    FIFA 15 Ultimate Edition bargain, buying it from Xbox store is 70€, change your location to USA and it will be 70$ and you can also download it on the Tuesday instead of having to wait until Friday, all you have to do is buy a $ pre-paid card from amazon. Even better if you have EA Access then it will only cost you 63$ which is only like 50€.

    With EA Access you'll also be able to start playing it this Thursday or Friday for up to 6 hours of the full game and have your progress save and carry over to the retail release. You'll also have it pre-loaded early.

    Btw Ultimate Team Edition is €79.99 on Irish store and €48.63 on U.S store with EA Access so quite a saving to be had!

    So save almost 40euro and get it 3 days early, sounds good to me 😛

    Anyone know of anywhere that do XBONE controllers sub €50?
    Seems steep!


    Gamestop do a "bundle" deal - 50e for the controller, charger, headphones and HDMI cable if that helps?


    NB - XBOX 360! Not Xbox one

    I stuck the controller into flubit and they came back with an offer of €36 delivered (To parcel motel)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,557 ✭✭✭GrumPy


    Third party play & charge kits are only £6.95 on game.co.uk. Even with parcel motel charge, you could buy 4 of them for the price of one from gamestop/argos/smyth's over here.

    No doubt a mistake but Forza Horizon 2 €54.99 on Xbox One from HMV.ie

    http://www.hmv.ie/Forza-Horizon-2/movies-games-entertainment/pd/105025?path=xbox-one

    Actually, same price on the Smyths website but that doesn't look like a mistake, 360 version €45.

    Fair price for a car game, in fairness.

    Well at £350 a piece for the PS4 and Xbox One makes them about €30 more than the €400 they are here. Not suprised to see a small price drop to remove the discrepancy.

    Does anyone know how much Sniper Elite 3 was at launch - its coming up as €50 in the deals with gold, but I thought that it was released at a lower initial retail price? I'm tempted, but I think it should be cheaper.
