Some of their games were 70-80 quid, and that was back in the early 90's. I think some may have even been as high as a 100.

And look what happened to it! Sunk without a trace

i went inti hmz the outher day and i got fight night round 4 for 23£ preownd and its only been out 4 weeks
i then looked at a new copy 44£ thats the problem i wont pay 40£ 4 a game no becos iv i wait a month and i get a preownd copy and save 20 £

Anybody want to translate? Hagman dude your posts are getting harder and harder to read, it really is not difficult to write messages using the correct grammar and punctuation.

Translation:

I walked into HMV the other day and was able to procure 'Fight Night Round 4' from the pre-owned section. This was a boon as it had only been out for about 4 weeks. Upon glancing in the direction of new releases, had i wanted to get it in pristine condition i would have had to pay up the princely sum of £44. I do believe it is worth the wait for a month and save about £20 and buy pre-owned.




Couldn't agree more, but i would go a step further and buy the damn thing online, it usually always works out even cheaper.

Makes sense

Games here in ireland were about €60-€70 brand new this time last year they have fallen in price thank F@#K

The other thing is some have add-ons you can download and that can cost £10

Good idea? One of the worst ideas in the world...

70 quid for a game is a joke!

I would never buy games from HMV or any high street store anyway, you can save ridiculous amounts of money by buying on the internet, or even one of the supermarkets.
