    Where are the games in supervalu, is there any in churchtown

    They only get the big titles so they have them behind the customer service counter usually.

    Yep, click most tabs and even the text can come up in numbers on the left side.

    'Looking for an Xbox sir? Click here '....... 'Ok, here is a deep fat fecking fryer that you didn't click ' (it gets really annoying after a while, all the indexing is messed up)

    tip for Argos site, which fixes most of the page not loading at all / correctly for me is to simply add letter L to the end of the url in the address bar and hit enter. so html instead of htm.

    Did you have to argue your case or were you just able to pick it up off the self service kiosk?

    Checked the machine in there and it said games were free so asked at counter and he said my reserve price was wrong and that it was 364.99 on the system so worked out well!

    I reserved the xbox 500gb with Halo 5, Black Ops 2 and Fifa 16 today. Went in this evening and went to the counter as the self serve kiosk advised I couldn't purchase there and I got the whole lot for 365 even though my reserve details showed as 385. Mention it to the staff and when they put it through the price will show as it should at 365 Euro.

    Best bargain I have seen in a long time. Had to go for it.!!!!

    Git on it.!!!

    500gb Fifa console is showing at €349.99 on Argos today with special offer of Black Ops and Halo free. Gives a total of €370.99 when added to the basket but I reckon you'd get them for the €349.99 in store.

    Stick it on Adverts. Ie and it should sell pretty handy. Or you could try Ebay if you fancy letting an auction run.

    For €408 delivered, I think the 1TB bundle is better value.
    You get 1TB drive, 3 Months Gold, Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition (Download Code), Rise of the Tomb Raider, Star Wars Battlefront, and Battlefront Early Access.

    Not all stores have them. My local one used to be a superquinn and has never stocked games. Another one around the corner was always a SV and stocks the big games like COD AND fifa.

    Or just do what I did, buy the Argos Deal, it's a 500GB Xbox One with Fifa 16, and physical copies of Halo 5 and Black Ops 3.

    Sold the Xbox for 300, Halo 5 for 50, and got Black Ops 3 for free. :)

    Ok. Scored the Argos Xbox one 1TB with Halo for €349. Swapped Halo for Kinect (don't laugh kids want Just Dance).

    Now looking to buy a few games and amazon.de and amazon.fr have the best prices. I assume the only downside is the packaging will be local? Games should run in English in my system?

    I know the Germans have very particular ratings on games, blood has to be blue, language used and higher morals when it comes to innocents being shot.
    Anyone experience buying German games?

    well lads, i tried getting the fifa 16 bundle w/ blops 3 and halo but it said the bundle was out of stock but i reserved it anyway. Then in the reservation it says im getting blops 3 and halo for 10.50 each and gave me a confirmation email but no xbox. Do i have any case if I go in tomorrow or will they straight up say "no chance buddy"?

    Try one of the machines in Argos. It could still say no but saves the embarrassment.
