    Gamestop.ie are having a Black Friday today.
    Not massive discounts but games, consoles and headsets are all marked down.
    Link here.

    Theres usually a full thread for this sale but it turns into an 'abuse gamestop' game thread. In fairness there are some crap deals there. Usually there might be one or 2 that you would actually buy but not gonna sit at my laptop all day waiting for it.

    As I said, they're not massive discounts.

    The one or 2 I saw are:

    Darkness 2 Limited Edition on ps3 and xbox is €14.
    White Dualshock 3 is €34.97

    They had that PSVita Need For Speed bundle for around 180 first thing this morning. Sold out fairly fast though.

    For those that are wanting Dishonored. Green Man Gaming are selling it for half price. You can also apply a 25% off code

    GMG25-G4VDR-0ZL4Q



    At the checkout for a further 25% off.


    I can't check the euro pricing right now since I'm in the UK so if anyone could let me know what it works out at. I got it for £11.25!!!

    NFS MW is 35 at the moment. Good price but the NFS games usually plummet in price after Christmas.

    If folk can pull themselves away from the current Steam sales...

    ARE YOU READY FOR THE SUPER SHOCK BUNDLE?

    There's some cracking games in there and should be well worth a punt.

    It could actually be even cheaper since Gamefly are also selling it at half price and you can get 20% off of it. Not sure again what the euro price is... use NOV20OFFUK at the checkout

    seems to be out of stock now? - did it sell out or has it not gone live yet?

    Yeah it sold out fairly fast, was up for a short while this morning, went down and came back up again for another short while so it might pop up again.

    Crysis Collection for €16.47

    Saints Row 3 Collection for €9.99

    Two good deals on Steam today.

    God I hate Steam.....kinda


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,578 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Looking at Amazon's deals. Not being a GTA player what would be the advice with regard getting the Max Payne 3 bundle at $19.99 and/or the GTA4/Episodes/GTA:SA/LA Noire complete bundle for $14.99?

    And as I don't do multiplayer, is the Max Payne 3 Season Pass even worth purchasing which would mean be as well to buy from Steam?

    The GTA bundle is insanely good value. Do you just not like GTA or have you never played it? If it's the latter then go for it. If it's the former you'd probably be wasting your money.

    I've never played Skyrim or any of The Elder Scrolls games (or many RPGs in general), but have heard great things about it. Is it a must-buy at €10 do you reckon?

    Yes. You will get massive playtime out of it if you like that kind of game. There's a really enjoyable playthrough on Youtube by a guy named talesoflumin. I suggest you watch a few of his vids to get a feel for it.

    2 great bundle deals for strategy fans

    Paradox Majesty Franchise $9.99

    Plentiful Paradox Package $9.99

    It's a must buy for that price. I don't think it's been cheaper.

    Never really got into it last time I played a GTA.
    Ah sure, may as well get both packs. Not like I'll ever get around to playing them anyway and they're just there to be collected. :)

    This video might convince you to give them a shot. I think you can do this in multiplayer also.

    Ha! Nice! Remionds me of the fact the only thing I ever did in GTA 2 was get the tank and just go joyriding.
    This video also makes a good case for GTA 4

    Wheeeee!
