[Official UK] Xbox 360 Special Offers & Deals

[PiracyX]

Cheap games everywhere and a lack of money due to present buying.... EPIC FAIL.

I agree. Just too many good games and not enough funds.

At least there is a slow down on games until end of January so we can pick up some before they start coming again!

[peacemf]

zaavi just went bust by the way

[Kushan]

Guess we'll not be seeing such good offers on games next year, there wont be anyone left to sell them at this rate >_>

Joke post?

Or serious?

edit: OMG I think it's true, damn!

[Kushan]

Yeah it's true, just looked it up on BBC news. I don't think they've went completely bust, from the looks of it they're going to stay in business, but need to make some quick cash (i.e. sell off a few stores, sack a few people, etc.).

Zavvi used the disti-arm of Woolworths as a supplier. They couldn't guarantee stock. Shame!

I feel for any staff working there :(

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

My mate works in Zavvi :/ I'll txt him later and see if he knows anything from the inside :p

[Kushan]

Usually when stuff like this happens, the staff know about as much as we do =\

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

It's not all I'm going to be contacting him for anyways, but I'll mention it and see if he knows anything. You'd be surprised what you find out if you just ask :p

Zavvi in adminstration :o Good deals on games me thinks :p

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

I don't know why everyone is so surprised about Zavvi going into administration. I posted the news December 2nd. It was bound to happen when their supplier got into trouble.

[Chicane-UK Veteran]

The new Prince of Persia... ?17.99 @ Play.com

Yeah I can't see why people were so surprised. Business' such as Zavvi use an extremely prone boom and bust model, they make 80% of their sales in the run up to Christmas (November / December). With Woolworths going under and taking with it EntertainmentUK (EntertainmentUK was the only profitable part of Woolworths) which was Zavvi's distributor, forcing Zavvi to close its web site it was bound to happen.

Still shame to see them go, they have only recently opened up a massive shop in the new Liverpool One shopping centre, but then again it looks like that shopping centre is about to lose a fair number of shops. :(

[Kushan]

The one in Liverpool One isn't THAT big.

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

The one in Glasgow (there's two actually iirc) but the flagship shop is 3 floors high. It even used to have a coffee shop in the book section. Not sure if thats still there though, I only frequent the games section :p

[snugglepuffle]

its sad because i went in the over the weekend and they had some good deals on. wireless 360 controller's for ?22.99 and 12 months live for ?29.35 and wireless internet adapter for ?33.99

[huddy]

Far Cry 2 - ?17.98

[DomZ]

I wish left 4 dead's price would drop already!

[.KICK]

I wish left 4 dead's price would drop already!

Yeah I am looking for a good L4D deal as well :(

[Pheee]

Yeah I am looking for a good L4D deal as well :(

Arent we all?

[Nick Sheldon]

I _was_ until I played the demo.

Very disappointed with it.

[Guest]

Will World at War ever be cheap? I can't find it for less than RRP anywhere :(

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

There's really no rush to buy L4D. It's a good game, but it's not like you guys are missing the game/story of the century. Go down the arcade and play House of the Dead. Almost the same thing :p

Ok, so slight exaggeration there but still ;)

[James123]

If your local Woolworths hasn't closed yet definitely take a look! Mine closes tomorrow, popped down there today and they had quite a few games left (behind the counter in a draw - had to ask the person at the desk) all for 50% off. I got:

Gears of War 2 - ?17.99

Fallout 3 - ?14.99

Call of Duty 4 - ?12.50

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - ?8.50

Eternal Sonata - ?4.99

Lost Odyssey - ?4.99

They had Guitar Hero 3 with Guitar for ?29.99 too but I had no money:(eft :(
