omariqy Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Saw that Argos are doing PS3 and 4 games (Fifa 12, Unchartered 2, GT, Battlefield) and Karate Kid Blu Ray for £259.95. Has anyone seen any better deals around? Or anything similar for the XBOX 360? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Looks to be the cheapest on HUKD,tbh there aren't many deals that get past them. But it is only a good deal if you will watch/ play what is included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 12, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2011 I'm not sure if it's still on, but there was an absolutely obscene bundle deal at Gamestation last week. PS3 320gb Assassins Creed Revelations Battlefield 3 Fifa 12 Need for Speed: The Run Batman Arkham City Deus Ex Resistance 3 And Ferrari Challenge £299. If that's still on, it'd be hard to touch imo.

Chindie Posted December 12, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2011 Ha, it was/is a good deal, and wasn't advertised at all. 360... er... best deal(s) I know of for 360 are 250gb Xbox S Forza 4 Fifa 3 months Gold Media Remote £199.99 or 320GB CoD Special edition w/2 CoD special edition controllers and MW3 Forza 4 Battlefield 3 £239.99 Something along those lines. The first one has been really popular. The second is a great deal considering on release a month ago that was more than that without the extra games.

Demitri_C Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 i am tempted to go for the argos deal. i have the old fat ps3 and it doesnt work that great. is it good value for money? whats the games like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 12, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2011 Uncharted 3 is a very pretty very polished action game, a bit like 'Indiana Jones-the game' if you get me. Gets quite hard in some places and relies a lot on big action set pieces. Gran Turismo 5 is the latest version of the famous driving sim, very pretty, very dry to play. Battlefield 3 is a very pretty FPS, very short single player that rips off CoD all the way through, multi player is defined by quite big open maps, lots of vehicles and a necessity for team work to achieve goals - can be great if you get into it, most people prefer the simpler, more basic, CoD style. FIFA 12 is football. It's not a bad deal, equally it's not the best I've ever seen. Uncharted is great if you live 3rd person action spectacles, FIFA is ubiquitous, Battlefield can be superb if you like it, and Gran Turismo is the best sim style racer on the Ps3 but equally it's not really very exciting any more.

Demitri_C Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 thanks ofr the info mate. i been looking online and i cant find anything nearly as good as this. most offer you the console and one game with karate kid for about £250, your getting four games and a blu ray with this deal seems like your saving like £100+ the question is wait until janaury where there might be a better deal?

Chindie Posted December 13, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 13, 2011 http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/320gb-ps3-console-with-8-games-299-99-instore-gamestation-game-1079037#post-comment-nojs Yep, thats the Gamestation deal I mentioned above. I've no idea if it's still on, and it was not advertised at all (I only knew about it because of a commercial update sent around work mentioning it being on), so the best thing I guess you could do is pop into a couple of local stores and ask if it's still on. Or ring up and see if they can patch you on to a few stores in your area. It really is a great deal though. The oldest game there (asides from the Ferrari download) is from the end of August. HMV are doing a similar one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yeah they are still doing it apparently. What is the HMV one and is it online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Just found it. Good deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 13, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 13, 2011 HMV 320gb PS3 Uncharted Bundle (includes Uncharted 3 and Faster blu-ray) Batman Arkham City Battlefield 3 Fifa 12 Need for Speed the Run Saints Row 3 Driver San Francisco £299.99. I think the Gamestation one is slightly better, but I am biased . Depends which game selection takes your fancy I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Im tempted by the Argos deal as I like all of the games on the list and I only like some of the games on the Gamestation/HMV deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 13, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 13, 2011 I think the Gamestation and HMV deals represent better value if you want a few really great (and quite new) titles to be cracking on, and Need for Speed... For the extra £40, you're getting some top games. But if the Argos one takes your fancy, it's definitely not a bad deal. The only thing that, if it were me buying, would have me slightly off put is that GT5 seems likes it's been chucked in to make up the numbers, along with the Blu-ray. It's a year old now and common thought on it was, impressive as it was, it's feeling a bit tired. I'd have wanted another newer title. But that's me. If you fancy everything in it it's a decent deal at that price, I can't think of any bundles similar at similar money that beat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 that £300 deal with faster and the new batman is very appealing too! do you think there will be deals like this come janaury? would prefer to wait until then once xmas is over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 I just went to both the game and hmv on oxford st. The game deal was with 7 games and the HMV with the same amount plus a blu ray. I got the HMV deal as i preferred the games. Happy days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 14, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2011 Nice one. Enjoy. that £300 deal with faster and the new batman is very appealing too! do you think there will be deals like this come janaury? would prefer to wait until then once xmas is over Bundle deals will still be about, they may not be quite so appealing - the big 7/8 game ones won't be about, 2/3/4 game bundles will be. Most of deals are based on the companies having a shitload of stock of those titles. They have a 'hard bundle' which is a console bundle that Sony have shipped to them, and then they've added in titles released in the last few months they got delivered a horrendous amount of, so FIFA, NFS, Batman... it's shifting stock mostly. I know the Game/Gamestation big bundle is also a reaction to HMVs big bundle. Because they're based on hard bundles if the stock still hangs about you'll probably still be able to pick up a bundle with, for example, Uncharted 3 and Faster along with something like FIFA and maybe Battlefield post Christmas.

Demitri_C Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 ah that makes sense, may be even cheaper come janaury then i just want a good bundle deal with batman and fifa 12 really rest of other games are not really games i would play although it is value for money. I would prefer to pay around the £200-£250 mark. is there much difference from the 160gb to 320gb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
