    Diablo Eternal Collection for £31. Seems to be the cheapest it's been for a while.

    Get Zelda asap it is the most wonderful horrible rewarding torturous experience on Switch it's great.

    Yep. Got that with it instantly. The main reason why I bought the Switch! Also picked up Mario Kart 8, Golf Story and Stardew Valley on sale. Should be enough to keep me going for a while!

    Enjoy!

    I had to rush to wholesalers after I posted, I forgot they closed at 2 today.

    I'm just sitting down to buy it now and I noticed that the Deluxe Edition is only a few pence more. I am logged into the South African store because I never changed my account back from the last time and the deluxe version is €2.90. I don't know what the difference is.

    - ‘Urban Trial Playground’ – stunts, tricks, crazy combos, time trials, over 50 levels to explore!

    - ‘Even MORE’ style pack DLC – which allows you to pimp your rider and his motorbike, to own the Californian streets with style! Grab 10 custom parts for motorbike and 22 new rider clothes!

    - ‘Challenges Pack’ DLC – style is one thing, but you need an opportunity to push yourself little harder and prove yourself that you are the Playa! So you’ll get additional 10 new levels, and 10 unique rewards for finishing new levels with MAXIMUM 5 star rating!

    Warp Shift is €1.99 - supposed to be decent. https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-Switch-download-software/Warp-Shift-1357406.html
    I am finding it very difficult to find any time to play the games between the time spent buying them..

    I think that is just a puzzle game. For anyone like me that doesn't know it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzOZ9ZQIfA4

    Gives me memories of kickstarter 2 on the C64. Graphics are a little better though!

    Gyro Boss DX is going very cheap at the moment (€1.12 - you can probably cover it with gold coins if you have any).

    Fun little game. You spin around in a fixed circle around the boss in the middle and avoid his attacks. It's challenge based (play 10 games, survive a certain attack, survive for 60 seconds etc.) so you always have a little carrot to keep you playing. Great game to play for 10 minutes if you want to play something quick.

    From the trailer, it looks like it has multiplayer too (but I haven't tried it yet). Looks like a great party game.

    Trials rising, which is meant to be better than Urban Trials, is 22 in Argos. Is it 20 quid better though? Who can say.....
    Good stock levels

    It is a better game alright but definitely not €20 better. It was down to €17.50 on the eShop the other week and I was tempted but glad I held off and got Urban Trials for €2.99 instead.

    Its also €20 in Smyths at the moment for the Gold Edition that includes the all the extra DLC. Plenty of stock around the country too.

    It's def worth the extra. Far better game. I'd go for it. Not on Switch though if you've the other consoles.

    Little Nightmares is 8$ on the US store. Better than the 45€ here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,870 ✭✭✭skerry


    Any thoughts on Hyper Light Drifter lads? On sale at the moment and was thinking of picking it up.

    I played this on the ps4 and throughly enjoyed it kind of like old school Zelda and the soundtrack is amazing. The art style is not for everyone though

    Its actually the art style that caught my eye in the first place. Might give it a go, checked out a few YouTube videos and I'm loving what I've heard of the soundtrack.

    Was just looking at that but it's says it doesn't ship to Ireland for some reason

    Not sure could it sell out but keep an eye on it; a few times I've noticed items that show that can change. Especially games.

    You could use AddressPal but I had that recently with another game. Went back the next day and it was available to deliver to Ireland.

    Edit: Astral Chain CE is up now as well and that will ship to Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 697 ✭✭✭kevin2me


    Sweet Preorder Astral Chain CE and Link SE now too, thanks Titan,
    They were up on Amazon.de 2 weeks ago can cancel them now too :) Free shipping.
    Cheaper than Gamestop too 89e vs 77e.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    With Prime Day coming, you might be able to get 10 quid off those CEs if you order now, then apply the credit if/when you take your Prime trial in July?
    Basically, if you're a prime member and you fancy saving some dosh, maybe order the CE from a new email address and take your chances :D
