    The 1% probably accounts for delisted games and other content like PT.

    Fist of the North Star is down to about 11 quid. Put a few hours into it last night, alot of fun. Just pure button bashing mayhem with some quality kills. Well worth it at that price.

    Yup, more Yakuza goodness mixed with some post apocalyptic ultra violence.

    Where is the best price to get a year or so of PS Plus? Need to stock up before the PS5 releases.

    Instant gaming is my go-to for this. Currently out of stock on plus, but you can get discounted psn credit from them to put towards the plus sub

    Thank you! Does buying the PSN credit work out cheaper?

    Eneba currently have stock for €48.50 plus fees. If you look you should be able to find a 3% discount code.

    Costs 44 quid for 50 quid credit. So save 12% there. Sub is 60 so effectively cost you 54 if you top up with 10 yourself. Or you could buy extra credit for buying psn games etc down the line, they sell 20s as well as 50s, will give better % saving

    Ohhhh that's an interesting couple of he's I've yet to play!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,048 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Just remember some are part of the Plus collection on PS5 if you're getting one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,309 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Yakuza Remastered collection is in Argos for 28 euro. 3 huge games for that is great value. I'd be picking it up if i wasn't selling my ps4 next week.

    Also, i don't play the wwe games and hear 2k20 was an absolute mess but Argos are selling 19 deluxe edition for 18 quid, was 80. That might get you a lot of content, might interest some.

    Are you trading your ps4 into gamestop /CEX or adverts? Was planning to trade into Gamestop but they only giving 200 for the Pro

    My friend is looking for a pro so selling it to him.

    You're sorted then. If only CEX didn't drop their prices. I'm probably going to just hold onto mine for a bit and see if Gamestop do another trade boost

    I see they are going for 250 on adverts and Facebook. I'm giving to my friend for less than that with mates rates, happy it's going to a good home and also not having to deal with yocky strangers.

    Saying that, would be no harm if you stuck an ad up just to see if anyone bites.

    See that's why I'm trying to avoid selling privately, you've no idea who you'll meet. My brother has level 3 with Gamestop so gonna check how much I'd get a trade in with that.

    You know that level 3 can give it a nice boost, worth trying.

    Speaking of, last time i was in GS about a month ago, they asked me if i wanted to upgrade to level 3. After saying i already was, they informed me that level 3 only lasts a year and then goes back to level 2. Absolute fukkery.

    Goodluck with getting rid.

    Yeah I've been level 2 twice over the years as I hardly spent money there at all and it always expires. Level 3 gives 10% so that would be 220 which I would be happy with. It would go towards the series X next year anyway or ps5 extra storage if they sell it

    €35 until the 7th with PS+ for those of us not interested in leaving the house. :pac:

    You missed out, the Pro had a boosted trade value of €250 for September. Got €287.50 for trading mine in on Monday with my level 4 card.

    Fallout has prepared me to gear up and head out into the wastelands for a 7 euro saving :)

    That collection is tempting to have it on the back burner for the PS5 though. The new Yakuza coming out doesn't sound too appealing to me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,776 ✭✭✭JimBurnley


    Gamestop trade list for October. The advertising of half price trading against new games is vs €70 games so you effectively get €35 credit for any on the list

    Still level 3 apparantly, and I haven't really bought anything from there in a long time. I'll be holding onto my PS4 until I get the 5, it's my main source of entertainment so can't be going without it. Midnight releases look doubtful according to the staff I spoke with, because Covid and people can't police themselves, so I can go in in the morning and trade in then. Give them an hour to test while I ate a hape of fry and pick up the PS5 then. I might lose out on a few quid, but it'll still be upwards of €200 I didn't factor into the cost of getting the PS5, so that's 2 more games at least.

    Edit: Can you still pay to move up a level with Gamestop? You used to. I signed up at Level 3 for €20 all those years ago iirc.

    Double Edit: You can go straight to Level 3 from nothing with the purchase of a years sub to Game Informer for €19.90 (don't think I've ever actually read it even though I get it every month).

    Good luck trying a trade in on launch day because many times I’ve been in on a launch they said it’s not possible as they’re constantly trying to get orders out during the day. I can’t see this being any different with the current situation
