Best price in-store ?

Buckster · 22-10-2009, 5:00 PM

for those of us who haven't pre-ordered

went to Asdas the other day - I could pre-order (with no payment) - but couldn't tell me how much it'd be.

any tip-offs to wheres going to be the best price ?

I'm guessing Sainsburys or Tescos could be a good bet ?

thanks,

Mark.

Buckster · 22-10-2009, 6:10 PM

usher23 · 22-10-2009, 9:29 PM

Hey guys just got back from work (Game Swindon) late one i know, confirmed price standard edition £39.99, special which is pretty awsome for a change is £54.99

Kevmo · 22-10-2009, 9:52 PM

asda confirmed at £39.71, just phoned up my local branch. am umming and aahing at this one, coz i dont really like driing games but NFS: shift is good. might just wait and see what tesco are like tomorrow, no 24hour ones near me and the closest games-selling one opens at 6am

Kinetic Frenzy · 22-10-2009, 10:48 PM

^^^ A word of warning - Forza may feel a bit dry in comparison to NFS Shift. Then again thats not to say just because you enjoy the thrills of NFS that you can't like the Forza game, it's just that there aren't many that aren't into driving games but would say they like both games.

Did you try the demo for Forza 3?

Kevmo · 23-10-2009, 1:11 AM

i aint tried the forza demo yet but it's in the download queue for tomorrow so ill check it out then. went to the local asda, they were only selling the standard version.

According to usher23 it is going to be £40.

Looks like Gamestation will be cheapest as their site shows £35 which is normally the same as in-store.

Although I do have some games to trade in and a £10 giftcard for Game so it would make the game pretty cheap from there

Goooner · 23-10-2009, 10:35 AM

Asda advert in the paper this morning, saying £39.99.

*dan25730* · 23-10-2009, 10:49 AM

Got through to gamestation, 39.99 in store... Im gonna try pc world at lunch, didn't they used to do some sort of pricematch thing?.

pembssurf · 23-10-2009, 10:57 AM

Just bought mine from tescos early one £37.71 or something like that or £37.91 even. Loads of the shelves...felt like a bit of a geek getting it that early. Think game was £39.99

Andy 1974 · 23-10-2009, 10:57 AM

Just back from the shops - HMV £39.99,Game £39.99 or £54.99 ltd ed,and the MS wheel for £59.99 when bought with Forza 3,Gamestation £39.99 and Morrisons £39.99.

Mr_Belowski · 23-10-2009, 11:03 AM

£37.summat in Tescos here in Loughborough this morning

st4fore · 23-10-2009, 11:53 AM

£39.71 in Asda, £39.99 PC World

*dan25730* · 23-10-2009, 12:07 PM

Right, Printed the gamestation £34.99 web page and took it to PC world. got it price matched to £34.49

I think I may have been a bit jammy as he was saying they would match the in store price which I knew was £39.99, thing is he was a bit dappy and the que was building, he was the only till open so he sort of rushed it through.

mark1000 · 23-10-2009, 12:40 PM

Just got a price match at gamestation for the LE ver @ blockbusters for £44.99

Mark.

Davieg10c · 23-10-2009, 1:04 PM

I went to toys r us on my break and got it for £36.89. Not bad, i also bought uncharted 2 for £37.89 while i was in there. Not bad also, and they take american express, happy days (5% cash back on my credit card at the mo)

*noisecrime* · 23-10-2009, 4:25 PM

Couldn't find any decent deals on this, so went to Game got it for £29 by trading in GTA 4 (£6) and Forza 2 (£5). Disappointed at GTA price, but makes sense to trade Forza 2 since with 3 i'm never going to play it again and a fiver was more than i was expecting.
