    Haven't really watched many myself for exactly that reason...don't care how many they release though as they're completely avoidable.

    It's turning into the 'Terminator Genesis' of Gaming with it's promotion obsession.
    Why ruin the experience of any actual surprise with constant spoilers.

    Is the Red Hood Story Pack only with Gamestop or can I get it at a later date as DLC from Xbox store ?

    Its a Gamestop pre-order deal but will probably be released for all after a month or two.

    Yes, might be a while before it's available.

    So Zavvi are still offering the batmobile edition, hearing bad things about them cancelling pre-orders though - anyone have any experience good or bad with them?

    Never had a preorder cancelled from them before. Just to warn you though anything sent from Zavvi over €22 could be liable for VAT and import duty(if over €150) as everything is sent from the Channel Islands and not inside the EU.

    The game has broken the street date in some stores in the US, so be careful with spoilers.

    Any chance that could lead to Amazon posting it before launch date?

    Not a hope, but they do ship a day before launch for UK orders. Since using Parcel Motel and the Belfast address I get games the same night of their release date.

    Just realised this is out in just over a week. I have a feeling E3 will be flooded with videos, definitely need to avoid them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Wheres the cheapest best place to pick this up online , not fussy about getting it on release day either

    Bout €55 on Amazon at the minute on X1/PS4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Just pre-ordered of amazon cheers lads, Got none of that dlc bollix either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,609 ✭✭✭irish_stevo815


    Smyths has it for 59.99


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,529 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    I'd usually have an Arkham game preordered months before release but for this I'm gonna stroll into Argos/Smyths (right beside each other) on Launch day and cheapest one gets my money, couldn't care what bonus comes with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,536 ✭✭✭✭Varik


    Have the week off but I might wait for the sales/GOTY, enough games to play and only a few trophies off having a platinum on origins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,912 ✭✭✭SeantheMan


    Bought the PC Preorder today 22 euro

    (reason it's 22 euro on mine, was it's in Korean won...outside of euro you don't pay taxes....so maybe if you set up a proxy to have your addressed changed, and do it that way you can avoid the extra)
    Else it's maybe 30euro or so I think

    I also bought Shadow of Mordor from them when it was first released for 24 USD last year.

    Just note that when paying it may ask you to also pay for G2A shield (their secure pay system thingy) which is like 1 euro, but it sets it as a monthly subscription on your paypal. So be sure to cancel that

    I pressies ordered mine from Smyth's a few weeks back at 59.99..... Wasn't going to give GameStop my money when they had it fir 15 quid more


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    Argos will probably have it for 60 on launch.

    dont blame you €75 is past the tipping point. €69.99 is more than enough to be charging

    I'd want the season pass for what gamestop charge sometimes

    Anyone replaying Asylum or City?

    Might be of use to some... Gamestop are selling it for €9.99 with any 2 games on the list

    New super mario bros wii is there and it's €25 in CEX

    Provided gamestop will take 2 copies that's €50 + €9.99

    Tallaght has CEX upstairs and gamestop downstairs and has plenty of copies of mario in stock

    The Batmobile edition has been cancelled at the 11th hour.

    Also ALL retailer exclusive dlc will be included in the season pass when the exclusivity period expires in August/September.
