    Yeah, probably a foreign key gotten from a VPN that's cutting CD Projeck Red out of a slice.

    I'd consider it a good deal but you could still do better.

    If you look around listing ads like adverts.ie and eBay.com you can easily find a code for €20.

    I bought mine on EBay. There are plenty of cheap Witcher 3 codes available since Nvidia have been bundling Witcher 3 codes for free with the purchase of certain graphics cards. People have been selling on codes to essentially get cash back on the price of their new graphics card.

    I wouldn't pay over €20 for it however the game is well worth full retail price however with so many codes out there it's so easy to snag a bargain on what looks to be game of the year. (So far)

    (Xbox One) Assassin's Creed Unity €9.45

    Wolfenstein - The Old Blood (PS4) - €13.71 (converted from £9.85)

    Link

    I thought this is a pretty good deal considering I saw it in Gamestop the other day for €25.00

    Steam have the entire Fallout Franchise on sale. Every game 40% off. FO3: GOTY Edition for €12. Incredible.

    That's a fairly poor discount. It's been close to a fiver a good few times. Even as low as about €3-4 (yes, the GOTYE). I'd say wait till the steam sale and you might get a better rate.

    Agree, id be very surprised if they didn't have Fallout 3 GOTY and Fallout: NV Ulti for €4.99 each, they usually do it's one of their common ones. Hold off til the summer sale. :)

    Be careful as far as I remember it doesn't run on win 7 64 bit. Read the small print before buying to be safe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,291 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    Theres no fix for that yet? I thought you could tweak it so it runs perfectly?

    Yeah there's a warning message the steam listing: "Notice: Fallout 3 is not optimized for Windows 7 and later."

    Quick google suggests there is steps that can be taken to minimize crashes.

    Yup, 64 bit. Both the vanilla edition and modded and not once did I have any issues that I can recall.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 976 ✭✭✭James74


    I can second this. Played many hours on Win 7 64 bit, non modded, no problems whatsoever.

    Never played the Last of Us, don't have a PS though. Love post-apocalyptic type games so this one should be right up my street. Would love to try the remastered version.
