    Mine is in PM NI at the moment.
    From past experience they usually don't send a van to Limerick until the early hours of the following morning.
    I definitely won't get it today anyway! Roll on tomorrow :D

    Gamestop are the most expensive as usual. Why anyone buys new games there I'll never know. There is always a cheaper alternative.

    Right so I'm a PC gamer, but there is an Xbox somewhere in my house and GTA V has broken me.


    Are there any shops in the City centre (Dublin) still selling the game?


  • Registered Users Posts: 471 ✭✭gizabeer


    Smyths at Liffey valley had lots of each format left 20 mins ago


  • Registered Users Posts: 99 ✭✭finlaycm


    Cheers,

    But it might as well be on the moon as Liffey valley. I'll go try Gamestop at St Stevens green

    Good thing you don't have to buy it so, seeing as GTA Online is included at no extra cost I think it's really good value on the exception of GameStop. There's is hours and hours of replay value in GTA so over the course of it's lifetime its well worth the price.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,308 Mod ✭✭✭✭.ak


    Do the tescos in town sell it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 155 ✭✭b_mac


    Any place I could get my hands on one for an Xbox in Cork?... boi

    It's a tricky argument you just used. Cause there are games with more replay value that never costed that much on release date. This is just stores bumping the price as they assume game will get sold anyway - it's a correct assumption considering the GTA brand and hype

    Went with Amazon and beside them breaking release date, seems they left alot of people in the lurch, no information on mine as of two days : /

    Pity as I had a Ps3 copy I could of taken this morning that I turned down , feel like a right tit now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    I have a few reservation codes for GTA V (Xbox) in the following Argos': Ilac, Omni (both Argos' out there), Blanch and Liffey Valley. If anyone needs one or anything just give us a shout.

    Just rang Nightline and was assured I'd have mine today at around 17:30 so won't need them. Not sure if Argos are even honouring the reservations so that's why I put so many in. ;)

    Yeah and you're preventing what 5 other people buying it?

    Why would you prevent other people from reserving the game? Do people honestly think that if you reserve in Argos that they will sell it to someone else the first chance they get? What you did is dickish and selfish as hell.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 92 ✭✭TheKingslayer


    price on amazon has shot right back up,thank the Gods I got it for the princely sum of €45.

    Special thanks to the lad who helped my brother get it last night due to him being underage.

    Not so special thanks to McLove, the man who refused to give a young 16 year old a dig out and purchase his copy for him. Cheers pal.

    I can't believe I was worried last night.

    There were loads of copies in HMV Henry Street this morning at about 9.30.

    Gamestop looked the same.
