Fallout 3:Special Edition on Xbox 360 36.99 in Game in Dublin. That's the one with the little statue of the Brotherhood thing, not the one with the lunchbox and the Fallout Boy bobblehead.

They have the normal edition 2nd hand for 39.99 for those who like dirty discs too

Have bought a regular game form Gamestation, so they do deliver to Ireland. Whether that includes bulky items, I can't say.

566 0610 (I think), I just put it into the stock checker in store and it was €19.99 Could have be in that store only as they had 15 copies in stock and wanted to shift them, most of the other stores I checked were around 0-5 copies left.

HMV in Newry have most of their new PS3 titles at £34.99, only €36.00 at the current rate. Hard to pass when some of them are still €69.00 here.
