    If you are a pro subscriber you can also use a €10 off voucher and get it all for €50 I think.

    Edit: the voucher is not valid for pre orders so you could wait until it's out on the 10th and then try.

    From the website:
    How to get Stadia Premiere Edition if you buy on or after December 10 (while supplies last)
    If you’d rather wait until the game comes out, just buy Cyberpunk 2077 for $59.99 USD (€59.99) in the Stadia store December 10 through December 17 (while supplies last), then follow steps 3-4 above. If you’re a Stadia Pro subscriber and this is your first purchase in the Stadia store, you can also save $10 on the game when you purchase Cyberpunk 2077 this way.

    Black Friday sale are now live. And there are some good ones. Picked up Jedi Fallen Order and PGA 2K for a combined total of €60. Jedi is incredible so far. One of the best openings to a game I've ever played.

    With the 2077 offer, it states that the game is playable on your PC. Is that a download copy? Or is it just streamed?

    Everything with Stadia is streamed.

    On your PC means through your browser. That's what I understand it to mean anyway.

    that is a shame, my broadband is nowhere near fast enough, but hope to have the NBI in a year. So this would be a long term investment :(

    There are no downloads, it's all streamed. There are pluses and minuses to this.
    The bad: you need decent Internet speeds to play (minimum 10mbs for 720p 30fps).
    All games are digital, some people have issues with ownership of games this way.
    The good: you buy a game, you play it immediately. No massive downloads, just click play like the old days.
    No updates. You're always playing the latest version in the cloud.
    Disk space is no longer an issue. All games are in the cloud so you don't need to delete a game to make space for your new one.

    If you're playing on pc it's through the Chrome Web browser. All you need is a Gmail account. Go to stadia.com now sure and try it for free for a month. See if it works.

    €60 gets you the game, a great controller and a chromecast ultra. Good deal. Pre-ordered.

    Edit: also, happy birthday Stadia.

    Am I right this offer is still valid for Ireland https://support.google.com/stadia/answer/10177658?hl=en-gb

    I see a banner at the top If you are contacting us regarding our recent YouTube Premium promotion, please note that we are out of supplies and the promotion has now ended.

    I think that is a different think and I am good to Pre-order the game to get the Premier Package? Although looks like not until later in the year/next year.

    The YouTube promo is over. The cyberpunk offer is a separate offer. So if you decide to order cyberpunk you will get an email within 10 days of the games release with a link telling you how to claim your offer. Likely you won't get it before Christmas. Although Google have been very quick sending these out in the past so who knows.

    But you can still play the game on your phone, android tablet or chrome browser while you wait at least.

    Bomberman is now free to play for everyone. No subscription or purchase required. Open chrome browser, login with your Google details and start playing with any controller you have nearby. It's great craic. Highly recommend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,225 ✭✭✭blockfighter


    Outcasters is now available for free for Pro members. Fun game. And a Stadia exclusive.

    Can't see any mention of why, but I'm not complaining :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,225 ✭✭✭blockfighter


    PGA 2K21 is €10. The second sale on this game in 2 weeks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 222 ✭✭copperspock

    Does anyone know if they're doing the same offer for Ireland?

    Yes I am on this offer as a Google One subscriber. Good thing too as I'd not have discovered Stadia at all without the trial. I find it excellent (I'm a very irregular gamer mind you), got the controller on Black Friday promo as well.

    I got an email Member benefit: 3-month Stadia Pro trial. No controller required

    I'm a member too but not received that offer - perhaps they're rolling the offer out in stages.

  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Still havnt got mine but only ordered in the 7th so I'd imagine I'm bottom of the que.

    Does the email come from google themselves or stadia?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,585 ✭✭✭redman


    Ah i got my email late last night , confirmed and then got email saying delivery by 15-16th ! that would be good if it happens! Tried playing on mobile screen last night but too awkward for me!

    I'm playing on my PC monitor and it's grand but I'd rather play on the telly so I can't wait to get mine eventually.

    Did your email come from stadia directly or Google?

    First email came from Stadia then you click a link to Google store and then confirmation emails from Google store


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,733 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Nice one cheers.

    Now I play the waiting game.

    I may contact them actually after a day or two as I never received any emails for stadia for any of my games purchases through the platform which is strange. Hopefully no issues anyway.

    If I only ordered yesterday, I probably shouldn't expect to receive the email for at least a few days correct?
