    Anyone know of anywhere doing X amount of xbox games trade in for new games?
    As in give us any 4 games and we'll give you a new game?

    I have a stack of games sitting there most of which i wont play again and thought a renovation would be in order only I have no spare cash right now!

    Anwhere between Newry and Dublin inclusive is where I'm lookin - I'm in Dundalk you see.

    the software zone at smiths is and GAME is doing a similar deal but you have to pay 99c

    of course the games have to be worth €15 or more before you can get your game

    Decided I'd chance xtra vision cos they are nearby (I was punished for my foolishness) I gave them 4 games, Still life - they never heard of it so couldn't trade it then offered me 18 quid off conker:live and reloaded for Pariah, Driv3r, and Chronicles of Riddick. Fair enough not great games (specifically Driv3r - bought prior to reading reviews) but I would have valued them higher than 18 quid...or am I being naive??

    In a way....Driver 3 would get you little more then a fiver trade in value most places. Pariah and Riddick however were worth more then that.

    You could have sold them second hand online for 15 a piece easily if not more. I'd say even Gamestop woulda roughly given you store credit of the following:

    6 for Driv3r
    12 for Riddick
    16/18 for Pariah

    If it's not too much trouble, could you list the games you have. Folk (myself included) might take a few off of your hands.

    you would get about 10 or less for driver 3. around 18 for pariah alone and around a tenner for chronicles of riddick in GAME. not exact prices but close enough.
