    Doh! Never thought of that

    Yeah. I traded Homefront for preorder on Uncharted 3, which will leave me with €1.25 change (U3 listed as €55). All in means I will have paid €1.75 for Homefront - and at that price that makes it an anti-bargain alert.:)

    Aliens vs Predator (PC) - €4.95

    http://www.greenmangaming.com/games/aliens-vs-predator/


    They send you the code and you register it with Steam.

    If you had bought Defcon with them you can trade it in for €1, so i got the game for €3.95.

    I know it is not a great game but worth it that price.

    Play.com have it for a similar price of €4.99 delivered if you prefer the box copy.

    Best thing is I bought this in hmv a month ago and never opened it for 35 euro and I still have the receipt lol consider it RETURNED LOL


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,561 ✭✭✭rickyjb


    +1 on the Zavvi deals, loads of games for EUR11.95 delivered to Ireland including Assassins Creed 2 GOTY edition plus 17.95 for demon's souls, 15.45 for tekken 6, RE5 Gold, FFXIII, I could go on....

    Unfortunately demons souls is currently taking up all of my ps3 time so it would be pointless to buy any more games at the moment:)

    Sale on at gamersgate http://www.gamersgate.com/5years

    Gamestop are giving Gears Of War 3 beta codes to anyone who registers on Gamestop.ie

    This'll get you in on the 2nd week of the 4 week beta (25th April-May 15th). The last 2 weeks are public beta. By getting in a week early, you'll be able to unlock the flaming Lancer for use in the retail copy of GOW3 (and the rest of the beta), which can only be unlocked during that exclusive week.

    (That extra week will also make it a hell of a lot easier to unlock Thrashball Cole and the gold-plated retro Lancer in GOW3)

    Do you know if people already registered will get beta too?

    No idea. GS replied on Facebook, saying codes will be emailed out. I THINK they were referring to existing members, but... that'd be a lot of codes to get a hold of, so I wouldn't set my hopes too high. Still, if you wanted one badly, they'd probably sort you out if you emailed them. But wait and see what happens first :D

    Everyone has a 2nd email account for signing up for stuff like this these days , no way the code will be tied to an email addy.


    1 code for Mr Master Chief from Blood Gulch Dublin 8 please :D

    23squid for reach in hmv

    I was in HMV today, and they have double packs of Crackdown/Mass Effect and Halo 3/Fable 2 for about €15. The Mass Effect copy comes with the two DLCs, not sure about the other games.

    Also, regarding Gamestop and the GOW3 beta, I was in a store today and they had 50-100 beta code cards on the counter, so I'd imagine everyone registered on the Gamestop site will get a code


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭Healium


    Actually, Gamestop have said on their Facebook page that only new registrants will get a Gears Of War 3 beta code, but email them at hello@gamestop.ie and tell them you reposted their offer, and you'll get a code

    I did see that the other day, but when I went to post it, i couldn't remember what was in the double packs. Seems rather good value to me.

    Game are doing a 3 for 2 deal on some used games. I was able to find a few games that were involved in the Gamestop deal such as fallout 3, fable 2 and velvet assassin which cost me €21.

    Traded them in ( 2 Xbox, 1 PS3) no problem for Crysis 2 on PS3 for €3.

    Hope this helps.

    So it cost you 24 euros for crysis 2, did you do it all in one go in the same shop? Very clever...
