You are definitely better off flogging a game on eBay now as opposed to trading it in. I bought PES 2014 on the Xbox 360 on the day it came out; didn't like it so i thought I'd trade it in for FIFA 14. I paid £40 for it and they offered me £15.50 trade or £11.85 for cash two days later. I popped it on eBay instead and sold it for £35! I've always tried to support them as they are pretty essential to the declining high street particularly in the UK and for the personal service but now they are becoming increasingly crafty, untrustworthy and most of the people they employ are fucking clueless! I couldn't even get a Steam gift card for my friend the other month for this birthday because the moron serving didn't know how to do it on the till.

Nice! I've only had a small peek of the standalone but will hope to have a decent playthrough over the weekend.

I haven't been tubed once on PC which is a bizarre for a COD game . I'd happily be killed by a raving noob-tuber as opposed to a camper!

Is that the mod or standalone you're playing Harrison?

Well that's wrong for starters

Looks like even Diddums enjoyed it down Rileys! I bet Dave has never even visited this thread

Lost Planet 3 for £7.49 from £29.99

Really good to see it working well on PS4! Seems to be a bit more solid on the PC now which is a massive step considering how shocking it was for the first 10 weeks. Still not perfect but I'd happily see this standard maintained.

I think they were throwing in all the key games along with Knack (well they had to get rid of that somehow lol!) plus the Vita. They wouldn't even sell me a single unit because it 'would unbalance the stock' despite me preordering one and having it guaranteed in writing that it would be available before Christmas. I will write them a strongly worded email with an attachment of a picture of my middle finger

Basically I was in two minds as to whether I'd get a PS4 yesterday or just exchange my £20 pre-order for a gift card and get the machine at a later date. So I popped into GAME still undecided and wasn't entirely sure if they had any in stock. I wasn't notified despite them saying they would 1) guarantee a console before Christmas 2) send me a text/email to tell me that my pre-order was available. Anyway I spoke to the manager who informed me that they had some in stock but only bundles ranging from £649.99 to £799.99. I asked as to why my console-only order was not available and he couldn't give me a satisfactory answer. I also inquired as to why a shop of a company with an alleged cash-flow meltdown could stock such lavish bundles and have such a quantity available in-store. He couldn't answer that. By now, I was more than delighted to exchange my pre-order for a £20 gift voucher. This put him in quite a shitty mood. One of his colleagues informed me on the quiet that GAME had deliberately stocked high-value bundles to match the inflated prices currently available online through the likes of eBay. This method gives the customer a massive package when compared to the £500+ sellers on the internet want for just the console. I can understand this logic to some extent but I feel as if the company that I have supported for over 15 years has completely shafted me of their initial promise. The bundles are good when totted up individually but there is no way in hell I'd drop £650-£800 large across the counter. I wouldn't even pay that for a new PC in this climate. I am very disappointed in GAME's sly move to inflate their own prices through top-end packages to deter people away from the net sellers. The manager quoted he 'had loads in stock' but that is probably a number of customers's consoles that were supposed to be just single units and not bundles. Looks like I wasn't the only one that was screwed over a treat. I'm done with GAME now. I always support the high street retailer over the net for certain goods but this is a bit of a rotten trick to pull this time of the year. I wasn't notified and what I ordered wasn't correct either. They've pretty much used my money to buy in products that I didn't ask for. I have my gift card and I will take something off of them but that will ultimately be the last thing I purchase from this company.

Have you tried The Money Shop or Wonga? It's pretty good; all you do is borrow £20 and you can pay it off during the year. I think the total to be paid will be something like £27,328.66p but at least you'll have DayZ for Christmas I'd stick to the mod for the time being and if you have a bit of dosh floating around after new year, it's worth a punt even in this state. You're not missing out on too much at present though

In theory it should be good but when she runs, the physics aren't quite as perfected as I hoped but then again, this is the alpha. Can't wait to see the beta-bum!

I only saw this happen in hack videos posted online so it is most likely a god-mode hack or something but IW probably didn't want to admit their game had been hacked so they just said they fixed the 'exploit' lol!

Merry Christmas to everybody on this forum I've only been on here a couple of months but it has been a real blast with everyone! Thank you all for making me feel so welcome and I wish you all the best tomorrow and for the rest of the year. A big shout out to Dave for his work and dedication on the forum this year and to everyone else for their wonderful contributions.

Arma II Combined Operations has dropped to £3.39/Complete Collection £4.99 which is good if you're interested in getting the DayZ mod.

Was that an actual hack or just a ridiculous glitch?

I bought the Alpha standalone earlier and it's pretty polished compared to the mod but ropey at the same time. Kept losing connection and every time I select a male character, I spawn as a female with a rather large arse.

F1 2013 has dropped to £10.19 from £14.99 earlier and £29.99 yesterday!

Call of Duty Ghosts £26.79 State of Decay £7.49 Baldurs Gate Enhanced Edition £5.99 The Sims 3 £11.99 Rome II Total War £14.99 Rise of Venice £7.49 Borderlands 2 GOTY Edition is now sadly back up to £20 but may reduce again..

As usual, TV is utter wank this time of the year in the UK with repeats of The Bourne Identity (excellent film tho) and The Fugitive with perhaps The Sound of Music thrown in every other day for a fortnight. What's your favourite movies to watch this time of the year? For me; Home Alone 1&2 were utterly brilliant and bring back many memories. I am also partial to Die Hard this time of year but it's already been on 3 nights on the trot last week!

I have it unlocked and will probably give it a bash on the Operation Locker map. Is the UMP any good also? I've just unlocked that and it was pretty good on COD but this is Battlefield we're talking about...

I was looking forward to watching MOTD and I tried to avoid seeing the score but when I caught a glimpse at it after 75 minutes; I just followed the game online and it seemed really dour! Good excuse not to bother watching the highlights now. Last time I did that it was the Man Utd v Chelsea game and that was also 0-0 and bloody abysmal!

Borderlands 2 GOTY Edition just £9.99 now! Superb deal
