Hey @Tea, any chance you can organise a copy of Silent Hill Origins for me? Doesn't matter which platform

@IkariX it's a good thing IDGAF about your opinion then, lol
It may surprise you to know that other people have different experiences to your own. But I know that concept may be too far out of reach for you.

As for Nexus, I don't know why you ban people that have legitimate points relating to polls you create. None of what I said was out of line, but clearly you prefer sycophants like IkariX on the forum instead of customers who have legitimate criticism of your logistics (which you make us pay for).

Nexushub has the best customer service no doubt. I have had other retailers that don't care about restocking on sold out titles but yet nexushub helped get me townfall steelbooks and control resonant steelbooks even though they were sold out. No one cares about delivery fees as long as you get the physical game in good condition like I have, especially steelbooks which can be fragile.

@DarkWingDuck

I'm going to call [censored] on your post. I've been buying from Nexus since the AnimeWorx days from about 2008. I have literally never ever had bad customer service from NexusHub. So you are being disingenuous. I don't think you appreciate the great lengths they go to, to get these games for us. But enjoy your other retailers and their[censored] service.

MrOde very good point! I'd pay extra for express overnight shipping.

HaseoVII SAME regarding FF7Rebirth (best believe I preordered Revelation though )

I am such a huge fan of Nexus Hub - no one else in SA imports the niche titles - I used to need to get my stuff from Amazon Japan/US

My backlog is so big I don't care how late I get my orders lol haven't even played FF7 Rebirth or even Stellar Blade yet, but that's just me.

I'd actually go even further and say do standard free shipping for all orders above R1000 but allow an express shipping option/add on for those that want to pay extra. I would gladly pay extra to get whatever I ordered the day after I order it.

Shipping costs on games? What's that?

I'm not looking to start a bad thread about this, I was really just curious because I misclicked the tab on the left and stumbled upon the poll (I'd never clicked it before).

I am fiercely brand loyal to Nexus Hub and I don't care too much about not getting a game day-1. I know other names like BT and Koodoo ship earlier so you get it on release, but I'd never be "that" excited that I must play day-1, life happens
On the other hand, paying an extra R150 every time you order a commercially available title does add up, and I would not blame the average consumer for trying to save some money.

I know I'd feel less off about it if there was a price match, and free delivery at a certain threshold.

I mean if I can save money, why wouldn't I?

Are there circumstances where I would pay that extra without thinking twice about it, yes. In general there's little reason to do so.

That said, touching on Darkwing's point of eBucks, payment options feel like a lot bigger point than the R50 delivery. Lot of places offering rewards, pay later, etc. Those are big pull points for customers.

How much would "free delivery for orders over R 1000" affect your decision to more purchases from Nexus Hub?

How bad is this "#rimlag"? - I bought Skyrim on PS3 simply because I had Oblivion on PS3.

Skyrim PS3 patch helps but doesn't fix lag issue

I was getting lag after about 2 hours of continuous play. It was noticeable once my save file got to about 7mb which was at about 45- 50 hours in. The lag could be “reset” by loading a save file (I would completely exit the game, shut down the system and take a short break from my ps3). The lag wasn’t too bad except in cities.

The patch does fix improve the lag, but it seems that Bethesda have downgraded the PS3 textures in order to achieve this. I haven’t really noticed this except on the load screens where you look at the game model on display. Since the patch I have been experience system freezes which I never did before in Skyrim If I get one more tonight I will delete the patch file – the lag I was getting wasn’t all that bad and could be rest. Hopefully I won’t encounter any other bugs they may have fixed in the patch.

Still really enjoying playing despite of the lag/patch woes!

I think if bethesda doesn't fix the problems as soon as possible that they will be getting a lot of people asking for a refund

I am having no problems in the game... Well, not game breaking ones. Fought a dragon last night and it didn't fly backwards.
Really looks like the consoles are getting the short straw here. Many little mods to fix the problems on PC

mmm ok I think I will delete the patch file on my next play. I had no system freezes last night, but I did a tomb and it was mind numbingly different. At first I thought I had leveled up incorrectly which is something that can happening the Elder scrolls games as the game difficult increases as you level up, but after reading this I am pretty sure that the last dungeon I did pre patch was easier.

I am still really enjoying the game though in-spite of the bugs. Even the super hard tomb was exciting and challenging to get through

Some people are saying you need to delete your save file and start a new game after the patch is loaded - then all is OK. Guess not too many people are going to do that! Lots of issues (but not the lag) on Xbox 360 as well.

It's possible. Some enemies and locations are horribly difficult. Usually when you haven't saved for an hour. I like it, it keeps you on your toes.

Finished the dark brotherhood questline and got The Blaaaade of WoE!
After smithing its 54 damage. So sneak attacks do stupid damage

Think I will pick up a two handed weapon and start swinging, just for a change of pace

Interesting article from Eurogamer, PS3 lag known issue from at least New Vegas?

In our weekend article on the Skyrim PS3 lag issue, we analysed the performance of the game running from a fresh save compared to a crippled 65 hour game, and then put the new patch through its paces - and found it wanting.

Our best theory on why it happened at all came down to the notion of an unbounded game world with thousands upon thousands of objects having to be tracked as they moved from their default positions as the player moved through the game. It's an enormous undertaking to store all of this information, and of the three platforms Skyrim is available for, it's the PlayStation 3 that presents the most challenges from a memory management perspective.
