    On the Zavvi note. Has anyone seen the prices of games there recently? Lets play the compare game!! Only with ame, cos I cant be bothered shopping anywhere else!


    Fallout 3

    Zavvi: 59.99
    Game: 25.95

    Gears Of War 2


    Zavvi: 55.99 (They actually had gears 1 in the poster for it, FOOLS!)
    Game: 30.95



    Lets end before it gets embarassing. No wonder they're going DOWN! These were based on my most recent Dundrum visit last week. It was cold....

    I used to be like that. Then I bought a game card. 65e sitting on it, and counting.... I spend waaaay too much in there.

    Awwwwww! :( worlds smallest violin man... :p kidding!

    Speaking of Zavvi,I bought a pair of earphones in Zavvi in town (Cork) yesterday. Showed my 'Zavvi student card' to the cashier and he said they don't take them anymore!
    Plus on the receipt it says theyre in liquidation, didn't think twud be so formal tbh :eek:


    I promptly threw the card into the bin outside...kinda symbolic of Zavvi really :rolleyes:

    I actually liked Zavvi for their 10% student discount. Gamestop only gives 5%. I got a bunch of new games in Zavvi on release day for €54 thanks to the discount. Also got the Rock Band instrument pack + game for €166 thanks to that discount, when everywhere else was selling it for €200+.

    I'll miss you Zavvi!
