The first few rows look like the usual PC games you couldn't give away, but it gets better with PSP games around the £5 mark, 1-2 year old console games for slightly under/above £8... I'm posting it here since it may only last until midnight ;)

First of all, a lot of the offers mentioned above are still available by the look of it.

Secondly, there's this:

PlayStation Network users offered 2 free PS3 games for suffering down time, PSP users also

God knows what they'll be like :|

Try The Hut (they're almost identical if not the same company), they hadn't brought in the delivery charge when I looked a few days ago but that was then... :|

Also, you might just find it's a fiver there anyway :? ;)

Aye that's the thing, look like good prices until you add on the postage. Mind you if you buy a bulk of stuff it's not a problem.

Thinking of starting my bluray collection with XI though. That, Blade Runner and Serenity. Just coming up with ideas for what else I need to own on bluray now that I can find at bargain prices :)

I rented it on BR, very good in every respect (film itself, output quality) :D

I only own a few BRs since their prices are often laughable, I see little benefit in terms of picture personally and, increasingly, I'm thinking 'Would I actually buy a proper player once the PS3 eventually dies?' :?

It's hard to get cheap and the film could do with a little more plot, but the Transformers film (the original, not the Godawful sequel) is a brilliant BR, as is the 'remastered' Predator.

I must admit I watched the first two resi films on DVD and the PS3 upscales nicely TBH, noticed the difference straight away. Whether I'd see much more improvement with BD I'm not sure.

I'd take out one of those 30 day Lovefilm trials if you can mate ;)

I'm not sure what I've been doing right (different card numbers?), but I'm still eligible for them despite Lovefilm buying up/being part of other companies! Also, I can send them to my sister's house round the corner ;)
