    Don't know if anyone saw the Indy Car crash from last night. Horrific scenes :(

    Stayed up refreshing my Twitter for further info. Only watched Senna earlier on in the day too.. Wasn't in a good mind set for it.

    Thoughts go out to his wife, 2 children, family and friends.

    Indeed. Saw the family statement and my heart went out to them.

    It's a minor miracle in some way that only one person died tbh from looking at the footage though.

    It was a crazy crash.. but with that sort of sport (indy/nascar) all it needs is one car to make a mistake and the consequences for the rest of the field can be catastrophic.. or lethal in this case!

    I feel for every1 involved.. friends, family and the indy community!

    Its a dangerous sport but the fact there are so little deaths is a testament to how far safety in motor racing has come! But there is no way you can protect someone from a scenario such as last night!!

    something I was wanting to ask a while back..

    I'm not a mega gamer like some of ye lads but which is better..

    GAME or Gamestop??

    I've always used GAME purely coz its in Dundrum and that's where I used to work and where the still works so I'd be out there often..

    Is there any huge difference with them (selling/buying games, reward points etc)

    depends really, wouldnt really have any loyalty towards them, never buy preowned games and rarely trade stuff in so whatevers on sale or whoever has good preorder stuff I go with, generally HMV have the best new game prices, they're usually less than 45 quid when game or gamestop are 50

    Like krudler I think hmv are the best when it comes to buying new games usually a fiver cheaper.
    I don't like gamestop too much,they usually offer the worst trade in value(although I think I've only ever traded in 3 games) and have the worst prices.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭hypermuse


    So ye aint loyal to one??

    I just figured it might work out cheaper in the long run if you stuck with one retailer, you know, loyalty points which get you discounts etc etc..

    Best advice is not bother sticking with one place and just shop around?
    I usually have been shopping around but when I traded in few games to GAME I also pre-ordered 3 games.. then started thinking bout the whole is better to stick with one or just go for cheapest where you can find it..


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Always shop around.

    HMV are usually as the best for new releases as Perrin pointed out.
