    Will I have any trouble picking this up on the day in Xtra-Vision or Gamestop? Or do tripe-A games actually sell out nowadays? Cheers.

    i thought i read something about witcher 3 being sold out in some places

    i think with the low install base on next gen compared to ps360 its still in the early years really

    it could easily go out of stock i reckon


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,923 ✭✭✭kearneybobs


    Anyone know if this is going to be available to preload on PC?

    The Witcher 3 was out of stock in all Argos branches around the country but they don't stock that much anyway. That was just the PS4 version though.

    The PS4 has a 3:1 sales ratio over the Xbox One in Ireland and Europe with the UK being a big exception.

    Still I'd say you will get a copy no problem with the crazy prices the likes of Gamestop and HMV are charging.

    http://a.loveisover.me/qynlub.mp4 so joker is back apparently. I hope this is just a hallucination or something... Joker was the star of all 3 games so far, I'm quite sick of him at this point.

    I read it will be a mission in the Bludhaven Police Department where you are trying to breakout a certain someone. Doesn't sound open world but could be interesting.

    Joker is in the game only as hallucinations apparently.

    Not happy that Amazon has still not shipped my copy and it's down for 1 day delivery. They usually ship early for UK orders.

    Which edition are you getting the CE has been delayed.People who are getting the CE are getting a digital copy when it comes out Tuesday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,161 ✭✭✭tok9


    Tesco emailed me this morning that it's been dispatched so hopefully I'll have it tomorrow.

    Standard edition, ordered it over a year ago. I think they are dragging their feet because I got for €42 with the lowest price deal.:D

    It's only now moved to preparing for dispatch.

    No. You're just a number (of thousands) in a queue.

    Yeah figures, so much for first in first out anyway.

    Get on to them on live chat?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,870 ✭✭✭✭Generic Dreadhead


    It's out today, they're dispatching it today, what can you expect?

    If you wanted to be 1,000% sure of having it Day 1, you should have stuck with B&M shops.

    Say what you like about Parcel Motel, Dispatching Earlier, GTA5 this that and the other.... with Amazon, nothing is certain.... except for savings :P

    I wouldn't really be bothered chasing them on it so long as I have for the end of the week. I'm getting a better deal than most and they are usually on the ball so I'll let it slide.

    I'd say given the low price amazon had it at a few months back, some of us are going to be disappointed when it doesn't ship on time or might have to wait till they get more stock!

    /Gasp!

    Good Job I have the Witcher 3, and hadn't planned on playing Batman straight away.

    Well my order did say estimated dispatch for Friday gone and its still sitting there.

    I've ordered games on a Friday morning and had them on Monday night with them via PM before.

    They are usually never this late unless you select super saver delivery.

    I ordered Fallout3 GOTY PS3 on Saturday night/Sunday morning and it's shipped and tracked as in Belfast already. It really is luck of the draw with them.

    So what do people think my chances of walking into my local GameStop tomorrow and picking up a copy when they're open?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,161 ✭✭✭tok9


    Very likely. This game won't sell out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,702 ✭✭✭EoinMcLovin


    Ordered Witcher 3 through HMV and it wasn't dispatched until Monday evening after 5 and I got it on the Wednesday. Ordered Batman through Xtra-vision so the same thing will probably happen. With the 3.5GB patch probably won't play until Thursday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,618 ✭✭✭Mr Freeze


    ORDER PLACED
    13 October 2014
    TOTAL
    £37.92

    Order Details Invoice
    Preparing for Dispatch
    Dispatch estimate: Monday, 22 June 2015
    Delivery estimate: Friday, 26 June 2015 - Saturday, 27 June 2015

    Might have it for the weekend, but I doubt it.

    No problem I'd say. Considering all the following factors, with the current install base, it's not a platform exclusive and the price they are charging.

    If you're walking in, check a few shops first. Tesco and Argos often have new releases for €60

    I only went to gamestop to pre-order and because I had games on their list for the 9.99 offer.

    If I was a release day cash buyer like yourself I wouldn't be inclined to pay €75 for it. Smyths I think have it for €68

    How in the name of Jeebus can Gamestop charge €75 for this game? It's legal robbery.
