    Heard today most gamestop stores have over 300 bookings each on the standard, hope they are not all night owls, also seen there will be fast track tills in most stores for those of us fully paid up in advance.

    Hi,
    With the much anticipated release of GTA V getting ever closer it is important that you receive your copy as soon as possible and without any issue or
    delays.
    We advise that you have the necessary funds in the account linked to your order a week before release (10th September) so as to avoid any issues with
    payments or lack of funds which can prevent an order from being processed in a timely manner.
    If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

    Kind regards,
    GameStop

    I've ordered from gamesnash but was in tescos portlaoise and asked about the midnight release and was told that they'll have it on Tuesday but close at 12 and customers can only buy it at 6am Wednesday .
    But im sure 24hr tescos in other places will just sell it after 12

    anyway just a heads up for the peeps in Laois

    Think you get a fiver back when you collect but maybe not!

    Trading in 2 games to get GTA V makes Gamestop the best option by a mile imo seeing as the list of games to trade in is huge and they aren't worth the money they're giving you for them!

    I'm trading in two games tomorrow now :pac:
    But on a serious note this better not be a sign of things to come for next gen and the like

    XBox preorders sold out on Gamesnash :(

    My own fault for leaving it so late.

    Link says you can get Saints Row, Spliter Cell or The Bureau for 99c?

    sure it includes GTA?

    It's a slightly different offer, pretty sure it's 9.99 when trading two games off that list

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,377 ✭✭✭Smithwicks Man


    GTA IV Episodes from LC can be bought for €10-15 and they gave me €27.50 off of GTA V for it!

    You went up to the counter and bought it then traded straight in at same store?

    No :pac:

    I had it from before. Traded in both GTA IV and GTA IV: Episodes from LC and got €27.50 for each of them

    They both can be bought for around €15 though, try xtra vision or ebay

    Is there a way to preorder (for collection) with Gamestop, without having to walk in store? Don't want to have to travel to Gamestop to preorder, and not sure I can make it this week before their closing time.

    Nope, yiz have to be in the shop, they don't do anything like that over the phone.

    Went into gamestop earlier and was told it was HIGHLY ADVISABLE to get your receipt stamped as early as possible i.e when the shop opens at 10 as they don't know yet if they can facilitate the numbers they're getting for the midnight launch and are working on a first come first served basis.

    What if they dont stamp it, ie liffy street

    Fuck knows.

    I was told they only have a certain amount to give out on midnight due to security restrictions,especially in shopping centres since they can't really have 800 people in one space at once in a shopping centre.As for stand alone stores i'm not sure.

    traded in my old GTA but they wouldnt take my "Red Dead Redemption" as it was the "undead nightmare" zombie version , so i took that into CEX Derry , traded it for the original which i got for £4 ( cover price was £10) then took it to gamestop and they happily accepted that version ,

    going thru gamestops list id say off the bat look for one of the GTAs , Red Dead Redemption, or Batman Arkham City for the xbox360 if you want one of the games cheap from their trade in list , good luck everyone , roll on tuesday :)
