There are some shops in Akihabara with some superb sales on both hardware and software for the new year. I'm off out to buy a Panasonic Q - for all of £20 more than a normal GameCube would cost me in the UK

Have to say I had a quick look in the shops and didn't see too many bargains. The PS/2 is dropped what 20 yoyo's? Thats less than 10%. Most of the newer titles are still at pretty high prices. Some even seem to have gone up of thats possible. I'll be shopping on the net for my next game purchases. Their loss.

DiscoStu

no one seemed to listem to me earlier on this week but virgin are selling ps2s for 250 while everywhere else feels the need to sell em for 270(including the sony centre). it works out better because dixons/currys the only other place with a reasonalbe deal only stocks seriously crappy games to go with their deal.

[edit]i would sell my granny for a panasonic Q. anyone needs a granny? she makes bloody good roast potatoes(now i mean seriously good ones) and always has a supply of pringles in her cupoard [/edit]

Still not much of a sale is it?

Mills

I got Eternal Darkness in Xtra vision the other night, €45.

Epitaph

Question:
Before Christmas, why were Game selling Resident Evil (GameCube) for only 50 squid?

Is it because it's selling ****e due to it being an Aged 15+ game, or what?

Mills: Was ED 2nd hand or new, and which XtraVision? That's an excellent price for ED.

Retr0gamer

xtra-vision have 10-15 yoyos of lots of brand new games. Kingdom hearts was 50 and eternal darkness was 45 yoyos. Getting myself eternal darkness when I finish me exams.
