    GTA IV - Zavvi €75, Game €60.... Argos, €29.99.

    Fifa '09... Argos €34.99.

    Can't believe I nearly gave Zavvi that much money the other day, no wonder they've gone ti*s up.

    For PS3 games, Argos seems to be worth checking out.

    Correct, Argos is charging €44 bucks for Fifa 09 for Xbox but you can get it from Gameplay for £19.99 Approx €23 delivered.

    It's exactly the same price in Gameplay for the PS3 version.

    Game Stop are getting really bad for prices. Was looking for a LEGO Wii game for my little cousin there for Christmas, priced it at €54.99 in Game Stop, €38.99 in HMV and something like €20 on play.com, before the sale. Pity I left it too near the day to take advantage :(

    I think the op was probably in a shopping centre and wanted the game asap...Good price in Argos for bricks and mortar store.

    Gamestop's pricing has been awful for years now. Avoid like the plague IMO

    What annoys me about this is the difference between Argos.ie and Argos.co.uk :

    Fifa 09 on PS3 - €39.99
    http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/5689938/Trail/searchtext%3EFIFA.htm

    Change the .ie to .co.uk and you get:

    Fifa 09 on PS3 for £24.14.

    Thing about gamestop that really boiled my blood was when I found a price difference for the same game of about 15euro between two gamestop stores that are less than five miles apart. I mean WTF?

    You think thats bad ? Two different Gamestop stores is one thing.

    I found 4 copies of GH:WT for PS3 priced 50,60,70 and 80 Euro all on the one shelf :eek:
