    Anyone tried buying this bundle?

    I've tried and they've cancelled my order twice without explanation!!

    Using Parcel Motel and an Irish CC.

    Would this be the issue?

    I've bought games and acessories a few times recently from this site without any issues.

    Just ordered it myself there. it hasnt been cancelled yet but will let you know if it is.

    they do mention on their site that they wont ship to PO boxes so Parcelmotel might be the problem.

    The only other thing i can come up with is that they have a note saying pre-orders aren't available with their express shipping and its the only shipping option!!

    Lucky you! Bundle is gone now from Game website! Raging is not the word....

    Smyths have it for €65,
    Xtravision/HMV for €70
    Gamestop have it for €75.

    Smyths would be your best bet for a walkin purchase otherwise you can get it cheaper in the likes of Amazon if you are willing to wait 1 or 2 days.

    Argos will probably have it below 60.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    They have Halo MCC for €55 so they may well do some deal.

    Strange, on their website if you scroll through the bundles it shows the same one lower down the page but when you click on it, it doesn't offer Forza.

    When i bought it yesterday on the product description in the basket it didn't mention Forza and also the description on the main page was only about Halo MCC and COD but nothing about Forza so looks like it may have been a mistake to include Forza?

    I took a screen shot of the page anyway before I purchased it so will argue it if i don't get Forza as part of the bundle.

    I'd say there will be some great deals coming up to christmas anyway

    Yes Parcel Motel is required as Game don't ship packages bigger than 1kg outside the UK.

    You are better off getting a 12 month Gold sub as it works out cheaper over the year.

    An extra £50 sounds a little high for the pad and sub, but yes it is a good price. To buy everything here at retail would cost you upto around €735 in Gamestop.

    Console €400,
    Halo €70
    COD €75,
    Forza 5 €60
    Lego Marvel €65
    Control Pad €50,
    3 month XBL Gold €15.

    This is at the high end, overall on the console bundle you are saving between €100-€110 on Argos' price(who are cheapest here) for everything mentioned(€611).

    Argos' price is
    Console + COD €380
    Halo €56
    Lego Marvel €40
    Forza 5 standard edition €54
    Xbox One Controllor €42(save €13 offer with Halo)
    3 months XBL Gold €19

    £35 for controller and £13 for sub
