Crackdown for €22

koneko

... plus postage (which is normally only 3 euro ish?). Region free, box art is not the same. Seems to come with the Halo 3 beta offer! (at least, according to the page):

That's the NTSC version - will it play on a PAL 360 ?

Q_Ball

if you scroll down a little bit the pal box is ticked in the further compatibility section.

just ordered me one now, cheers OP!!!

koneko

Yep, Play-Asia will put the tick marks in to indicate if it'll work on your console, PAL is ticked so you're good to go (it also lists it as having "No region protection").

That's deadly altogether! Cheers for that Koneko.

$33 including postage, according to www.xe.com that converts to €24.25!

I was sitting on the fence regarding that game as I have enough to get through already, but that has convinced me.

savemejebus

have that version myself and it had the halo 3 beta offer. Great price for a fun game

Thanks for the heads up koneko (don't forget to post it on the Bargain Alerts forum and the Game bargain thread in Games too!). I was waiting to finish another few games before I got a new one, but the price is right

Top man! Thanks for the link!

Hell I would pay that just to play the beta!

The game is short, and lacks any real story, but its deffo worth that! One thing I wil say about it is that is is very good fun, and real asy to pick up and play. and dont forget the H3 beta

Thats the reason I want it. I thought the demo was crap and just want the beta.

I thought it does, but meh who cares, I'm not actually bothered bout it

kearnsr, re: vat. I'm not sure, but it might fall just under the limit. It's only one game though so it's very unlikely they'd stop it, it's usually boxsets and multiple items that get stopped (bigger packages).

Crackdown is a solid game, and good fun. Bit like GTA mixed with a Marvel game, running around town jumping from building to building and smacking people around. And it doesn't hurt that this comes with the Halo 3 beta, at least it should according to the page!

I thought the demo was rubbish too, but the actual game is pretty good. Sadly, it's pretty much the same thing over and over again, but it's great fun jumping from building to building, beating the crap out of people.

Sure for €25 its worht it for the demo of Halo 3

was thinkin about ordering some good games on videogamesplus,
i was thinking rockstar table tennis for 20 euro,
coudl anyone else recommend a fun game, i was thinking about perfect dark zero but not sure what its like.

Any recommendations?

koneko

If you're going to order 360 games from videogamesplus, bear in mind they're NTSC, and not all games are region free.

Do a search in Google, there are a few pages that list ones that are region free, IIRC neither of those are.

kensutz

There is a region free section in VG+

shortys94

thanks kensutz, yea table tennis is region free, well thats what they say, any other recommendations? FEAR????

Want a fun game, or just somehting good

They come from Japan, which is NTSC-J. They will work over here.

Meant to post up earlier , but I got it in the post a few days ago. Has the Halo 3 beta too. Mine has NTSC-J on the box, works perfectly.

To answer the question, Yep it did have ntsc-j and as the good poster said, yes it does work in the 360! Happy days
