    Just a thread to help people going somewhere only to find it's not available there.

    Dublin : Finglas
    Tesco's Clearwater are sold out of the Xbox version, some PS3 ones left. Expecting a few more in later today, won't have any 'til Saturday then (both formats). Selling at 39.99 for today only, mind!

    Game in Dundrum are sold out and Tesco appear to be also (although I didn't ask). Virgin Dundrum still have copies for the PS3 anyway and I think they have copies for the Xbox

    With relation to Game in Dundrum, they have loads of copies on the shelves but when you go up to the counter they tell you they are sold out

    Did the Tesco folk tell you it's only today ? The ad in this morning's Herald states the 39.99 offer is valid until 6th May -

    apparently you cant get it in any of the usual spots in town without pre-order or at all (game, hmv, gamestop, golden discs, smyths).

    Well this is what my ps3 owning mate has told me after a mad dash to try and get it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,179 ✭✭✭RichTea


    So nowhere in town will have it left for the 360 at the moment?

    Any idea when they'll have it again?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,130 ✭✭✭ussjtrunks

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Tesco Limerick : Both Arthur's Quay and Crescent SC are sold out.

    Try Tesco in the Coonagh Cross shopping centre. Picked it up there last night and there were more copies than people waiting to get it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    For Clairehall in Dublin, Tesco seem to be sold out and Gamestop only have pre-orders, I think. Lucky I pre-ordered :D

    For those near the city centre, try Celtward (not sure if that's the spelling) on the quays. They always have all the games and accessories that sell out everywhere else.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 534 ✭✭✭jimmay


    I phoned around at half 7 this morning...SOLD OUT

    ClareHall had 40 copies...gone
    Artaine...25 copies at midnight...gone
    Clearwater...girl said were being sold at 8am but already big line...

    A marketing scam imo virtually impossible to get. :mad:

    Me: Oh yes I'm selling ferraris for €100.
    Customer: I'll take one please.
    Me: Sorry I don't have any

    :mad:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,840 ✭✭✭Trev M

    but are they selling them to people without pre-orders, the shops in town have 100s of copies too but arent giving any of them away to people without a pre-order.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 garbar


    how much is it in hmv


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,905 ✭✭✭bucks73


    Anyone been out to Tesco Coonagh in Limerick to see if they have any? I was going to head there after work seeing as the Crescents supply is now gone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 601 ✭✭✭mgsrocks


    Tesco clarehall are not sold out, don't know why they tell people over the phone that they are. I just got a copy there, there not on the shelfs, you have to go to the electronics desk at the back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,974 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    Anyone know if any Tesco in Dublin has it in stock for the PS3?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,213 ✭✭✭✭therecklessone


    Argos in Drogheda had four PS3 versions in stock (unreserved) when I was there a little after 10am. Harvey Norman beside it had a good few of both format, and the special edition boxset.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 garbar

    I hadn't heard that. I just read my receipt it said something along the lines of "first day discount -E20.00", or that.

    Heard there's a good few in both the Finglas & Phibsboro XtraVisions, too!
