Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for 2 PSP games:
Juiced 2 and Fifa 09. Looking for these pre x-mas and would even consider them pre-owned. SO if any other boardsie's out there has seen these on your rounds I would really appreciate any assistance.

Cheers,
Freebee23

On the news tonight it said that woolworths are having a big sale with up to 50% off so worth checking it out.

Dont know if its worth the hassle to some people for a game but was up the north in newry and got super mario bros for a friend and cost me £29.99 which converts to about 33-34 euro now with the good exchange rate. i bought the same one in gamestop in newbridge afew weeks ago and cost me 50 euro. But i have to say when i bought that game in newbridge all they had on the shelves was pre owened for 44 euro, so when i went to pay i just asked had they any brand new and they had which only cost 6 euro more. what a ripp off.

Are you refering to New Super Mario Brothers on DS?

If so it's hard to believe a game nearly 3 years old is going for 50 euro still.

Great game though.

Doh!!!

I had a look for it in the HMV in Blanchardstown but they did not have it , ended up paying €49:99 for it in xtravision as I had to pick it up for my nephew.

kaiser soza · 17-12-2008 3:31pm

Im tempted to get that even though its meant to be quite short and easy but a great experience.....plus it looks very shiny

But Tesco Tullamore has to be the best for anti-bargains, they have about 6 sealed Xbox games, including Halo 2 and Oddworld: Strangers Wrath, for €59.99 while most of the new release X360 games are about €50

. Yay.

Clover it is just not going your way:( Was tempted also to get the steel cover one in xtravision at e40,but what is the difference? Is that a special edititon with extra features or is it literally the case only?Gonna pick it up in argos tomorrow with mum for christmas:)
One other thing,maybe shouldnt be posting it here,but did anybody see the article in News Of The World a few weeks back about the difference in price between Argos in the north and here? for example,Prince Of Persia is 19.99 sterling and 29.99 here.At current trading(just looked this one up) the price here should be e21.52. I think over 7 euro when just talking about 29.99 is far too steep. Fed up of being ripped off,shows its not just irish retailers doing it,as this english giant is showing.

All the UK stores operating in Ireland have been making out like bandits on the exchange rate for months. The last few times I've been in Marks & Spencer's I've noticed that they have started ripping the UK prices off the dual-price tags on everything.

CCCP^ · 21-12-2008 10:51pm

Prince of Persia for 32.99 euro in HMV Grafton Street. Not 100% if this is a good deal, don't play the 360 and not sure how new the game is, but suited me.

Also Bomberman 2 and Elite Beat Agents were 20 and 25 euro respectively (used) still a hell of alot cheaper than Gamestop.
