Um, the values are posted in the OP of this thread and, specifically for the Blockbuster games, in the second post of the Blockbuster thread. It couldn't get much easier .

As for the preorders, yeah, I've had a few clerks push me for preorders (though some, much to my releif, don't even mention it). I just tell them there's nothing coming out any time soon I'm interested in and I'm saving up for next Fall's big releases (which is far enough out you can't preorder them yet).

Though there are actually a few things for the DS I will probably preorder - just to be sure I can get sealed copies and not the gutted ones they'll have if I wait till after release. Thing is, I still have preorders left over from last summer that I'd rather switch vs making new ones.

Bioshock has a current quote on the 1st page of $8, Bully:SE is $10 and GTAIV 360 is $9.

Oops! Sorry, I'm fail. Thanks!

I didn't trade any games today but I did manage to find a copy of Eternal Darkness finally!

TIV's for 1/6 to GS:


Battle of the Bands - $5


Bully - $10


GTA - $11


Metal Slug Anthology - $8.25

I think the Metal slug is the only that hasn't been reported.

new 1/6 TIVs before promo

Viva Pinata 6.00
Halo 3 16.00
Battlefield Bad Company 7.00

glad I got in on the extra $5 per wii game last week.

only one that differed from the list was

We Love Golf (Wii) -$11 TIV.

not bad considering i bought it for $10 on amazon as filler.

however i think it's probably a safe bet on at least fear files... considering i've flipped copies of it for about a half a year at that tiv

Hey, where are the CAGs screaming that we're ripping off GS by selling them games for more than we paid for them?

Since they lowered it to $10 from $15 I'll do the eBay route instead.

Disappointing.

Updated and also put the information from GS.com about the trade deal. Looks like games with a value of $1 and less are excluded.

heh, so glad college hoop 2k7 was $1.50. I had no idea where to dump it!

Here is what I got yesterday (1/6) for TIV


Conflict: Denied Ops - $7 (not in OP)
F.E.A.R. Files - $7 (same)
Avatar - $5 (same value new date)
GTA IV - $9 (same)


Lost: via Domus - $7 (same)

Just to confirm some of the BBV titles today:


Table Tennis $8
Spyro $5
Ninja Reflex $5
Meet the Robinsons $5


Prince Caspian $4 (for IO?)

Last couple of times it starts at Trade 3 for an extra $10 then changes to Trade 2 for an extra $10 after a couple of weeks, I recall.

Normally started as Trade 3 get $15, then would go to 2 get $10. This is a different beast.

GS Base TiVs 1/7:

Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2 (Wii) - $4.00
MLB 2K8 (Wii) - $8.00
Naruto Path of the Ninja (DS) - $3.00
AMF Bowling Pinbusters (DS) - $4.00
