The lad I was talking to said they had no bother with the hdd been changed once the warranty sticker was intact but that they would check for the original drive been put back. So I don't think any amount of smiling would get by him lol. Infai rness to him he went through it all with me I didn't have to ask him. He even said he'd swap the controller if there was any ware and tear on mine for the one in the box. He knew all about the deal so I'd say he would stick to that.

Any 500gb hdd should be grand I reckon. The capacity of the drive needs to match what the serial scans into the system as.

Is there a list of trade in games for the Pro Offer ? where do i find it ?

There is no definitive list. Any game that scans at the till will be accepted.

Games like fifa15 don't scan so just bring in a couple extra. You can even buy one in store and trade it in at the counter.

There is a single player campaign in GT Sport.

I thought it was ridiculously short and not even a "campaign" in the traditional GT sense though with the game still being essentially online multiplayer?

I don't own the game btw but have come close to pulling the trigger several times only for the fact that all I want is a casual sim/arcade game I can pick up and put down as I please and I keep being told this isn't it.

It was originally very short but they've brought out a number of (free) updates to boost it up. Well worth it at the sale price.  I'd be surprised if they weren't more updates in the coming months too.

I'm sure it would and sure enough I can't find a single 500Gb here I have 250gb up to 4tb must have put the original 500gb in a laptop or something typical.

Dont wipe the ps4 before you bring it in. Its much quicker for them to verify its working and they'll wipe it for you.

Bah, I nipped home at lunchtime to grab the console and swing by CEX for a couple of games, wiped it there. Dropping over to tallaght after work to upgrade.

Grabbed a copy each of DA Inquisition and COD Infinite Warfare as they both have recycle prices on the Gamestop website, hopefully they'll do.

I don't own the game either but I've heard they've added lots of single player content since launch.

Guys who've done this: I have the console, power lead, controller, HDMY cable and my 2 games. Do I need the console box or anything or is it OK as is?

You need a micro usb cable for the pad. No box is required.

Not sure about the box, I had mine in the attic, but I think you need a charger cable for your controller as well.

Grand, have a few spares in the desk here. Cheers!

Anything I see still seems to suggest the single player is still just a bit of a shallow add-on though?

Personally, I just want something like Forza 3 on the 360 with a deep campaign/career mode that you can progress in. I just don't have much interest in proper multiplayer driving sims so Driveclub seems to be generally recommended even with it being much older.

I flogged my old pro box on Adverts for €20 when I got the upgrade to the GOW pro. GS said they didn't need it.

This is a free version which allows use of most game modes, including online play. However, only a limited number of playable characters are available, and Story Mode is locked. Other characters and Story Mode are available as separate downloadable content purchases.

If you're trading in somewhere like CEX or selling online the box would generally add a few bob to the value of the console. Can't imagine it's 20+ but might be worth that to someone. I've bought phone boxes off ebay for a tenner which let me add 20-30 to the resale value of a phone in the past.

Pulled the trigger on Batman Arkham Knight Premium Edition, Dishonored Collection and Everybody's Golf for €55 last night. Great bargains.

In anticipation of my new pro I grabbed Shadow of the Colossus, The Last Guardian, and Horizon Zero Dawn complete edition, again €55 total. Looking forward to getting stuck in!
