    Couldn't get it in HMV Grafton St. at 2pm.

    Didn't bother trying Game on Dawson St cos they usually charge €10 extra than Xtra Vision.

    my ma just got a copy for me.

    she says I can't play it until Christmas though.
    Bet it was PES6! You're gonna have miserable Chistmas so :D:D:D

    right, i've been searching this morning to no avail (a bit like phoole, only more geeky). the following places would not sell it to me:

    gamestop omni
    golden discs omni
    harvey norman airside
    smyths airside
    gamestop swords
    golden discs pavillions
    hmv pavillions
    xtravision malahide
    gamestop clare hall
    xtravision artane

    in fact the only people who would give me anything were the nice people at kfc, should've just stayed in the nest really :(

    can anyone else confirm the smyths mary st. at 6 story?

    i'm not driving into town for nothing, too much disappointment today so far

  • Registered Users Posts: 245 ✭✭Artfu1Dodger


    its late night shopping in town tonight so im sure they will sell after 6 or later.


  • Registered Users Posts: 129 ✭✭murfo


    well just rang golden discs in omni and asked if they would be selling this evening with late opening, saying that i'd heard places in town would be.

    they didn't seem too interested


  • Registered Users Posts: 375 ✭✭Phoole


    We need someone to confirm this 6pm thing. Thing is, once somebody gets their hands on a copy they're gonna be too pre-occupied with their new possession to start posting on here!!

    It's looking that way!!

    I was definately told 6. i saw them behind the counter ready to go and asked if i could buy one, this was at 2pm. he said after 6 they can but not during 9-6 trading times today unless someone else broke the embargo first. seems a bit odd but i'll go down after. their number is 8782878 if you want to confirm it.

    HMV Grafton Street
    GAME Dawson St.
    GameStop Liffey St.

    Not a word on slowdown? huh?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭Cannibal Ox


    Not a word on slowdown? huh?
    Not a peep. This part:
    PES 2008's players - even the less skilful ones such as Dirk Kuyt and Gilberto Silva - can now embark on mazy runs to rival a Greek epic. Players possessing superior footwork such as Ronaldinho and Ronaldo (either of them) have become one-man armies, battering-ram runners with ballerina finesse and magnets on their boots, who can single-handedly win a match by themselves. Controlling these players is a dream for dribbling enthusiasts, though purists amongst you will probably be disgusted at just how easy it is to weave past the opposition.
    isn't exactly filling me with confidence either.

    got the game from a wholesaler just there, who i mentioned in previous posts, no slowdown at all, not so far anyway, havent tried online yet. to be honest lads i think it's shi....te, its pretty much the same as the demo if not worse, pro 6 on the xbox was even better than this one, im sure it will get better but all those little things that never mattered before, licenses commentary will now, cos if you have played fifa 08, i honestly cant see how anyone being objective would say pes is better. hopefully im completely wrong.
    oh and im playingthe 360version.

    Fifa games have always had more licenses, better presentation, etc. and Pro Evo has always been a better game, Im not sure why the licenses will matter more this year than last.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 690 ✭✭✭givyjoe81


    cos all things being equal the greater selection of teams gives fifa the edge, but to be honest, things just aren't equal.. i never ever liked fifa and just refused to even play it, but boredom and impatience for pro evo prompted me to buy it, and in my honest opinion its a better game, better game all over, gameplay included, i want pro evo to be better so badly, but its not.

    Personally I'd rather give away my PS3 for free than play Fifa. I just think it's garbage and has been since Fifa '99.
