    If Cyberpunk sell out. They have a white one with 3 months gamepass ultimate for 279. Not bad deal.

    It's one month ... This is what I got , image is not correct but the text says one month. When you use it you can get another month free if you sign up for recurring payment ... Which you can cancel later anyway.

    the only thing stopping me pulling the plug on the one x is i have no idea how much the series X will be, i currently have 300 but aside for it.

    my thought process is

    buy the one x, sell my one s ( around 200) so i only pay 85 or so for the one x for a few months then trade that in against my series X

    someone tell me is this a stupid idea

    In a similar situation myself. For what it's worth my thought process is get the one X for 300ish. Games will look great on my 4k tv and a lot of new Xbox first party will still be available on the X for next year or 2. Probably a lot of 3rd party will be cross gen for a year or 2 as well.

    Then once they make the transition to games only on series X I hope the price will have come down and have a better library of games using the extra horsepower.

    I say go for it.

    Right now there are no active deals for the One S so it's a good time to sell. I made a profit on mine. Towards the end of the year I can see MS repeating the €99 One S deal to clear out stocks. Wouldn't want to be trying to sell one then.

    I'd say there will be a few back in Gamestop in the next short while for < 300.
    I've seen the robot white one x appear and disappear a few times over the past couple of weeks. Think MS will try to get rid of existing xbox stocks while they rebrand to series x. I am surprised Smyths haven't any on sale like this. Also, people who've bought today ... some will cancel/return their orders.

    Anyway, will give you more time to reflect if you REALLY want to upgrade now or wait :)

    The prices go up on 15th when sale ends. Also white is not limited edition like the Cyberpunk model. Dont think it will be back in stock, if anyone returns you maybe in luck if Gamestop puts them back up by 15th. Dont see it happening as return wont get processed till after weekend.

    It's 1 month game pass + 14 days live - at least that's what I got - and that's what it says in the description - but not on the image.

    People always talk you down on Adverts, someone yesterday didn't take my reservation so went in at half 6 and got it myself so a scalper wouldn't. I just want the money back if a true fan wants it.

    Yeah but it is still you scalping by getting 350/360 for it and then going with an offer over your asking price (which by the way is against site rules).

    Dont ask for scalpers to be reported when you are one yourself.

    Goodluck

    I originally accepted the 320 offer for my money back then someone else offered 360, I'm not a gobsh*te to turn it down. I'm hardly selling it for 450 like other twats. :rolleyes:

    Alright, that's enough. Back to the bargains, no more scalping talk. Cards will follow.

    Got an email from Gamestop yesterday evening to say my order has been cancelled and they will be refunding me. So disappointing. Ordered the white One X bundle on Thursday afternoon. Anyone know where to get one from now? Seems to be sold out in a lot of places.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,621 ✭✭✭Treppen


    319 in Argos!

    Didn't they do that a few years ago around the release date of the One X.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,699 ✭✭✭sniper_samurai

    They've done trade in deals on the One X a couple of times. I got my X for €100 in GameStop in 2018 when I traded in a base Xbox One and 2 games of their trade in list, that I paid €25 for in CEX.


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 Hyblaeus


    Typical I only see this deal now, honestly looked like a steal, especially the Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order bundle.

    Hopefully as the last day of the sale is tomorrow, there might be some stock that becomes available when shopping centers reopen.

    I got my original X for €90 back when it came out by trading in my S, some steal.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 482 ✭✭nintendoo


    I know it's on game pass ... but GameStop have Ori and the Will of the Wisps for a tenner if you like collecting physical games.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    A Cyberpunk Xbox just became available at Argos Rathfarnham Nutgrove in Dublin. Have reserved it for anyone here that wants it. Just drop me a PM and I'll send on the code.

    Edit: gone.

    Picked up Limbo for 2.50 and Inside for 6.59. Heard good things about both. Nabbed Sea of Solitude for 8 quid also - liked the look of it when it was first revealed

    Got Limbo/Inside dual pack and Mega Man 11 new in GameStop for a tenner each for my physical game kick. Think they are different kinds of platform games.:) Limbo/Inside supposed to be very special alright. Also, MM is 4K which is nice.

    Amazon Germany selling a lot of games for < 20 quid. Eg Witcher 3 complete, RDR2, Forza horizon 4, AC Odyssey , ... about 5 quid for delivery but you can split across games.

    AFAIK they all run on Irish region in English language .. but check first

    I'll just quote one of your posts.

    The Witcher 3, RDR2 and Forza Horizon are on Gamepass.
