The prices are decent already, so if there are a couple of games you want later this year you could get an extra 7.5% off by ordering them together.

Finishes tomorrow.


You are a star. Preordered Mario Maker.

Anyone know how this works when they take the money for the first games? I pre-ordered 2 games at 38.95 each, will they add the discount to both so that they debit £36 each time?

It'll depend on the payment method you've gone for I think. Paypal is different as far as I'm aware, but when I've ordered in the past and put it on credit card they have charged the discounted amount for each game as they sent them out.

Cool, I used my debit card and I pre-ordered a few more games from them (Saints Row 3, Red Fraction Remastered, Among the Sleep, Mutant Year Zero all on Switch) with SR3 coming this week, i’ll see what the charge is.

It got absolutely hammered in reviews for being an empty boring world where the fights are too spaced out and characters had their unique weapons removed to be sold as dlc. Like Lu Bu, this one is not worth pursuing.

Pretty much true, Trelliz! It's not quite as bad as some make out, though; it has a Metacritic rating of 65 from 49 reviews. But, yeah, it is diferent to the previous titles in the series and the openworld nature does make for some long trudges between fights. I still picked it up :toot: .

I think PayPal is taken a few weeks before the games release. Vaguely remember that happening when I pre-ordered with them last time.

RE PoE: It was last on sale between 3/4 and 2/5, for £15.99/£11.49. It's often on sale, so if you'd rather grab it at that sort of price then just wait for it to hit a PSN sale again.

I see that Shakedown Hawaii is discounted on there - guess that's only for the PC version? Was hoping to get it on the Switch :shifty:

I think they've got the John Wick game that looked quite interesting up for pre-order at £4.99 or something equally ridiculous.

If Epic wants to take on Steam, this is how they should be doing it. Massive discounts instead of buying exclusives.

Not that I'm interested in any of them, but those are some fantastic prices for those that are.
