Will EB Games accept these three games for WoW?
2004-11-27, 7:27 AM #1
These are the games.


Crash Bandacoot: The Wrath of Cortex (PS2)
Kingdom Hearts (PS2)
Dynasty Warriors 4 (PS2)


If need be, I can replace one with GTA: VC, but I don't really know about that one...

EDIT: All have their respective manuals and are in near perfect condition

I don't know. EB Games does have the 'trade in 3 older games for a new game' thingamabobber deal dohickey, but at the same time I must agree with the above poster.

If they do give you WoW it'll probably be an accursed copy. And registering it with Blizzard will unleash a horrible blight upon the world.

Yeah you won't get much towards your cause from your older games.

Er... They have a deal for new games (Or at least the one that I have) Where you trade in 3 next-gen console games for the one they are doing the sale for. They did it with Doom 3, Spiderman 2, HL2, a few others, and now WoW.

Somtimes they don't accept really crappy / old games.

I have nothing else that they'll accept. Besides, I've beaten it a bajillion times on both difficulties. I've also made gummi ships similar to the star wars ships. It gets boring after a while :P

Besides, the next one is coming out eventaully.

surely that should be

1) Sell old games on Ebay
2) Profit
3) Collect underpants...

When I worked there we generally gave somewhere in the region of £5-£15 for PS2 games. It depends how many used copies the store has, whether or not it's worth it to them. But we were never allowed to give prices over the phone, you need to show them in person, so they can check the quality of the disks. If they won't give you a high enough trade, just pay the extra.

I hate the way EB games doesn't let you trade in sports games to count towards anything... I have so many sports game... and they are so old... I want to get rid of them. WHAT THE HELL AM I GONNA DO WITH NHL 2002?
2004-11-27, 12:26 PM #13
Hahah I was just asking about that in the store and the dude specifically said that they weren't taking sports games anymore because they had 500 copies of NHL 2002

Update:


Haha, you all were wrong :)

I went there, said "I heard you could trade in 3 games for World of Warcraft" The guy looked over at the game, then looked at the three games I had with me and said "Yep of course."
Long story short, I got WoW for free with those games :D

Well it isn't actually free... if you do the math from what those games did cost you... you actually spent 2 to 3 times the amount of money to get WoW.
2004-11-27, 2:35 PM #17
Actually no

Kingdom Hearts: Christmas Present

GTA: VC : 20$ Canadian

Dynasty Warriors 4: 15$ canadian

***** :) It was 60$ Canadian for the game, but I got it for free because those games rocked back when I played them the first time. After beating them a bajillion times I got bored.

Just because it was a Christmas present doesn't mean it didn't cost someone money there big guy.
2004-11-27, 2:43 PM #19
no witnesses, no care in the world.
2004-11-27, 2:45 PM #20
Maybe it was a christmas present, but I got it last christmas, making it a couple monthes old, maybe more. So it'd only be around 30$

It was all about Pro Evo 2 in my store. We literally had more copies than we could fit on the shelves. It was ridiculous.
