    Pre-order it from gamesnash.ie. Everytime i've done it, i've received the game in the post the day before official launch :D. i'd be doing so again were i still in the country (plus i have a voucher stored on my account)

    Depends on where you're based, I'm guessing. I saw a sign in the window of Game here in Galway claiming they'd have a midnight opening for Gears. Don't know if that will be any good for you though.

    Keep an eye on gamestop.ie if they do something like they did for Dues Ex people started getting them on the Tuesday before release. They also had a fire sale and sold copies for 26 euro i got one which arrived on Wednesday.

    Game in Limerick are also opening at 12:00. I would think gamestop are going to open as they won't want game getting one up on them on opening day.

    A few Tesco are 24hrs but what they did with Fifa 11 was charge a higher price between Midnight-8am and then dropped it back down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,505 ✭✭✭nevaeh-2die-4


    i dont know why people would by from gamesnash, the game is 51.99,

    i asume swift post costs 5.25 yea? so thats 57.24?

    hmv will be 45.

    is there anywhere online selling for cheap i can get on launch day?

    i have no money on my laser and cant remember the pin to my credit card

    Saw a post online saying game and 16 xtravision stores are doing midnight release, with giveaways throughout the evening, call your local branch to see if they are participating.
