Just ordered Demon's Souls from Yesasia for about £43 (found a coupon online, giving me $5 off). Should take about 2 weeks to arrive so lets put this to the test. Am a little excited as it's my first time importing a game.

Importing gives you a good feeling. I remember importing SSBB and thought of it as a kind of 'F*** you' towards Nintendo of Europe.

There is a ton of other stuff I want, but sadly the Wii is not region free and I dont want to mess around with homebrew or disk swapping, so for now, the ps3 is yet again going to receive my love. If you do order anything from yesasia is the next four days, use this coupon. What I used to knock off $5. Coupon Tried ordering from Play-asia, but they are firstly out of stock, and secondly, they aren't delivering Demon's Souls to the European Union.

They won't ship anything Sony to the EU because of what happened to lik sang;

 

In August 2005, the company was once again in legal trouble, this time from Sony. Lik-Sang had imported PSPs from areas where they were available, and re-exported them to UK customers before the UK release date, which Sony alleged was a breach of their trademark rights.[3] Lik-Sang continued shipping PSPs, claiming Hong Kong's laws allow an item to be traded freely once it appears in a market anywhere in the world.

On October 18, 2006, the High Court in London (Patents Court) ruled the shipments were indeed in breach of Sony's rights.[4] The following day, Lik-Sang posted a message on their website claiming they had been forced out of business due to Sony's legal action. Sony responded in a statement[5] saying that Lik-Sang had not contested the case, thus incurring no legal fees, and had not paid any damages or costs to Sony. However, Lik-Sang replied once more that their legal representatives spent over a year to contest the UK's court jurisdiction and tried to defend against Sony's allegations of parallel importation and copyright infringement, and that Sony launched duplicate actions in different countries. According to Lik-Sang's final statements,[6][7] two different judges expressed their surprise about the high legal expenses claimed by Sony.

 

So play-asia clearly don't want to run that risk.

 

Caris have you tried Amazon Used stuff? I remember looking for that battery a while back and they were selling on there...

Yeah FarCry 2 is awful. The controls are half as precise as Killzone and it never felt like I was getting anywhere. As for the online mode... Shite is the word. Slightly laggy an doesn't feel rewarding. Plus deathmatces have rubbish spawns where you always get shot from behind.

 

It is just as well I am borrowing it. Me and my friend occasionally go on it just to do some team kills, it never gets old. It just teaches the userbase to stop playing it lol. If I cared about the stats I wouldn't play it, but when you can fun round RPGing your team in the face and then going Rambo with a knife you can't fail to have fun.

I had a bit of fun with Far Cry, not online though, that was poo. But I quite enjoyed the open world shooter. It was just over hyped and under delivered, similar to Killzone 2.

i thought far cry 2 took hours to finaly get going, but yeah, it felt kinda dull if you didnt play it in the intended way (ironic for an open world game i think!

 

basicly, the intended way to play was to stalk your pray, scout places out and take your time to be stealthy.

 

still sold it cos id never play again.

Yeah and the adding colour green into the logo.

I was thinking earlier, not sure if this is a good idea or not, but could we like, invite people from other forums to come over here? The other consoles board has been pretty dead recently and I thought it might be a good idea if we scouted around to find some good people to join in discussions and stuff - get a few new faces ya know?

Yeah I thought the April Fools may have actually claimed a few victims.

What forums are meant to be good?

 

I'm on 1up.com and destructoid, n4g. They are all fairly decent but getting people to come here would be hard going lol.

That would actually be fun - Internet judges. Ask for wit, if you don't get it, move onto the next forumer.

And yeah it would be hard trying to convince people to change forums because it's another place to settle into. Although it's easier when you unnecessarily change your font colour :)
