I wouldn't get your hopes up, as this one turned up about a month after the ?10 ended.

Oh did it? Seemed much shorter than that. Never mind eh!

I'll stick with my ShopTo pre-orders then (might cancel and re-do them via txt to get an extra ?1 in the account).

Nice to see retailers undercut the RRP, ?20 is fairly generous.

Wonder if it will ever get near ?199 in retail... I might bite at that price.

My mate is manager at blockbuster and they are going to be giving away retail copies of arkham asylum with their ps3 slims at ?250 in store only at blockbuster this tuesday.

I know it should have gone in the deals section but figured this to be such a good deal anyone in UK would want to know about it.

Enjoy. Ohh they also do ?260 plus ANY game but thats pants if you ask me. You can just return arkham asylum for infamous or something straight swap, which I'm going to do as Ive already completed arkham asylum on 360 and must say its the greatest f'n game this year!

Its just the fact that I acknowledged that thread in my post. He didn't contribute anything at all to my thread you know. Its just going to cause arguements, the real mod may aswell just lock this now before it gets out of hand.

I thought it was a pretty ice cold deal and a lot of people might benefit from it.

I originally ordered my console ?250 online with nothing. I've since cancelled to pick up this baby on tuesday.

I think you're overreacting a little. As for whatLivin in a box >said, there's no rule stating that you have to post any deals pertaining to the PS3 or PS3 games in that thread. Heck, it may even be better to create a new topic about it. That way, people can find it easily rather than having it get lost in the sea of posts within the deal thread. Anyway, let's just forget about it.

I think it's a great deal. It's better than buying a PS3 with no game(s) at all. And according to my brothers,Batman: Arkham Asylum >is an amazing game. We managed to get a copy while it was on sale for 56% of the suggested retail price.

I think the PS3 has exclusive Joker DLC, so maybe you want to keep it for PS3 and sell the 360 version?

Yes, it does have the Joker as a downloadable character; however, you can only play as him in challenge maps. Plus, he beat the game already. He might as well get inFAMOUS.

I was going to add something constructive in my post, but I pressed the post button too early. No need to get mad over it TBH.

It's a pretty good deal; I've played a bit of the demo, and it was OK.

Does the world trust ShopTo again yet? I'm not sure what to think. But then again I've heard of people getting stung via a leak at Play.com so it seems that nowhere is safe anymore. :/

I'm pretty bitter over getting done for fraud, but to be honest these sorts of things will rarely happen twice and I will most likely use ShopTo again. When they have a good price you cannot beat free next day delivery compared to the slow ass speeds of Play/Asda/The Hut and all the others.

Plus if you're wanting a Slim they're by far the best deal at ?230.

If you don't trust ShopTo, slim for ?229.99 here

Although to be honest the deals at ?250 with a free game/movie are probably better value for money.

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
