Cheers for that one. The sequel got slated, but I loved it on the Xbox, time to give it another go.

I got introduced to the series on the PS2 with Invisible War. Loved it not even having played the first one. Second one is a good game, but placed next to the first one, it just simply doesn't stand up to it. If you have some problems getting it set up, give us a shout or have a look over in the Steam forums.

Alan Wake is now £20 in most places... Not sure who else offers free shipping to Ireland, so Amazon is the only one I can recommend (you'll have to bump your order up to £25 for free shipping)

Beatles Rock Band Limited Edition
€58.99 in HMV stores, RRP€209.99, currently £115 on amazon.co.uk and €200 on play.com.

Full game with instruments: wireless drum set and pedal, wireless replica bass guitar controller, wired mic and stand.

I may have got the last Wii pack in Henry St. Dublin (for €8.99 thanks to my €50 voucher that was about to expire!) but they definitely had some X-Box packs left. No PS3 packs left (in that store).
