Advantages: cheap prices, fast delivery
Disadvantages: none
I started using game.uk.com a few months ago. I had been sent their magazine through the door telling me the most recent games out and prices and stuff. I was looking to buy two computer games Fifa 2001 and Smackdown 2. I looked around Jungle.com and Amazon.co.uk and found that game was actually the cheapest including postage and packaging.
Fifa 2001 was £27.99 and pre-ordering Smackdown 2 cost £28.99, which was an excellent price. I just had to fill in my details and put in my credit card number (yes it is very safe) and I could even use my special game reward card.
On the Game website
----------------
Game sell games for all consoles and its website has different sections for each:
Playstation – Has an archive of all Playstation games, you can find hardware for your Playstation, hints and tips books for the games, offers, charts and more.
Playstation 2 - the same as above except its all for Playstation 2.
Nintendo 64 – the same as above except its all for N64.
PC – the same as above except its all for PC.
Gameboy – the same as above except its all for Gameboy.
Dreamcast - the same as above except its all for Dreamcast.
Others – This is the others section where you can buy DVD’s and videos.
They all have the same categories on the left hand side of the screen but they change for each section. Another good thing is on each section you go on the right hand side it has the top ten charts.
One of the good things about the game site is the cheapness of its P&P for a standard 24 hours on Amazon you would spend about £3.00 but on Game its about a quid cheaper. I have listed the postage prices below.
Postage and Packaging Costs
-----------------------------------
[UK] Standard (Royal mail) = £1.95 ~~~~~> 2 business days
[UK] Express (Lynx Express) = £3.95 ~~~~~> 1 business day
[EU] Lynx Express =
£8.50 ~~~~~~~~~~~~> 2/3 business days
[RW] Lynx Express = £25.00 ~~~~~~~~~~~> 3+ business days
EU = European Union
RW= Rest of the world
The latest thing I have ordered of game was a Playstation controller at £4.99 (not an official Sony one) and it was supposed to take 2 days but it cam the next morning and you are supposed to pay more for that to happen which I thought was excellent service. I now use game for buying online games it really is the best, cheapest, and most reliable place.
My advice is check out all three sites (Jungle, Amazon and this one) before you buy and find the cheapest. Don’t forget to consider the postage costs. I recommend this site to everyone and I really do think it’s the best.
Hope this opinion helps you decide which ones the best as I written on all three of them. :O)
