	where are you returning "didn't like it" games to? I know most major retailers won't take a game back unless it is defective and you are exchanging for the exact same title. This is all because of the copyright laws and whatnot (b/c of the goons that buy games, copy them, then try to return them). Anyway, I have ghostbusters for ps3 coming on gamefly next. Tamara wants it for the Wii...which is actually getting better reviews from what I've seen, but I want to play the hd pretty version first. Got 3 360 games in the mail today. I saw that buy 2 get 1 offer thru wal-mart.com and jumped on it. I got Mass Effect, Bad Company, and Gears of War. Been wanting to play Gears forever, just never have picked it up. Its still $30 at wal-mart and best buy, so it was a good deal getting it free by buying 2 $20 games. Played Rainbow Six Vegas for the first time yesterday. That game is effin sweet. Kinda hard, but sweet. -----signature----- "You're insane!" The man's answering laugh was deep and long and bright, full of joy and freedom. "No. I am Teh Ganner." "I am a Pooh Bear...

	i buy all of my games at eb and game stop. same company. their policy on used games is if you dont like it you can return it within 7 days. when i was returning the 3 games i also brought rainbow 6 vegas1 and said i didnt need it since i beat the second one. should have kept my yap shut. i love using the snake cam and lining up targets at one door, then moving to another to watch the carnage. i wish there were more squad based games. bad company is kind of like that but you dont have the same control. thats the only battlefield game i have ever played gears was on sale at game stop last week for $15. good game! ghostbusters is fun. get a bit repetitive but its still fun. one review i read said that the in game graphics dont match with the cut scenes and bill murry phoned it in but i have to totally disagree with that. the cut scenes blend great with the game and the VO is hilarious -----signature----- PACKAGED IN A HANDY POCKET-SIZED FORMAT http://www.darthhair.com/ http://www.blockleash.com/ i would loose my head if it wasnt firmly lodged in my ass sometimes you have to eat allot of crap to make it a meal

	darth_hair posted: gears was on sale at game stop last week for $15. good game! gamestop here doesn't have any new copies and all the used ones were $20. I try to get new when I can so I don't have to worry about getting to a certain spot and locking up b/c of a scratched disk. Unless it's a sweet deal, of course. Got Ratchet & Clank Tools of Destruction for $40...$20 cheaper and it works fine. Just depends on how much I want the game and how good the discount is. -----signature----- "You're insane!"

	Cory, I just signed up dh for gamefly. I just saw the "refer a friend and get $20 thing" we put that a friend referred us, can you find out if there is any way to get you that credit????? We are doing 1 game at a time right now to see how it goes. There are a ton of games coming out starting Sept to Dec that dh wants, since we are not that rich, he had to do something???? Have you done the buy it now or trade in feature on gamefly? And what do you mean Walmart buy 2 get 1 free, do you need a code or is the sale over? And if they ever have a deal like that & you don't tell us........ -----signature----- http://www.blockleash.com/ (\__/) (='.'=) This is bunny.

	I think you have to enter the referral thing as you are signing up, so it's probably too late for that. It is a really cool setup for playing as many games as you want without going broke trying to buy them all. The keep it thing is pretty cool, especially if you get a newly released game because you essentially pay $10 less for a new game. Otherwise it just depends on the condition of the disk whether its worth it to buy it. Its sort of like Netflix where usually you'll get a disk that is fine to play all the way through, but occasionally you'll get one that looks like someone took sandpaper to it. That's only happened to me once though. It does have its problems, but nothing major. It is hard to get a new release as soon as it comes out sometimes. You have to have nothing else in your queue except that game by the time it comes out, and nothing at home (if you're on 1-game plan). It's usually not that much of a problem, I got Fallout 3 and Killzone 2 as soon as they were released with no problem, but for some reason they still haven't sent me Ghostbusters and I put the PS3 and Wii versions both on there. So yeah, like anything, it does have things about it I don't like, but overall it is pretty cool. I have never done the trade-in through them, though, I usually just go to gamestop for that. Here is the link for that buy 2 get 1 from walmart.com. There are only 7 titles to choose from, but I hadn't played any of them yet and they're all good ones. Sorry I didn't tell you about it, it was advertised on the Spotlight section in the XBox menu... -----signature----- "You're insane!"

	Thanks for the info, dh has all the EA games he wants from that list. He just got his first game yesterday, if it takes 4 days to get each game I think we may have to upgrade to 2 at a time??? -----signature----- http://www.blockleash.com/ (\__/) (='.'=) This is bunny.

	got Fallout3:point lookout played over 2 hours of it and still not down with it... not to bad in my veiw, hunting redneck mutatans is fun on it and new gouls and some new weapons, not to bad of a DLC for fallout in my veiw (better than the last few...) -----signature----- If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it. Claymore mines are not filled with yummy candy, and it is wrong to tell new soldiers that they are.

	Picked up Tiger Woods 10 on Wii for my dad...and decided it sounded so fun I wanted a copy myself, so I got one, lol. I've been reading really good reviews for it, and I'm looking forward to playing Frisbee Golf. The motionplus thing looks pretty sweet and I can't wait to try it out. The live weather thing sounds cool too, as well as playing against the pros in major tournements based on their live stats. -----signature----- "You're insane!"

The PC version is very different I think from the PS1 and xbox.....its better. And the handheld systems are Sims games but not the same either.....I know weird. -----signature----- "It has electrolytes." (\__/) (='.'=) (")_(") Nipple stickers anyone??
