    This set really bombed, they've been trying for months to flock these and still most stores are full of them.

    In fairness, the game itself is fairly "meh". Run here, shoot this, run over here, shoot that.

    The "story" has gotten so convoluted at this stage, I don't know how anyone could understand it. I think they've disappeared up their own backsides with the lore.

    The single player was pretty bland and boring, gave up at the first boss battle.

    The MP is great though, I haven't played it in months and I've heard it's gotten better with every update.

    Isn't pretty much every big collectors edition now knocking around for half the price in no time?

    Don't post this in the main Argos Bargains Thread because people will clear it out in no time and they will be up for sale on Adverts later for €45.

    I just reserved two in Wexford to collect later.

    Argos in The Crescent in Limerick says there is a problem with the ones they have and they can't sell them, something about not being able to top them up. Presume they can't activate them.

    Anyone buy any today?

    That's gas, about to head there myself right now! Dropped the missus off to work at the hospital and we live outside Murroe so it's on the way home.

    If I see someone try to buy them there I'll say hello.

    No go in Childers Road either, that's 2 stores now that are reporting problems with them and can't sell them.

    Pity, great deal.

    Well at least with 2 of the stores in Limerick. Maybe see if you can ring the store to avoid a wasted trip.

    Argos are usually good if an item has been reserved, i.e. they usually honour it, even if it was a price mistake.
    Did the two stores in Limerick have them reserved?

    The problem APPEARS to be that they can't be activated at the till, not so much that they aren't honoring the price.

    I was told the same in Wexford. The manager tried to put them through a second time but when he tried to scan them to activate them he said they wouldn't activate.

    In both stores there was stock and no issues with the price.

    The issue was that because they have some issues activating them they couldn't sell them.

    One person in the Crescent in Limerick says they have had problems since Christmas.
