    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.

    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......
