    A bit of an unusual one for ye, but I was in dealz in Santry and they had some PS4 games for €5. The only two that I can remember that were worthwhile were Deus Ex and Titanfall 2. They had some other games too but nothing worth a fiver.

    They had xbone one games and loads of ps3 and 360 games too, I don’t know if other dealz shops are doing games now or if it’s only their santry shop.

    It's in most Dealz just bought Tom's Clancy's The Division for €5 they had FIFA 17 Destiny 1 and a load of PS3 COD Ghosts. always worth checking your local Dealz

    The deal expires tonight at 23:59. I got it anyways, 3 games with some DLC’s included for €25 is worth the risk I’d say. I liked Most Wanted and have been itching to play a racing game lately so it ticked the boxes with me.

    Don't go near it, get the Crew 2 instead. It's fantastic.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,849 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Ah was only looking for something cheap. I'll catch the crew 2 when it hits sale at some point.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    Payback is not worth it. I bought it full price download. Deleted it within a day or two.

    Tbf, you're not just getting Payback but the other two PS4 games for €25. It is a tempting price.

    NFS bundles looks like backlog fodder to me. Havent heard much good about those games in years.

    Personally Project Cars is the best racing game on PS4

    Decided to hold off on Payback, I'm sure it will stay popping up in shops for 20 soon, wood prefer physical to trade it once done. Hopefully there's a nice psn sale today.

    There might be new Week 2 offers on the US/Canadian Mid Year PSN Sale. The Summer Sale should be starting on the Irish store on the 25th July

    Nier Automata is still 21 in Argos but I just noticed CEX offer 21 cash for it so gonna get it today and see what the fuss is about. Seeing 'masterpiece' and 'deeply flawed' thrown around a lot so don't know what to think.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,017 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    Looks like there are some indie digital games on sale on the Irish PSN store

    Is the demo gone from PSN? I played a demo of it when it first came out and while it was fun, I find it hard to imagine someone calling it a masterpiece.

    It has its quirks but I wouldn't call it deeply flawed. The original Nier maybe could be called deeply flawed.

    Fortnite PS4 Pro bundle for €99.99 when you trade in a PS4 and any 2 games in GameStop.

    I called my store today and he said the 2 games are from a list online. Only one I could see is this https://www.gamestop.ie/Software-Trade-In-Offers which isn't really just any 2 games

    It's any 2 games as long as they have a trade value, unfortunately GS store staff have a history of being uninformed or spreading false information.

    Oh nice one then. I specifically didn't go in to trade up for the pro today just because of that. Might get it sorted tomorrow so

    If you’ve a 4K HDR TV, then yes, as soon as you can.

    If you don’t, then only if you’re getting a new PlayStation anyway or have plans to get a 4K HDR TV at some point.

    Either way, it’s a good purchase. There’s not much point in getting a slim model unless you’re on a tight budget.

    The slim, while quieter isn't as good as the original PS4 seeing as it is lacking an optical out port.

    Yes if you plan on getting a PSVR and having dragons tower over you, or getting hunted by a mad homicidal redneck in RE7 ;)

    Do you have a 4K TV? If you don’t, then you’ll see very little benefit

    Depends on what you have now

    I don't know if that's true. I have a 4K TV and a Pro, but I don't always take advantage of the increased resolution and instead prefer to boost the frame rate.

    I was in Henry Street store in Dublin and he said that you get 200 for the old ps4 console and then 50 for each of the games on the list posted here yesterday. Don't know why they don't just clarify on the offer what games are applicable instead of hearing conflicting information from the stores.

    Then it's false advertising as the advert states that it is almost any 2 games, not 2 selected games.

    Edit: Seems stores are varying as usual, some stores looking for games off list and other stores taking anything. Seen online people getting it with any 2 games in the Clarehall store.
