    Just got a call from Smyths in Waterford, apparently they wont be getting as many killzone megabundles as they thought, so I had to either switch to killzone basic package or just the basic console.

    He didn't say how many megabundles they were getting, but I was too far down the list to get that one.

    I am still guaranteed launch day console but not the package I wanted. I went for the basic because it was really the extra controller and camera I was going for, didn't really care much about Killzone.

    He also said that because the packages Sony was sending them weren't that great they really hope to do some package of their own on launch day but doesn't know for a fact yet.

    I am in the exact same boat.... i dont care as long as I have it on launch as i will only be playing BF4...

    Got a call from Smyths; mega bundle not available so just going to standard PS4, no bundle.

    Don't care as KZ looks muck although the extra controller was handy.

    What Smyths?

    No bundles for any online gamestop customers over here and it doesn't seem like they'll have any discounts at all.

    Absolutely, personally not too interested in BF4 either, I am now thinking Infamous and Knack along with a second controller.

    Not sure if you saw my post a few pages back, but be wary about ordering from Amazon France or Germany when it come to electronics.
    Just be wary that amazon.de has a habit of cancelling electronic items that are being sent outside of Germany just before they are due to be dispatched, the French site could be the same, a lot of people had issues getting the Samsung Ativ sent over here when it was a bargain alert.

    Smyths Carrickmines rang me to say I had to change.

    I know I am well down the list of pre-orders - to the point I was surprised to be getting Day 1 in the first place.

    Just got a call from Smyths , killzone bundle is cancelled , sony don't have enough stock to meet demand , il still get launch day console and they will be doing bundles on the day


  • Posts: 6,053 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I expect the same call from Smyths Tallaght.

    I was 70 + on the list.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭Lord Spence


    just back from smyths, The megabundle is mine:D i ordered on the 9th of October for my bundle upgrade, so basically I asked how they will deal with it on the day and they said if you walk in on launch day and you reciept shows you took a mega bundle and the the date on your recipet is the 11th of ofct our earlier you will get a bundle. They got 11 mega bundles of sony and 29 concoles in total. Shame on anyone that misses out because its a great value bundle and and early ign preview was positive on KZ

    Hmmmm, sounds like it doesn't matter if you were first on the original preorder list, this just guaranteed you a launch day console, it was then about who within that list came in first to order which bundle.

    Congrats on getting your one though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,721 ✭✭✭Otacon


    I have been checking my GAME pre-order repeatedly since applying for the KZ+DS4+Eye bundle. Look what I found today...

    Just found this thread.:)

    I am ordering from Gamestop and I got my confirmation email saying I will get it launch day.

    From what I have been reading the Killzone bundle is only being offered to people who ordered in the shops. I ordered online so it looks like I have been left out.

    Can anyone here prove this wrong?

    I'm afraid that is the case. People who ordered online got saddled.

    I'm afraid so, anyone who ordered online got shafted!
    Just remember how Gamestop treated you when it comes to buying games and accessories for your new console.

    Thought as much. :(

    I would have went to the shop and pre-ordered if that was the case. Pity they didn't announce them back in June.

    I would have tried GAME online but them and Amazon have been cancelling oversea pre-orders slowly over the mast few weeks. Didn't want to lose my pre-order like my friend who ordered from GAME.

    He made it sound like the whole sku , said he had rang 25 from 50 people on first day launch and most were taking the offer of a bundle on the day ,

    I was number 35 on the list for first day launch when I checked 2 weeks ago
