This is the best price that I've yet seen for The Witcher III - which is easily one of the best games this year!
Blurb from the listing:
---------
Dedicated to gamers who want more from physical box editions of games than just the disc and manual, containing premium items prepared by the developers, this edition of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the definitive answer for those gamers who want to enter the Witcher universe with style.
The Game.
An exclusive CD with the official soundtrack.
The official, developer-created "Witcher Universe - The Compendium".
A beautiful, detailed map of the in-game world.
A set of unique The Witcher 3 stickers.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a story-driven, next-generation open world role-playing game, set in a graphically stunning fantasy universe, full of meaningful choices and impactful consequences. In The Witcher, you play as Geralt of Rivia, one of a dying caste of monster hunters, and embark on an epic journey in a war-ravaged world that will inevitably lead you to confront a foe darker than anything humanity has faced so far—the Wild Hunt.
The world burns as the Empire of Nilfgaard pierces through the heart of the kingdoms in the north. Geralt of Rivia is pursued by an enemy devoid of mercy—the Wild Hunt, a mythical cavalcade of ghastly riders, harbingers of doom and destruction, capable of destroying entire settlements overnight. Driven by a deeply personal agenda, Geralt must navigate a maze of hostile forces to find and protect the one described in an ancient prophecy. Gritty and merciless, the world the adventure plays out in sets new standards in terms of size, ecosystem complexity and meaningful non-linearity. Experience realistic day and night cycles, observe weather changes that influence gameplay, and conquer the lush environment using arcane witcher lore.
Evolve unique witcher skills to tailor gameplay to your liking; hunt bloodthirsty monsters and develop your signature fighting strategies; use potent battle magic, and slay your way to victory in a truly limitless open world. Stroll, swim, ride and sail; embark on legendary quests and collect epic bounties. Take control: go anywhere, do anything!

I've just bought this for myself for christmas. My back log is disgustingly huge, I've got W1 and W2 on Steam and haven't even started them. I haven't finished GTA 5 or Arkham Knight. I haven't started the Uncharted collection or MGSV. Even Wolfenstien is still sealed. I get home from work and sit looking at the TV, the web or mindlessly play F1 2015 or Fifa. What the hell is going on. Am I the only one..?

This, by a *very* long way. It's a better game and, as a bonus, is about half the price.
After buying this, the Hearts of Stone expansion (or the Expansion Pass) should be your very next purchase. Once you're done with these, then would be the time to start thinking about Fallout 4.

I understand what you're saying but they're just so easy to just boot up and mindlessly play. I can't be bothered to have to keep up with plots and storylines.. Which is incredibly lazy I know.. I do WANT to get into these games, They're obviously superb, I just have no motivation, lol

The promotional code "WELCOME" may work for a further 10% discount for new accounts, though I've not tested this. "ZVC5" does not appear to work here.

This. I've been gaming for years now and this is easily one of the best games I've ever played. I'm about 60 hours in and can;t get enough of Gwent

You're certainly not the only one with a backlog. :stuck_out_tongue:
You're not helping yourself with F1 or FIFA, though - and there are *much* better experiences out there if you put those down and explore a bit more widely

How about not wasting money and wait until games are cheap?

I feel much better for reading your post... I thought I was the only person - I still have my PS3 with GTA untouched... Batman on my PS4 is like about 10% completed... and I just bought Metal Gear Solid... on the flip side I did just complete the game 'The Last of Us'... but me completing a game nowadays is a rarity.... like yourself FIFA gets a lot of play!

No, you're not. Same here. My backlog goes back even further to be honest. Bought Arkham Knight 2 weeks ago and played 10 minutes. Love games but it's getting the time and inclination.

Hmmm... how about putting the FIFA and F1 discs somewhere to the other side of your house/flat from your console? Or even giving them to a trusted friend/family member for a while? Make it harder for yourself to play them at a moment's notice, so that temptation is avoided!
