    Argos are a mess,i reserved Pro Evo yesterday in naas and when i drove up from dublin they handed me the Euro championship version of the game. Told them it was wrong so they said sorry,mix up of catalogue codes then proceed to try sell me the PS3 version of the game. Explained i reserved amd wanted PS4 version,which it turns out they had no actual stock of. All the dublin stores showed no stock but naas said it had two,when it really didnt. Recently refused to sell me psn vouchers aswell as they wouldnt scan at till despite them being advertised online.

    Also there website keeps loading a furniture page when i click on video games now. By using the above link i did get to reserve a copy of Witcher but ill believe i can get it at that price when i have it in my hand.

    TL;DR Argos seem to have great prices but they dont always have the nessacery stock to back it up. And there stock system/website are a mess.

    In fairness I did think it was a stand alone game too :)

    I don't think Konami released enough content for a stand alone game, just a new stadium, new jerseys and the Euro mode last I heard.

    My friends have been encouraging me to get this - they've buried many, many hours into it. It looks a bit too RPG-y for me.

    I like big sandbox games with strong narratives, good characters and plenty of slashing/shooting (Red Dead Redemption for example) but I switch off the second there's any RPG nonsense involved. Would I like The Witcher 3?

    I'm not an rpg fan. Tried elder scrolls and stuff like that but just never warmed to them. Said id give the witcher 3 a shot as I saw it going cheap somewhere. Its now one of my favourite games ever!

    HMV have a great sale at the moment. Most games have 30, 40 or 50% off. I just got The Crew for 12 quid after 40% off.

    Beat me to it, was in Dundrum and got Shadow of Mordor for PS4 for €12.50. Saw Watchdogs for €10, Mad Max €15 and Evolve for €7.50. A lot of games very much at Amazon prices.

    Any console deals?

    Didn't spot any, I doubt it though as not everything had discounts, the Lego Dimensions accessories were still full price. Seemed to be games, music and DVD's.

    That's just for the DLC extras you get for preordering. I did the same and will be picking it up tomorrow

    Ah that makes sense did you get a mail to say the game is available to pick up or just the one mail.

    Got same dlc email. Probably won't get collection email till morning as its needed to collect from store and if they sent it today odds are people will chance their arm and try getting it tonight.

    Thought as much but didn't want to put the code into the store in case it was for the game preload . I'd say there will be a fair few changing their arms alright.

    I got the Smyths code too. It didn't work for me. Did this happen to anyone else? Do we know what exactly it's for?

    Code probably isn't active yet. Had that problem with AC:Black Flag on launch. Try it again tomorrow.
