Special Reserve will be selling Game Cubes at £159.99.

There was speculation in the trade press that they could be as high as £179.99. The trade price has been set in Euro's not £Sterling and therefore prices could fluctuate in the UK.

That's a damn good price, considering the cost of the PS2 when it first launched. Its probably just me being slow, but which (if any) peripherals/games will be released with it? I also heard that for £400, you can get 6 games, 2 controllers, a memory card and the console - is that true?

Cheers.

Is this your official price? It's not gonna change is it? If it stays like that, then it's a good price to pay

I had a feeling we wouldn't get the equivalent price in pounds that the rest of Europe gets in euros.

I was going to post this a few days ago, but I thought I'd wait and see, lest I be proved a fool ;)

As it was, I can say "I almost told you so, but didn't"


Well, I think I can still afford that hefty £10 increase. I'll still be getting one, and almost certainly from SR.

Remember when you pre-ordered PS2's, you got free stuff: "PS2 DVD remote..." and so on?

Anything with that here? Don't worry if not, I don't think anyone would really mind.

£159.99 is the best price you will find, SR are the best and so is Tony...
