Can't help you, but good work. That must be a decent amount of downloads.

Not sure if 64GB is any use to you since you filled 128GB, but this popped into my inbox today and looks good: https://www.mymemory.co.uk/samsung-64gb-evo-plus-micro-sd-card-sdxc-uhs-i-u3-adapter-100mb-s.html

Try picstop.co.uk as they are generally the cheapest.

Fyi Flatout 4 is one of the games you can trade in for GameStops €20 trade in deal. This game can be bought new for less than €20 online. Should be able to get Bayonetta for about €38 including the price of the game by doing this.

Is Bayonetta on that deal? You could also get Modern Warfare Remastered from Argos for €18.99 and trade that.

Lads do you have a link to their deal?

Flatout 4, not Fallout. And Bayonetta is on the offer according to GameStops twitter account.

My bad, it is indeed.

CiDeRmAn · 16-02-2018 5:05pm

This is great news!
I've a copy of Battlefront 2 that's been boring me, good to make some use of it.

So, in I pop, throw that game up on the counter, no problems...
"Do you have a loyalty card?"
" Why yes, yes I do" pull the lvl 2 card from the wallet.
"That'll be €15 please"

So, not too shabby.
I think I got Battlefront 2 in a deal so it cost me about €20 in the first place, so happy days!

I have Isaac but I just can't get into it at all.

Banjo · 16-02-2018 8:01pm

I have it to. £19.99 on Base, so this is a good price. Not mad for it myself either. Enter the Gungeon gives a similar experience for a 1/4 the price. But some on here are mental for it.

same here, it was free on PS+ ages ago, tried it several times and after 10 minutes each time i'd just put down the controller and load up something else, just could't get into it at all.

CiDeRmAn · 17-02-2018 2:19am

My son is a massive fan of the game, the story, the gameplay, the constant variation.
I couldn't get into it myself but a physical copy is worth €20, particularly as it is a significant game for a lot of people.

RobbingBandit · 19-02-2018 9:29am

Smyths have Fire Emblem Warriors Switch for €30 but you gotta go to Talafornia as of posting this they've got 2

Would fall into the "mental for it" category and appreciate the fact that some thought went into the port regarding unlocks and whatnot, but am a wee bit disappointed that some of the run-ending bugs (not to mention the straight up game-crashing bugs) also made the jump from PC. The 9 Lives/Sacrifice Room game crash has been a very well-known issue since the days of the original Afterbirth release of 2015. It was still there in Afterbirth+'s release and, guess what, it is also on the Switch version.

amadablam · 20-02-2018 12:43pm

For anyone still wondering, that offer in gamestop is still going on with the game trade on the list of games.

Just got Bayonetta 2 on the switch for 18.99 (traded game) + 14.99 extra.

€33.98 is pretty good value for a new game.

Banjo · 20-02-2018 1:59pm

Can you save any more if you then trade Bayonetta 2 back in, activate the Bayonetta 1 code and then buy Bayonetta 2 digitally with the discount afforded by owning B1? From South Africa?

Squeeze every last penny out of this deal!

BTW, the Tallaght copies of Fire Emblem Warriors were phantoms, still waiting on my order to be fulfilled. YoKai Watch is only a tenner though!

Went there yesterday for it. Said all the copies they have left are pre orders (cue the opening of a drawer with about 10 copies which I was told were not for general sale). :rolleyes:
I took a copy of Monster Hunter World instead as it only cost me €35 quid and I can exchange it again

Proof once more that argos really does watch boards modern warfare gone up to €22.99 need to find a less chatty way of doing these deals for yourselves. Big brother is watching
