If a kinect is 'worth' €170 then why is a kinectless X1 only €99 less than one with kinect?

That might make sense if they had just released some new killer apps for it.

Or any killer apps for it.

Planning to pick up an X1 in the next week or two. Is €400 with a game the best deal around at the mo?

Re Hasbro Game channels games.

Looks like Monopoly will be 29.99 dollars and its 2 games, you buy a bundle, and get Monopoly Plus and some DLC, and Monopoly Deal (a kinda of fast paced card game).

I'll pick it up, but doesn't look to be available here yet.

How do you get the codes for these? Are they emailed or posted?

Argos seem to have no stock at all of Xbox One's in Dublin, the past week or so. What's up with that! Anyone know if Smyths are doing the one with gta v as a bundle?

Yeah you can get GTA V with the basic Xbox ONE for €399 in Argos but none in stock like you said.

Just has a quick look there for stock:

There's 1 Halo Bundle in Nutgrove.
Lots of White Sunset Overdrive bundles in ALL stores.
Assassins Creed Unity & Black Flag bundle in Dun Laoghaire, Blanch & Liffey Vally

I'd get a halo bundle if I knew for sure it was a proper boxed bundle, like the artwork shows. No other store lists this bundle though, so I reckon it might be just a match up of standard boxed console with halo thrown in.

You can ask to view items in Argos so you could do that in store if you had a chance

Cheers, but I don't fancy a drive out to Nutgrove just to check. The fact no other Irish stores list this bundle more or less tells me it's a mix & match bundle

Best place to buy Halo the Master Chief Collection lads? I've searched around and I thought amazon but it comes to €58. Can anyone beat that do you know?

There is a physical bundle, don't think it was released in Europe but the pack shots are identical to what is on the Argos site so it is possibly correct.

£329 for a One with Halo and Forza 5 GOTY on Amazon btw.

Yep I know the bundle exists alright, I don't think it was an EU bundle though. Plus given the fact Argos are the only site showing that artwork for a Halo Bundle, I don't think it's the one pictured. Could be wrong though

Spudman_20000

Where in the hell are all the proper GTA V and Far Cry 4 bundles, like there is for the PS4? Why don't they want my money???
