If they're getting away with your TV you need a Wiimote. With a Wiimote you can crack the screen easy. Their loot is worthless and you're still insured.

Wiimotes cut through flatscreens like hot knives through butters! :pac:

Well, good times are here!
Just picked up Mass Effect 3, Driver, MW3 ( 360) and Starfox 64 for the 3DS for only 60 euro all together in PC World in Swords.
They have a massive stock and nearly everything is included, 20 for any game, 30 for two.
Brilliant!

Bad news for me, went back and bought two more games, Disneyland for the Kinect and Goldeneye Reloaded.
I was going to get Steel Diver, given that it is likely to be rare in years to come, but that is mainly because it isn't very good....

But, really lads and lassies, you could go into Currys/Pc World in Airside in Swords and buy Mario Kart 7, Mario 3D Land, Mario Tennis and Zelda OoT for €60! It's a no brainer.

The girl on the till said that other stores had been sending excess stock to them, so there's plenty of most things, no time limit as yet on the sale but as soon as stick levels drop I'd say it'll be over, so today's the day.
Not to mention come 5pm and people on the way home from work will probably nip in and buy some stuff, strike while the irons hot!

I shudder to think how much those games cost me when I bought them all on release!

Only one I dont have is Mario Tennis.

Picked up Spirit Camera myself yesterday. Couldn't resist giving it a go as it was going cheapish in HMV (35 I think it was).

Not impressed so far...

No, I was thinking of picking it up but the reviews have been poor, the use of the book and AR sounded interesting but the implementation and the gameplay is lacking, so no Spirit Camera for me.

The worry is that by not buying that sort of game we are dooming ourselves to 5 years + of minigame compilations and puppy/baby/cookery games, all be it in 3D!

If you bought 6 for 90, if you go back in with your receipt you should be able to avail of the 8 for 100 deal a la the original thread due to their price promise...

Two more games for a tenner if you head back...

I'll just leave that temptation there..............

Also did they have Mario Tennis in stock!? Was there Kid Icarus/either of the RE games there too?

CiDeRmAn

Didn't see Kid Icarus or RE, but then I wasn't looking for them.
They did have a good range though.
I saw Forza 4 and the like there, as well as Vita games, all in the deal.

No, I'm not heading back, I have more games than I'll finish this year now.
Heck, I still have several I got before last Christmas, LA Noire for example.
So, these will do just fine.
I started Goldeneye Reloaded, still great, I finished it on the Wii and it's worth playing through again in HD, a cracking game, a lovely update to the original.
If only they did this with Perfect Dark..
Good times to be a gamer, Super Bomberman 3 should be awaiting me at work soon and my Turbo Everdrive should be here next week!

Ring them!
Use the phone!
It's easy, find out if they have the stock.

TBH no one was buying games when I was in there, no one knew of the sale, no mention of it anywhere and, the staff said it themselves, no one thinks to buy games in PC World.

More fun for us!

Atavan-Halen

No, I deal with enough customers on the phone where I work asking for stock and it's super annoying so I don't want to end up like one of those! :P

HOLY TESTICLE TUESDAY! AWESOME GET!

Casey120

Game Library Series - FAMILY COMPUTER DVD is pretty awesome .
Gameplay from the best games on the Famicom is shown and some cheats are being demonstrated , the picture quality is really high .
Lots of games and just two interviews with some Japanese geezers that are unknown to me

but where probably very important in the Famicom era

Pyongyang

Yep that DVD is a beauty, must snag a copy one day! Its made by Enterbrain is it not?

But first, more Superplay DVD's and Laserdiscs! I've not bought any Laserdiscs in a while...

Congrats on the GET!

Casey120

Ps ,
My first order with www.eurotaku.com/
Found them by accident and very nice stuff and good prices .

Here's one that's been on my list for ages but I never got around to it. Good price from an Irish seller.
