Some great deals here - Inside and Limbo pack for $5 is a bargain!
I just wish i didnt HATE putting discs in now - if only you could buy the disc, then play digitally…

  This is what XB1 originally had planned at the 2013 announcement and then backpedal hard when everyone went apeshit.

    Also meant no preowned game market. That's where I get most of my games for cheap.
    - ozb88 on 30/06/2020 - 15:30
      
      PC has been like this for nearly 15 years and the console market has tipped towards digital sales for years. MS were ahead of the times
      
      EDIT: BTW, I have over 2000 physical titles across all platforms, while digital is convenient, it sucks for collectors. But that's just the current reality

        @ozb88: The difference is that on PC you have options to buy from different places at different prices. On console you're hard locked to the proprietary storefronts
        
        Forfiet on 30/06/2020 - 16:40
        
        @Faro: Yeah, I buy many games with DRM-FREE on PC…. Not really a n option for that on consoles…
        
        ozb88 on 30/06/2020 - 17:09
        
        @Faro: You're right, however there's ways that console digital stores can open up so you can purchase codes from retail/websites and they can run their own promotions/sales on the codes. Steam/Origin has been doing this for years
        
        Faro on 30/06/2020 - 17:31
        
        @ozb88: I feel like that would have to happen before an all-digital future becomes viable on console

        @ozb88: While it's true that it's possible for them to sell codes for digital downloads through physical retail, it's worth noting that Nintendo in Europe have actually just put a stop to this practice (for their first party titles, at least).
        
        https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-06-30-nintendo-halts…
        
        There's nothing to stop other publishers / platform holders potentially doing the same thing.
        
        ozb88 on 01/07/2020 - 15:31
        
        @AngusD: Terrible practice, monopolising the market.

Amazon has matched the price on some of these.

  Not true. Currently, the only one they have priced matched is The Evil within 2.
  Please share links so we can get free delivery.

Escapists 1 + 2, The Evil Within 2 & Anthem available on their eBay store if you prefer.

Unfortunately only items that are $15 or more have free eBay plus shipping.

PS4 Shenmue III Day One Edition is also still $15 from EB Games & Amazon.

Children of Morta is an excellent game - played it on Switch and enjoyed every second of it.
Kitoss7 on 01/07/2020 - 11:33

Got the Shenmue 1&2 for XBOX, receipt says new but the game totally is preowned, anyone else got the same?
- AngusD on 01/07/2020 - 12:18
  
  How can you tell? Is it in poor condition? I'd take it back and demand a new one or refund if it was sold to you as being a new one and is clearly not. At least if it bothers you, although if it's in OK nick and works alright then might not be worth the hassle for the sake of $10.
  - Kitoss7 on 01/07/2020 - 13:02
    
    It isn't that bad, but in the case I can see some marks and also the game include a poster inside that is been clearly used. As you said for $10 not sure if I will bother to go to the shop, but If I get confirmed that this is a common practice in this shop probably next time I will check other places to buy.
    - J6 on 01/07/2020 - 13:14
      
      It's common as you can return games after 7 days here and they can still class them as new
      - Kitoss7 on 01/07/2020 - 13:24
        
        @J6: Ok I got the point, but this game must been purchased and returned several times to look like this haha I think it is even difficult to get this worn out in 7 days

      It's common practice for EB games to sell new games already opened or possibly used. Unless it's a newish game or they happen to have extra copies at the back, then you'll likely get stuck with one of the few they had where the cover has been out on display - so they say.
      
      I recently purchased a new copy of Shadow Of Mordor and got stuck with a case that seemed to have bitten on the spine by a toddler! To be fair, the game was $5 and has been out for a while but they looked at me like an idiot when I asked for a new case.

        @Kitoss7: My favourite is when they don't have new copy of the game that's on sale in-stock and only have a pre-owned version….which can sometimes be more expensive! Yet, they'll refuse to sell you the pre-owned version at the discounted price of the new! 😆
