    Worth it for the campaigns alone imo!

    That's some amount of game for that price!

    Tried Argos and while their cheap the specials with them were awful,
    No free game nothing :/
    Smyths were dear enough if I can remember

    Any sites online even to buy? Amazon seem quite expensive due to the sterling ;/

    Seriously. Argos are €10 cheaper for that FIFA bundle, plus they are doing the 1TB Forza 6 console for €330 and The Division 1TB bundle for €340. All of those are great deals, especially the Forza Bundle as it is a variant blue console.

    I've seen a couple of brand new bundles online in Adverts. I went halves with my sister for my Nephew just over a week ago and got a decent bundle.

    Searched condition *new*.
    I put in an offer €30 less than asking, with the intention of haggling. Accepted straight away.

    I also forgot to say, you can go in with a pretty low offer and haggle, if that doesn't work out for you, move on to another.
    There are quite a few of them, and they are brand new.

    That's a drop in the ocean for what I usually download. It's probably the most glaring example of the digital divide that I run into all the time, I've gone fully digital this generation, and am absolutely loving it, but for other people, it's just not viable in any way.

    When discussing stuff on here, I have to force myself to remember that other people can't/won't invest in a high speed broadband line (usually can't).

    That digital divide is only going to get worse too, I've got 200 mb at the moment, and in a few years I expect to be closer to 1 gb. I very much doubt that anyone down the country is going to anywhere near 200 mb at that stage.

    Thats a good deal , except 500gb will drop down to 300/350gb after an update when setting it up which sucks but not a bad deal

    Ahh, fair enough. In the market for one of these bundles as well, but Smyths dont accept one4all vouchers so never bothered checking stock.

    Who knows, maybe we can expect a big drop with E3 coming up

    If you are specifically after the Fifa bundle you would be better off getting the 500gb on its own for €300 in GameStop and spending €25 on a years EA Access sub. Comes to pretty much the same price and you will get access to all the EA games in the vault, including FIFA 16.

    The 500GB version of the Fifa bundle comes with 1 month of EA Access.

    The Smyth's €299 deal for the 500gb FIFA bundle is out of stock, also the Argos forza console is gone too. Sad times :(

    €392 if you use Parcel Motel. That's an unreal bargain!

    Or if you choose the 1 day delivery, it's €412 inclusive.
