Tomb Raider on PC for £12 (download).

Far Cry 3 is reduced to £15 or 1760msp on the dashboard. 1760msp is about £12.50 if you buy 2100 for £15, which is typical. Unfortunately I think I only have around 1400msp - but I'm definitely going to have to look into getting this.

Asda are now doing the Wii U Basic SKU for £150 and the Premium for £200

If you plan to buy a fair bit of stuff from the eShop I'd say the Premium is better value due to the £5 vouchers you get, plus you get a sensor bar, charging cradle for the GamePad, stand for the GamePad for making video chats and extra storage space. 32GB holds a fair bit of stuff, I've got 2 retail games, 5 demos and I think 7 downloadable indie games from the eShop and still got around 2GB left which is pretty good going.

Mind you, even if some of you decide to take the plunge you've probably already convinced yourselves that you aren't going to like it lol.

You think we've decided we won't like it but we might buy it?   
Let me posit an alternative scenario... Because we know it's crap we won't bother wasting our hard earned on it.



 (Tis a good price if you're toying with getting one, though.)

[jman]

Nope, not budging.. if the premium was sub £100 - as that is all it is worth imo.. then I might be tempted for a casual adoption... but since that is unlikely to even happen in its lifetime, theres very little chance of me owning one.

Who wants to buy a Wii U now we know the big boys are on their way later this year anyway ? 

[Late]

Not far off that stance, myself.
Might be tempted if I saw a core one for around £110 (or premium one for around £140) this year - but I'm still not certain I'd get one at that price, and I doubt we'll see them at that price in 2013.
And if I'm buying a Playstation or Xbox next year it'd be silly to waste even £80 on a Nintendo in 2014, as it'd hardly get played.

Tomb Raider (xbox) is £17.95 at thegamecollection. Great price, and a great game by all accounts - but I'll leave it. It won't get played for a couple of months, and may well be cheaper by then.

Lmao what did you pay for yours??

£299.99 for the ZombiU bundle, but that's what happens when you get a console on launch day. Very happy with my purchase.

Heh might of left it too long.. went to buy this morning and when you get to the basket - it changes to £23.95 - so on principle Im not buying it now...

Should really try and do the backlog before continuing to buy more games.. maybe this is a sign!

Consoles are being heavily discounted at Blockbuster - but the discounts seem to vary from store to store, stock is very limited, and the discounts aren't all clear - so you need to check at the till.
There have been lots of people picked up deals such as:
3ds for £70
3dsxl for £90
Xbox 4gb with kinect for £80
Xbox 250gb with kinect for £105.

There's mixed and conflicting reports that the offer was a mistake and may have been pulled, but loads have gone through and continued to long after it was supposedly ended. Definitely worth a look if you want a console and find yourself near a Blockbuster...

Would've posted earlier but the office server went tits up and I've had no internet for most of the day other than my phone
