    Got Far Cry Primal & both Wolfenstein games for under € 30. Now all I have to do is play them. Got a few games in last year's sale, don't think I've even started some of those yet!

    If I didn't like the first skate would there be any chance I'd like the 3rd one? (9.99 on XBL at the moment)

    Loved the old Tony Hawk games but felt the first skate was too slow and I hated the camera angle right behind your skater.

    I was the same as you I loved all the Tony Hawks games and got the first skate game and didn't like it either.

    I watched some youtube videos of Skate 3 and it looks faster than the original. I would advise you to check them out as well just to see how it plays. There is online game modes as well in Skate 3.

    Really? I thought it was on sale at the moment?


  • Registered Users Posts: 301 ✭✭pcadhain


    That was only a backwards compatible launch price. More offers will be live for the weekend, most likely Thursday evening. Some details here :)

    Gears and Forza Horizon 3 are up.

    Gears is 40% off, I can't see the discount on regular Forza because I've the demo installed but the Ultimate Edition is 20% off.

    €42 on the Irish Store now reduced from €70

    (70-42)/70 x 100 is 40% isn't it :confused:

    Somehow, you're both correct! It's 40% in Ireland and 35% in Singapore. Singapore was the cheapest to buy at full price so it's got a smaller discount. Major Nelson did say something to the effect of different discounts in different regions.

    Haha, after me setting up a Deals on Foreign stores thread, I go and accidentally post one myself. I'm in the UK, so I work off that store, so technically it wasn't a foreign deal to me.....

    I must admit, I'm struggling to avoid that Gears of War deal now.

    Give yourself 5 lashes, stand facing the corner for 30 minutes and we'll call it quits. :D

    Best deals will most likely be Argos and Amazon. Some great deal online already for consoles.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,397 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    Would they be expected to go down much in price on Friday?

    Little fella is looking for a One S and the 500gb with BF1 for €299 in Argos or about €280 plus delivery online seems to be the best.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,476 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Are people really expecting much from Black Friday? I think the whole thing is a bit of a swizz, discounts on end of line products but not on premium stuff.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,247 ✭✭✭Max Mafioso


    Got an email from CDKeys
    Save over 50% on RRP for Call of Duty Infinite Warfare Legacy Edition by using discount Code COD888OFF

    I think it might be for PC though

    It's actually Black "Friweek"

    A great way to ship out lots of rubbish tbh

    These online sales are a bit of a copout anyway. If everyone buys online, they'll be depriving me of such entertaining footage from the US like seeing nana get trampled in the rush to get a flatscreen tv.

    Some alright deals but yes most are crap.

    Picked up an UE Boom 2 speaker for £85 on Amazon, can be around €180 normally.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    Looking to pick up a couple of the flashy controllers for xmas gifts (pretty paint, not elite). Best prices I've seen are £42 on Amazon for one of the blues and £55 for one of the pink ones. Does that seem right? The 42 seems like a very good price to me...

    44 quid delivered or 40 quid plus parcel motel, great price I think


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    Cheers for the replies lads, that Gears one is a great price! Was on chat with Microsoft there, they're US store is showing most of the controllers with paint jobs as being half price for black friday so I think I'll hold my breath for a couple of days and hope it makes it to the UK/Ire one (chat lady didn't know).
