Let's not forget you also get 10% of all EA games purchased, and 10 hours of free play with any*** new game.

Note*** definition of "any" may change, if EA decides to keep a game out of the 10 hours free play, like they did with Titanfall 2.


Finally, if you only want to play Titanfall and don't care about this, cdkeys has is under 10 euro.

It's good value but I wouldn't play many of the games.

Its a shame Microsoft won't let you use your Xbox live credit to purchase a prepaid subscription to EA.

Yeah, its the same for buying xbl subs from MS. Don't know why the prepaid sub cards aren't available here either.

I think it is only a Ms Splosion man "add on stage", not the full game.

After much, read very little, deliberation. I took a years subscription on it. Sure it is good enough value even for the 3-4 games that I will play.

according to pricescanner, decent selection of console games are on sale in smyths - eg Fallout 4 for 24.99.

% discount varies depending on the game and platform....not sure if this is online only

Fallout is that price in store.

Sorry if not allowed to be asked. If I buy an American Xbox live voucher will this allow me to buy games from the American store if I change region?

Yes.

Cheers Misky. Do I need to change my address to a US address or will just changing regions be OK because the voucher will be in dollars?

And that's where the line is

Talk of regions and bargains on other regions is fine, but talk of false addresses isn't allowed, sorry.

So close for what it's worth the bargain I'm looking at is Shadow of Mordor: GOTY for 10 dollars on the US store :P

Picked that up the other day great deal haven't played the game yet so looking forward to that

Not an unbelievable bargain but a lot of pre order games like FIFA 17, Forza Horizon 3 and Mafia 3 are £37 on Amazon at the moment (around E43). If you don't mind waiting a few days after release for the game, these are pretty good prices.

Thats still pretty damn good!

Shocking that Amazon are price matching, Smyths in this case. Haven't seen them do this in a while.

Undercutting Smyths. Its 60 quid to pre-order FIFA there.

Smyths up north are £37 or something like that.

Mafia 3 gone down to £35. Arrgghh not sure if I should risk it. Loved the 2nd one but would like to see some reviews before buying.

Do Amazon charge you straight away or when the game is despatched?

Feck it pre ordered FH 3, Mafia 3 and Gears 4. I'll cancel Mafia and Gears closer to the date if I get cold feet :P £35 each for both of them is a great price though.

Lord Spence

you can get the 500gb xbox one s with fifa 17 for £224 on amazon now, price matching tesco. Also there are a few gift voucher bonus offers aswell, top up your amazon account by £60 get £3 free and buy £30 gift card get £7 free found these on HUKD, also they are offering prime for one month free again even if you had a previous trail. So all in all I got the Xbox one s with fifa 17 delivered to parcel motel for £214 with release day delivery (i'll get it Friday due to parcel motel) , my calculation that works out at €252 including parcel motel charge. So I sold launch xbox one for €180 and I was going to buy fifa anyway so that would have been another €50 so basically for €22 I got myself an upgraded xbox with 4k bluray player, new controller and new 12 month warranty.. It was a bit messy but think that is a solid deal

They do a one pound charge against your card straight away (just got notified of this by my Revolut app). Then the rest when it dispatches.

Worth keeping in mind the dispatch date will likely be just before the release date, in case you need to top up a prepaid card like a Revolut.

Hey cactus!


What's FH 3? I feel like I should know this, but drawing a complete blank

£35 is a great price for Mafia 3, probably gonna pre-order at that price! I better finish my Mafia II playthrough by then!
