Not bad!
JB HiFi usually has new games on release day for $80-$85.


It is rediculous that EB games can still exist when they overprice everything.
Halo Reach was $119 on release day and i got it for $82 at JB

yes good price I ordered F1 2010 from same place for $65 arrived in a week from the UK...

I've ordered my Signature Edition at around $300 or something.

But it'll be worth it when I turn up to the next VWW event in my AMG SLS...

They still exist cause all the soccer mums and their kids go there. Although, they do have a 7 day return policy and JB don't. Not to mention, you can always get them to price match others.

STOIE,

Thanks for the heads up on this site mate. Just ordered F1 & GT 5!

Cheers,

Jayse.

No probs guys, just saw it and went for the kill.
And thought I would let all you other freaks (like me) know about it!

[STOIE]

JB are the only real store I buy from (apart from 2nd hand places).
Although, I still find they regularly have games at the $110+ price range. (maybe just a Canberra thing)

Buy most of my games 2nd hand though

Thanks for heads up. Can't believe it is only a few weeks away.

If i buy original games i get them from ebay. The last game i got cost me $65 (Buy it Now) including postage, at the time i couldn't find it cheaper than $119 in stores.

You can all ways...you know....mod your consoles

Sorry dude i had to look it up and get back up to date with it all because sony buying out a factory in china that makes usb sticks just sounds dumb. I dont understand how a company can buy a business that is not for sale, unless it was a company which it wasnt. Good luck shutting down a factory or company in china. People still don't know who actually wrote the code or made the original device.

SO what sony did was make it illigal to sell it in Aus...like it matters. What the hackers did was make it open source and put it on the net. So now you can use a smart phone or a usb key to hack your ps3. Besides that you can still get the 'illigal' stick overseas. They have patched it in the latest OS update, but as long as you dont update it will still work. Just like with any hack its just a matter of time untill the OS update is patched aswell.

Sony did pump a lot of money in to making it PS3 unhackable, thats why it took so long to do it. Now that its done they are pumping even more money in to sueing everyone who is selling it overseas, even ebayers. As well as suing them for selling it they are trying to sue for the use of 'PS' in the name of the devise and software.

Sorry mate but it's also getting harder to find one overseas. For example, in Hong Kong which was once (probably still is), THE place to get any console modded, the local feds caught on quickly and raided all the shops which sold it. They've now banned the selling and importation of the device and anyone caught faces huge fines and imprisonment.

Yes, you could get away with using it if you don't update the ps3's firmware but then you wouldn't be able to go online for multiplayer, game patches etc. Though it's not really a big deal if you don't touch the multiplayer side of things.

Got proof? China has never realy done much to counter piracy, why would they all of a sudden raid places and imprison people over a trivial issue such as console modding. You can still buy Jailbreak online but its not needed anymore as you can use Freedom and Groove which are not illigal to be sold in australia.

Why do you think Hong Kong is the place to get any console modded? If anything Europe would be the place. Most hacker teams arnt even asian.

PS3 sux online anyway, thats what xbox is for.
