    I heard there's a few launch titles on sale in HMV and Game Stop for as little as E25. Can anyone confirm if this is true and what games are they?

    Pretty sure I saw PilotWings in GAME for 25 euro. Prob a few others as well - maybe SSFIV. But yeah, seems to be a general trend in all the shops that the launch games are being discounted - maybe because no-one was buying them?:)

    Thanks for the replies. These kind of threads are always good for consumers.
    I think the reason SSFIV is so cheap is because every choose it as there launch game.

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056306974 Found this thread in the Bargain forums. Great prices if you anyone skipped them at the launch. I ordered Rayman and Shadow Wars myself. Great buy even if you are planning on buying a new game. Just trade them in at Game stop and 3 extra euro for a new game.

    Gamestop is better than Cex for trade ins for store credit, especially when trading in for pre-orders. I was offered €16 for Ghost Recon in Cex, got €33.75 credit against pre-order for Zelda 3d.

    Hmm that's worth a look alright. The offering pre-orders on Metal Gear solid yet?

    They are offering pre-orders on all games from E3. I asked to pre-order Resident Evil. Was asked which one even though Revelations isn't out until next year.

    Dead or Alive is being sold for about E33 in Game Stop. I strongly advise getting this game. Easily makes the top three best 3DS games so far.

    It is now on sale in GAME for €24.99 and other than Zelda is the premium game for the 3DS.
