Says someone whose name on the internet is "milf hunter".

GG.

£42 in my Asda. Well played

Bloody Asda deals, my local is 20 miles away :disappointed:

I liked your comment by mistake, fat fingers on the phone screen.
Its amazing how the massively overused "Wild goose chase" has been morphed into several other phrases that bear no relevance.

In recent times I've seen the following beauties.
A wild goose hunt
A wild duck chase
A wild duck hunt
And other bewildering incarnations but the golden goose?

Reminds me of my post from 6 years ago (almost to the day) when someone was banging on about something being so scarce it was like... Wait for it... "Rocky Horse Poo".

my asda has it at 35 gutted have some heat though

By the way, this is still working. Even though there weren't any on the shelves in my Asda in Birmingham I asked them to check stock and bingo they had 4. When he scanned it to get a price and it came up £15 the chaps said "Wow that's cheap!". :smiley:

There were a few copies left when I picked up one, must have all gone. Did you try other Asda at Bishopbriggs or any other stores around Glasgow?

I'll have a look tonight, but I imagine my local store will have empty discount shelves like last time. Good luck to anyone else looking today.

Honestly, (Never trust a Man/Woman) that start a statement with Honestly.
But, the moment you get BUT, walk away.
So ASDA deals l will go and find.Tesco'sX).

Ha haaa.

Read post #9, then read post #44. Both mine.

Then tell if I'm being serious.

On a serious note, its ridiculously hot for something that not many people have found... But im just jealous of any who have.

Barcode: 3 391891 989886

So, unless im missing something, this deal is garnering a massive amount of heat to say virtually nobody has reported being able to replicate the OPs purchase.

This is without doubt the proverbial Fake goose run.

My local asda said I need the barcode number of one bought from asda, for him to be able to check if there's one in an asda near me, please help!!

You couldn't run these games off the disc, differences between a bluray drive and hard drive are huge.

It would be nice if they digitally paired a disc with a console so you don't need the disc in the drive.

I may be being a tad stupid but it feels like you're answering a question that I haven't asked?

l hope reddragon105 don`t take it personal.:smile:
It`s just annoys me,take PS3 for instance, the graphic for me it`s acceptable and most game downloaded from.:man: some site, so l heard.
l mean for goodness sake Fifa 17 weighs in at 9.53GB on PS3, Xbox? nudging 40GB.
To be honest, prefers the PS3 version, less flaffing about.
l know tech and all that, but are we not suppose to be making it smaller and better.
l know they can if they are bothered.
Off topic,we were pushed to buy diesel car years ago, now some city are proposing banning diesel car altogether!

Faster read speeds doesn't mean a developer knows how to program efficiently, so take that up with EA. The Blu-Ray drives in the Xbox One and PS4 read at 6x, which is 27 MB/s. A slow, 5,400rpm hard drive will read at about 100 MB/s. People have installed SSDs, with read speeds of around 500 MB/s, in PS4s and found some games' loading times to be halved (from 30 to 15 seconds in some cases). Just imagine what those loading times would be like at Blu-Ray speeds.

Not sure what you're saying here. It's all digital information - you can't have a non-digital video game - but you can either buy them on discs or buy them digitally. Either way they need to be installed onto the hard drive because they can't be loaded from disc fast enough. If you're asking what is the point of disc/retail copies, well there's resale value, the fact that some people just like physical copies on their shelves and the fact that some people might have terrible internet connections so it's much easier for them to get the initial 40-50gb install from disc.

People who can't afford/don't want to add a larger hard drive, or don't have that many games. I'm primarily a PC gamer so I do have a lot of storage for games there, but that means I only use the consoles for exclusive games, which means 500gb is more than enough as it's only about 4-5 games per console. By the time anything else I want to play on them comes along I will have finished something that I can uninstall if I need to. If the Xbox One or PS4 was my primary platform, I would have bought a 1tb version or added a USB drive.


I know, that's why I only said you could do it with the PS4 (internally). :confused: But both consoles will let you install and run games from external USB 3.0 hard drives.



Okay, no, I didn't say they were cheap - that depends on the person. For someone who doesn't pay £40 for a game at launch and waits until they're £10 second hand, £60 for a 2tb drive might be a lot of money, so they will make do with installing/uninstalling/reinstalling as necessary. But to someone who can afford the latest releases every week, they can also afford to pick up a 2tb HD whenever they need more space.
As for the manufacturer - I didn't say they couldn't afford it, I said they're trying to make their console packages as cheap as possible to attract buyers. They might have started by saying 'We need to put at least a 1tb hard drive in these consoles because otherwise everyone is going to run out of space, but that means we'll have to charge £300,' and then they decided 'Actually, we'll also do a 500gb version because then we can charge just £250, which is a more appealing price and more people will buy it.' They'd rather have someone buy a console at £250 than not buy one at all because £300 is too expensive for them - and at least they've made it easy for the buyer to add more storage later.

True,how can l forget £99 LG V500, sadly now broken,and xbox/wii u clearance.

It almost sounds like you're holding reddragon105 personally responsible for the state of modern gaming :smile:
Battlefield is slow to load as it is, but imagine how much worse it'd be if we were stuck with having to load games from the disc (27MB/s from disc vs 130MB/s or so from HDD). Sony and MS did the right thing by setting the standard that all games had to fully install from disc, but at the same time probably should've gone straight for 1TB as the base spec from the start.

Your welcome, Asda can be hit and miss sometimes. Sometimes great deals and sometimes pants deals lol

Thanks for your response. I picked up MGSV: The Phantom Pain for £5, but other deals were duff. E.g. Battlefield Hardline for £15

Oh dear,
1.The point is read speed - current gen games aren't going to load quickly or run smoothly from an optical drive,

So that`s why it take God knows how long for Battlefield to load for start up on EA?

2.Hard drive read speeds are about 4x the speed of the Blu-Ray drives in the Xbox One and PS4. Also most games are going to get several large updates during their lifespan, which are obviously going to have to be stored and loaded from the HDD.

Are you kidding me?2017 and it needs to be stored on the hard drive, so what`s the point of digital.
On another note, not disparaging you, but are you old enough to remember the introduction of compact disc and how it was marketed to replace vinyl? Let me remind you, the most important thing about CD, we were told and it was marketed as due to scrathes on vinyl after years of usage, CD is so sophisticated that it will never scratches, we know how that turns out.

3.And, yes, 500gb isn't very much these days, but they're trying to make the consoles as cheaply as possible

LOL
4.if you just concentrate on 1-2 games at a time and delete them as you're finished with them.

Who does that?

5.(or you can easily replace the internal one in the PS4)

Can`t do with Xbox One S.

6. and a 2tb hard drive will cost you less than two new-ish games.

And defeats your argument, so hard drive that cheap, but the manufacturer cannot afford it.

That makes zero sense - firstly, don't confuse lots of DLC being released with a 'gimped' base game. The base game has about 50 hours of content, which is more than most games after DLC. Then there was an entire 'season' of DLC (an additional 50 hours of content) released for free to all owners of the game before they made the two paid-for expansion packs (with another 30 hours of content between them). Secondly, even if they did 'gimp' the base game, how would that pull in the pre-orders? The standard incentive is to offer more DLC, not less. Removing content only to add it later as free DLC would make people more likely to wait for a complete edition, such as this, rather than pre-ordering. It seems more like an effort to encourage people to keep coming back to the game to explore the additional content as it was released, and it's a move that CD Projekt Red have been repeatedly praised for.

Nice game but remember to also get a magnifying glass from asda so you can read the ridiculous small font even on large setting and on 50in tv. spoilt this for me really.

Dono about great developer, they did gimp the **** out of it from the original to pull in the pre-orders.

£15 is about what its worth after what they did.

Medallion's humming, great deal.

And Dave Gorman's :wink:​

The point is read speed - current gen games aren't going to load quickly or run smoothly from an optical drive. Hard drive read speeds are about 4x the speed of the Blu-Ray drives in the Xbox One and PS4. Also most games are going to get several large updates during their lifespan, which are obviously going to have to be stored and loaded from the HDD.
So just look at it as a case of the game needs to be on HDD but to play it you need to prove you own it, and that can either be a permanent digital license or the presence of a disc in the drive, which at least has the advantage of resale value or being able to borrow games from friends (but not both at the same time - that's how you lose friends!).

And, yes, 500gb isn't very much these days, but they're trying to make the consoles as cheaply as possible and you can easily live with a 500gb HD if you just concentrate on 1-2 games at a time and delete them as you're finished with them. But both Xbox One and PS4 do allow you to install and run games from external USB hard drives now (or you can easily replace the internal one in the PS4) and a 2tb hard drive will cost you less than two new-ish games.

Bought this GOTY edition digitally a couple of months ago during the sale.

60 + hours in and still nowhere near ending the game or DLC.
Amazing game and gets better the more you play.

bargain even at full RRP imo!

Can't wait to go to my local Asda and see they only have one dusty copy of Fifa 16 in stock.

Niced

Done! :laughing:

Went on the chase to find this but no luck, well I did get Dino Dini Soccer with T-Shirt for £5 but it was the last one in stock.

Can we rename the title to The witcher 3: "Wild Goose Hunt"?

Great game, replaying now but on PC. I loathe the Baron quests though, get that botchling away from me. :stuck_out_tongue:

I imagine this is slim pickings now as is just a repost of my previously posted deal...

'Wild Hunt' game title seems apt.

ah you're right I guess

Same as bloody Xbox, l mean what`s the point, apart from resale, how did the gaming community allows itself to be con into digital,when you still end up downloading to your hard drive, l mean if memory serves me, you buy pc game, download a few, and when you needs to play game, pls insert disc, but now every games worth it`s measure nudges installation 30/40GB, and Microsoft/PlayStation keeps pushing 500GB as standard drive and you want`s more?You got to pay Mega extra, and to punish us further, you can`t install your own drive, Why? cos we can`t, now IF.:disappointed: Donald Trump issues an Executive order prohibiting all this nonsense, l will be at Heathrow welcoming him.
PS, although l will have no family/friends afterwards, but hey what are families, when l`m thrashing through
Storm Of Steel and getting killed every time, and friends? Pah,l`ll make new ones online, like that 12 year old, who told me to get off as l`m ruining his stats.:smile:

Non-domesticated goose following...

"Catphrases" are brilliant...

A Bowl in a china shop...

From the Gecko..

two of my faves.

No it won't as ALL PS4 games are dumped to the HDD during the install.

Incredible game, and I paid for the DLC separately. This GOTY edition will also save your hard-drive space, buy it.

Damn, you beat me to it, also last deal, 2 years, 6 months ago

l got no life, hence feeding the troll.:smiley:
And M1LFHunter, seriously as your tag.:laughing:

I'd imagine this is a great game, for those with no life.

I managed to not like your comment on purpose. It's more like trying to find Han Solo's teeth in Rocky Horse Poo

If someone finds the golden goose tell me

Any other games on offer there?

£42 in my Asda. Well played

Amazing game, will be pushed to get better value for £15 from a game for quite some time me thinks

Picked this up in Asda Long Eaton earlier this week as well, crazy deal. Heat :smiley:

Bloody Asda deals, my local is 20 miles away :disappointed:
