Yep, plenty of cheap PS3 games can be found on UK sites like CDWOW. I've used this site and others (www.dvd.co.uk & www.thehut.com) numerous times and will likely never purchase locally again. With free shipping, they (CDWOW) make for an even more attractive option.

LittleBigPlanet $59.95
http://www.cdwow.com...ct/view/3700006

Resistance 2 $73.95
http://www.cdwow.com...ct/view/3700008

Motorstorm 2 - Pacific Rift $61.95
http://www.cdwow.com...ct/view/3842175

Mirror's Edge $59.95
http://www.cdwow.com...ct/view/3846310

Dead Space $51.95 (This is the Game of the Year)
http://www.cdwow.com...ct/view/3500310

A lot of 6 month old games around the $30 mark too.

I ordered from the hut (360 game) 3 days ago and they are still "processing" my transaction!? DVD.CO.UK processed and dispatched a game order in one day, long story short it will take amazing prices to get me to order from the hut again.

The also charge 50% more than DVD.CO.UK for postage, hutt needs to lift their game.

I'm going to check out amazon.uk but something tells me their postage prices will be outrageous.

Last Remnant for 26 pounds including shipping.

Works out to about $60 with the current exchange rate.

[JimmyGamesEnter1]

Not everything online is cheap, just some of the stuff they've got. BTW, I don't buy online multiplayer games like MGS4 because they have region restrictions or something. Anyways, please let us all know any good deals out there online or local.

Would be keen to find this out too - being an Aussie website I guess I (perhaps erroneously) assumed it was local shipping. Just bought Dead Space and Singstar Abba (presents for me and my wife respectively). I got the email confirming my order and suggesting that 'rest of world' (which is everyone but UK and US) might be waiting 7-10 days.
I've had it sent to my office address and by my count including today there are only 7 business days before Christmas!

Just slightly off-topic (sorry), can you the standard GHWT or RB (aka Logitech) mic with Singstar ABBA?

[mcduck]

me decided today that i want to offload the pink DS i've had for almost a year and never used
baby told me that eldest wants the new animal crossing game
here's hoping it's the DS one and not the Wii she's after
means i'm gonna have to buy another game
but on the plus side, if she's willing to ' borrow ' the DS long term i finally get my white one   
so now i got to hope, and start watching for a decent game bundle     
so if anyone notices any bundles going with Animal Crossing or a decent RPG, you know where to find me

Unfortunately it MUST be the Singstar mic afaik - it doesn't recognise the GHWT mic & asks for Singstar mic...

[ronburgundy]

Oh no! I've bought JUST the game, assumed I could use a GHWT mic
Singstar mics can be bought on their own... right?!

I am in Sydney and delivery is normally under a week. CD Wow ship from Hong Kong regardless of which country site you purchase from.

Unsure, BUT you can buy Singstar PS2 with mic's and it will work - Singstar PS3 SUPPORTS BC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://threespeech.c...s-compatbility/

PS2 singstar is ~half the cost of PS3 - but mics are wired not wireless...

[Art Vandelay]

http://www.dvd.co.uk...853/product.htm

LittleBigPlanet for 17.99 pounds plus 1 pound shipping.

With a currently pretty decent conversion rate, will cost about $45.

[JimmyGamesEnter1]

A few days back I noticed CDWOW had Fallout 3 ps3 for $60 posted, its not out of stock now. They are increasing prices for some reason. Anyways you can pickup Turok for a good price $32.95.

I thought the PS3 mics were wired anyway?! Oh well, thanks for the heads-up

[Shazbot]

In UK ATM most consoles games are <30gbp & under.  I know that SHOPTO.NET is currently doing Res 2, LBP & Motorstorm 2 for 19.99.  What with the strong aus to the gbp there are bargains to be had

Yeah I'd bought Singstar Abba and Dead Space for a combined $92... I logged on yesterday to check my status and it said my order totalled around $130. WTF?! So I clicked on it - I paid $39.95 and $51.95 respectively. Current prices are $42.95 and $82.95!
Both have been dispatched too, so there's every chance I'll get them before Christmas thankfully. Looks like I got in just in time!

And on her shopping trip Duckie found that BigW have the Animal Crossing/Wii Speak bundle for $108 dollars............normal price.

Edit: although BigW at Eastland (Vic) didn't have any when I called them.

i am so over the shopping
it was a jungle in there
but i am now the proud owner of the Animal Crossing  and Wii speak bundle for $108 ( see above )  

and got the Wii and Animal Crossing on layby
eldest didn't want it and the deal was too good to pass up
so it will be for my PS2 room
bet the current Wii goes walkies on the weekends in the near future   

and a big Thankyou to Kazz for taking the time to post so all you bargain hunters had a fighting chance

Sup everyone, CDWOW has got PS3 Dead Space for $40 posted

[ronburgundy]

WTF?! That sucks! I paid $51.95 for it less than a week ago, then it went up to $82.95! Oh well... I suspect this is for the people that don't need it before Christmas. That's a bloody good price!
