    Is the list of games applicable to the "Trade 2 get a new game for €9.99" the same as the one for the "Trade 5 for €90 credit"? or is there even a list for the first offer? :confused::confused:

    Here are the two deals...

    Big thanks to the OP.

    Saw this thread today, so popped up to my nearest shop to trade in 7 games.

    Got €90 for 5 of them and Crysis 3 only cost €5.49 with the other two trade ins!

    So all in about €140 for all 7. Only one game was particularly new :

    Far Cry and Mass Effect 3 for Crysis

    Black ops
    Red Dead Redemption
    Arkham City
    Assasins Creed: Revelations
    Sleeping Dogs
    got €90 for them!

    Cheers again!

    Working off the assumption that there will be no extension of the 5/€90 deal, tomorrow (Monday) is the last day....

    I have a nice little pile of 10 on my hall table, ready to go.

    I went upto Stephens green with prince of persia trilogy, binary domain, assassins creed revelations, deadly premonition and 007 blood stone and was told the deal had ended yesterday. I showed the lady the offer on my phone (clearly stating 4th march) and she then took them in and gave me my 90e credit and said they would have ordinarily come to 36. No sign of this deal being extended like the 2 games plus 9.99 offer.

    Just traded 13 old-ish games (mainly 3DS and a few 360). €254 -- not a bad days work. He did it in batches (5 + 5 + 3). One of the bundles had a greater trade in value than €90, so that was added to the total. One of the other bundles had a trade-in value of just over €30! Not bad to get €90 out of that....

    Thats Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite, Castlevania 3DS, Luigis Mansion 2 and Fire Emblem Awakenings pretty much covered.

    Oh well, decided to go in a get the new list and it looks pretty pointless trying to shop around for cheap games.

    I probably have over 5 on that list but I don't want to trade any of them.

    This deal has just reminded me further of how much I miss HMV :(

    Odds are it will be extended, but there is a huge chance most of the decent/older games (the ones that most people in this thread traded in) will be removed from the list.
