    I preordered it for €65 in stephens green. Not bad..... for a collectors edition. but i will be rightly p**sed off if they up the price on the day, i doubt they will though. I got told twice, over the phone, and in person that it was this price.

    65?! Wow thats much less than i thought it would be!. Now i just have to find somewhere that has it.

    They had it new on xbox & PS3 for €20 last time I was there.

    But I wouldn't buy it if I were you, it is just terribile on PS3, and in the end to get the updates on xbox, you'll be paying alot more than €20..

    Just get it on PC.. cheaper too.

    I got Resident Evil 5 in Sainsburys in Newry for £19.99. Still seems to be full price in any other shop I've seen it.

    That was for the Xbox but I think they had PS3 copies too.

    Sacred 2 for the 360 is £10 in Zavvi's Mega Monday deal. Linky


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 10,595 Mod ✭✭✭✭5uspect


    Don't know how good a deal this but COD:MW2 on the PC is €30.99 with free delivery on CDWOW. They also emailed me a €4 voucher this morning (which I've used sorry).
    I guess everyone who has bought from them recently got the same voucher.

    EDIT: it's now €27.99, bugger should have waited.
