48.93.

scum

sub human scum

Fallout 3 - £19.99
POP - £24.99
Mirrors Edge - £24.99
...
...
...
Dead Space - £39.99

Their trade in offer for Saints Row 2 was.. £8

Anyone over the age of 18 not involved in some form of higher education who works in one of these shitholes is a pathetic scumbag. Why are they all such arrogant cunts?

I also heard one of them told an apparently undeceive girl that she should pick an the xbox 360 after using the question 'Are you a gamer?' as a test :lol

I'm not really angry

Stop reading my other forum! Its not allowed!
 
If people are interested in cheap 16:9 resolution monitors, check out the iiyama E2208HDS for £146.79. It's 22 inch and does 1920x1080. It doesn't have HDMI but it does have DVI and supports HDCP, also it has speakers (although they're kinda crappy).
 
Even cheaper 16:9 22", Benq E2200HDA - 1980x1080 and it has speakers, but unfortunately it only has VGA connection. £113 (+ shipping) from here


There is a version which has DVI, HDMI and VGA but that' an extra 40 notes (£151)


/I know monitor speakers are crap, but handy for gaming nights when you can't be arsed dragging speakers to your mates house...

I hate play.com and its stupid pound-euro conversion.
Prince of Persia is supposed to cost 20€ but they charge 26€.

True but still that ain't a bad price either :) They just added the ps3 version to.
 
Monday Madness @ play.com and no signs of (PS3) GTA IV and MC:LA <£20. It will never happen again, will it? :(

*weeps*

Ditto.

E: But still bought :/

Damn that I missed those £19.99 Mirror's Edge sales. Mirror's Edge and Dead Space and I would've gotten pretty much all the games I wanted this year.

Is it possible to pay via credit card in pound, and have the cc company make the conversion?

So basically I need a nice brit chap whom I paypal the money, who´ll order and send it to me.
GOWANS!!!! :D
You need a brit to buy it with his account and type in your address as the delivery destination :o
It might just work.

anyone knows where to buy 2100 ms points cheaper than in retail, with instant code emailed if possible :)

eBay, I got 12 months XBL for like £24 or something, emailed straight through, redeemed via xbox.com, don't even need to go through the annoying interface and typing with that shitty d-pad ;)

I can't believe how quickly Prince of Persia dropped in price, if I paid full price for it, which I nearly did, I'd be totally pissed.

Waiting 2-3 weeks gets the price halved, and its not only down to the holiday madness sales either, this is pretty common for xbox games in particular. Very weird. and very annoying if you were a day one buyer!

I know right...I'm never buying another PAL game day one unless its something I seriously can't live without.
 
Just like to dedicate my first post to this great thread! Specifically for pointing me towards Gamestation for the 120GB 360 HDD, which I picked up along with the £20 Banjo :D

I was going to post about Banjo, but you guys already had it covered on the last page :lol
