    Was just in Tesco in Tallaght a moment ago. Nothing has been delivered yet apparently and the one behind the counter had not an inkling on how much it will be.

    Game in the Square Tallaght is open til 9 aswell. There's also Gamestop, HMV and Xtra Game.

    Went in today, none are selling unless another chain breaks the release.

    I was nearly threatening your man in Game over it. :pac:

    Tried everywhere in the square. Nobody is willing to sell unless another chain store breaks the release. Pointless really as none will due to the financial implications of it.

    Got it from HMV in Limerick (crescent) on the Thursday last year so I'll be chancing my arm in there again after work today.

    You don't ask you don't get...

    Yeah me too. Funny thing is I was doing a job in the HMV Cruises Street shop last year on Pre release day and I asked the manager if I could get a copy, she said there was no chance of getting it early, that they'd get into trouble, yada yada. I drove out to the Crescent SC branch around 7pm and they were banging them out. Will be heading there tonight if I can get flight clearance.

    aliroly let us know if you manage to get a copy this evening will ya mate?

    Just tried HMV Grafton St, they said to come back Friday. Gamestation in Stephen's Green shopping centre said the same thing.

    GAME on Dawson Street said they will sell it when someone else breaks the embargo. I said Play and Shopto have but that didn't work.

    Rightly so as I think I'll part with my € at Clarehall Tesco tonight if it's cheaper there.

    I'm thinking of heading into town this evening to visit every shop there to try and get it. What time would be best at to do so, and what is the likeliness of this not being a waste of time?

    I would imagine after 6 or 7 since its last night shopping but unless one of the main shops breaks the release date then there isnt much chance any of the others will. If you knew before you went in that one of them had started selling it early then you would have a better chance.

    Can someone not tell a lie? Get about 7 lads, go in one by one in 5 minute gaps saying Xtravision in Ballamory are selling it, that they broke the chain first.

    That's a very little amount of Americans interested in anything other than high scoring sports, more like it.

    Hey all. Just settling in, will be in this thread for the evening.

    Went into Gamestop today to pre order and I said " by any chance if it does break will ye call me" They said they would, so when I know you all will know.

    Very true. Its been out in North America since 28th. Although its a bit early for the majority of them to be on.

    XV after 7 would be your best bet I'd say, they sometimes have early releases.

    just got home from City Centre in Cork, no one will be selling it there unless others do, the usual shizz.

    dude in GAME said it would be €45, HMV currently the same, Gamestop currently charging €50, but will no doubt change that about to compete.

    Luckily don't live too far from Blackpool Shopping Centre or Mahon Point for that matter so should they release early, not far to drive.

    What annoys me though, is that Live Seasons are now up on the 360 and PS3.

    Nobody in the Kildare/Dublin region are willing to release it. I've tried nearly everywhere. I think I'll wait until 12 at Tesco tonight.
