"Amazing reductions", "slashed in price" I read with anticipation, then I checked out the top 5 matches for the 'Cube and

ENTER THE MATRIX
SR 32.99 play.com 29.99

SPLINTER CELL
SR 30.99 play.com 29.99

SUPER MONKEY BALL 2
SR 35.99 play.com 34.99 (SMB1 is only 15.99 by the way)

SUPER MARIO SUNSHINE
SR 24.99 play.com 29.99 (one exception)

HULK
SR 30.99 play.com 29.99

So SR are still more expensive on most titles plus you have to pay extra for delivery. This "promotion" is very half-hearted and does not mention the original SR price so I think they have knocked hardly anything off some games ? (I stand to be corrected obviously)

At the end of the day it's your money and your choice, I would like to order more games from SR but don't when I can get them cheaper elsewhere with free delivery, and in stock games from play always arrive within 2 days.

Rant over, goodbye.

Considering Blockbuster does it for £15, GAME for £20, and even less in second hand sections of certain stores.

It's worth getting though.

That's untrue. Play and other places often have their starting prices cheaper than SR, but then again, I'll still use SR for most stuff (non-import) because they've been kind enough to give me 17 GADs and loads of Reddies (which I've used to get more stuff).

That's not true (for the online retailer, anyway). You'll almost always get a better deal if you walk into a shop and buy a console there and then.
