Long time lurker,first time poster.....My daughter is an avid Japanese/RPG/Anime gamer,so thought this might be a worthy addition to her collection and at a reasonable pre-order price imo.
Next best offer is around the £34 mark,unless I've missed one

Heat! Great price :sunglasses:
Wouldn't be surprised if this went up to £34.99 soon

Amazon had it for £33.99 so this is the cheapest so far!

This will be one of those prices that, closer to release, people will quote when deals are listed for this game, then replied to with 'can I borrow your time machine' etc quips.
As far as I'm aware, this is a full price AAA jrpg, so it is a very good price. Wasn't keen on the last star ocean game which I played on 360 but I did like the one on ps2. This looks pretty good.

Fantastic price, was very tempted to order from Amazon for £33.99 - can't resist for this.

Thanks OP was not looking at this on amazon yesterday! Between this persona 5 and Ff 15 it's going to be an amazing year for jrpg

And Ni No Kuni 2
Odin Sphere Leifthrasir
Toukiden 2
Kingdom Hearts 2.8
YS
and many others...all above confirmed 2016 for the West dunno if Gravity Rush 2 counts as jrpg. My fave so far this year has to be Digimon Cyber Sleuth

Very tempting, but too many games to go through..
Anyone know if there is a limited/collectors edition for this game for the UK/EU please?
I heard Japan's version is awesome
Voted hot for the price, although the reviews aren't very good at Amazon Japan.

Just so people know this is made on a budget and is only about 20 hours long but is supposed to still be very good and a lot better than part 4, Heat from me

That's got to be a pricing error shirley? Eh, their mistake is my gain.

didnt enjoy 4, but this looks quite good. 20 hours story isn't too bad if the sidequests etc add extra hours.

13 Apr 16#30
And another Amazon order cancellation to add to the list. Thanks OP

I'm not a tokuden fan sadly.
I'm still in massive backlog atm including Xenoblade and rogue galaxy

Yup lol, it was a tie between her and the cat girl but I think "Kayyyyyyy" annoyed me the most lol. You'd think Till the end of Time was enough to drive u crazy with some of the characters then they top it in the last hope haha. These are probably the only games I forgive it in lol. The games are amazing, but some of the characters...what they were thinking. I have no idea.

Literally just got an email cancelling my pre order....

Same here. Off I go, back to Amazon, with my tail between my legs...
Cherried
15 Apr 16#51
well in kinda glad i kept my amazon order as base have cancelled the preorder "due to pricing error"
nekoangel to Cherried
15 Apr 16#52
Well it's no real loss for anyone as amazon price is the same. They also get pre order bonus stuff I think. Just annoying as ive had so many items cancelled in the last week.

Anndd cancelled. Thought they might have honoured this one, not a HUGE discount vs Amazon's price.

Should have stuck with Amazon :disappointed: lost my £5 discount on this now (used the £10 1 day voucher for spending £50 when I preordered 2 x £33.99 games) but because I cancelled my preorder I now need to pay £33.99 as the voucher's expired.

15 Apr 16#57
Should have done what I did keep the Amazon one still preordered with this and see what happens just before release and decide to cancel
Maybe contact amazon support if you can get it back
