Um, we already saw your last thread about this. You really don't need to start another one.

I don't know why people say "Free". Sure, you don't actually spend any money on that game, but you are handing over five games that you have, at some point, spent money on.
Having said that, if you've got five games you don't want, it's definitely worth doing. :)

heck yeah its worth it. i handed over 4 old madden games that trade in for 3 bucks a piece or less. i got one shiny new madden game(that'll be worth the same in a year)lol

I don't have a Media Play nearby . . . but some folks are buying $20-25 worth of used games, taking them in and walking out with a $50 "new" release . . . that's pretty cool.

5 games for 1 usually isn't the greatest deal... :(

If I'm correct, MediaPlay is a Musicland company, right? Since Sam Goody (the only Musicland store in my city) is from the same company, are they also doing this deal? I don't recall them taking trade-ins.

I guess this is a big fat YMMV since, at every Media Play I've ever been to, the games you trade have to be ones that they sell new for 19.99 and up. And I don't believe this applies to ANY game. It has to be 49.99 or less (sorry, keep dreaming about that Steel Batallion). Also, some Media Plays will not take PS1 games, and some have been known to exclude certain new releases.

there limitations arent written in stone. the guy i dealt with took my ps1 games(new and still in package) and also my madden games which are worthless for ps2. booyah

The hastings deal has you trade in xbox games for an xbox game or ps2 games for a ps2 one, maybe even ps1 games for a ps1 not sure on that.
I traded in 4 crappy games today for Fable so I'm pretty happy with that. I was suprised they even took Tony Hawk 2x though they wouldn't take Fever 2003 they said they don't take old sports titles but that appears to be about all they don't take.

It was mentioned that this was on tuesdays (at Media Play)
Does it have to be a new release that you're trading for, or any new game?
