Cant remember supermarkets doing any deals for FIFA 11. Where as FIFA 10 was £25. :cool:

ShopTo is cheapest I can find for FIFA 12 at £37.85.

Yeah, 11 never had any supermarket deals :(

Well, good ones anyway. Think Tesco did '£25 with any other Top 10 game', but as the other top 10 games were rubbish at the time there was no point. :ha:

On the ASDA website it says £42 and you can also get £4 off on that with a code that is on the ASDA website, but the lady in store said that the price will go down anyway.

£35 at Asda (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/320193/fifa-12-for-pound35-at-asda-online/)


FIFA 12 gets its first competitive price today as Asda offers the Special Edition for a very pleasing £35 straight up.

ZeRo

Special edition one :eek: the one with gold packs and stuff?

Jas

I assume so.


FIFA 12 Special Edition

Pre-order FIFA 12 and receive 18 Gold packs (3 packs per month for 6 months) to build your dream club in FIFA 12 Ultimate Team.

The 'Ultimate Edition' GAME sells gives you 24 gold packs.

The special edition is under £40 at Shopto.net. £39.85 if i remember rightly. That's the one i went for.

£35 at Asda (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/320193/fifa-12-for-pound35-at-asda-online/)

Since I pre ordered at £42 it hasn't showed up in my ordered items so I have pre ordered again today from ASDA again. I hope the bill isn't £75 :)

£35 at Asda for an online price is a great deal.

I'll get mine from there I think.

NikE
27 September 2011, 12:23 PM
I scrapped my shopto order last night too and went for the asda one. didn't realise it was £35 for the special edition. Bargain!

dazzie
27 September 2011, 12:45 PM
Dammit.

Wish I had the cash and not credit at HMV for that price.

I'd have sold the UT packs to you mugs :D

Ry3
27 September 2011, 01:42 PM

Have a sneaking feeling that i won't even get it Friday! My postal service has been crap the past year.

Jake

Anybody know what the status of an order ''On backorder'' means?

Jas
27 September 2011, 04:05 PM
Asda entertainment are owned by The Hut? so delivery should be fairly fast.

I will be grateful if it comes Friday so I can play all weekend then, I am rotting it the weekend :D

Ry3

In some ways I hope mine doesn't come until Friday so I can make the most of this Season Ticket release. :D

ZeRo
27 September 2011, 05:45 PM
I can see it turning up Saturday :(

Ry3
27 September 2011, 08:43 PM
:'(

Have you ordered from Asda as well then?

ZeRo
27 September 2011, 08:49 PM
Nope ... for the above reason... £35 is a steal for special edition... I just wanted to walk into Tescos and pick it up normally for £35 like I did last year...

Ry3
27 September 2011, 08:55 PM
Yeah, I picked up FIFA 10 and 11 at midnight in Tesco. Was good fun. :D I think FIFA 10 was £25. :eek: Why I happily got it on both PS3 and 360. :ha:

Hopefully Asda don't fail.

Growler
27 September 2011, 09:04 PM
I work on Music and Video at Asda so as soon as I find out what the price is for the standard and Special Edition's I can let you guys know ;)

EDIT: It'll come in tomorrow so i'll check the price then. Might go up or down from tomorrow though dependant on Tesco etc.

Ry3
27 September 2011, 09:07 PM
Nice one Growler! Thanks a lot man. (y)

Jake
27 September 2011, 09:09 PM
Growler, do you know/will you be able to find out when they are dispatched - I pre ordered mine yesterday if that helps.

Growler
27 September 2011, 09:09 PM
Rye Hey, it's all about funding my bonus at the end of the day :ha: :D

EDIT: iBrummy I only work in a store not for the site so i've no idea really sorry.

Jake
27 September 2011, 09:12 PM
Thanks anyway Growler, so they won't be delivered to the store then dispatched from there? And do you now if I will pay a lower price because I pre-ordered if the price of Special Edition goes down? Sorry for the questions. :D

iBrummy

They won't be delivered from the store the website has a different setup to stores so yours should just come through the mail like from Amazon, Play etc. If you paid £35 for the Special Edition it probably won't come down in price any lower than that. But if it does you should get the difference back and pay the lower price.

I'm almost certain it won't come any lower anyway :p

Tbh I know as much as anyone else about prices etc. at this stage. They deliberately keep us in the dark :ha:

Jake
27 September 2011, 09:42 PM
Haha, thanks Growler :D

Ry3
29 September 2011, 10:04 AM
Mine wasn't delivered when I left the house for work. Doubt it will come today.

You not get yours from GAME today Jas?

Jake
29 September 2011, 10:05 AM
Mine hasn't come yet, the postman hasn't come yet, but I don't expect it to come until tomorrow anyway.

Nope. Andy will not be pleased.

Just to let you guys know I was in work yesterday and FIFA came in on the delivery. I even had my hands all over my lovely PS3 copy :D

The bad news is that they are still scanning at full price :(

I'm not in today so I can't see if the price has gone down before it gets released tomorrow. Special Edition i'm almost certain won't go blow the £39.97 price it's at now. As for the normal edition, I have no idea unfortunately. Going off past years it'll be anything between £25 and £30 but I wouldn't be surprised if it was over £30 this year.

If I find out anymore i'll let you guys know :). Sorry I can't be more help

Ry3
29 September 2011, 12:37 PM
You've already been a great help Growler. Thanks a lot, much appreciated. (y)

Looks like their £35 offer for the special edition is an online pre-order deal only.

ZeRo
29 September 2011, 03:21 PM
I wish I had preordered mine from asda.... looks easily like the best deal....

So you didnt get a dispatched email either then rye? I've not had one yet and still didn't get the game today :( just stood in a queue with my buddy at tesco and fought the urge to buy it. Better come tomorrow morning!

Ry3
30 September 2011, 02:05 AM
Yeah I got it today already (thursday) :D Never a dispatch email though.

When I got home I didn't realise it was down by the front door mat. Postman obviously hadn't come by the time I left the house in the morning (9:50).

So a bit of luck. :cool: But great service from Asda. Hopefully you get yours tomorrow NikE. (y)
