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.

Borderlands 3 Reveal Teased for PAX East

by Sam Aberdeen on 01 March, 2019

Borderlands 3 remains one of gaming's greatest mysteries. The beloved looter-shooter series has gained a massive cult following since the release of the first game, and its sequel, which solidified its place in the hall of gaming greats. Developer Gearbox has now possibly teased a reveal for Borderlands 3, and it might happen sooner than we think.

Gearbox will be attending PAX East this year, which kicks off on March 28th. The studio will be having their own Gearbox Panel, but has teased something more than just mandatory updates and news. The official description for the Gearbox Panel is as follows:

"This is your opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at Gearbox Software and Gearbox Publishing, along with the latest news and updates from the makers of Borderlands, Battleborn, Brothers in Arms, and more! We will have never-before-seen reveals, exclusives, and surprises, so don't miss out!"

The internet ignited with excitement at the mention of "never-before-seen" reveals, which could indicate that Gearbox plans on revealing the long-awaited Borderlands 3 this year. After all, many websites have already reported on the fact that the game might actually be well in development over at the studio, so it's only a matter of time before we get an official announcement. PAX East seems like the ideal place to finally pull the curtain back on Borderlands 3, though we recommend toning down your expectations as there's a good possibility that they won't be showcasing anything related to the series.

If PAX East doesn't prove fruitful, then it's a safe bet that Borderlands 3 might take the stage at E3 2019. With Sony dropping out of this year's show, Microsoft's stage could play host to the reveal. However, we must stress again that none of this is set in stone, but we're fairly confident that we'll be hearing something from Gearbox at PAX East regarding a new Borderlands game - perhaps even a developer update.

Borderlands 3 is speculated to be in development.

@Lurch As much as I hate looter-shooters in general, the Borderlands games (especially 2) have come the closest to being competent. Plus they're just really fun.

Lurch

Here's hoping Gearbox - especially after the underwhelming response Battleborn got - can still demonstrate to other devs how to make a looter-shooter that isn't an insufferable grind, devoid of personality and novelty..
