Just called play as my account had a status of declined (nice of them to email me that info). They said as it was a high value item they had held the order and I needed to answer some account questions before they would process the order.

So, if you've ordered from play, I suggest you'd double check your account.

The VIP case which DBT showed pictures of is the best case IMO, you can get it from Amazon.

I have Amazon Prime I'd rather pay the bit extra and have it on release day.

The PSV screen is easy to scratch. No way in hell would I ever have anything like that pressing dust into the screen.

I have not read enough about it to know to be honest. But the case seems protective enough for me (The flap part). I carried the original PSP around with just a pouch that probably "pressed" dust into the screen but never scratched or blemished it.

I am just planing on using it while I commute and at home, occasionally. I know some people are going for screen protectors and Hard cases (like the VIP "glasses" case) but I think I can live without them and still manage to keep the handheld in decent condition. If it does pick up a small bit of dust or scracth, I doubt I will cry about it.

As do most things. Stick some dust/grit on a soft cloth and give it a gentle rub

Not sure if serious!!! I take good enough care of my stuff for this scenario to be a non-issue.

Looks like a pricing error, but jumped on it myself since they honoured the Revelations error.

Zavvi have BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extend for £19.95.

 

[rp2000]

Anyone know how the £5 off code you get with pre-order packs will work? I read somewhere that some people who pre-ordered (with that pack) from Game have got e-mails asking them what title they want the discount on and (presumably) they will get issued discount codes or something based on that.

What happens to people who just get their pre-order packs in the post or in-store? Will they have to wait around a few days? I did want to pick up Super Stardust on Day1 , with the £5 discount, ideally and I didn't want any of the other 3 games

Also (I think) someone on this thread or the old one worked for Morrison's? I wanted to know how they will handle their pre-orders? Do they buy enough per store to match the pre-orders so everyone can get their consoles on day one? I am planning to go in the afternoon so would be a bit annoyed if they have sold out or have no stock left!

Sister in law works in Morrisons, said to me yesterday was the last day to pre-order and that would guarantee you get the vita.

Cheers for the quick reply!!! Just hoping now they let me use the £25 voucher on the same trip so I can use it to get a retail game (probably Uncharted).

as long as it is a different transaction, sod all they can do

 

[rp2000]

I just want the soft sock type case the original psp came in, infact i wonder if i can force it in one

You need the Vita Starter kit. Comes with similar style pouch to PSP as well as another case, Strap, cloth, games case and screen protector. I don't think you can buy it on its own in EU.

You can see a picture of it here : http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=e...urce=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=ypk_T565JpHR8QPAhvS1CA

The Starter kit actually comes with 2 cases for some reason. A slip case and the official case.

Thats acually a nice little slip case..

 

[Strife212]

Yeah it's 2.0 of the original PSP slip case, best case by far.

 

[kinger8938]

hmmm now torn between getting the VIP case and the hori protector, or just get the starter kit?

i dont really intend on using it outside of my house tbh dunno what would be the best value for me

 

[MrMoonX]

played on one today, tbh its a bit meh and samey to the PSP with some improvements, graphics are good but I can't see it lasting, certainly wouldn't drop £200+ on it.

As i suspected it be good for a few weeks then gather dust
