Where are you getting MW2?

Onearmedbandit

With a week and a bit to go to the official release I was wondering where everyone was planning on buying MW2? Anyone know of any bargain alerts or planned bundled goodies can let us know.

I am planning to pick mine up in the local xtravision they are doing a midnight opening AFAIK but if Tesco do the same as they did with FIFA I might be camping out there.

Doomofman

I reckon I'll be picking mine up from Gamestop in Stephens green as it's on my way to college.. I actually plan on pre ordering it tomorrow.. Wont be picking it up at midnight though...

I've bought every iteration of Call of Duty since 2003 but with the antics of Activision/IW I wont be giving the thieving feckers my money this year.

Just my 2 cents.

Going to Tesco at midnight .

Landoflemon

I'm waiting for my brother to pick up on the hints and get it for me. Any good tactics?

Head to Tesco methinks. There was a lot more general anticipation around for GTA4, and there was no trouble with the no of copies as such.

Bright and early to Tescos on the 10th.

Doomofman

Preordered mine in Gamestop in Stephens green today...

CD Wow €29.99 was the best I could find.

How long ago was that though.
Im getting mine (unless i get a better deal) for 47.99 off CD Wow


Can anyone tell me how long it took cdwow to deliver uncharted 2?

Onearmedbandit

Does anyone know whether Tesco is selling MW2 for €30 like they did with FIFA?

If they are im there.

Antigone05

Sounds great

Kromdar

launch party thing on in game - dawson street at 12am... anyone else goin?

LD 50

I'll be getting mine at the place with the cheapest price.

screw2loose

So i decided to have a look around the online sites and see which ones offer the best deal. So heres what i found

CD WOW: £44.99 ~ €50
Gamesnash: €59.99
Zavvi: £44.95 ~ €50
Play.com: €58.49
gamestation: £44.99 ~ €50 (includes courier delivery ordered before the 8th)
Videogames plus: $59.99 CDN + $7.49CDN P&P ~ €42
the Hut: £44.73 ~ €50

So it would seem the best bet would be videogamesplus if your not too pushed on getting it on release day....

Thor

getting the modern warfare 2 xbox 360 console in game dundrum. should be 299 as that is the price at smiths.

johnny_adidas

bush

Doomofman

Gamestop had it listed as €65 when I preordered mine but the guy was saying he was hoping that might come down before release

Dcully

Yes that was 6 October, I see it's gone up now. I knew I was going to buy it anyway so cheap pre-order made sense.

Most Tesco are 24hrs so i don't think the one that aren't will open.

Onearmedbandit

Just rang the local xtravision there, the guy said he couldn't give me a definite price until the day before launch but he reckons it will be €60.

Xtravision also have a list of midnight openings on their site if anyone wants to check.

Btw I dont work for them even though it sounds like I do.

Anyone do a quick text dump of these midnight opening sites and post them up, as xtravision is blocked at my workplace here

I am definitely buying on that new Irish website

http://www.bestnightin.com/Games/Call-of-Duty-Modern-Warfare-2-PS3/MW2PS3/product.htm

They were running a promotion of 5 euro off any dvd and 10 euro off any game when you sign up an account (Not even purchase!) but that was last week so I would hurry.

Check that user Eoinzzz's profile and you will see that all his posts are about how remarkably cheap that website is. It's also not an Irish website, they are based in the UK. Beware!

I booked my copy with the local xtravision last week, they told me the price they have been given up to now is €49.99 for the standard edition

Interesting.. Might call in there tomorrow and have a chat with the nice people. Time to bake some mini muffins!!!

Anywhozille, anyone know what the best place is to trade in games against it? However if the 49.99 in xtravision is true i may not bother trading in...

Gummy Panda

I ordered mine from Gamesnash with next day delivery.

I remember when i queued for a midnight GTA release and someone in front of me pulled out bout 4 or 5 games to trade, then proceeded to argue the values given and just paid for it in the end. no one in the queue was too happy with him :mad:

cant say at the moment just a mate working in a shop thats got in already there are people on it that have clocked up 2 days of online play and prestige already

Afternoon lads,

My mate works in Xtra vision. He said that they have 24,000 copies on PS3 and XBox 360 for release day.Out of the 48,000 copies, 18,000 are pre booked. So they have 30,000 on general sale nationwide. They have no definitive selling price. The RRP is 54.99. But he reckons it will be 50 quid. As someone else stated they are doing midnight openings in 95 of their stores.

Ps. He also told me that Tesco will be selling it for €35 but will have lmited stock.

Official RRP is €64.99 but there's some heavy discounting and indeed loss leading going on with the likes of Tesco.

According to IW its all getting reset come launch so those with prestige just wasted a few days
