I hope we get something as well. Gamestop have not answered any question relating to online customers. There is something about they are unable to modify the order without losing our spot.

Just seen on their facebook that they're not doing anything at all for online customers, no discounts of anything like they said before. :mad:

Should know about my Amazon order by tomorrow ( but they said the same about thing last week), at that point I'm seeing if anyone wants my gamestop console otherwise I'm cancelling and telling exactly why.

Whomever is manning the Gamestop FB page is a right smart arse. Once I get my console from them no more custom from me!

Can you please answer this question once and for all, no ifs, buts or maybes just a simple yes or no, will GameStop be doing any special offers for the customers that pre-ordered PS4s online to make up for not offering them bundles?

Did they get him from Dublin Zoo and give him a keyboard?

Lucreto · 11-11-2013 05:39PM

It is a disgrace they are doing this and I plan to cancel all the pre-orders and move them to Amazon and GAME.

I will only use them for exclusives now.

edit just saw this

@GameStopIreland So online #PS4 orders won't be getting either of the killzone bundles then.

GameStop Ireland @GameStopIreland 8 Oct
@C1ancy Unfortunately not Matt but we will have additional offers like €10 or €20 off an additional controller or game of your choice.'

I know there's probably not a 100% answer on this but thought i'd post it.

Does anyone think Amazon will ship Consoles before the 29th and not on the 29th ?

The 29th is a Friday and I know a lot of people from Ireland has ordered from them. Do you think knowing they shipping to Ireland will take at least 2 days.. they would Ship them Wednesday

:D Wishful thinking I know.

My Delivery date EST is at 3rd / 4th Dec on Amazon.

If you use Postal Motel you would get it Saturday. They promise launch day delivery so they could ship the Wednesday or Thursday. Using postel motel adds a day but get it Saturday.

If this is true then could ye not get the standard PS4 and Killzone for around the same price as the KZ bundle?

I remember asking this question of a similar company many years ago and I don't believe that they are allowed to ship them before that date.

On the stroke of midnight they will go all guns blazing but no, I don't reckon they will be sending them earlier.

Killzone bundle-€499

PS4- €399
Camera €59.99
Controller €59.99
Killzone- €69.99 = €588.97

It €10 off each = €558.97
If €20 off each = €528.97

There is a €90 difference that I could use to buy another game.

Markitron · 11-11-2013 05:59PM

No I meant the standard Killzone bundle with just the game, not the mega bundle, I preordered in early June instore with Gamestop and I even I wasnt early enough to get a mega bundle

Sorry the other bundle was €439

Buying them separately will cost €469

€30 difference

Markitron · 11-11-2013 06:19PM

Killzone is 70 quid, WTF? does it come with a free go of Katy Perry or something?

11-11-2013 06:24PM

The best thing anyone could do is avoid any packages with Killzone in it anyway.

Anyone who switched to the PS3 early will remember games like Resistance polluted the pre played games sections of the shops for a few months.
There'll be so many copies the price will shoot down in no time as basic Economics kicks in.
That seems to be the bundle that most people are getting and it won't have a long shelf life.

Every launch game on disc is 70 quid roughly, or 65.

And thats actually right, resistance did end up trade in fodder :pac:

Thats Gamestop for you. I was expecting the price to go down but it never did. It is €58 on Amazon.

My order went in a €65, they'll probably up the price for me which is another reason to drop them.

cloud493 · 11-11-2013 06:41PM

John lewis are doing games for £48. Plus 30% discount card, = under £35 each. Can't argue.

Xenji · 11-11-2013 06:43PM

It is €42 Euro if you download it from the US PSN Store.

Where does one get a discount card? and they seem to only have COD:Ghosts

Use Parcel Motel ,that way you avoid the extra vat and get it quicker.

Just looking at the Gamestop facebook page and all the complaints that are there.

I checked back a few minutes later and they were gone. I friended one of them and he said he was banned from messaging gamestop.

Can't handle the complaints so they ban them.

If more and more people ban them their money then they will get the message.

F*ckin wow. This Nub is still at it

" http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Brand-New-PS4-/321246020170?pt=UK_VideoGames_VideoGameConsoles_VideoGameConsoles&hash=item4acbc1424a "

He had it down as sold on Adverts yesterday because someone offered him €575 " http://www.adverts.ie/playstation/brand-new-ps4/4142164#comment_20471950 " .

Wow.

I've reported him to adverts as he accepted an offer on there and then put it up on eBay.

It's a reasonable price at €460 considering, still cheaper than buying separate if you did manage to get one.

good points but the killzone bundle essentially values the game at €40 instead of 70 so it would have to fall in value a fair amount and very quickly before i would be pissed with picking it up with the bundle.
