    I got a text from my local Gamestop telling me about the midnight release and all that stuff and also if you trade in 3 games you get MW2 for €2.

    Its a lousy enough offer but if you have games you don't play and no money which both apply to me then its worth your while.

    Can't find a link

    If that's true..

    25 x 3 what you'd get for trading in, is €75.. already €10 more. You can bet gamestop would sell these €25 games for €45, they would make €135 for a €65 game.

    Uhhh. Also you would lose 3 games in the process.

    OH, and €2.

    Beats having to fish for the 60 euro its going to cost me.

    Any idea what these game titles can be, I hate the way they do that **** and give you no informaiton what so ever in relation to what games you could possibly trade in.

    Oh yes its accepted that they buy games for nothing and sell them for around €45 but if your strapped for cash why not.

    Games out in the last ~month or so will fetch a max of 30 usually :/

    Anything before that it's a major guess.

    The games are up on a list in most shops, its all new games or just collecters editions of older games that are valid for the three games and two euro deal.

    *ahem*

    MW2 is €65.

    The games assuming they are €25 would rack up €75, and then another €2.

    Can you do the math, or are you going to fall victim to gamestop again? *facepalm*

    There's no need to question my math, yes I will fall victim to Gamestop, they are games I never ever play so I might as well trade them in, as I stated of course they are making loads of people like me trading in but life goes etc.

    No hard feelings......
