holy crap! Half.com, is that site legit? They have Star Ocean Second Story for only 11 bucks?!!! No way! I'm buying that right now! Most sites are selling that game for $120 minimum.

edit: disc only though. =/

Lol!!!

Well done... Well done...

ShopTo.net for the UK is awesome.

Literally every pre-order i have made there for the past 2 or 3 years has arrived a day, sometimes 2 days, early before release.

Not to mention they are generally £4 or £5 cheaper on every title (That's alot since it's £40 for games in the UK for the Americans out there =P), plus their reward scheme is actually worth a damn.

Gazondaily4180d ago

Cheers for that mate- will remember that for the future!

actually PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is cheaper on Amazon.co.uk and with free delivery...

InitiatedSpoon4179d ago

@b_one Whilst Amazon may be a little cheaper and have free super saver delivery it takes 3-5 days to arrive so if the game comes out on a Friday the game doesn't arrive until Monday in most cases unless you pay the extra for the faster delivery which then negates the money saved by using Amazon. However shopto has free first class delivery as standard and on pre-orders the game comes a day early as they ship 2 days before to make sure it is on time. Also shopto send you an email with a photo of your parcel attached. They genuinely make you feel as though your one order really matters to them.
Furthermore they also have a rewards scheme which gives you money back to spend on other products on their website. Each full priced retail game (£38) on their site gets you about £1.50-£2.00 back.

TotalHitman4179d ago

The first time and only time I pre-ordered a game from ShopTo.net, it came 2 days late. 2 days after the official release. That was for SSX.

Also, they're selling Black Ops for £44.86. Not exactly £4 or £5 cheaper than any other title.

jetpacksheep4179d ago

Yeah ShopTo is awesome, Halo 4 came a day early and they dispatch items in literally 5 minutes.

caseh4179d ago

If you're based in the UK I highly recommend find-game.co.uk

It acts in same fashion as moneysupermarket or gocompare but for games. Saved myself a lot of cash through this site.

Used to rely upon Shopto.net but they bodged my pre-order of Mass Effect 3. Sent me 360 version instead of PS3, sent it back and requested the PS3 version and they refunded me instead. Waited over a week for that debacle to be cleared up which really p*ssed me off, not used em since.

half.com is legit, just read the descriptions carefully. i mainly use it for textbooks but have had good luck with games. no paypal though, if that is a high priority for you

showtimefolks4179d ago

Glyde.com has awesome deals, you have to live in America though.

MooseWI4180d ago

I usually never buy games at full price anymore. Borderlands 2, Blops 2, Halo 4, all got discounted and more games at that.

BLAKHOODe4179d ago

Our Kmart is going out of business and has games 20% off right now.. I picked up Halo 4 lastnight for $45.

Trago13374180d ago

Half.com looks promising as hell, as i'm currently on the hunt for a very rare capcom game "The misadventures of Tron Bonne", so i type the name in, and wouldn't you know it, it's priced at $250! Darn! lol, well, the hunt goes on!

Fatty4180d ago

I got mine last year off of Amazon, complete, for 80 bucks (used). Motivated seller, I guess, because the next time I looked at the price for the game was 120+

MaleManSam4180d ago

ozgameshop.com for Australia peoples!

Rhythmattic4180d ago

+1 for ozgameshop.com

Been dealing with them since they were originally an eBay store....

Always good communication and have never let me down.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv7218h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
