    That will drop, it's €69.99 on PSN or will be for the PS4 version. If it gets average reviews the price will drop quickly on Amazon, always happens.

    The €85 will be a placeholder price. I'd imagine €65 is more realistic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,656 ✭✭✭C14N


    It's £47 on Amazon, which translates to around €60.

    ie.wowhd.com/games/watch-dogs-playstation-4/dp/35179041/65176031
    €51 with free postage but you won't get it on release day, just few days later.

    Anyone know what this crowd is like for delivery? I found mixed review for them on this site.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11 diodaq


    I've ordered twice on thi site. First time i got the game 4 days after release date but second time i've preordered Tomb Raider and on release date they sent me email taht they didn't have enough copies of the game in stock so i need to wait for restocking. It took almost 3 weeks!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 240 ✭✭daviddunne1992

    Just looking on there US store there, its $59.99, works out at about €45.

    I have ana American account so is it just a case of buying a US code for store credit or can I just use my visa debit card to buy directly from the american PS store?

    You can do either - both get you the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,854 ✭✭✭lertsnim


    Not all Visa Debit cards work sadly. Mine from AIB doesn't anyway but Amazon accepts it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,070 ✭✭✭MarkY91

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


    65 in symths, or possibly 62 in argos.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    If you ordered it yesterday on Amazon with delivery via Parcel Motel to Belfast you would have had it on Tuesday but it's too late now. UK orders went out today as far as I know.

    Oh I meant 70 euro, didn't realise I wrote 60.


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


    All copies of the PS4 version have the extra 60 minutes I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 790 ✭✭✭DUBLINHITMAN

    Gamestop can suck a bag of d1cks!!!

    I'll happily wait for an overseas delivery to ensure the robbing feckers don't get my business.

    I keep buying games in gamestop, mainly because im usually trading in as well. They give an extra 10% for trading in when pre booking

    But Im losing this with the extra €5 or €10 they lob onto every new release. I really need to stop supporting them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 radve


    Smyths has pretty good deal where you can swap 2 used games to Watch Dogs with 99 cents. I think it had almost every PS4 game exluding Killzone and Angry Birds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 747 ✭✭✭Messi19


    Anybody get a price from tesco?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 721 ✭✭✭Pixelbastardo


    Downloading now. 43e from US psn, its the only way to go when they charging 70e at the store. The downside is that its digital copy so it cant be traded later, But even if you bought at retail for 70e with the thought of trading it in for something else in a month or two, you'd be lucky to get 30 euro for the trade in value. So buying it from the US store for 43e is no different from buying it for 70e at retail, playing it for afew months and trading it in for 30e. Except buying US, you basically get the 30e trade in value immediately and get to keep the game =P

    How did you manage to get it from the US store can I ask?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,854 ✭✭✭lertsnim


    Create a US account and buy from it using PSN credit purchased online is how I imagine most would do it. Others can use their debit/credit cards

    Like lertsnim said.
    Then buy psn cards from here using your normal amazon account,
    http://www.amazon.com/20-PlayStation-Store-Gift-Card/dp/B004RMK4BC

    You need to make up some fake US billing address to buy from amazon.com too, pick a state with no tax if you do.

    I'm finished with them after today. Absolute scandal charging €75. Only reason I got it was because I had pre-ordered with trade-ins last year. Amazon next time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 174 ✭✭BobLeeSwagger


    I just can't get over how expensive Watchdogs is in Gamestop. I've ordered mine through Asda. £44 which is working out at €54 on my card. I cant justify spending €20 more than I need to.


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


    Its worth pointing out in relation to watchdogs I actually ended up getting it from gamestop since I did the trade in deal, and I mentioned the high price tag to the guy, who said as a way of compensation, if you had a gamestop loyalty card trading into towards watch dogs till friday, your trade ins would be worth 50% more. So €50 would be €75, etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 866 ✭✭✭LuckyFinigan


    Traded in two games and got it for €3 in xtravision along with a €5 gift card, pretty happy with that.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,463 ✭✭✭shinzon


    I to think 75 euro is scandalous but I have a level 3 loyalty card with Gamestop and was able to get the game for nothing with trade ins and the season pass for just 1.50, with the loyalty card because of the 50% extra credit given with the level 3 card

    If you want to get a loyalty card there giving them away free with xbox live 3 month and 12 month subs at the moment

    Shin


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


    That loyalty card is excellent, I'd recommend it to everyone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,854 ✭✭✭lertsnim


    I wouldn't be able to bring myself to buying games in GameStop


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,592 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Don't know why everybody isn't buying through US PSN store using Amazon digital codes. €40 for all new releases, can't go wrong...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 LimeTimee


    Don't know why everybody isn't buying through US PSN store using Amazon digital codes. €40 for all new releases, can't go wrong...

    But you can't trade in. I buy the game for €55 off amazon then usually sell it to someone who on done deal or adverts. I usually get €35-40 after the game is 2 weeks old. That means I only spent €15 on the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,608 ✭✭✭irish_stevo815


    So finally decide to purchase from the US Ps4 store. Decided to buy a $10 and $50 digital code off Amazon. The $10 one went through immediately but the $50 one could take up to 4 hours :-(

    Wanted to have it downloaded tonight and ready to go in the morning. Oh well

    Better off buying from vgp 46 euro shipped for new releases takes just over a week to receive them usually, and you can sell the game after

    Guess it comes down to instant access vs resale value. I keep all my games, so prefer to play them on release day!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,029 ✭✭✭um7y1h83ge06nx


    I picked up Wolfenstein on Play Asia for 40.07 two days ago.

    No way would I give Gamestop the money they are looking for for games.

    True. I don't trade in and like to go back to games from time to time.

    I saved €35 buying Watch Dogs that way so not much different to trading in really and more importantly I still keep the game
