RE: GAMECUBE questions...

dvdcrave.com do games at about 30 pounds, but I don`t know whether customes will stink you or not, as I haven`t bought any games from them yet!

RE: Any Gamecubes left in London???

this is strange, but last time I check, you could order them from carphone warehouse shops, and have it deliverd the next day, not sure whether there is any left now though.....

RE: BTTFT £I7.99/ £7.99/ £ 1 7. 9 9

do any of u know whether this will be a pure region 4 only DVD or a (commonly found australion) 2 & 4 region?

RE: SEGA DREAMCAST FAULTY! ANY ADVICE

RE: SEGA DREAMCAST FAULTY! ANY ADVICE

try looking for help at http://www.dcemulation.com/
its a good site for that sort of questions.

RE: Gamecube,ps2 or x-box?

All are good meachines, its the games that make a console, nintendo (with their rare) games tend to make the best of the lot, and the cube seems to be verry cheap too..

so possibly the cube has the edge at the mo.

RE: Console advice needed...!

Posissibly for the game types you have mentioned It`ll have to be a Game Cube.

The PS2 has lots more games, but only a hand full like GTA3, MGS & GT3 are good, most of them are a waste of money.

X-box, has halo, and halo alone.....

On the gamecube stick to nintendo, rare & sega games and they should be worth your money & time!

RE: 1 years free line rental for 39.99 from CPW on a 3310. !!!!!!!

People, so CPW have hnored their part of the deal well, and even sent the cheque out earlier than 3 months.

So don`t be tempted to lower your tariff, within the first 3 months and loose the commision to CPW from 121/t-mob, just wait till the 3 months is over from the day you phones up to connect, then, change it to a lower one.

RE: Gamecube Price Drop in USA

American prices are normally ex vat, as in most states you don`t pay tax, so u are looking at 117.7, which is only about 10 pounds cheaper.

RE: psone £49 quid!!

Its tooo old!

Not even worth 50 quid any more!

But a new SNES at 50, I ight go and buy it, just forthe nintendo quality games!

RE: New Playstation prices!?

the ps2 @ 137 is in the US.

RE: Bored of Star Wars Rogue Leader what next for the cube?

WaveRace:Blue Storm, like reply above is a very good game, takes a bit of geting used to on the controls, but ones you have masterd them its really good!

Its nintendo quality, no sudden stupid falls or attacks, everything is propotionaly right.

RE: Cheap Game cube games!

Yes, but play could do them cheaper, as they are an ex VAT company too, meaning you could get hit by customs too, why pay them more money??

Play could do stuff cheaper, as their prices are without vat, if u look at it like that, dvd crave still works out cheaper.

Cheap Game cube games!

The cheapest I`ve seen gamecube games on the net in the UK is at 35 quid!!

But if you order them from australia through www.dvdcrave.com inc postage it works out at around 29~30 pounds!!!!! and the aussi ones will work in UK GCs.

The bri shops are just money grabers!!

PS: don`t buy too many in one go, or the customes will get you, I would probably say buy only one at a time!

RE: 1 years free line rental for 39.99 from CPW on a 3310. !!!!!!!

" I was fuming when i got my first fone bill though"

why??????????????????
u are suposed to get a bill!

"line rental was actually £16 something(cpw didnt mention this. also i was charged for off peak calls to one to one fone when im supposed to get 500mins free ?"

its 15 in by DD or 16 if not, which it does state... And the 500 mins are to land line only... which is stated on the 121 tariff info.
Suery u looked at the tariff before you took up the offer, or did u not?

:-)

Cheap Nintendo Game Cube! (after the Nintendo price redux)

WHSmith are taking pre orders at 134.99!!!!!! the best price I have seen yet!!!

(even though the Nintendos RRP is £130, all other shops like EB / Game & GamePlay are still selling them at £160!!!!!)

Remember, WHS was/is the only store to sell the GBA at 59.99 on the high street!

Good for u WHS!!!

RE: FREE DVD ONLY £1.50 P&P NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD

but this was previously (2 wise) mentioned here about a month ago..

Its really good, get mario kart too, and you`ll love it!!!!!!

I think WHSmith do them for 59.99.

Region coding: 2 & 4. Will region code 4 discs work in region 2 players?

I have a Panasonic A160 Region 2 player (Not multi region), and recently seen "Cast Away" for cheap on the australion DVDCrave web site, and it said region 2,4. So I orderd it.

Got the DVD and in all the packaging it says region "4". No mention of region 2! But the disc still playes on my region 2 player!

How come?

Is it a region 2,4 disc labeled as just region 4? or do some/all region 4 discs work on region 2 players?

RE: Criterion discs on the cheap or just coincidence?

What are Criterion discs?????????????

RE: 1 years free line rental for 39.99 from CPW on a 3310. !!!!!!!

They are unlocked.

Your local store won`t do it, as its done through their warehouse in wednesbury to reduce the cost so they can afford to sell it to you.

RE: Godfather 5 disk box set still £29.97 at Comet

RE: 1 years free line rental for 39.99 from CPW on a 3310. !!!!!!!

Its not soo much to make money, but for them to have a high number of contract customers to show for the city, at the end of the financial year.

Rumer has it they bought nearly half a million Nokia 3310s from Nokia!!!!

A very good deal, but you only get the cheque back after 3 month.


Much Much better than any pay as you go option, and after 12 months u can just buy a pay as u go sim and continiue to use the phone without any line rental.
