UC4 seems to be most PS4 owners' most anticipated game of the year and for good reason.

Naturally, I'm keen to pick it up, at or shortly after the launch date.

I'm quite price sensitive, so I found a couple of the best deals going around for the game.

NZ Gameshop - $89.99 NZD. Use code "VIDEO" for 10% off (valid for this week only). Possibly even cheaper if you've purchased from them before and you have reward points accumulated. Not sure about shipping cost. Expect to receive the game about 5 working days after release.

The Warehouse - $89 NZD. Use code "RE2544MAY1" at checkout for free shipping. Haven't purchased from the Warehouse online recently, but believe delivery would be on release day or a day after.

Any others?

nzgameshop shipping

Standard postage is free on orders over $60 and is $1.99 for orders under.

personally, I'd just buy it digitally.

Would do, but the multiplayer seems fun.

I wouldn't usually pre-order or pay the extra for special editions but had $140 of EB Games gift cards (spread over 3 cards) so pre-ordered the steelbox version. My partner should be picking it up about now so it will be waiting for me after work.

Kinda agree. I used to do these "protips/hacks" when I was a kid and had no money. But now that I work and earn my own keep, I'd like to pay for the stuff that I enjoy to promote/support it.

Sure it's "legal", but essentially it's the same as pirating (paying nothing, and playing for free).

Would do if it was legit trying a game before buying it.. Uncharted is awesome, would rather pay money and keep the game. its the final chapter of an awesome adventure.
