Prices from retailers ranging from £160 to £230 it seems, Ninty really should've announced a solid price at the presser to avoid this confusion.

Even cheaper now, some have it as low as £195 at the minute

Yeah Sky Sports 3D would be awesome on the 3DS, even if it was just say highlights on the go, I'd say it could well take off!

I played Oblivion in SD on PS3 when I first got it using RGB SCART, never had a problem with reading text or with pieces of the HUD being cut-out of it.

I've also seen it from both sides as I did eventually upgrade that TV to an HD one, and I stand by what I said, on a decent SD set with good inputs (ie component or RGB SCART, heck even S-Video, anything but composite) it's decent, no problem with text being illegible, and for things being cut out, there's an opti...

See that's a problem ingrained in peoples heads now, that resolution is the be-all and end-all for quality. And you'll be hard pushed to find many progressive (at least here in the UK) Standard Def TV's, most if not all were all 576i displays.

And yes you'll miss out on a fraction of the picture due to overscan but not much.

Not quite, if running through composite yes but through a quality connection like component or RGB SCART it looks perfectly well.

Just because HD is cheap doesn't mean you have to go for it.

If it ain't broke why replace it? Many CRT's beat the hell out of bargain-basement HD sets.

I'd stick ME2 above CoD4, MGS4 and GTA IV quite easily, and have it at least as good as UC2, GoW2, in fact, everything else you mentioned in that list.

Totally deserved score, it's without a shadow of a doubt one of my favourite games of all time, once the story pulls you in there is no letting go.

A must for any gamer no matter what platform be it PC, PS3 or on 360.

That's if we're comparing the console versions

As do I. I hope Sony take the smart option and use SD cards.

Cheap, spacious and no moving parts.

Yeah DiRT 2 was fantastic. I got it in the Steam sale back at Halloween, it's a godly racer.

With VAT now at 20% it's pretty much in line with most other EU nations, only Spain, Cyprus and Luxembourg have lower rates.

There are 9 states with VAT higher than ours at 20%, and actually 20% is the average rate of VAT in Europe according to KPMG.

Converts as $465, however everything in Europe is always more expensive so I can't see it ever being that price in the US.

True big difference in prices there between the PS3 in the UK and Europe, so the 3DS could well launch at £230 and cost €349 in the EU.

VAT would be included already in the RRP, no?

I couldn't see Ninty trying to charge £360 for a handheld, it'd tank worse than the PSPGo at that price.

5490d ago 2 agree0 disagreeView comment

Yep! Might be worth importing if you're in the US if MotorStorm offers worldwide servers.

Only downside is then DLC is region locked.

Just a smidgen over £290 which I'd imagine Nintendo would round up to £299.

Sony are moving away from their own memory sticks now and using SD cards more in things like their DSLRs.
