Pre-ordered my copy of Diablo III: Collector’s Edition from Amazon on the 14th March 2012, it was shipped on the 17th May 2012 (1 day after the official release) and I got it on the 20th May 2012 (didn’t know DHL delivers on Sunday as well).

The game itself cost US$99.90 (S$126.60) and shipping (normal) cost US$19.98 (S$25.30). Paid a total of US$119.97 (S$152) for it.

Interesting! SingTel is bringing in the 3G/WiFi PlayStation Vita to Singapore! It will be on sale from 14th April 2012. The RRP of it is S$469 and of course if you get it from SingTel, it will be subsidized (price plans located at the bottom of this post)

You can pre-order the PS Vita online at singtel.com/PSVita from today (28th March 2012). Pre-order customers will receive S$20 worth of Sony PlayStation Network credits to purchase games.

Diablo III is coming on 15th May 2012. You can pre-purchase the digital version via Battle.net for S$90. The retail box pricing in Singapore and Malaysia is S$89 and RM$218 respectively.

If you are like me and prefer to own the collector edition’s (CE) physical box, you can get it from Amazon (Diablo III: Collector’s Edition) for about US$100 (S$126) and they do ship directly to Singapore for US$20 (S$25), so total cost including shipping would be US$120 (S$151).

PopCap Games hits the jackpot after producing hit games like Bejeweled and Plants vs Zombies among many others.

Copied + Pasted from Techcrunch or you can check out the Press Release from EA:

Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY will be available in Singapore exclusively to SingTel customers from 22nd April 2011.

Press Release

Press Release:

Singapore – December 3rd, 2010 – Hoist the sails and set your compasses for North: Uncharted Waters Online, the historical massively multi-player online role-playing game (MMORPG), officially launched today.

Ordered my StarCraft 2 – Wings Of Liberty – Collector’s Edition from Amazon.com on the 17th July 2010 and it arrived at my door step on 29th July 2010, only 1 day after the official launch.

When I first heard that StarCraft 2 is going to retail for S$109 and from IAH Games, I immediately cancel my pre-order from The Software Boutique because paying S$109 for a normal edition is not really worth it. So I went to check Amazon for the Collector’s Edition, but unfortunately it was sold out. I placed the item on my Amazon alert list so that once the item is available again, Amazon will email me. I received that email on the 17th July 2010 and immediately ordered it alongside with a few of Li Xiang’s book on my wish list.
