GTA IV, Far Cry 2, BioShock PS3 and more go to £17.99 on Play.com

Our sources never lie: Play.com’s launched a ridiculous sale, dropping the likes of GTA IV, Far Cry 2, BioShock PS3, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Saints Row 2 to an eye-watering £17.99.

You can buy Age Of Conan: Hyborian Adventures for a tenner through there. There are even reduced Wii bundles: the console, Wii Sports and Wii Fit is yours for £250.

Just buy. Buy for Jesus. It’s nearly fucking Christmas. Spending all the money you were saving for Little Johnny’s stocking fillers on grotesquely violent videogames. Go.

Thanks, That Happy Cat!

Fucking Christmas?

That sounds like the sort of thing I never get invited to. :(

Looks like I’m going to have to get GTA IV again now. Can’t say fairer than that price.

I wish I knew someone apart from me that I buy presents for at Christmas that played videogames. Their present’d be sorted. Unfortunately, I don’t.

Thanks to you, I just spent 50 euro I should have kept in my pocket (well, credit card) to play.com. I hope you feel good about yourselves :-P

/wonders if they’ll include Fable 2 to that list…

By the time I’d got everything set up it was gone midnight! I was trying to play Mirror’s Edge with my eyes propped open with matchsticks. :-D

You’d have been better off with Saints Row than GTA, It’s much less frustrating, and quite a bit more knockabout fun.

Thing is, I absolutely know i’d love GTA to bits if they only put some bloody checkpoints in the thing!

As it was I ended up chewing my own arms off.

In summary, buy SR2 as well, you can say I made you do it, I don’t mind :D

According to my girlfriend, it’s for today ONLY, which really pickles my mushrooms. I can’t spend any money on games today, I’m spending it on my girlfriend. Damn Christmas.

I think I want to get Last Remnant, but I’m really not sure because of all the contradictory reviews. :(

Blagged Saints Row 2 on PS3. Farking bargain!

Now if only they had FarCry2 on PS3 on offer as well. Just 360 version unfortunately.

Looks like they did and ran out of stock maybe …

Or maybe the page is just screwed. It does say RRP£50 you say £32 though.

Just ordered Last Remnant (360) and SW:TFU (PS3). Couldn’t help myself. I’m an addict, and a sucker for anything SW related. :(

Oh well!

FarCry 2 was definately there this morning for PS3, maybe they made a mistake, they did that once before with some limited edition star wars book ends, reduced from £70 to £19.99, 20 minutes later they were back up to £70, managed to get my order in just in time, seen them on ebay for £300 recently, very tempting…
