    For those who despite Harvey Norman or don't have a store with any stock, Amazon have now matched this - luckily I was able to cancel my order for it at $19, and was able to reorder for $16.

        Doh - that's what happens when you're half asleep when you type a comment :)

      Thanks I do despise HN except for when they are clearing out games lol.

      • What’s with the hate for Harvey Norman? Don’t give me this BS about GST. And what, y’all happy that Amazon is ripping into the Australian local economy but Harvey Norman is the devil?

        • +1

          Yeah I don't get it.
          Everyone on here seems to hate Harvey for some reason.

          But they fawn over Bezos' Amazon despite him being 100x worse.

            @putshan: I dare you try to contact customer service at Harvey Norman and get a response at all. We were in the chat queue for 6hrs, and then they responded and closed the chat after 5 mins for inactivity. Are you (profanity) kidding me? Harvey Norman are less than useless.

          It's more to do with its nature as a franchised business. Prices and service levels vary wildly across the stores, and it's rare to find a real bargain or even a decently priced product.

          Harvey campaigned for years to get 10% GST added to all imports which didn't win him many fans around year.

          The cost of recovering that ectra GST was barely expected to exceed collections, so there was no gain to anyone just less competition for Australian retailers.

          • @B3: So local business need to pay the GST but foreign ones should get a free pass?

    • +2

      Yeah not their biggest fan myself but might help others to price match them to JB etc as I don't have a prime membership so I don't get free del

    • Do you have the link for Amazon. I cannot seem to find it. Thank you

    I hated this game so much that I sold my ps4 after

    • Hahaha

      • +6

        did you deliver it on foot and on your back?

  • +7

    One of the top 3 best games I've ever played. I've been incredibly impressed by it.

    • +3

      Same! I didn't expect to love it as much as I do, but it just feels really rewarding to see people use my roads, or be able to thank others for building things i need

      (and then there's my spooky floaty mates who I do not appreciate)

    $17 at BigW.

    • Bargain! Rather shop at BigW than support Harvey Norman.
      Worth spending the extra $1 IMHO.

  • +2

    It's an incredibly decisive game, as can be seen in the comments.
    But for $16-19 this is no doubt a bargain!! I paid ~$70 not so long ago.

    For me, I thought it was a visual masterpiece with some genuinely scary moments. Some things drag on and can be slow paced but if you have patience and aren't after "over-the-top action" à la "Uncharted" then it's a great game.

      DS definitely fits into 'experiential' rather than fun. However I still thoroughly enjoyed it and rate it as one of the best hmmm…high brow games ever.

      I'd also understand if the Kojimaness of it put off a lot of people, even more so than the Fedex Simulator aspect.

  • +1

    Still gonna wait for cheaper. And probably not buy it then, anyway.

  • I wasn't interested in this, but for $16 from Amazon I'll give it a go.

  • Will EB or JB price match?

  • +1

    It's a good game with great soundtrack.

    • +1

      Those moments when you've embarked and the music tracks kick in……

  • Okay, so I'm stuck on this one. Still haven't played this game and I'm not sure I want to. At the same time I've a load of people say it's the best game ever. Is it worth first of all picking and secondly grinding through it?

    Currently playing Valhalla and love it (and that style of game).

    • +2

      Don't think you will like it if you prefer action styled game like Valhalla.

      I've also on the edge of picking this and recently done so through Amazon as the price has dropped.
      Definitely need an open mind to like it, but it's starting to grow on me and Kojima's vision on this (10 hrs in)

    They're dropping game prices faster than I can play them! Anyone can recommend a good hard drive for PS4?
    Had to delete Cyberpunk to play other (non broken) games.

      🦉 Just make sure it's a USB3 hard drive/SSD. It won't let you use USB2 as extended storage. If it's an SSD you'll get faster loading speeds but not much more. eg. instead of a 40s loading for a Witcher 3 save, you'll get 30s loading. I used to only get Western Digital hard drives but have opened up with SSD but it's still good to go with the trusted brands like SanDisk, WD, Crucial, Samsung, etc.

    One of the most memorable games I’ve ever played. Had no desire to play it, sat on it forever, then one day I put it on on a whim, and was absolutely absorbed. Not for everyone, but as gamers you need to see for yourself just incase.

    • +2

      Played it yesterday and today and I'm hooked from the start only about 3ish hours in but I'm drawn to it I don't actually mind all the walking the music and graphics just keep you going !

    Wait wasn't this brand new a few months ago??

    • +1

      Yes but for PC. This is the PS4 version that was released a year ago.

      • gotcha cheers

  • Sold out on Amazon.
    JB Hifi pricematched me though.

  • how the mighty have fallen

  • Just allergic to HN. Paid a dollar more at big w instead.

      Rookie… I went to JB and they price matched HN
