Craziness of Boxing Day "Sales" -- XBOX and Playstation 2 Additions

Hi gamers!

The weird thing I'd thought I'd never ever do is go along to a boxing day sale, but actually I bit the bullet today and rushed in. Took me and my friend 20 minutes to get to the other side of the mall to get into Gametraders and only to find people stuck in the store trying to move around, thankfully the XBOX and Playstation 2 games were at the front. My friend An!NE is currently collecting Playstation and Playstation 2 games and there were quite a few decent titles there, but of course with the price tag, luckily there was a boxing day sale for XBOX and Playstation 2 with games under $30. 5 for $50, there were only a few XBOX games that I wanted and so I picked up Project Gotham Racing, and MechAssault. Reason for MechAssault is that it's one of the exploitable titles for the "Mech Installer", so this game has quite a bit of history behind it and for $10 it's really good.

One of the games AniNE picked up was Kindom Hearts, with the current 5 for $50 this game qualified for the deal so we put that into the pile. As we finally found a place to sit down and get some food we opened all our games to check the condition and what not, he popped open Kindom Hearts to find a silver shiny disc...yes it was a platinum disc in a black label case thanks for the kick in the balls Game Traders!
After lunch we went back to exchange the game with Capcom Fighting Jam worked out the same price and after all this game isn't very common.


Sadly there wasn't that many games discounted at all, everything was mostly the same price as it was all year as  everyone says there are discounts every where I rarely saw any that were really worth the hassle of finding a parking spot and pushing through waves of people with body heated stores with no air conditioning.
