    Got Uncharted for Christmas. Played it. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
    Would like to swap it for CoD4, Orange Box, Assassin's Creed or Ratchet & Clank?

    Anyone interested?

    Edit: I'm in Dublin but would post registered okay to anywhere in Republic.

    How about Warhawk ?

    Have Fight Night Round 3 if you're interested. Not what you're after I know, but worth asking.

    Nobody really checks there to be honest and it would be great if we could set up a swap thread and maybe sticky it...these games are so expensive and trade in value is rubbish...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 300 ✭✭Guinnessman


    Yea I have Assasins Creed if ya want to trade. Sent PM

    So true. I often see second hand games being sold for only a fiver less than new copies. It's a funny thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,035 ✭✭✭nedd


    how can game, or game stop or where ever charge that much for second hand games? and if you brought in a game to trade you would only get max €30 for it.

    doesnt seem right


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44 jaydeluxe


    Well that was nice and quick.
    I've accepted an offer of Assassin's Creed and hopefully will sort out the meet & swap very soon. Actually got two offers but in the interest of fairness went with the first to reply.

    Swapping > Trading In (by about 30 or 40 quid)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭muppetkiller


    Not to hijack your thread but I have WARHAWK guys to swap if anyone has Drakes Fortune,Fifa 08 or Assasins Creed ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,157 ✭✭✭Compton


    i have creed if ya want to swap?

    ive said it before i think we need a swapping thread exclusive to the ps3 forum

    i know theres one in adverts but at least in here you have a vague idea who youre swapping games with, moreso than faceless people on adverts

    if it wouldnt be against the rules i think we should have one

    I will tell you why. Idiots are paying the high prices for the second hand games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    its more to do with idiots accepting low prices for their games

    games 2 old for 1 new is a damn good offer tho

    But thats still €30ish each for games that they want €55+ for.

    1 for 1 is considerably better though...

    yeah but anyone who pays that needs their head examined

    ive no bother paying €50 in xtravision for a mint condition second hand game personally, but i wouldnt pay a cent more

    it is, but its not too often youll find someone willing to swap you a newly released game for a pretty old one

    for example on friday ill be trading in resistance and ratchet & clank for burnout paradise

    to me thats a pretty damn good deal, especially considering unreal is in the post which cost me €50, so im getting 2 brand new games for 50 quid and getting rid of 2 of my older games

    thats a comprimise im happy with personally


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Borneo Fnctn


    I vote sticky. Assuming it's not against the rules.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    Anyone interested in Sonic? :o

    i will give you a coster for that and you would be lucky to get it. Biggest pile of Poo of a game ever

    Indeed. I received it as a gift and played it for apprx. 7 mins. That was the most frustrating 7 mins of my life. how that game made it out is a disgrace to Sega and the original Sonic games.

    Exact same here, got it as a gift and it has never been played bar the first major disappointment

    Damn it, I remember when Sega were a class outfit.


    PS i ment Coaster not coster

    Damn! I thought you meant Costner........mind you, he's a steaming pile of poo lately too.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    what the world needs is a new 2d sonic game

    but one of absolutely MASSIVE size, with about 400 levels, each one interesting

    beautiful rendered graphics and innovative features

    bring back 2d!

    viva la revolution

    Why stop there! The ps3 is clearly the processing beast that could finally do justice to pong. ;)

    Ah no, i'd love a new 2d sonic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    the world needs more 2d games


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,656 ✭✭✭norrie rugger


    Seriously though, had the developers not seen Resistance/Warhawk/Uncharted (or their demos) before they released sonic?
