Order GTA IV, get 1000 MS Points News
Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 News by Ellie Gibson
HMV is offering free stuff to anyone pre-ordering Grand Theft Auto IV on Xbox 360 from its online store.
Take up the offer and you'll get 1000 Microsoft Points, equivalent to GBP 8.50 / EUR 12, plus a book of vouchers "giving you over GBP 130 worth of savings".
"If there's a better deal out there, we haven't seen it," said HMV executive Duncan La Barre.
True, GAME is only offering 500 Microsoft Points when you pre-order. However, that also applies if you're reserving the Special Edition - while HMV's offer is only good for the vanilla version. Both shops want GBP 39.99 for the vanilla.
Amazon isn't offering any free points at all, but does appear to be selling the game for a lower price than anyone else - GBP 34.99.
Buy the game for GBP 39.99 at Play.com and you'll get a pound off the strategy guide. Good one.
Grand Theft Auto IV is being released for PS3 and Xbox 360 on April 29th.

Mind you, Game offer 11% cashback on the price ex. VAT on Quidco so you can save yourself £3.75, whereas HMV only give you 5% off your £39.99 which is £2. Depends whether you'd rather have the MS points from HMV, the extra cashback from Game or just plain cheaper from Amazon!

@neilka: I've pre-ordered from HMV a few times and always got the game on release day.

im steering clear of these guys with special offers as i just have a feeling that it means they will get a lot more orders, so then there is perhaps less chance of getting your game on release day. not that i will anyway, i'm ordering from gameplay to munich, but at least i'll get it a few days after release as opposed to some of these other places like HMV where i'd be lucky to get it a week later.

That'd be because Gamestation and Game are the same company these days.

I ordered mine from Game for £34.99 a year ago, with 11% quidco, 500 MS points, £1.75 worth of reward card points earned.
Cheapest by far. |

I got the special edition version coming from Game for £44.99 (£5 voucher) with 4 free gamer pics and 500 free Microsoft points! I pre-ordered about a year ago when game thought the price of the special edition was going to be £50! Plus it will likely come the day before release day. I think I got the best deal of anyone... ;)
BTW to those cancelling orders from Game to order with HMV - don't expect it to turn up until Wednesday or Thursday of the following week...

Just cancelled GTA4 preorder with Gameplay and ordered with HMV instead, can't miss out on 1000 free points. That pays for the Legendary Map Pack for Halo 3, thank you EGamer for letting me know, otherwise I never would have found out.

Seems there is a lot of GAME fan boys in here! You could just pre-order GTA in store at HMV and get you 1000 points when you pick the game up. Instore price will be around £39.99 or less, plus you get the points, don't have to stick any more down to pre-order, get 10% off if your a student. Why bother ordering online when most store will open early on release day and your get to pick it up hours before the postie pops it through your door. You'll even get some fresh air before being permentantly stuck to your tv set for the rest of the day.

I had Vegas 2 preordered with HMV, for their clan pack offer ... Of course it hasnt arrived today, so not only do I have no game, but neither do 3 rather annoyed friends, who wont get their game till maybe Tuesday or Wednesday ! It didnt help, that hmv's despatched emails lie to you ... my email said it was despatched Tuesday, when i called them today, they said it was despatched Wednesday, and the email that says "its on its way" and its "in the post" was to inform me it was ready to be posted.
I cancelled my game order and preordered with hmv, then this afternoon, cancelled the hmv order, game have always delivered a game to me the day before release. For the sake of 500 points, i think ill get it from game on release, instead of whenever hmv bother to send it. I wont be ordering with hmv again, think i'll stick to ordering from game/play |

HMV are selling the special edition for £59.99 instead of £69.99. That's better than 1000 points.
