    Is it black ps4 only? It doesnt say in the listing whether its black or white, though the picture is black but maybe you can ask for a white one, anyone tried?

    White is also available but for an extra 20 euros, costing 349.99 euros with witcher 3. Although if you're planning on buying the white one, i'd recommend getting the deal for 369.99 euros, which is the PS4 White with bloodborne and Witcher 3. Bloodborne effectively costing 20 euros!

    Finally got a copy, just reserve a copy and head to that store with your receipt of buying the PS4 they will check the deals and if all okay then you get the game that comes with the deal.

    But when you reserve the PS4, if the game is not in stock it is not part of the reservation and doesn't show up on the order either (I've reserved a system with no game today). Reckon I'll give the store a call to see what they will do. Cheers.

    My young lad got a ps4 out of his communion money yesterday. He wouldn't wait for witcher to come back in stock. The game wouldn't suit him anyway but it would be good for a trade in. Are you saying I could go back with the receipt (when back in stock) and get the game?

    Yes provided the console you have bought is linked with a special offer they will/should give you the game, once you be polite about it.

    1. Reserve the item
    2. Ring the store to confirm your intentions
    3. To into store, customer services
    4. With receipt explain, you bought console game was not in stock and where advised to come back to collect when in stock

    Side note I know the game is 18+ but I didn't think it would suit me but its a very good game!

    Yes, you can once it was part of the package you bought.

    You could trade it on the Playstation forum here or at a CEX store.

    From Their FAQ's "If an item you've reserved is on special offer on the day you collect it in store, this special offer should be offered to you by our in-store personnel when you pay for your items"


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,307 ✭✭✭dan786


    Have a code for PS4, Witcher 3 and Bloodborne for 369.99. PM me if someone wants it as I cant collect tomorrow. Nutgrove branch.

    Picked up this deal today, even tough the witcher is out of stock. They printed on the receipt that I can pick up the witcher when it comes back in. Great deal IMO, cheers OP.


  • Registered Users Posts: 547 ✭✭✭doctorg


    Anybody notice some frame drops on bloodborne?

    Did you just go in and order it?

    I just noticed I can't reserve online if one item is missing (at least not at the correct price!)

    Don't worry about reserving it. Adding it will cost €0 if it was in stock. They will know this in store and should do with you as the previous poster and just mark the receipt allowing you a free copy when it does come back into stock.

    Yup, went to the customer service desk and told them i couldn't reserve it, the woman put it through the system and it worked with no hassle! Just waiting for a copy of the witcher to come in now!

    What happens if they are never in stock again though?

    I mean, I guess Argos (unlike a game shop) will only restock a game so many times.

    Are they reserving you a copy for the enxt time it comes in or do you have to keep checking?

    Nope, she said it will be back in stock in the next week or 2. The witcher is only a new release so will definitely be back in stock. Got a 10 euro voucher btw...

    Only ilac, Jervis or the green were options for me sadly.

    New deal is crap. Spose if in wait long enough another decent one will be around.
