@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.

For niche titles it's okay. Problem is I play mainly bigger titles. Games are expensive enough as is. If I can save 50 bucks, use my ebucks (which some retailers allow) then I'm definitely going with another retailer.

Basically if I have to choose between paying delivery or not I'm going to go for not paying for delivery. On top of that, I find my Nexus orders are usually delayed. I don't think I've ever received a game on release day which is annoying when you're paying extra for delivery especially. And often you have to ask where it is which I don't think the customer should have to do, that's part of customer service.

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

thought as much ...

Ghosts is mired in a distinct lack of ambition. Outside of the stellar Extinction mode, Ghosts follows more often than it leads, bringing with it familiar missions, modes and experiences. Ghosts feels like an accountant's sequel, with just enough content to justify a new installment.

Well looks better then BF4!
For single player, definitely COD Ghosts!! They say the campaign is longer as well & theres that Extinction mode!!
As for next & current gen, next gen does look a little better! But current gen still looks great!!
I dont like BF, COD has always been the best for me! So will get this at a later stage

Oy, I'm an accountant and we like innovation, just look at all the IFRS changes!

P.S. Sorry for the lame accounting joke, but still I resemble that remark

Game is not bad so far. Not as mind bogglingly beautiful as I thought it would be, but pretty...
Very intense though.

LOL, loved that joke. IFRS makes me go *sigh* !zzz
But yeah accounting does make me go.. these days as the people who think they are accountants but cannot do basic VAT, PAYE calcs, argghh. *Hulk smash*

Anyhow to game on hand. It really worth it?
Asking as I'm generally not a COD player, played Modern Warefare 1&2 which was alright, Black Ops 1 was rubbish so did not bother with 2.
Modern Warfare 3 was meh compared to Battlefield 3.
Just asking single player mode. I do not play online and never will.

Probably not worth buying new for you then. Wait for a price drop, play single player, trade back.
It's decent but hella chaotic and stuff.

That's not the ending... that's the START of Ghosts, so it could be intentional?

Call of Duty: Ghosts launch-day shipments were down on last year's game, Black Ops 2, and the console transition is to blame, Activision has said.


http://www.computerandvideogames.com/437077/cod-ghosts-retail-spend-down-on-black-ops-2-due-to-console-transition/

Yeah right - it's nothing to do with the endless recycling and general modern shooter fatigue. You had good innings, time to move on.

Time for COD: World War I or COD: Civil War or COD: Napoleonic Wars - how awesome would these be?

I think GTA 5 may have contributed to lower sales as well as well
