    Where are most of you going to pick this up?

    Any bricks and Mortar price's?

    Will Argos or SuperValu be the cheapest?

    I heard SV had COD and Fifa cheap, will they do same with GTA?

    I searched about 4 SuperValu shops around me and couldnt find a copy of FIFA for the PS4, they were all sold out so its a risk if ya want it on day one.

    Smyths = €65 (online price, not sure if same in shop) - 1 mil preorder bonus
    Xtravision = €70 - No preorder bonus
    Gamestop = €75 - 1 mil preorder bonus

    Irish PSN store - 70 euro - 1 mil preorder bonus - extra 150k for GTA Online bonus when preordered

    US PSN store - If you follow some online guides, you can buy it for 48 euro but preorder bonus may not work and there may be problems transferring your existing GTA Online character.

    wowhd.com is where I normally get my games, they seem to have it cheaper than most places. I got GTA V on the PS3 for €39.98 a week after it was released


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,248 ✭✭✭Max Mafioso


    For anyone thats interested its €52.79 and free shipping

    I would say there will be a few bundle deals, I was having a look at some last night.
    Argos has a deal for the console and a game for something like €380 I think it was.
    I have asked Santa for a PS 4, if I get one, well and good, if not, no big deal but I am still not fond on the idea of paying an extra fee to be able to play games online :(

    I know my one had COD and Fifa recently, so I think I may go up there early on launch morning and see have they got it, failing that I'll possibly get it in Xtra/HMV....

    Amazon just emailed me to tell me my order has shipped, getting it sent by parcel motel so might have it on Monday evening.

    Not a chance!
    I ordered Fifa 15 2 days before the release date and didnt get until 2 weeks later, orders are sent out on a first come first served basis!

    Ahh feck it so, Smyths I'd say for me, unless SV have an offer on on the day.

    Anyone know did SV announce the COD deal before hand or just a spur the moment thing?

    I noticed that smyths stopped taking preorders on their site a couple of days ago. I should have ordered earlier. Will probably pick it up in argos with the €5 voucher offer.

    Apparently Supervalu are getting it but not at launch day

    Really? D'ya think they'll be sold out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,225 ✭✭✭Keith186


    Any good prices on trading in a 360 version to get PS4 one?

    Might upgrade if its only about 20 quid or so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,109 ✭✭✭Sarn


    It's available again for home delivery on Smyths (€64.99). No option for click and collect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,511 ✭✭✭Damo 2k9


    Wanted to pre order GTA on the PSN store today, so I could get the pre order bonus. Came home to learn PSN is down grr, hopefully I get time to pre order it tonight before 12 o clock.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,963 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Try buy it from the psn store website. You might be able to purchase it on the website and then download it when maintenance finishes, scheduled to finish at 11pm

    Is HMV grafton street doing a midnight release tonight?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,843 ✭✭✭Arciphel


    Well it seems like my old friends in the Royal Mail are still as poor as ever. Got an email from Amazon on Saturday saying it had been dispatched, tracking number on the Royal Mail site just says the following - "Status: It's on its way. Item arrived at National Distribution Centre on the 2014-11-15 and we are currently processing it." What a bunch of useless goons. Assuming it gets into my Parcel Motel tomorrow the earliest I will get it is tomorrow night ;-(

    Same issue, mine was dispatched and sent to the Royal Mail centre on Sunday morning, 16th.:o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,511 ✭✭✭Damo 2k9


    Got it sorted, plugged my ps4 in via wired instead of wireless and was able to sign into PSN.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,109 ✭✭✭Sarn


    €58.99 in argos. No preorder bonus but picking it up for €53.99 is worth it (using €5 coupon).

    How you get the coupon?

    Edit - according to Argos, most won't have it until Friday or Saturday, I dunno if I can wait that long....

    It's available now. When I placed my order it updated to today (at least in Stephens green in Dublin).

    But €50 of PSN credit or something else for €50 and you get a €5 coupon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,843 ✭✭✭Arciphel


    Royal mail says mine was delivered to parcel motel this morning at half five, but of course my parcel motel account shows nothing. Hopefully have it tonight ;-)

    €58 in Argos for the ps4 and xbox1 version lads. I had a €20 voucher, as well, so only €38. Happy days! €74.99 in gamestop...

    I got mine in argos and got the pre order bonus ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,830 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    any deals going if you have a previous version of it? im not paying for the same game twice

    Gamestop are giving a 25% trade in bonus if it's being used to buy GTA,AS Unity or far cry. Not necessiarly the deal you were asking for, but it's how you'll get a discount on it. I'm sure you'd still get 20 quid for the old version.

    but 25% bonus Max! Old ps3 games arent worth a feck but the neweish ones are still ok. I traded in 8 oldies today for a whopping 27 euro..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,248 ✭✭✭Max Mafioso


    Ah no I meant regular trade in, not the 25%, sorry.
    I worked with them for a long time and I do the odd bit for them around this time of the year too so i know some of the trade in prices.
    I'll tell you this, when the original owners were there up to a few years ago, it was a lot better.
