    You can check the live stock online, but yeah everywhere bar Mayo and Sligo has been sold out for weeks now.

    I got one in Tallaght there about 10 days ago, according to stock checker on their site they still have stock: https://www.gamestop.ie/StoreLocator/Index?productId=69784&variantType=New

    I've rung around most Dublin 'stops. Nothing. All saying ring in daily to check for new stock. The deal has been extended to for a few weeks, AFAIK, so hopefully that means more units incoming.

    I was talking to them in my local and they rang nearly every store possible, the only store with stock of them is Letterkenny but all stores will have stock replenished in the next week or so I was told as they have acquired another batch of stock :D

    There can't be enough people buying used original PS4 consoles to make shelling out the Pros for 100 quid worthwhile surely...

    guess the Pro's must not be selling as much as they would have liked.
    I think many people just dont want to buy Pro because they either dont have a 4K tv or dont consider it a worthwhile upgrade.

    Yeah, I recently bought a 4K TV and was planning on upgrading the xbox first, but I kind of had to jump on this when I saw it.

    I've had a 4k tv for around two years and had no want to upgrade as I felt it was a lot to just get a pro, only ended up getting one because of this deal. My launch day ps4 and 100quid for a pro, yes please!

    Have you noticed a big jump in the quality of graphics between the standard ps4 and the pro?

    I'll be 100% honest here and say not really to be honest.

    I have seen a slight increase so happy enough with the price I got but would be unhappy if I paid the 400€.

    I have read a lot of people saying there is and I think the main reason why I have yet to see it is the only game I've really played is fortnite and used it to watch Netflix. I'm sure if I bought a new game like Spiderman etc you would see a good difference.

    Think PS4 games need to be specifically enhanced? Could be wrong there. The biggest difference I've come across is in framerate rather than resolution

    I'm really not sure to be honest but your probably right.

    Thinking of getting red dead so I'll know for sure then, defo worth the upgrade at this price though

    I’d say the difference between standard and Pro consoles will be at its greatest for Red Dead 2 so well worth getting the Pro with that in mind.

    I’m only using mine for Rocket League and 1080p supersampling, no visual differences whatsoever.

    €5 fee for the rubber split on one analog stick and a dent in the plastic part under your palm




  • Good deal but I don’t see a reason why I’d need to upgrade I have a PS4 slim and it’s likely the ps5 will come out in 2019 no?

    I don't think anyone is expecting it before 'holiday' 2020.

    4k is the main benefit.

    Don't expect the ps5 that soon to be honest.




  • GameStop will take knowledge is power and singstar both are cheap but won’t take battleborn back to CEX one last time lol

    Your doing for it Spider-Man 4K lol

    Where? Having awful trouble finding stock.. the online 'live' stock checker isnt updating in real time. Ive rang around for several days with no luck.

    I got the last one in Newbridge, I found the Live checker accurate enough and just kept an eye for the last week until a nearby stores showed having stock.
