    There is currently offer on Indonesia store where if you preorder 2 games between the 29th August and 4th of August you get 15% off voucher sometime in September. Very tempted to get Spider-Man deluxe edition but not sure if any of the preorder bonuses are tied to purchasing account. life is Strange 2 also works out at €23 which is cheaper than Irish store. Also you can use revolut to pay instead of buying psn cards

    Hi folks, I just bought a 15 month subscription from CD Keys but when I went to redeem it says it isn't available in my region. I foolishly just presumed the UK one would work...

    Anything I can do?

    Sell it on to someone in the UK?

    Set up a UK account (any valid UK address will do, like a hotel), then activate your PS4 as the primary console for that account. That way your main account can use the PS+ and any games you buy on the UK account.

    Life is strange before the storm is 6.99e, the deluxe edition is 9.99e.

    Is the deluxe edition worth getting?

    Yupp as you the farewell episode which is a prequel to LIS 1, it's a must if you like the first game.

    I seriously have this recurring nightmare where I'm in a shop with wall to wall cheap video games but all the titles are obscure crap I don't want. This comes true in real life any time I browse through theses sales lists or accidentally walk into gamestop.


    Just a disclaimer, I know there's good games on the list but most of it is stuff I've never heard of.

    I wouldn't have the time to research all those games to try and find an under appreciated gem or two among them.

    Posted on the Spiderman thread also, I have it preordered for 36 euro after buying a couple of games from argos to trade:


    https://www.gamestop.ie/%E2%82%AC1-Trade-Offer

    Argos are selling Rise of the Tomb Raider on PS4 for 15 euro and Scribblenauts Showdown for 20. There are better deals if the games are in stock in your local store but they have plenty of 20 euro games so you could at least get it for 41 euro by making a detour first. Worth taking the time to go through the list of games in Argos 20 euro and under and compare to the Gamestop list.

    Also, Smyths have plenty of 20 euro games on that list as well.

    Related question to bargains.

    I am trying to phone Gamestop Waterford and can't get through, maybe someone here knows.

    Can I trade two Xbox one games from the list and get a PS4 game for €1 ?

    Many Thanks!

    I bought it there but I'm not seeing a code or email - Just a "Pending Verification" for the past 5 minutes...?

    Hopefully get this done next week have one of the games on the list , that I am not fond of.

    Check your emails sometimes they send you a verification email and might need a picutre of your license etc. On another note is there a wallet limit on the PSN?

    Also do the games have to be new or could also get some games off the list in Cex?

    Two Xbox one games worked for a trade for me in Gamestop for Spiderman. Sweet.

    I bought Lego City Adventure in Smyths for €20 and Borderlands Handsome Collection for €15 in Argos.

    If you can get Yoku's Island Express for PS or Xb, you can get Spiderman for €29.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,611 ✭✭✭tony1980


    Had two Switch games I was finished with on the list so picked it up for a euro there. Great deal!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭pmce4


    I added a college photo ID and they came back looking for either a passport or driving licence picture. not too sure now I think I will request a refund


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭pmce4


    did you get your code??
    I ordered as well but not too sure if I want to give a photo of my passport to this site

    Cheers for the tip in Borderlands, just reserved a copy there, have a copy of Rise of the Tomb Raider than I’m finished with so all in all a pretty good deal

    I have gotten a few codes off them, i sent a picture of my licence but scribbled out everything other than what they needed.

    Cheers they also asked why I was using a VPN, as they picked it up on their systems. So I sent them a message using my phone and they haven't got back to me yet. they have a short time before I start a paypal dispute


    Happy days sorted got code and redeemed

    Seeing as its 70 (69.99) in Gamestop, you could pick it up in Argos with Rise of the Tomb Raider / XBox Borderlands, and trade them in +plus the one euro, and still be cheaper than buying new in Gamestop....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 345 ✭✭panevthe3rd


    Anyone know the price of a 1tb ps4 pro with spiderman with a trade in of a 500gb ps4?

    Not the red limited edition one.

    Spiderman is tempting me to upgrade even though I barely use my ps4 at the moment


  • Registered Users Posts: 666 ✭✭✭Speckydodge

    I was the same but Spiderman looks amazing on the standard ps4 I don't think it's worth the upgrade

    Black Friday, it’d be unwise to even look for one before that since it’s only two months away.

    €49,99 in smyths. With their current €10 off every €50 you just need to add something worth at least €0,01 to get controller for bit over €40.

    Edit: actually dont think the smyths offer includes them so disregard

    I've been lurking on the playstation blog waiting for that fated day when Last of Us Left Behind is reduced on PS3.

    Apparently they're having loads of specifically Last of Us related deals for "Outbreak day", including free avatars on PS4 if people are interested:

    https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2018/09/26/the-last-of-us-outbreak-day-2018/

    No Left Behind PS3 DLC on sale as far as I can see still ;_;
