  • Closed Accounts Posts: 30 dudel


    I got the gamestop deal

    2 x wireless controllers
    Gears of War
    Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Vegas
    Project gotham Racing
    Moto GP
    Some Arcade s h i t

    have to way til the 25th... I've started dreaming about it already.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    If you got, say, the gamestop or smyths deal with the 5 games and extra controller, if you traded in 3 or 4 of the games instantly how much would one get back?

    Smyths or gamest0p deal €500
    Keep just gears or rainbow six, trade in 4 games, -200 ? Is this accurate, i have no idea on trade in values for 360 games, especially when there new.

    If anyone could tell me thatwould be great, as may get tesco deal tomorrow and wnat to know options:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 30 dudel


    emmm you can't trade in PGR because it has multipack all over the cover.... probably get about 130 odd quid for them...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 404 ✭✭colmranger


    I traded in two brand new games fgrom a bundle in GAME and even though they were brand new and unopened they could only give me the current trade in 2nd hand value.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 199 ✭✭Jabbathegut


    The Smyths near liffey valley isnt selling the 5 games + xtra controller anymore
    They say they've runout of games :mad:
    They are offering a deal of
    Xbox 360 Premium
    + extra controller
    + Game of Choice
    + Project Gotham
    + Arcade Classics
    For €469
    They wouldnt swap anything so there you have it
    Has anyone picked up the smyths deal at their other stores???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,036 ✭✭✭BArra

    just picked up gears of war bundle in tesco limerick...thanks all for posting about it..at work now but will be hooking it up when i get home


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 144 ✭✭In IRL


    god i want that GoW pack from tescos. does anyone know if they still have it as of Saturday 2pm. im at work so can't ring them...

    dublin city area plz - ie jervis, baggot street


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,262 ✭✭✭Elessar


    Well I bought one from Tescos Clare Hall On Friday, they had 5 GOW bundles and 7 COD3 bundles. Might be sold out now but give them a try.

    In fact, I never even thought about buying an xbox 360 before...but the price of €337 for the premium and GOW was just too good to pass up! Glad I got it now, it is a powerful machine and GOW is one of the best games I've played in ages.

    All I need now is a CHEAP wireless adapter.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,340 ✭✭✭Nephew


    F*ck me, has anyone bought one of the bundles in xtravision? The receipt must be 25 or 30ft long

    Same with me, wasn going to get one meself but was too tempting to walk past the stand in tescos. But now i want an HD tv so I can enjoy GoW Properly:eek:

    Jervis had 1 Gow set, 2 COD3 set left yesterday evening


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    I was going to buy a PS3, but since the 360 is pretty much half the price I bought the Gears of War bundle. Going to open at Christmas.

    Got the last one in Headford, Galway too.

    €410 -360
    €630 -ps3

    not quite "half price" in fairness

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    damn.
    so where is the best deal now considering i've missed this tesco malarky?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    yea as nismo said, 337 with a game.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 106 ✭✭Spuddie


    shortys94 wrote:

    337€ with a game, 307€ with no game. ;) (From Tesco of coarse)

    PS3, 630€ with no game. So Shortys94 was right.

    Better than half price actually. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,454 ✭✭✭mloc123


    Is €630 the offical european rrp from sony?

    tried 3 tesco's pver the weekend and no luck getting one 2 i tried were too small to stock them and the other was out of them. The xtravision and smyths offers still going?

    €337 isn't the RRP on the machine, it's an in-store offer, so not quite a fair comparison in all fairness.

    speaking of, is that deal the premium system? no one i know seems to be aware of it, seems like a total steal...

    it hasn't been made quite "official" yet (some chain stores are moaning, they want to pack a game for about €680 to get higher markup), but that's what sony wants...

    Well got the Xbox360 (Jervis) from tesco for my brother .. made it down to Killarney tonight.. opened box... everything EXCEPT Xbox is inside...

    Screwed...

    I watched as they removed the security tags but obviously the dim witted muppet serving didn't have a clue that they were supposed to get one from the back sor sommat....

    There goes xmas....

    Fecking box was so heavy with other stuff I didn't question that something so basic as the console itself would not be included...

    What the hell can I do now... I'm freaking out that they are just going to think I am a chancer !!! :(

    Did you buy it between 10am and 1pm on Friday? I was back down at 1pm with a lad from work and they said they had sent one of without putting the console in by mistake.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,222 ✭✭✭Scruff


    Paddy@CIRL how much was the gamestop offer?
    Smyths have stopped doing that offer for €500 now.
    Ended up getting Xbox 360 pro + GoW + PGR3 + 2nd wireless controller + Arcade Collection for €470 in smyths.
    No gamestop near me and was too tired to shop anymore. Had gone to 2 smyths, an xtravision, currys and a game shop trying to find the best deal.

    anyone know where has wifi network adatpers left?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,418 ✭✭✭Jip
