I think Powercity is in this unit in Fonthill, if not then it's in the one next door. http://goo.gl/maps/RuhYp

I remember getting an iPad in there once when it was sold out everywhere else, so you could be lucky :pac::pac::pac:

Yep, that's the one.

Well it looks like if you are willing to queue you will 100% get one!

Anyone know whether Xtravision on Headford road in Galway or Gamestop in Eyre Square are going to have any available without a preorder?

RobbingBandit

Stop posting that Power City ad, nothing to see here folks they're all already gone, don't bother to queue at 6 am.

Cantona's Collars

Spotted an ad for PS4, seems like some branches of Expert will have them.

Does the KillZone bundle just include the game? I assume a second controller isn't involved?

RobbingBandit

there are two killzone bundles, one with only the game for €439.99 or one with the game, an extra pad and the camera for €499.99.

I might chance one of the Tesco's in Cork there tomorrow morning there before work, not sure about whether to try Wilton or Douglas, no time to do both.

I'm not even that pushed about picking one up tomorrow but I wouldn't say no! . TBH, I can only assume that any sort of half "switched-on" buyer would have no trouble picking up one of these before xmas if they keep up the monitoring of the situation on this forum

Is there any FIFA bundle?

Was in the one in Wexford the other day, and he was telling me they will only have the Knack Bundle.

I want a picture with a piece if paper on it with "boards.ie" on it or you are a troll.

I was in there this evening they had no idea how many or when they'd get them in. They expect them late tonight.....

Both Wilton and Douglas can't sell them until 8am

Don't bother, it's a child who keeps making new accounts after they get banned.

Does anybody know whether if you got a us version would you have to buy American games only and is there a power difference.

No, you may be able to get it at a discount in Argos but no there is no official FIFA bundle, only KNACK and Killzone afaik.

MadYaker

Id say if you don't get one tomorrow donedeal for €600 is your only option to get one before xmas.

Jesus Christ, cheers! My head is spinning from all these threads etc, that would have been some mistake.

And I was only on their bloody website earlier, so I should have known well. Thanks again.

Where are you queuing? Many others there? Give us some info man!!

davkel

Its not region locked so most of the games wll work the issue is with the power and the warranty. I'm heading to new york for a week in the morning and was thinking about getting one but too many risks involved i'd rather be able to bring it back if something went wrong. I might get a couple of games when i'm over there though as they're cheaper.
Also as i wont be able to get one in the morning i've pre-ordered on amazon, from reading various sources online there will be enough to cover the orders before christmas and that's really when i want it for, my plan was to buy it hand it to my wife and then wake up to it on christmas morning.

This whole " not able to get one is weird " Yep, I did per order one in gamestop in early September , was told it was unlikely I would get on before Christmas.

Tonight I received a call from Gamestop telling me that they had the killzone bundle available tomorrow If I wanted it !

I have been checking with them on a regular basis since September, only to be told that there was no way in hell I would get this even with pre order, and now this.

The gamestop is the one in Stephens Green.

I am beginning to wonder if this whole " You'll never get your hand on one this side of xmas , is a myth ".

Northside Dublin bout 60 people now, think a few people are chancing their arm to see if they'll get one with no pre order.

Don't forget to download the 1.51 update from here and install it via usb. It could be a long wait to download it tomorrow.
