    Guys,
    This is one of the those threads that really should be on th egames forum, and it will end up there (and merged) if it turns into a gameplay-related thread.

    The OP is asking about your plans to buy the game. Please keep posts on-topic.

    Game rang me yesterday about my pre-order and when I asked how much they would be selling it for, €75 was the reply :eek:.

    I ordered mine online from Gamestop and they delivered it today. I got it delivered to work so that I was here to sign for it and now it's sitting on my desk, taunting me.

    I need an excuse to get home to play this now!

    Ohhhh, I bought mine off em too, stuck in work until half 4. Hope It'll be home waiting for me. Gamestop are fantastic for delivering early, got Deus Ex on the Wednesday before it came out.

    Did you use the standard or express shipping option?

    Express. I was following the package on Nightline's website and it went from Dublin to Cork overnight and it came to be around 9.30 this morning. If you ordered it from gamestop, there is a tracking on your order information webpage, so you'll be able to see where it is.

    Just back from weekly shop in Tesco and saw it on the shelves for a few cent off €55, it was out on the shelf in the security box which I thought was unusual. - looked like the standard ed but then again I didn't pick it up to look at.
    I've loads of store credit in HMV so just gonna pick it up there but you might be lucky if you try Tesco now (I was in the one in the Merrion Centre)

    Is HMV stocking the limited edition or just normal one and are they giving out any extra DLC with it or a blu ray or anything?

    Yes it was and Game have dropped the price to €59.99 for the LE from the €75 quoted to me on Sunday, picked up my reserved copy today.

    My original post was in relation to a thread (post #30) that has since been merged into this one.

    I checked both Xtravision and Gamestop in the Parkway in Limerick, both €49.99. I'm told HMV has it for €40.99, but I can't make it in there. That Argos offer sounds decent enough, but as you said, it's not on the site.

    Am just back from gamestop in Blanch. Traded in 5 games and got 31 euros for them.

    bulletstorm
    duke nukem
    halo something or other
    gears 2
    Assasians creed.

    Game were offering me 17 euro for the same 5 games. Needless to say I wont be going anywhere near Game again.

    Was just missing one of the games from the 3 where you get gears 3 for 3 euro. :(
