    You do, but you also have to deal with the 90% of cretins that populate adverts. Cex is handy, and you can just check prices online.

    Personally, adverts.ie is the best place for selling new games. You'll get about 15 euro extra compared to trading in during the first few weeks.

    People on adverts.ie can be morons but so can people on other sites, even boards.ie - worse in fact because the likes of boards.ie doesn't have a feedback system. Someone might seem like a nice person on here and then rob a game from someone. On adverts.ie, you can get their team to interject.

    So for a new game, Adverts.ie followed by CeX then HMV/Smyths and finally Gamestop.

    The adverts.ie guys don't interject and have no power to. I've been sold dogy stuff on adverts before and the only help they gave me was to call the police when I was sold stuff that didn't work.

    The same happened to me. I recieved a postal order and sent the game before I cashed it. The postal order had a "stop" put on it. Lesson learned for me. Luckily the game was only worth €20.

    Advice from Adverts was to call the Gardai. I'm in Cavan. She was in Laytown, Co. Meath so I doubt much would be done.

    I'm only up the road...

    Send me her address and I'll gladly leave a lump of flaming shïte on her door.... :)

    Before I get banned, mods, tis a joke....

    does Singstar work without the stupid singstar mics? I read that you should use an Ipod as a mic but I'm not sure. Do the mics in the controllers themselves work?

    Thanks in advance for the help people. I really do appreciate it

    You can use a phone (or an iPod) in conjunction with the Singstar app so no need for a proper microphone.

    When looking for a game in the Playstation Store on PS4 is there nowhere I can type in the name of the game to search for? All I can see is the ability to select a letter, but that just shows a few titles then you have to scroll the entire alphabet to get to the rest. I have to be missing something obvious?

    Select first letter then press right to get next letter and so on


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,819 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Yeah it's crazy you can't just search by typing in a name Since you can do it fine in the online store and through the app.

    Nice one thanks! After selecting the first letter I was pressing right straight away rather than scrolling up or down for the next letter.

    Yeah I was expecting a keyboard to appear once I clicked into the Search box, not an alphabet. :)

    I prefer to use the web store when searching for something.

    Is shovel knight out this week?

    Wednesday, highly recommend it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,433 ✭✭✭Josey Wales


    Anyone know if Shovel Knight will also be released on VITA this week? I'm more inclined to play that on that then on the PS4.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,721 ✭✭✭Otacon

    Found this website that lists all games that are discounted on the store
    https://psprices.com/region-ie/discounts?platform=PS4&sort=date


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


    DC has been €25 for Plus members for a good while now, at least a few months.

    Forgot about that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,437 ✭✭✭Crucifix


    Had Shadow of Mordor in my amazon cart for ~30 euro, but it's 25 on psn (with psplus discount) now, I think I'll go for it

    e: Whoops, that's the ps3 edition. Ps4 is 35, maybe I'll stick with Amazon so

    Got this awhile ago myself. Worth every cent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    I had Metal Slug 3 in my cart yesterday but it has since disappeared.

    Did anyone else see it on the store or am I going crazy?
