The cheapest I've seen this one too. Just cause and Black ops for £50 is a steal!

Not really, a little bit of jiggery pokery and you can get games for much cheaper than the uk prices...

I can't believe people are slagging this off I for one am glad they are being posted so sick of rip off Britain and game prices double what they are in other country's not everyone has a pot of money to pay full price for things if you don't like it don't read the post and if anyone wants to game share let me know never done it before but it sounds interesting.

Agreed i think we all know we can get games cheaper if we buy from another region, however this does save us time in checking each region and exchange rates for the cheapest, I have added heat ti this deal but will be another post tomorrow on another region where is £1 cheaper than this

yes of course you can, i made a thread with all the xbox discounts on with uk prices, but its like saying you can get all of them cheaper on a different market place. which you can and has been known since the xbox one came out. Making a thread for every game with a different marketplace isnt really a great deal, or is it ?

I do like these sort of deals, i didn't realise how easy it was to get games from different regions as i only got my PS4 a couple of weeks ago but have saved loads since i saw the posts here - £18.99 for Star Wars Battlefront! Particularly with people getting consoles for Christmas i don't think there is any harm in posting them for a few games as it will help new owners and as someone has already said it saves you checking all the different stores yourself.

Why would people get fed up if you don't like it dont click into the deal these deals have saved me an absolute fortune got rise of the tomb raider and blacks ops 3 for £25 for both because I also game share with a friend they would cost 4 times that if I bought from the UK retailers keep them coming

Dunno how change region etx and do these tie to your account like uk games?
You can get a free trial of VPN unlimited and use their Panama server to buy the games online.
And yes, they link to your account in the same way they would if you bought it from the uk store :smiley:

That's a fair point, I suppose it could get really silly if people start sharing every game from every region separately!

anyone recommend a free vpn to use on a chromebook?

No need for a vpn just go to the xbox store scroll to the bottom and change the region I do that all the time using a chromebook

These deals are always great. But you'll usually find just the one post that then contains the prices from other regions.
Nothing wrong with it in my opinion. I think most will unite on the foreign savings that can be had and the party of people doing it is growing, especially when some savings are more than 50% of the UK price.
Others that want to buy UK, nothing wrong with that, the deals posted are still relevant.
However the loophole when buying from foreign stores can save gamers so much money and as thats what this site is all about, its not gonna disappear anytime soon

I use chrome (browser) on my desktop - needs VPN when purchasing from Xbox Columbia (I use Panama on free version VyprVPN)

If you are going to break the rules to buy stuff cheap you may as well just steal it and get it free

I'd like to give this a go, read guide, and can see how to change region at Xbox.com to buy game etc. But not sure how to use the VPN, and how use it only at the payment stage.

I have to agree with other comments, fed up with these posts from other regions.

So, stop reading them!? Surely as soon as you see (Colombia store, or Canadian store) you can just navigate your mouse elsewhere.

but stealing it would be a lot more difficult, I would rather pay the small amount to save myself the hassle :wink:
Besides, this way the developers of the games will still be paid and I am happy in the knowledge I'm not a dirty pirate! :P
That being said, I have downloaded games for PC in the past (and would still consider it now depending on the title) but tend to use that to
A: see if the game will even run on my PC and
B: test out the game in case it is utter crap.
In most cases I put in an hour or so and then actually end up buying whatever I downloaded anyway.

If only Paypal could be used, I'd consider it.......but not signing up for foreign payments etc.

Yeah well it's closer to fraud than a deal and the fact it's encouraged by HUKD is a **** disgrace.

So we could put up a post to say that Petrol is cheaper in France???
No this is the Gaming section, it would be voted cold for being in the wrong section.

I have Uk Xbox currency on my account. Can I buy with that or do I have to pay directly through my card
reddeviluk to bullet9t9
23 Dec 15#31
Nope, UK credit is for UK marketplace only. You need to commit fraud first by giving false details.

Download the revolut app and register is easiest and cheapest assuming you own a smart phone

Can someone post an address in Colombia that they are using as I am struggling to use one that works at the moment? Cheers.
When I go to confirm payment it comes up with this error message 'Usa una forma de pago distinta
Tu compra no puede ser completada con esta forma de pago. Intenta con una forma de pago nueva o distinta.' which translates as "Use a different form of payment
Your purchase can not be completed with this form of payment. Try a new or different form of payment."

Ain't this breaking the Xbox terms and conditions for the market place I used to do this kind of VPN thing for Netflix to get the American site but they started to ban people for doing it not sure I want to risk getting banned from Xbox live a few months down the line.

What a pathetic thing to say. "Breaking the rules" is now comparable to stealing? Wow. Just wow.
P.S There are no rules

Just a heads up on anyone afraid of facing a ban, the ban wave was only issued to people back when they were changing regions to claim games for free without paying

Is it me or has the price gone up? I've just tried to purchase the game and they want 143910 pesos £30.... And that was after signing into Xbox live

How is it illegal when the xbox one is region free. MS also at one point encouraged customers to buy cross region.

So why do you need to give false details?......of course it's fraud.
