    Anyone have an idea where's best in Galway to get a PS3?

    I am leaning towards GAME at the minute, but I haven't checked Smyths or any of the toy shops.

    Don't buy one until the end of the month...they are releasing a 120 gig version with 2 games on the 24th Oct I think ..and the best deals seem to be in HMV.

    Had a look in eBay not interested, the talk of a bigger hard drive interests me, though given that the PS3 is only a couple screws away from having its hard drive changed (that's what prompted the PS3 over the XBox) its not that big a consideration.

    I priced HMV against Game on Sunday and there was no difference, other than the guys in Game knew about what they were selling. Unless there was fine print I didn't read?

    Not sure if it's still going but Xtra vision have a deal where you get the 80GB version +one game of any choice for 410 euro. Not sure about the controllers and HDMI cable maybe someone could clarify?

    Except you are stuck with FIFA 09 then :)
    Sounds like a good deal alright.

    Ebay really is the cheapest place to buy it, I got mine plus 5 games and an extra controller for 450 yoyos including shipping.
