    I'm sick of Game now. You might have noticed that they upped ther price to have an even Euro price i.e. €60 instead of €57. The lamers of the game selling world. Smyths are the only place you can get vfm. So any suggestions on where to buy online?

    yeah www.play.com is good. i just bought GT3 for £16.99 stg.

    if you dont want to buy online, then xtravision is usually the cheapest with most new games retailing at €55

    For some reason I think he was talking about PC games, and unfortunately www.play247.com don't sell PC games.

    Yes foul console lovers. I buy my DVDs from play but I'm wondering about PC games not console. I can't explain it but I absolutely hate consoles.

    No idea i went looking for a shop like this a while ago and didnt find anything .
    I was about to use Gamesworld before but it went mental when i was paying .
    And when i was looking it was laziness and not the price that was making me do it .

    www.gameplay.co.uk seem to stock a very small selection. If you don't find what you want there, try www.softwarefirst.com, who are a pound or two more expensive, but have a much greater catalogue of games :)

    Just thought I'd bump this because www.play.com now stocks pc games. Wohoo - free delivery pc games at reasonable prices. Cya GAME you lamers.

    e.g. Jedi Knight 2 - £22.99ST = €36 = £28.99 (delivery included)
    And max price seems to hover at about £26.99Sterling which is no more then £35 good old punts.
