    Might pick up San Andreas just for the hell of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,448 ✭✭✭corcaigh07


    for 4 euro, san andreas is quite tempting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    LOL. Trials HD gave me an error message the other night when trying to buy it. Phew, as they say.


  • Registered Users Posts: 241 ✭✭AndyKiely


    Thankfully I'm too cheap and I wait for big bargains like this! Good few games gonna be bought there methinks :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭djkeogh


    great prices for Splosion Man and Trials in fairness. If you don't have either of those it's a must.

    turn on your xbox folks, i suspected these deals were for USA because of the 720 point movies, our deals are a bit different.

    monkey island 1 and monkey island 2 are 400 each. trails HD-DLC is 240.

    My mistake... they're offering daily deals, so pick up the Trials DLC today if you plan on getting the game during the week

    So all of the games posted above are not available at the cheap prices?

    got 800 pointaroos on the account, probably get trials

    maybe the splinter cell add on or portal 2


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭djkeogh


    Oh I might grab the Trials DLC alright. Finished the game on Hard but haven't really gotten anywhere on expert yet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,206 ✭✭✭maximoose


    Will be getting Splosion Man, excellent stuff :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    At least NFL Arcade is still on sale here so I am currently downloading that.

    Be careful, that's not Portal 2 as such. It's Portal 1.5, so to speak. The same game off the Orange Box with a few bonus puzzles.

    If you haven't played Portal before, it's a steal at 400 points. If you have the orange box already, it's probably not worth it.

    The real Portal 2 is due out in April 2011 (or whenever Valve see fit).

    nice idea, would rather get the trials game though, but its just the add on there boo urns

    I got Zombie Apocalypse when it was deal of the week last time, have to say I quite enjoyed it. Well worth the 400 , was fun in co-op.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,128 ✭✭✭thorbarry

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,222 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    went to download serious sam hd for 600 and price is coming up 1200 still any reason why?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,586 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    What are the cheapest places to get xbox points? Or are they more or less the same throughout?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭-=al=-


    think they're the same give or take a few $$ or so in diff places


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71
