that's a pretty detailed review of the site...thanks.[/quote]
eh... It's slightly more streamlined then-
It takes entirely too long to find games that are actually available, let alone games that are available and I'd like.
From everyone else's experience, it's not uncommon for orders to be 'cancelled' and for games not to be sent.
Top that off with a seemingly capricious point value system. Barnyard for the GBA is about the same as Phoenix Wright for the DS.
A crap movie licence game == A game sold out/back ordered 90% of the time.
Tell me that if I offered you Ant Bully for Shadow of The Collossus, you wouldn't giggle your ass off?
And once the beta is over, you have to pay $2 for the privilege for trading Katamary Damancy and Pikmin 2 for whatever new Pixar game is out.
"Wait a minute!" You may be thinking... "I'm not trading Katamary and Pikmin 2 for 'The Bravest Lil' Onion Tree Bowl Story'! I'm trading it for Oblivion for the 360, ass!"
As far as the site is concerned, random suck game is worth as much as Oblivion. If the good games and the sucky games are worth the same amount... Soon the good games go, and the sucky games remain.
And you'll be paying $2 for it. So, yeah, pardon me if I don't want to start trading my good games to accumulate some magical 'point' number with no value outside of a system that could easily just become choked with the offal of the game industry.
"...as of now i'd be happy just getting a game instead of a cancellation."
Sounds like you're enjoying the site thus far.
Feline Aids, yo. Feline Aids.
