Add it to your wishlist on Amazon + turn on notify when in stock and keep an eye on this thread. The SX stays around for a while (couple of hours) when it's in stock so you should be able to grab it if you spot it.

 

Only thing is that the restock is not planned and not as many as the PS5 so you can't plan ahead.

Have it in wishlist have notifications on from twitter nd discord bots but when only 1-2 pcs drop it wipes in a second and cant get it then, for big restocks i havent seen any yet in this month and dont know if any will come anytime soon... already decided to buy xsx and purhcased 3years gamepass today for 8500... so was thinking to order from ppgc

Prepaidgamercard is also taking orders for delivery in mid april, is the site reliable? should i order from them?

 

You should get it before April from other sources I think.

Dont get it from PPGC. The owner abuses you if you follow up too much. Also from what I've read he charges 10% cancellation fee irrespective of whether you or he cancels the order (due to no stock)

Yup they charge a cancellation fee of upto 10% not 10% everytime , from what i have heard they only charge payment gateway fee like if you pay by credit card on razorpay around 2-2.5%.

I have seen cases of them abusing customers but that was 1-1.5 years ago and it seems they are now working towards better service.

After seeing many good reviews of people ordering series x and s from them i have ordered one series x today they delivery date they gave is 19/04/2022 - 25/04/2022 so i will follow up with them if itsnt shipped by then but i hope they will provide good service.

I have ordered mine from them as well. My delivery date is 9-15 April. I've heard mixed reviews about their service. Patiently waiting for now, fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.

Ya, but most reviews of them in past year have been positive according to me before that there were many negatives but now i see mosly positive.

I have bought a few games from PPGC. I am based out of Bangalore and so is the owner/store. I text him directly since he is quite active on whatsapp and he delivers the order via Porter in a couple of hours.

 

Personal experience has been good. Got Forbidden West for a decent price on day 1 from him.

Got the XSS with external HDD.   Right on time for GOTG .

 

Currently only on download mode . Yet to start playing.  Need suggestions on Halo and Gears.

 

Can I directly play Halo Infinite Campaign or its better to play original ones? MCC collection etc.?

I remember trying MCC long back but couldn't get into the first one much.  So should we play ALL previous campaigns or some can be skipped completely(4,5 etc)?

 

For Gears,  I played the first one remastered edition and i liked it. But 2 and 3 seems not enhanced.

Can i skip 2,3 and directly play 4 & 5?  or is 2 & 3 worth it.

Great, congrats!!

 

For Halo, story is complicated and goes beyond games. 

 

Play as many as time allows. There are no bad Halo games IMO. If you wanna jump on Infinite that's fine too, just watch story recap on YouTube. Still, playing previous games would offer better experience. 

 

Then jump into multiplayer of Infinite, that's just superb.

 

For Gears, story isn't very complicated. You could jump straight to Gears 5 would also be fine. It has a very cool recap video that covers everything. Gears 5 imo is best one, especially it's online part.
