FM06 Price Comparison

MrJoeSoap

Okay folks!

Seeing as the game is out Friday (usually can be bought on the Thursday evening though), I thought it might be a good idea to post where you got it and how much you paid for it.

I remember last year getting it €10 cheaper in Virgin than it was in Game (in the Blanchardstown Centre), even though the shops are directly across from each other!

Hopefully it'll help people save a few quid, that money could be important in buying the GF a present to make up for spending all your time with the new purchase. Or perhaps it might be useful when you take "one too many" days off work to be at home with the "beloved".

Oh, and happy gaming!

Im gonna head down to the Blanch Centre tomorrow and see what places are selling it. Hopefully I can convince someone to sell it to me and if not try and convince em to sell me Pro Evo 5

MrJoeSoap

I got it on the Thursday evening last year in Virgin, Blanch. It was out in Game too. I think they just put it on the shelf on the Thursday anyway to save them the effort on the Friday morning.

Might see ya there then

MrJoeSoap

I'll be the one legging it through the shopping centre, pushing old ladys out of the way.

Haven't a clue mate, sorry. I'd imagine HMV/Virgin/Game/PC World would have it on Friday morning and probably even Thursday evening. Not too sure about GameStop or Smyths though tbh.

eamoss

SIgames are sending it to me in the post. Did research for it!

Good call, I forgot about that extra discount

TheDoc

Whats the main new differences in the game, I read the game feautres on their website and nothing special to be honest. The new player interaction function sounds good but could make the game very messy and too detailed. I might wait for a while for prices to drop or "internet" versions to appear.

Anwyays I'm enjoying 2005 too much to just stop and I doubt there is much player transfers etc etc. Well I'll wait till you all have it the nget some views on it.

Talisman

I pre-ordered it from play.com at the start of August and I received notification that it was posted on Tuesday.

I got it the exact same way, except when I went into World Pay, I changed the currency to euro and got it for €29.60.

MrJoeSoap

For anyone buying in shops:

Game: €54.99
Virgin: €49.99
Smyths: €49.99 but €44.99 with their "Loyalty Card" (which is free).

Zapp Brannigan

They all had it on the shelves? Damn it!! OH well I'll pick it up tomorrow, or will I buy PES5? Hmmmm

Trotter

Whats better about FM6 that would make you want to spend 40 quid on it? I have FM5 and Im getting a bit sick of it now, is there anything in FM6 that can re-addict me?!

Töpher

Free legitimate copy for research heading this way too. However I shall be checking it out prior to arrival, as I cannot wait!
