    Surely the other HMV branches will be the same :)

    Looks like it's between Tesco and HMV for me now.

    gonna go to the Tesco in Clarehall and if there's no luck there I'll go to the Gamestop across the way from it, Tesco were dodgy for midnight FIFA btw, they were supposed to be €40 but hadn't been updated at midnight and charged people €60 at the time even though people were showing them the advert for €40 on their smartphones. They were able to get a refund later but it's a lot of hassle. Hopefully they'll be on the ball with this one.

    Yeah I know. I was following the FIFA thread the night of the release laughing my ass off the chaos and numerous people paying over the odds :pac: I strolled in a 9ish am and picked up a copy with no fuss in the slightest.

    Will be doing the same on Tuesday morning as well.

    My brother tells me xtravision in Sligo have an offer on the window outside that says ''trade in ANY 2 games and get black ops free''.

    He must be going mad, surely it's not ANY 2 games?

    Pre-ordered the 360 hardened edition in XV yesterday (no other b'n'm around for miles) and had to put a deposit of €5 on it.
    On the receipt that the girl behind the counter gave me, it said outstanding balance of €118.45 :eek:

    I questioned her on it and she said that it was just some number that the system had in there to take pre-orders and that they had no idea of how the different versions were going to be priced yet, but it obviously wouldn't be that much.

    Some shock to the system initially though.

    don't be worried i put a 5euro deposit down on the Halo Legendery Eddition and the receipt said the balance was 995.00:D

    Any chance you could tell us what the code is?

    Ive a Smyths very close to me, was planning on heading down for the midnight opening.

    I got MW2 at midnight in Smyths last year, I popped down at 12.10 and there was nobody else there, so in total it took me 5mins from leaving my house to putting MW2 in my xbox.

    pre-ordered with Harvey Norman in Rathfarnham. i never got that call back from the Tescos rep about the pricing so its status is still 'UNKNOWN'.

    list on the first page should be right, if its off just let me know and ill update it

    hey all

    did some pricing with Black Ops with retailers (Xbox and PS3)
    (bricks and mortar only)

    Smyths - 54.99 €46.99

    Xtra-Vision - between 49.99 and 54.99

    HMV - between 45 and 49 euro UPDATED - €52.99
    UPDATED €47

    Game - no confirmed price, he reckoned 54.99

    Gamestop - 54.99

    Harvey Norman - unconfirmed €44.00

    Tesco - only rumors so far, 40.00, but wont have it on launch (UK pricing in the UK is £39.90, so i cant imagine a €40 price, maybe €44-€48, still no information on stock on release date) UPDATED €43.95



    if anyone has anything to add or update feel free to

    Its between Harvey Normans and Tescos at the moment i reckon

    cant edit the first post so here it is updated

    I got the same text message from smyths with the same code.
    I suppose 45.99 isnt a bad price and the one in Airside Swords is open at midnight.
    If anyone would like the message texted to their phone just drop me your number in a PM.:)

    Would it be worth going to a gamestop launch event? Like apart from getting the game as early as possible obviously. Get any free crap at these things?
