Bargains

[Late]

game.com currently have a promotion offering £5 off a £50 spend. Nothing unusual there, except it applies to gift cards - and that's extremely unusual.

So if you put £50 worth of GAME vouchers in your basket then use the code VCUKJUL132 it'll cost you £45. You can do it repeatedly as a guest without logging in, and you're fine to use just one email account.

Net effect is around ten percent off nearly everything. e.g. you could pay £315 for a ps4 (buying £350 vouchers), or pay £390 for an xb1 (by buying £400 vouchers for £360, and paying the rest cash)

Risen 2 Gold Edition
Sacred 2

If you beat the average (currently £3.23) you'll also get SR3's DLC, and Dead Island GOTY.

Game have Resident Evil Revelaitons for the PS3, 360 and Wii U for £19.99. The PS3 SKU is currently out of stock though. The best Resident Evil game released in years, pisses all over 5 and 6 and is more of a typical Resident Evil game than 4 for you purists out there.

You'll probably end up getting it for around 16 quid or so with Flubit.

[harv]

Oh well, it was good while it lasted. Looks like Flubit have taken a big backhander from Amazon and starting tomorrow they're only taking demands from Amazon.co.uk. Terrible decision, Amazon rarely have the cheaper deals on stuff like video games and Blu-Rays so I can't see myself using that site again.

[harv]

Am giving it a test run. Rocksmith 2014 is available on Zavvi for £27.98, the cheapest deal online. Amazon have it for £39.99 lol, so I'd need a deal with more than 25% off just to match the Zavvi deal. I can't see this ending well...

With the old Flubit I'd probably end up getting it for less than £25 quid.

[harv]

Nope, didn't end well at all. Got back an offer of £35.24 which is probably at least a tenner more expensive than the offer I would have got from the old Flubit. Bollocks, it was good while it lasted I guess

Played/Owned them all already 

[Late]

I bought them, even though I don't do pc gaming and my computer might struggle with them. And I don't have Origin. Or Steam. Must look into those at some point.

I assume that if I set Origin/Steam up at some point in the next couple of years I'll have a few games ready to play.
Is it just a program you download, that lets you access a library - which has hundreds of games, and a few of them I'll now have free access to by putting codes in?

If I never play them it's a little bit of a waste, but at £3.33 I've not exactly broken the bank. I've paid a lot more for single games that have sat unplayed on a shelf for years.


Over $3m in sales in the first 14 hours. 2 weeks to go.
Apparently more games will be added to the bundle next week, btw.

They are both just dashboards to a store and your own library of games you own through them.  Inputting a code will tie the games to your account, so you can log into your account from any pc and re-download the games if you need to at any time.  I log into my steam account at home and work.. so I can play my full set of games at both locations.

[Late]

Thanks Kieron.
I'll get it set up this weekend, and redeem the codes in case they have an expiration date - than download them when I'm ready to play them.

[harv]

The first Witcher game is available on Steam with 75% off, and It's the Enhanced Edition whatever that means lol. Can't go wrong for £1.75.

[Late]

Reminds me - I really must get Witcher 2 played. It's been sat on that shelf for bloody ages. Witcher 3 is out soon.

[Late]

EA have now added "C&C Red Alert 3: Uprising" and "Populous" to the bundle - if you've beat the average donation - which is a shade under $5.

So approx. £3.30 will now get you Dead Space, Dead Space 3, Crysis 2, Burnout Paradise, Medal of Honor, Mirror’s Edge, The Sims 3 (with 2 expansion packs), Battlefield 3, Red Alert 3 Uprising, and Populous.
Outstanding!



Little surprised they didn't add Dead Space 2, mind...
