Was looking for a good deal on a controller for a while and seen this one HDUK. £44.99 (€52 ish) for a black Xbone controller and the add says it comes with Forza 6.

Missed out on it the other day and its just popped up again now. It actually comes with 3 codes in the email, a code for Forza 6, one for Forza Horizon 3 and another for a Ferrari car for Forza 3.

Works out pretty sweet for me as I have a hard copy of Forza 3 which I believe CEX give €29 cash or €38 credit for so I'm gonna trade my hardcopy and will have Forza 6 and a controller for €23

Cheers for this, having difficulty them accepting payment, but i'll try again later.

Are you trying on a mobile or on a computer? Mobile was a disaster for me last week, their desktop website isn't much better.

I paid with Visa Debit no bother and folks on hduk saying PayPal was fine too.

My xbox live isnt up until the end of april, but i presume the code will be fine until then? Or will it run concurrently if i was to redeem straight away?

maximoose

If you redeem it now the subscription will stack, so you'll be good until end of april 2018

Wheres the best place to get a cable for the wireless controller in xbox 360.i have seen a few cheap ones on amazon with conflicting reviews about quality etc and i would rather pay extra to get a decent one but i cant seem to see them on the official microsoft site.

They usually come with the rechargeable battery pack as far as I know, I've never seen them on their own.

Its just the usb cable from the controller to the console i am looking for to save me using batteries,i would of thought there would be an official microsoft one?

Something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01CA0BDP8/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1489407242&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=cable+for+xbox+360+controller+to+console&dpPl=1&dpID=41008eNSWUL&ref=plSrch
But as i said the reviews come with conflicting quality

Max Mafioso

I am not 100% sure but I don't think they are sold separately unless Gamestop have then 2nd hand
They normally come with the battery pack

Anyone know if the Base game for Destiny can be got digitally on its own. Only see the collection available online but I have all the DLC and would be nice to have the Base game digital copy as opposed to have to go out buying a hardcopy of it in CEX or Gamestop.

No, the game is only available as part of the Collection digitally with all 4 dlc packs.

Smyths are selling TTK disc sets for €15 if you need a hard copy.

Black controller and Forza codes showing up as back in stock on Game website. Someone on HDUK just posted saying he redeemed all 3 codes there.

It's a great deal if you don't have the games, have them on hardcopy or can flog digital codes

Just wondering if anyone else who ordered this deal got their controller yet? Mines been posted more than 10 days ago and still no sign. Emailed GAME and despite the website quoting 3-5 days for European delivery, they actually say Ireland is international and takes 21 days to deliver a package from the UK to Ireland.

Absolute joke of a company to deal with, between the website being utter muck and delivery times being beyond ridiculous. Still a great deal though

I ordered on the 7th and my controller arrived yesterday, never got a message saying it was dispatched or when to expect it.
