    What Rakuten.co.uk like ?, anyone here use them ?.. was about to order MGSV for around 51e with the 10% off they're doing atm. But looking up reviews for the site are brutal.


    Was a great site back when it was Play.com and they were selling the items themselves, but now that it is just a marketplace it is nowhere near as good either in terms of deals or delivery times.

    I regularly use Rakuten.co.uk to get games delivered to Parcel motel, 90% of the time I will get the game a day before or on release day ( mad max and metal gear most recently). I have had good delivery times and prices with "TheGameCollection", "Base.com" and "SimplyGames" sellers.

    I just pre-ordered the Nathan Drake collection with the 10% off and use some points I had from the previous orders.

    Total £ 42.95
    Shipping Fee £ 0.00
    10% Voucher -£ 4.30
    Points Spent -395 Points
    (395 Points = £ 3.95)
    Order Total £ 34.70

    +1 for the Game Collection, great prices and you usually get the game a day or two before release with parcel motel.

    It may be just coincidence but quite a few people on Neogaf are saying that downloads speeds have improved since the new 3.00 update, they seem the same to me, but they rarely have been bad in the first place.

    Ive been re downloading a lot of games lately and i would say its got a lot more consistent than faster,in my case anyway. I seem to max download at 4mb/s,previously i would have to pause and restart a few times to get that speed and mid download it could drop off again. Now its much more likely to start and 4mb/s and now maintain it for the whole download. Which is nice.

    Also downloading a few things in paralell each download was maintaining 4mb/s,ie 3 downloads going,all @ 4mb/s. So the console was downloading @12mb/s overall which isnt too shabby. I dont like what seems to be a cap on individual downloads though,why not let me download one title at 12mb/s if your gonna let me download 3 at 4mb/s each?

    Still irks me though when steam downloads at over 21mb/s and that service is free!!

    Hey guys, quick question, I'm looking to get a PS4 and Fifa 16, no interest In any other games ATM apart from MGS.

    Which option out the two should I select? If I choose Destiny, I will sell the game and buy FIFA.

    http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/1222540.htm or http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/4485016.htm

    Thanks!

    €12 :-/ surely the 1st option Is best money wise? Are the two playstations the same?

    Buy the 1tb version with Fifa. When you work out the value of the trade in of the games , you end up with a 1tb console for about €10-15 more .

    From looking at the site that is the value for Destiny on it's own but the bundle includes the Taken King Legendary Edition which would be would quite a bit more as it includes the game, both DLC's and Taken King.

    Just a quick question. If I wanted to swap out and upgrade my PS4 HD to a 1TB version, what type/brand/spec would ye recommend?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,578 ✭✭✭EoinHef


    You should get near €50 for Destiny if its the taken king version,thats about what they are going for an adverts. If your going to sell it do it quick,wont be long before it de values

    If people used search function and even google as its a faster process than Boards. Instead of using Boards as a slower version of Google.

    Whats broken age like. Played for 30 mins with the guy and i was eating ice cream and all sorts of weird stuff. No idea what was going on


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,174 ✭✭✭ItsHoggie


    Is there anyway to purchase stuff of the US Store without using store credit? PayPal kept telling me my email/password wasn't correct so I tried adding my card with a US address but wouldn't let me either. All I want to buy is a theme so purchasing credit from amazon wouldn't be ideal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 220 ✭✭gryfothegreat


    Anyone know if I can buy credit for the PS Store in GameStop? I have a voucher and I want to get the DLC for Dragon Age

    It's a funny, well-written adventure game whose first half is better than its second.

    No, its a new feature of the new FW, it semi downloads the game to your dash should you decide to buy it... (pure waste of bandwidth)

    There is an option in settings to disable it, I think it may be under PS+ settings....
