  1. 1 drawback, I don’t think we will get the spider-bot keychain and DLC. Not 100% sure..
  2. Spider-Man 2 PS5 @ ₹3,800 Flipkart Ultimate Gaming Pass @ ₹1 = 10% off ₹500 Instant Discount via CC / DC ₹200 Flipkart Axis Bank extra 5% off ₹3,800 - ₹4,000 Final Amount https://dl.flipkart.com/s/_LMP5MNNNN
  3. Received my order for the Thrustmaster T300 Ferrari GTE set yesterday via seller RetailNet, the official in-house dealer / seller of Flipkart. It was an Open Box Delivery, thankfully I recorded the whole unboxing ordeal with my phone. The product box arrived in a 0/10 condition, full of resealed tape, probably was torn to bits by a previous buyer, then returned and put back for resale, the wheel had dust and dirt on it, the power steering motor itself looked old, the power wires had dust on it but was wrapped neatly. The pedals however looked clean and shiny, maybe new. There was a broken red blade inside the box from the previous buyer I guess. The Flipkart agent did the unboxing, he was telling me to accept it and then ask for replacement, I immediately called Flipkart CS to ask for replacement, Flipkart said not to share OTP number and place a fresh order. I asked the agent how to place a fresh order as this is the last piece available, she said click ‘Notify’. By doing this I’ll probably receive the same rubbish the next time. Anyway, I rejected it, told him to take it back and go. I’d suggest future buyers to avoid purchasing this particular model “Thrustmaster T300 Ferrari GTE”, unless you want to deal with Flipkart CS and the headaches! Note: The Flipkart Open Box Delivery service is kind-of a relief, personally it gained some trust back for me, I recently bought 2 other expensive items from them, it was hassle-free (their deals have been quite tempting lately. Actually much better deals than Amazon. I guess they’re trying to pull customers back into their portal). IMO it saves time and lesser headaches arguing back and forth with Flipkart CS to take it back. PSA: Unboxing video is a 100% must for Flipkart / Amazon or any other high value online order. It should be a mandatory habit by now for everyone. — Ordered a different model today for an additional 6k, price was ok, good, still better than the Logitech variants, which is still more expensive. It last said 5 available in-stock unlike the previous buy which said last piece in-stock. And this time through another in-house Flipkart seller “MPDSLERetail”. I had a word with some buyers who also bought other Thrustmaster products during the deal time, they seemed to have got legit sealed new pieces. I guess it was my bad luck. Hopefully this time around it’s on the positive side. TL;DR - Flipkart is still sh*t! If anyone wants to risk it and has time for some headaches, heres the link to the model (price is ok, good, still better than the Logitech variants, which is more expensive too) - https://www.flipkart.com/thrustmast...CCFYRGD5PC5YJYV&lid=LSTACCFYRGD5PC5YJYVOGYDGI Unboxing Video -
  4. https://www.flipkart.com/thrustmaster-t300-rs-pc-ps4-ps3-motion-controller/p/itmaf17ff37df86c https://www.flipkart.com/thrustmaster-t248-x-motion-controller/p/itm31924920f7f5d https://www.flipkart.com/thrustmaster-t-248-motion-controller/p/itm6dc09cc8aad3a Thrustmaster deals on Flipkart. Sadly no one mentioned this here. With some luck I snagged a decent deal for this - https://www.flipkart.com/thrustmaster-t300-ferrari-gte-wheel-pc-ps4-ps3-motion-controller/p/itm6d808ed745e54 Got it for ₹19,500. According to reviews this seems worth it and better than Logitech. I missed out the slightly better version “Ferrari Integral” for barely 1k more. Note - Some prices were lower before (yesterday), check and see if it’s worth it. IMO some prices still worth it. Luckily I snagged mine at the lowest price still.
  5. Wait for Gen 3 coming this year end. USB-C + minor upgrades and possible thermometer inbuilt into it.
  6. Which Discord group? Could you link it here or PM me an invite please, thanks!
  7. If you want quick BT connection then Apple AirPods is the way to go. The connection is seamless when you’re on the same eco-system. Example, I’m using my iPad with AirPods Pro 2, I move my head towards the iPhone it instantly connects to that for sound. You just need to pair it once by keeping both devices close and you’re done. Sound quality of the AirPods Pro 2 is amazing, so far the best I’ve used! A new adaptive audio feature is coming in a future update. If you want USB C, wait a few months for the updated version. As for 3rd party connection with an iPhone - I tried it with my Corsair Virtuoso XT gaming headphones, I have to choose the device in BT menu each time I want to use it, not so seamless. Could be same connection hassle with other brands like Samsung. Conclusion - If you own iPad, iPhone - AirPods is the way to go.
  8. The gaming pass coupon is just 1₹. Overall best deal when combined and lowest price for the controller so far..
  9. PSA: Before buying SSD’s etc from Prime Day, check with local dealers. Found local dealer offers cheaper, these prime day offers aren’t always good.
  10. Deal - DualSense Edge at 13,499 (Maybe even cheaper with Flipkart Axis Bank Card. Step 1 - Buy Multi Brand Ultimate Gaming Pass at 1₹ https://www.flipkart.com/multi-brand-ultimate-gaming-pass/p/itme85a1ac64c14d Step 2 - Apply to cart with eligible credit card and choose full payment or emi for additional 1k off Step 3 - Ultimate Gaming Pass auto applied and gives you 1500₹ off. Final Price - 13,500₹ https://www.flipkart.com/sony-dualsense-edge-wireless-controller-gamepad/p/itme08834b6d1a5a
  11. I don’t usually pay full price for console games. The only console game I’ve ever paid full price is for the pre-order of Spider-man 2, because part 1 and Miles Morales was super fun for me, thoroughly enjoyed it! Totally worth it according to me, will obviously sell it as soon as I’m done and re-buy it much later on when DLC is out. GT7 - Not into Sim racing games like this and F1. More of a casual gamer when it comes to racing games. Prefer Forza / NFS, however the latest NFS Unbound (PC) is just trash! FF16 - I don’t play FF games. Never have and it’s never gotten my attention. Hogwarts - Got for PC. GOW - Completed on PC. Ragnarok will pay 1-1.2k max on PS5, waiting for better price drop. Horizon Forbidden West - Actually in between this, yet to complete. The Last of Us 1 + 2 - Want to replay these at better graphics. Waiting for price drop, no hurry. Ghosts of Tsushima - Have on PS5, completed 40% and lost interest, was supposed to get back to it but got sidetracked. Uncharted Collection - Completed ages ago. Already have a huge back log of other mainstream games on PC, I keep myself busy on that platform, I prefer to game with higher FPS, better graphics with RTX etc. Console games with 30 fps gives me headaches sometimes. Just got Jedi Survivor for PC, yet to start it. Was addicted to CodMW 1 and 2 on PC. The hackers and SBMM frustration caught up with me and I finally broke that cycle. Not gonna buy CoDMW3 on PC again, maybe PS5 for story mode and sell it later. CoD is like a honeytrap with a good single player story and very addictive MP loaded with frustration and a money making scheme that can bleed you dry. Been playing a few other PS+ games like HW Unleashed for casual fun.
  12. My PS5 is getting dusty 😂. Most of the games I want to play are releasing on PC or already available with better graphics. Sony has dug their own grave I feel, even more after losing the activision deal. But still need some aunty / uncle / cousin to get it down. Not many of us have people there abroad, unless someone offers.
  13. 8.2k US if you can get it down without customs etc. 15k best price in India. For 2TB, it’s a great deal!
  14. There is still some form of legitimacy in this. Certain keys are given to company’s like Asus to Bundle in offers or pre-built systems. The excess lot are sold elsewhere. I know, one can never verify or know for sure from where it came from. But I’d rather have this than pirate. Even games, we all use to do this ages ago, due to expenses, currency differences and unavailability of games, now that we are earning we can choose to support the devs.
  15. There was one guy on Tech Enclave selling all kinds of MS keys, bought 2-3 retail keys (the ones which are bound to account and not motherboard), these are the best kind. You want his contact?
  16. What’s this Gamerbiscuit? Cannot find on Google, send me link too please! lol
  17. Amazon gave me a coupon for ₹250 off few days ago. Just renewed. Also PayTM has occasionally.
  18. Side Note - Amazon / Flipkart have a delivery service too, never use them! My brother had ordered some HotWheels cars from a reasonably reputed dealer via a Facebook group, he received stones in the box. He didn’t record unboxing, I’ve told him make sure to record every important delivery.
  19. DTDC is not cheap anymore. I’ve used them frequently in the past, eventually their price went up and it’s now more expensive than Delhivery Direct. Been using Delhivery past year or so, was cheapest with the 10% off discount coupon code, now it’s exhausted but still cheaper than alternatives for me. People say shiprocket is the cheapest but I don’t find any option for shipping via personal account (not business). Never had any major issue shipping from my side from either company, but getting stuff delivered to me, yes! Delhivery can be quite rough and bad occasionally.
  20. UPDATE - THEY HAVE REFUNDED ME!! I emailed them this yesterday - 1. If the pack mentions it was for free, how come I was charged for it? I have PlayStation Plus activated for years. 2. What do you’ll mean “it is applied to my account?” Give an elaborate explanation regarding this. 3. The red box marked in the screenshot is your legal info. These words clearly mention it is claimed once I start the game and go to a specific “section within the game” itself, then only it is applied! 4. I have never downloaded or played this game, so how can you’ll say “it is applied?” You’ll are not following your own terms and conditions. You’ll are contradicting your own rules. Just because this is India, this is how PlayStation runs things? Overstepping on customers, not following your own terms and conditions? For a simple refund you’ll are making this into a big issue!! — This is their reply via email - This is in reference to your e-mail dated 15/05/2023. In accordance with your email, we would like to inform you that you does have the game Neverwinter on this account. However, in this instance, we have now refunded the add-on as a good will gesture. We would like to inform you that Rs 80,00 have been returned to your card. The funds may take up to 5 working days to appear on your credit/debit card statement. This delay is entirely dependent on how quickly your bank processes the refund. Rs 502 have been returned to the account wallet instead, as you used funds from a voucher top up to pay for part of this purchase. — The amount may have been small, but that doesn’t mean a corporation can go back on their own terms and conditions, overstep on customers and take them for a ride. I wouldn’t have bothered so much If it was for a game I’d actually play, they triggered me with the way they replied and handled it. Hopefully this sets an example that it can be done, if you have all valid proof etc presented. I believe making enough noise on social media is the only solution currently. Really hope they improve for their own sake.
  21. Too much to write here, I’ve linked below my latest tweets regarding this. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1658125320912863237
