    Can some one fill me in on buying off the New Zealand market to get COD AW 12 hours early on top of the day zero pre order bonus? I've bought of the us store before but i had to wait 8hrs later to get Destiny. Don't mind paying a bit extra to get the game 20 hours earlier.

    I pre-ordered from the Singapore marketplace. Get the game 5pm Sunday the 2nd and it was cheaper than the u.s market. NZ market is expensive enough I think.

    I read somewhere that it is an introductory price that is only valid until tomorrow, haven't been able to verify that though, but the price would be right for a 75% reduction of a €14.99 game.

    I bought it anyway, it cleaned up very well actually.

    €236 for the new 500gb one with Fifa 15 in Argos is probably the best atm.

    So tempted to get it... CEX will give you 78€ cash for EW and FH2, so FIFA heads can get a great deal for about 330€

    Think FIFA is a digital download but regardless that's a great deal. Argos really is the best place for buying games and consoles in store right now.

    Ah, didn't spot that. Good point. Still a very decent deal though. I'd be a bit put off buying a One form Argos being honest, all the consoles I've heard about with that buzzing noise have come from Argos

    Is it likely that retailers will start offering their own bundles, like an Xbox One with GTAV etc?

    My console was from Argos and had no issues, mind you the first time I booted it up I had a 2nd hand Kinect from CeX hooked up and the buzzing issue apparently only happens to kinectless consoles.

    Fantastic deal. Good games. But feck it I want a good bundle with Kinect!! Don't understand why you can't get the same deal with the Kinect. They'd still be selling Xboxes and even getting extra profit from the Kinect.

    Honestly it's so much cheaper to pick up the Kinect second hand. I got one on Adverts for €35 but having said that, I can count on one hand the number of times I've used it.

    Yeah that's a option if I could find one. Looking for one in Dublin if anyone happens to be selling :)

    Just checked there, they're only showing as having 1 in Portlaois. I nabbed one in CeX a few months back just incase the price rises when they're available from MS at retail. All I need is an Xbox One now! Might just get the Assassins Creed bundle in Smyths
