In relation to HMV cutting prices on their Game Cube Stock can anybody confirm what the score is with HMV in Oxford Street and what prices stuff is please.

I am off work on Wednesday and am considering making the trip into Town if its going to be worht it.......

They seem to have removed all mention of the offer from the website now. However, if you enter 'FIFTEEN' in as the Voucher code when completing checkout it still applies the 15% discount.

I think the offer is valid 'til midnight tonight. ?34 a pop for 360 games can't be bad - beats Game's prices by a tenner.

If you go to the home page the 15% promo is still showing.

A number of Games are very cheap (?17.99) and a number of accessories too. I haven't used the website myself, but if anyone gives em a try, let us know how your transaction goes.

I know there are some Saturn-fans here, seems Play-Asia has got some retro games in, but I'm sure the hardcore people already have those listed.

Edit:

This week's special at Play-Asia is Poncotsu Roman Daikatsugeki Bumpy Trot for PS2 (NTSC-J) at $8.90 (down $51!).

Poncotsu Roman Daikatsugeki Bumpy Trot is set in an industrial world where automobiles have just started to become popular. One of the recent inventions rising from the industrialization is a multi functional two-legged mech robot that can be used for all kind of tasks, including transportation, repair works, farming and even battle.

You play as a young 17-year old buy, called Vanilla Beans who has lost his memory after being a victim of a shipwreck. By using and customizing your own Trot vehicle, you explore the world you have been stranded into trying to discover back your identity.

Your Trot can be powered up and customized during the game, learning new skills and so on. Bumpy Trot however is no mechwarrior game, but more an adventure RPG mix with a deep storyline, lots of voice acting, charming characters and a great amount of freedom.

Must admit, I've never heard of that one... anyone here played it?

Wow thats fantastic!

Bumpy Trot has been on my buy list for a while and sounds like an excellent game, although one which might be hard to get through because of the Japanese text.

It is said to be similar to Shenmue, in the sense that you control a character who has the freedom of an entire town, the gameplay seems to mix rythm action, rpg, adventure and several other genre's. Sounds quite cool, gotta be worth a look for $9 !

That CD-Wow 20% off link posted paaages back has finally died - it was working up 'til yesterday, I think. You get dumped at a Smartsave card number input screen now.

Ah well. Good while it lasted.

I've used them for memory purchases. Super smooth on 2 occassions.

Damn, I wished I'd known that - I stupidly assumed it had died soon after it was announced here.

Thanks to whoever it was that posted the Gradius V ?9.99 form Play.com link, mine arrived today and I bloody love it.

[The Mole]

I ahve been told by Greenshirt (who working HMV) that all the mentioned games are on offer at the Metrocentre branch. However they are not ditching Gamecube just yet these are just sale items.

All resident Evil 4 went to staff members and all Donkey konga were gone in a couple of hours.

However they did have some Mario Party (didnt say what version or price) and Terminator for ?6.99 as of Sunday.

[Miguel007]

Good, Good - Thanks Mole - I'll go and have alook now.

[TonyDA]

Both Brighton HMVs have some GC stuff cheap.

Mario Party 6 - 19.99
Kirby's Air Ride - 14.99
1080 Snowboarding - 8.99
Metroid Prime 2 - 19.99

They were the ones that stuck in my mind, but there were others.

[krispyk]

Managed to pick up Mario Party 6 and Donkey Konga Jungle Beat (with bongos) for ?14.99 each today at HMV.

There does seem to be some differences in price at various HMV stores at the mo...

Now all I need to do is get Zelda Four Swords at a reasonable price and I'll be happy.

On another note its a shame that the CD WOW link doesnt work anymore.
Thankfully I pre-ordered loads and have a few items from them already.

A big

to whoever found this marvellous link!!!

Didn't really know where to put this, but you can get a free Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood demo from here: http://www.brothersinarmsgame.com/uk...erfordemo.html

This turned up yesterday, thanks for the link. Looks to be a pretty good game.
