God of War Collection PS3

TitusBallsac

A load of people have been asking me about this game - it's not getting released over here in Europe until Jan at the earliest. However, as the PS3 games are multi-region, I ordered it on import from ebay (amazon wouldn't ship over here!). I should have it in a few days - Ill let ye know how I get on with it! Can't wait!

There is a quite a few on here getting it too. It's not just you. Video Games Plus FTW.

Disappointing all right - still at that " Preship Status No Cancellations". To be fair to the, though, Assassin's Creed 2 has the same release date (today) and that was shipped on Friday. I guess it's a stock issue as they do usually ship the Friday before release (which are usually Tuesdays).

Axelmusic havn't shipped mine yet either!!

Try videogamesplus.ca - postage is usually another €5, or more for larger/heavier than normal items (collector's editions, controllers etc.):

Mossy Monk

WellyJ

Mine arrived yesterday from VG+ I'm really impressed with what they have done with the game, it really does look a lot better at 720p and it's getting me in the mood for GOW3

BeansBeans

Ya it does look great, im surprised by it. Never played GOW before so im absolutely loving it, got to play it for a couple of hours last night.

The GOW3 demo is amazing as well cant wait for that.

chrislad

Sadly I won't be able to play it due to PS3 going YLOD for the second time in 3 months :mad:

Sorry to hear that ,to be honest I only played the demo twice because it was so short.

The demo is more of a teaser ,it's only about 15-20 mins of play.
The god of war collection is worth getting though ,it's definetly a game I'd hold onto.

Does anyone get caught for vat and duty on orders from videogamesplus.ca or are you paying vat etc on this? Love to get GOW on the PS3.

witnessmenow

Normally as well I'd get post quicker than most places in Ireland as one of the biggest sorting offices is in Athlone, probably just as well!

IIRC they mark it as having a value of €20 so chances of customs getting their paws on it are slim.

I got my copy yesterday, they marked the packet with a value of $25 CDN, so it got through fine. Have yet to sit down and play it. It has to have a value of at least €40 and ordered outside the EU before customs can charge anything on it.

Forgot how frustrating some of the GOW moments can be. 1 looks nice, have'nt touched 2 yet but heard it looks way better.

I got to the crate part on the ship at the start and remembered how much I hated it. What's funny is that the cutscenes look worse then the game now
