    Any details on this? Can't see anything on the Gamestop site and HN's site is useless as ever.

    Just saw the ad there, it's €179.99 but it's limited to a certain number per store, missed that number though sorry. No use to me as I got a new one last week :(

    They open at 8am tomorrow.

    I think that gamestop offer was €149 with 4 games if I remember the poster I saw in store correctly. Not sure what games they had to be but I'm sure they had to nearly new.

    I may pick one up... I think you get some games with it or some extra stuff, not 100% sure :)

    will be dropping down tomorrow to check it out

    What do you think the uptake on this will be like considwering they will only have 10 system on offer . Do you reckon the place will be swamped?

    If it's close to you, what have you to lose by going down early and queuing ??? A lie in maybe :D

    Think about it though, 179 with no games? If you were to pick up 2 new games like some of the elite bundles on offer at the moment at full price it would make this a more expensive purchase over all. Even if getting this to replace an existing one I'd still go for one of the deals with games elsewhere.

    If you bought it for 180, how much would GS give ya for it? Is there profit to be had?
