    Just carried the fooking thing from st Stephens green to pearse station. Tis a heavy bastard for such a compact package.

    I enjoyed that bottle of water and feel like I've bonded with the Xbox :P

    Hi,

    Please help me. I'm looking to get an Xbox one as a present for christmas, and I have no idea where go, as everywhere seems sold out!! Its so annoying.
    I had a look at the US microsoft site and they have them available there, and I could get it shipped via a delivery website (like myus) but I need to know it will be here for christmas, and also that it will work in Ireland.

    I would prefer to just go into a shop a purchase it here. That way I would know I have it for sure. I called into Harvey Norman and the sales assistant laughed at me when I asked could I get one. Is there an Irish online , or bricks and mortar store I can go to.

    Please help. I am a desperate mammy ;-)

    I got a call from Xtravision earlier today, I ordered a standard edition on Thursday, they had just gotten a delivery of the Ghosts edition and were working through the list to see if I wanted to take it. I just picked mine up, the girl said that they're getting another delivery on Monday, so maybe some stock in Xtravision at the moment. Alsoust checked the Syths website and most braches are showing in stock (some are saying low stock), so might be worth checking out for anyone who still hasn't ordered

    Picked up an xbox in HMV today in the Cresent. No booking or preorder. Seemingly they have started cancelling uncollected pre orders there.

    The guy who made the thread is selling a Ps4 for 600 quid. Rather ironic.
