Zavvi's monday sale includes both 360 and PS3 versions of Resi 5 (Gold Edition - includes both DLCs) for 16.45 euros (plus...1.15 P&P) which is a great deal IMO

Popped around to Henry St, none there, boo.

(Still great to see HMV's pricing scheme: Just Cause 2 on XBox, €22; on PC, €39).

Ha, saw Just cause 2 for the PC there. The Limited Edition was priced at €39, while the regular version was priced at €50. Madness. I do remember when they tried to sell a Lost:Season 2 boxset for €100 two years after it's release.

I think I might have gotten the last one in Dundrum. Couldn't see any around. Could always ask to see if they have any in the back. Save yourself another trip, and give them a ring.

Been posted in the BA section too. If you hurry, you can get a free copy of Leon on Bluray too with the PS3 version. Someone over there also pointed that you can get Public Enemies on Bluray too with Mafia 2. I think both those BluRays are on special with a 2 for €30 offer. So if you buy the two games with the two free blurays you can get even more money off. Not sure myself if it will work though. Can't confirm it myself.

Mr Trade In

Sorry I meant to post it here too, forgot. The Leon Bluray offer maybe finished as it was just for preorders,worth a chance though as it is a great film.

I picked up demon's souls black phantom edition used in xtra vision today for 35 euro i think that a good deal

I dont know if this has been said yet but Xtravision messed up the pricing on Battlefield Bad Company 2 on Xbox. A used copy is E35 while a brand new copy is E34.99. I saw it about 2 months ago but as far as I know it's still the same prices now.

I'd recommend HMV and Game patrons to be extra vigilant as well, they have a disgusting habit of charging the same amount (or in some cases -- higher) for a 2nd hand copy than a new one. Scum. Sub-human scum.

Also I just remembered, I once bought Lost Odyssey on Xbox also in Xtravision for 15 quid while the used one was 22.99

As you say, the titles are cheaper on their European site than the one you linked to. Don't think people will be able to buy from the US site with an Irish credit card iirc:

Not sure if it's been mentioned but the xtravision sale is well worth checking out. Got myself Brutal Legend for 10 euro and Trauma Centre Second Opinion for 15. Plenty more there but none that interested me.

humanji

D2D are also doing some great 1 day only deals today you can get Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines for €9.95. Well worth it for a fantastic RPG.

Actually, the best thing about buying CoH on Steam is because of the autopatching (the disk version was horrendous to patch).

Dunno if its fixed but you had to download the entire game every time patch came out.

romperstomper

nope

rizzla

CoH is going free to play.

HxGH

I was in Waterford and called into the pawn shop down there.

Nearly every game was €7?

Picked up Brutal Legend... €7.

Great!
