Forza Motorsport 3 Limited Collectors Edition - ?10.45 @ eBuyer

For that price, it's an absolute bargain, as the DLC that comes with it costs a fair amount more than a tenner. Plus, you get the 2GB flash drive, which is about a fiver.

So... it's about time I got myself a copy of Halo: Reach ordered. What's the best deal that people have found for the standard edition (I'm not interested in expensive figurines etc). The code DM just posted for the Hut makes it ?33 there, has anyone found better than that?

Where can I get some cheap MS points?

The cheapest place I know is ShopTo - ?15.99, but they're not in stock in the moment. If you don't need it ASAP, I'd wait for them to get more in. It should only be a day or two. I'll ask them on Twitter.

Instant delivery isn't essential. Does that make a difference in price?

Well surprisingly, a 2100 points card costs ?16.63 with them. Those are in stock.

The best thing you should do though is wait for the codes to come back in stock, and then order it by SMS, so you get ?1 credit back on your account. :)

Sweet. I'll do that then, thanks for the heads up.

Well it's £15.63 from ShopTo with £1 off from SMS ordering, so...

Might be a bit early and there might be more competitive prices nearer release but...what's Black Ops's cheapest price? I saw £31.98 somewhere but it didn't look like a legit shop, and then prices stooped right up to £37. ¬_¬ Damn Activision and their high RRP.

Found it here, price is £31.99. Looking around the site now for other stuff.

Well, you can pay with PayPal but I think they take your money now rather than on dispatch. I don't even know if you'll get the game at all, anybody bought from Jack of All Games before?

Just found Halo: Reach too for £31.99. Link

Nice find there bud. Can anyone vouch for "Jack of All Games" with regards to pre-order delivery times though? I see that the first page of this thread says they take money on order not dispatch, but that doesn't bother me so long as I get the game on launch day (or earlier).

They say they aim to get games delivered within 1-5 days. For Halo, I doubt you'd see it on release day. With sites like that they always seem to send on release day.

As for COD from therr, would it really be worth buying it on release day? There's gonna bectons of connection issues and crap, best to wait a few days.

^ Couldn't be more wrong.

Small time retailers send out much earlier than the high street retailers who have to worry about MS/Ninty/Sony chasing them up for breaking street dates. These guys are pretty unknown if at all to the big 3. Plus online e-tailers have to meet the dates they advertise, so they send games in the post earlier to achieve street date. Usually overshooting the mark and delivering earlier.

Also, CoD: BO isn't worth buying, period.

Damn I got mixed up again : p Thanks for putting me right!

Black Ops is worth buying if you're going to play with your mates, which I will. You never know, it could be great. It might not be.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
