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 PAX East Reveal: Where and When to Watch

by Sam Aberdeen on 28 March, 2019

Many speculate that a Borderlands 3 announcement might be imminent, and will possibly happen tonight. This started with Gearbox Software posting an image on their social media teasing the announcement of a new Borderlands game (or what many hope it will be). Yesterday, Gearbox also dropped a cryptic teaser that is unmistakably Borderlands - but what is it?

Tonight, we will find out. Gearbox's PAX East panel will begin at 11 AM PT, or 8 PM CAT for us South Africans. The stream will most likely be available via Gearbox's YouTube channel, though we will keep you updated if anything changes.

Borderlands 3 has been a long time coming. In the past, Gearbox Software showcased an " class="general_link" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" >Unreal Engine 4 tech demo at GDC 2017, running what appeared to be blueprints for a new potential Borderlands game, which many assumed would lay the foundations for the third game in the series.

While it was only revealed to be a showcase for the Unreal Engine, it was never an indication that Gearbox were working on a new Borderlands game. Thanks to the cryptic teaser yesterday, we do know that Borderlands will be returning, but in what capacity? Some speculate that due to the amount of characters we see in the trailer, it might be a Battle Royale game. I personally believe it alludes to the ending of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, which indicated that an army of many Vault Hunters would form.

Whatever it is, we will find out soon enough. Stay tuned to Nexus for all the coverage, and make sure you check out our extensive catalogue of everything Borderlands 3 related.
