    Got Final Fantasy XII, Lumines Plus, and Street Fighter Hyper Fighting (with Full Street fighter anime) for 17 euro total in Xtra Vision's "buy 2 get 1 free" deal on preowned.

    Dragon quest 8 for the ps2 is only 17 euros on play.com. Just started playing it, very enjoyable, cartoony but beautiful RPG. Quite critically acclaimed too. But alot of people missed it first time around.

    Worth a gander if you like you FF etc.

    shame that buy 2 get 1 free deal is only on ps2 games... tried it with ps3 the other day. no luck. shame, since i can probably get it at gamestop.

    Anyone interested in getting some Razer gear - Scan's Today Only has some on the bottom of the page. Not too sure how much of a saving there is to be made though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,411 ✭✭✭oceanclub


    The WW2 online shooter Day of Defeat: Source is only $4.99 + VAT on Steam this week. It's been around a few years, but in my mind still my favourite ever online shooter, so highly recommended.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,411 ✭✭✭oceanclub


    Was in Game on Dawson St and they also have some nice PC game prices:

    * F.E.A.R Platinum Edition: €24.99 (or €20 in their "2 for €40" deal).

    Original game plus two standalone expansions; I paid €36 for this
    on play.com only last month *groan*

    * Mass Effect: €24.98

    Great price for a new game; again, I only bought this a few weeks ago for €36 online *double groan*

    * Medieval II Total War: €14.98

    At least I hadn't already bought this! They also have the gold edition with the expansion pack included for €24.98.

    * Hellgate: London: €24.98

    * Quake, Far Cry and Thief: Deadly Shadows: €5 each in their
    "3 for €15" deal. If you only buy one, get Thief:DS.

    That's a great box set, and not as rare as I thought it would be. There's a few copies in GAME in Blanchardstown too - part of a 2 for €40 offer I think. I went looking for it the week it came out and it was €40. I went back the next week and it had dropped to €25 that quickly.

    Got a copy in GAME, thanks.

    One annoying thing was the fact that they urged me to take a loyalty card (even after I said I don't buy games in shops much) and NOT telling me they charge €5 for the privilege! Didnt' notice 'til I checked the receipt at home. I didn't even get any points/money off for the game I bought at the same time.
