Anybody have a list of what they'll accept? Or a list of what they won't? I want to take advantage of this deal before it ends

It ended today. Twas supposed to end on the 10th, but EB pulled the plug early.

If you happened to grab one of the flyers with the 4/10 date on it and show it, the clerks have been instructed to take the trade-ins.

Crap, the EB around here is kind of a dick so I hope they honor it.

Well in that case, I used various combinations of the following games:

Spy Hunter 2 (Xbox)
NBA Street 2 (Xbox)
Sonic Mega Collection (GC)
Harvest Moon (PS2)
Jak & Daxter (PS2)
Mech Assault (Xbox)
Cubix (PS2)
Black & Bruised (PS2)
Pulse Racer (Xbox)
Destruction Derby Arenas (PS2)
Cubix (GC)
Quake 3 (PS2)
Enter the Matrix (PS2)
Charlie's Angels (GC)
Hitman Contracts (PS2)
Enter the Matrix (PS2)
Legion (PS2)
NFS Hot Pursuit 2 (PS2)
Wakeboarding Unleashed (Xbox)
Mafia (PS2)
Harry Potter (GC)
Moto GP 2 (PS2)
R: Racing Evolution (GC)
Cubix (GC)

Outlaw Golf: 9 More Holes (Xbox - no longer works)
Bombastic (PS2 - no longer works)

Right now the best trick seems to be buying the following games from EB and then trading them back in:

Egg Mania (PS2) - $5.99
Battle Engine Aquila (PS2) - new? - $5.99
Malice (PS2) - new? - $4.99
Aquaman (Xbox) - $5.99
Pulse Racer (Xbox) - new - $2.99
Robocop (Xbox) - new - $5

Gamerush has a stackable deal that beats this EB offer.

$20 off new PSP titles for two game trade-ins. Trade in three, get $5 extra for each game. I traded in The Sims(for GC, don't ask...), Beach Spikers, and Freedom Fighters, and got Twisted Metal: Head On and $5 extra in store credit.

Like EB, Blockbuster will soon realize they're getting the poo end of the stick. Jump on it now. Details here:

[Ristamar]

I fucking hate GameRush...




...because they aren't anywhere near my area. I hate them because I miss out on awesome deals. So until they arive, fuck 'em.

In the meantime, I'll continue screwing over EB and FYE on a regular basis.

This is why I continue to hate Fry's Electronics with a bitter passion.
