Xbox Bargain Alerts (Games/Hardware/Accessories) MOD Note post #1

Myrddin · 2014-05-22 10:24:27

So we don't seem to have a thread to advise others of discounted/on sale/bargain price games & hardware...we do now though :) This thread can cover both physical AND digital game bargains, consoles & accessories but obviously isn't to be confused with our Weekly XBLA Game Deals thread, nor our Games with Gold thread.

Does anyone know if this is an online only offer or can you pick it up in the brick and mortar stores?

I'd say the best thing to do is phone your local Gamestop.

I popped into a store, and yes it is an online only offer.

Ah sorry, don't know what I was thinking.
Thought you were getting a copy of AC with a live ship!!

I ordered at 2:15 (Tom Clancy) and it was shipped by 3:05 on Saturday.

In that 50 mins, I had sent a message to their CS, as I wanted them to swap the shipping and billing addresses.

They only got back to me about 20 mins ago to say they he has done it for the 2nd part of my order.

They must be shipping the physical cards out for Xbox live

GameStop now doing a trade up offer against the One X. Trade in a PS4 or Xbox One and two select games and get the X for €200.

Not sure what the select games are but if you've the original One that's a serious offer.

ARE YOU F(*&££ING KIDDING ME

I bought a One X about 2 weeks ago, haven't traded my original xbox in yet. I probably don't have any of the select games but I'm still mad.

To be honest it was always going to happen. They spent ages on the S upgrade offer, then went to the Pro offer so I was half expecting an X offer but definitely not this soon.

If I was you I'd trade the old Xbox in and get the X then sell that on Adverts for €400ish

I would say there is a good chance the two select games are from the trade 2 games get a game for €1 list.

Just tried to order it there - went for cod ww2 for 25. 12 months would've been 13 euro. Went all the way through with PayPal and tried to click pay but was redirected to the GameStop website, nothing in my cart anymore. Link doesn't seem to work now also.

I ordered COD WWII this morning. Was wary because it was Gheystop doing the deal. Gave in to my greed and it looks like Gheystop are up to their old tricks again.

Well it looks like nobody got their Xbox code? Although I must be mistaken by the sounds of your reply.

I emailed them

"Due to low stock levels, we have had to split your order to multiple locations."

We'll receive the games first it seems and the codes later.

Titanfall 2 Ultimate Edition is €6 from Microsoft.

It's £5.25 on the UK site if you want to save a few pennies.

I got the same, but I think it's ok. When you go to view the order number on the Gamestop website, it doesn't list the live as part of the order either - I think this is just as when you click through to the order details, the Sub has no value attached.

Yeah, hopefully you're right. Will see what happens over the next few days

This same deal is over in the Bargain Alerts forum. Someone says they got the game by courier and the code by post.
