Amazon UK is now only selling certain games to Prime members (non Prime members can still purchase via third party sellers though), lets hope this wont spread to Amazon US.

Noticed this about a month ago they had Borderlands Handsome collection on PS4 for £16.99 for a couple of weeks for Prime only(£23.99 non Prime I think it was) . imo its a sure way to piss off your customers since I've always bought plenty from from Amazon and I was a prime member when it was £37 for free one day delivery but now its £79 for one day delivery +  Amazon Prime video I have no interest in been a prime member as I'd never use the video platform. I hope plenty of people have contacted Amazon and voiced their negative opinions on this and they stop doing it.

Shipping costs have increased, which is the real reason Prime subs cost more.

I Don't knew that i would live to see this day, but why the Vita's Standart, in the hourly ranks is ahead of Quantum Break's Bundle ?, is a Brand new game for 300US$ a exclusive that launched less than 2 Weeks ago.

NMS rising again, dammit, that's gonna be a huge success.

It cant be coincidence that everytime that a new gameplay comes to light, the sales go up.

The last one was the Anthony Carboni preview, which explained further the mechanics of the game.

Tons of people are waiting for the developers to explain what da hell the game is about

Well, the drop by drop release of information have worked after all for the sales.

Im glad the game is doing great

NMS is on "IGN First" this month again. Plenty of new stuff showing.



Amazon selling R&C at a slight discount now. Hopefully that'll help keep it in the top 10 for a while.



Aaaand Amazon US has started locking some games behind Amazon Prime. GTA5 PS4 can now only be bought directly from Amazon themselves if you have Prime.

Damn that's shitty. Really can't imagine people are going to be tempted to get Prime because of this, more likely to go elsewhere.
