    I suppose for lads looking to pay off some money on amazon you could buy yourself some gift vouchers and apply them to your account that way taking down the cost against your credit card when it comes to pay for it.
    As for the Amazon bundles, hope they offer just the extra controller/ Camera!

    I'm just loading money onto my credit card every few weeks. First time in my life I've had money in it.

    There's a lot of credit cards going to take some hit especially with all these bundles coming out!

    Are Smyths charging €499 for the Killzone Bundle with the extra controller and the camera, because if they are charging €449 for the other bundles it is only saving you about 10-15 quid.

    €440 for Watchdogs bundle in Gamestop according to the manger I was speaking to on Saturday.

    Not much of a saving if any, if it its €449.

    The mega bundle is the same €499. It seems to be the best value but I don't really want the camera or Killzone.
    My preferred games at launch with be COD Ghosts and Watchdogs. I've Ghost pre ordered already so the Watchdogs bundle really appeals to me.

    They never guaranteed you would get it before Christmas, people still have not got estimated shipping dates. You are not guaranteed a launch one if you ordered after the 8th of August, so if you are ordering now you are two months behind other customers.

    Amazon are actually charging 475 euro for the basic console now, might be a sign that the stock is getting scarce.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8 gamer31


    just pricing a 12gig ps3 there for a friend and it's €177 in Argos, but in Smyths its a whopping 229? Makes me worried about what Symths are going to charge on the PS4!
    Also I've a funny feeling stock is going to be limited on launch due to demand being greater then supply and with the influx of 360 users jumping ship! If demand is great in US/Japan Europe might get pushed out until next year like they did with PS3.

    That will be for a 12gb ps3 bundle sony them selfs droped the price to €200 for that console on its own.....

    Have a look here, still £402.25, been that way since last night, so doubt it is a typo http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-PlayStation-4-PS4/dp/B00BE4HOIM/ref=sr_tr_sr_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1381097105&sr=8-1&keywords=ps4

    They are also stating now that

    Due to high demand, orders placed for this PlayStation 4 from August 7 may be received after release date - we will dispatch orders as soon as we receive sufficient stock.

    Orders placed up to and including August 6 will be dispatched to meet the release date.

    I was in my local gamestop today after a straight answer from the horses mouth so to speak. I was told .....that they had no knowledge as of now about any bundles apart from the killzone one. His info on this was limited too. He had no definite price only his ball park own estimate and also was unsure as to how the bundle would be distributed. He said he didn't think there would be a midnight launch either for various reasons.

    Is this one of the stores that is not using lists also, I know they run the stores as a franchise and some do things differently, but surely they should all get the same info at the same time, the manager of mine knew all the details and prices off the top of his head yesterday.

    Don't know to be honest. He seemed fairly legit with what he was saying, basically he didn't have much info. Not sure I want killzone either way.
