Charlie Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 £130 for one game? No thanks. That's 23 hours (ish) at minimum wage. I really can't see how they can justify selling it at this price. The £65 I paid for GH2 was pushing it but this is just ridiculous.
gmac Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 so as the games out this coming Friday thought I'd get this thread back up, any one still picking this up or are most people waiting for the inevitable pre christmas price cuts?
Roostophe Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 I've been waiting a bit too long for my liking. I ought to be getting it very soon after release date.
gmac Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 I'm very tempted to just order the instruments from play at £100 as they're shipping already
Gizmo Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Can't decide whether or not to buy it now. I'll probably wait for a price cut, even though I have the money for it now if I wanted to get it.
Chuck Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 They're shipping at play? crap! i dont have enough money! There is a 5% voucher and £2 voucher in the trade section for play.com EDIT Why are the instruments in stock but not the game? thats no good.
Babooo Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 nope still not getting it. Not really too bothered as I'm pretty damn busy with all the exams coming up.
Moohawk! Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 Nope. I planned on getting this as soon as it came out but I was expecting it way back at the start of the year. The hype for it has died down inside me, been waiting too long and the price is simply too much ESPECIALLY when compared to the US pricing. Utterly ridiculous. I'll probably get it eventually but I simply couldn't afford it anyway now.

NotAshley Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 I'm still as hyped up as I ever was but £180 is too much. Even if you got the game in the bundle, £140 or whatever it is is still way too pricey for a game.
Noodleman Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 I'm getting the game, will just have a 2 man guitar band with me and a mate for now. Will look to pick the Drums up next year possibly.
Domstercool Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 I already have 2 guitars for the 360, so I've just got Rock Band for £37.99 and the Drums for £44.99, wooo for game points! Can't wait to drum out to Metallica!
Chuck Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 Just cancelled my order just incase they want to ship early and used another card with the discounts on the trade boards. Got the Instruments for £95 and the game for £38:)
Domstercool Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 My Drums have been posted, just need to wait for the game to be sent off now!
Dyson Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 My Game is Packing and my instruments are processing Does that mean they won't be here tomorrow?
Hero-of-Time Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Apparently HMV are doing the instruments + game + 2100 MS Points for 150 quid.
Guest Stefkov Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Apparently HMV are doing the instruments + game + 2100 MS Points for 150 quid. I checked the website and all I saw was a deal for £159.99. It didn't look like it had points with it. S'pose the text was a bit small on my touch though. hmv takes ages to load on that thing.
McPhee Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Apparently HMV are doing the instruments + game + 2100 MS Points for 150 quid. If thats in store i'll probably be buying it on friday I've decided im not gonna order off the net, just gonna check out the price at work and tesco on friday and see if i can get GS to pricematch (for the trade-ins)
bmoose Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 I wanted it badly at the start of the year but the hype has died down for me now. Will probably wait until it is under £100 for the lot before considering it.
Guest Stefkov Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 How will this game actually come to the point of being under £100? Unless you get it from America it's annoying that people think it'll be that low.
Domstercool Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Seems the game was posted today too. Tomorrow will be Dom smashing drums along to songs, WOOPE!
Dyson Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Instruments get! Bloody huge box O_O Just waiting on Royal Fail to come along and ruin my day by not bringing my game.
Djstawberryjam Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Instruments get! Bloody huge box O_O Just waiting on Royal Fail to come along and ruin my day by not bringing my game.
