might have to buy uncharted again for the trophies, and rachet looks like a good buy to.

it should also bring down the 2nd hand cost of them :cool:

If I buy a PS3 from Canada, most games (excluding the platinum) are region free right?

The Platinum box art has always looked ****.

Awesome.

Will pick up motorstorm, R&C, Resistance and Uncharted when I get another PS3

I thought you could already get most of those games for those prices without the horrid cases?

Think ive seen a few of them for special offer prices off around £25-£30, pre owned about the 20 mark. So your getting a new game for the price of a preowned one, i still recall seeing many preowned games being sold for more than the platinum range in the same shop, used to make me smile.

If i remember rightly wasnt platinum reserved for the high selling games? so the more a game sold the bigger likely hood of it apperaing in the plat range, a year or 2 down the line?

TheStig1 · 17 Jul 2008 at 22:59

well the 2nd hand ones will be cheaper now for these games

I've seen some cheaper than that such as Motorstorm or Resistance. I've seen Uncharted go for £20 on HUKD. Suppose it's nice to have a level of consistency on the prices now.

BFCTom · 17 Jul 2008 at 23:04

Ratchet and Clank was £14.99 at a certain shop last week.

EDIT: Just checked and it still is.

TheStig1 · 17 Jul 2008 at 23:05

i got motorstorm and resistance for 2 for 25 i think it was and uncharted for 20 pre owned

KNiVES · 17 Jul 2008 at 23:06

I'm definitely gonna nab Ratchet & Clank and Uncharted.

cb_linus · 17 Jul 2008 at 23:24

I thought the packaging was different now (with the red hd-dvd look, as in sony's e3 presentation).

I think the fact that most of these games can be had £20 or less on the 2nd hand market is gonna end up pushing the prices of the 2nd hand games down even further if the price of the game new is £19.99

carlazai · 17 Jul 2008 at 23:27

Shops around here have resistance for £12 second hand
