The Cheapass Ebgames Po List

[quote name='Snake2715']jkam,

Two things... Cubix is available NEW at Blockbuster for $7.99 in my area. That has also been verified to work. So if you cant find it used it might be in the new section.

Secondly the TOYS R US games are pretty rare to come by now. That sale was two months ago or more are people still finding them?[/QUOTE]


Thanks Snake2715 but...

As per my original post I am only adding games that are $7 or less. Mainly because I feel that say on a normal 5 for 1 deal those games would total $40. If we go the 5 games for $7 that's $35. $15 off seems like a good enough deal to make it worthwhile.

As for the Toys R Us games I have found mostly clearance games with red tags or just normal markdowns not 90% off games. Then again I found an Onimusha 2 last week with a green tag.
 
Verified as of 4/7:

Xbox
Future Tactics ($3.99) at Gamestop

PS2
Cubix ($4.99) pre-owned at Blockbuster

Jkam,

I thought you said $7.99 or lower thats why I mentioned it.
 
Removed Aquaman. Someone mentioned a game called Powerdrome @ CC for $4.96 as being PO....can anyone confirm?

Yep, got Powerdrome for XB at CC tonight for $5. Then traded it in at EB, and yes, it's PO. The PS2 version should also be PO. Traded one in earlier in the 3-for-1 deal. And the PS2 version is $5 at CC as well. People also report finding Powerdrome on clearance for cheap at Target.

BTW, Aquaman garners $7.50 at FYE if you happen to get stuck with one like I did. At least I managed to make a couple of bucks off it.

Tried Future Tactics yesterday-- didn't work.

Also, YMMV-- but Hitman Contracts is 9.99 used at my local Blockbuster. Not a bad deal for the game and it's deinitely PO.

Just to clarify, which version of Future Tactics got rejected?

Confirmed that the following are still PO as of last night:

Hitman 2 (PS2)
Powerdrome (XB)
WTA Tennis (PS2)
Bad Boys (PS2)
Cubix (GC)
Metroid Prime (GC)

Traded in five of them on the 5-for-1 GTA PSP deal. Not as good as the 3-for-1 deal, which is now mostly dead, but since none of the above games cost me over $5, it's like getting GTA for $25. That still qualifies as a good deal in my book.

[quote name='Apossum']the PS2 version[/QUOTE]

AFAIK, the PS2 version is the only one that's POX. The GameCube and XB versions should work.

Found out yesteday that Disaster Report (PS2) is POX. It wasn't on the exclusion list. Dang.

Thanks added Powerdrome
 
4/17

All work:

SW KOTOR Xbox $5
GTA Vice City Xbox $7
I-Ninja Xbox $2
Crash Nitro Kart Xbox $4
NFSU PS2 $4

Jampack PS2 Vol. 11 is POX. It would help if everyone listed the normal trade in values after doing a trade in. The values are listed on the receipt that you're given after the transaction.
 
Posted in another thread but it belongs here:

Update - after we all got in on this latest round of trade-in deals, EB must have changed a lot of their PO titles to POX that people were using. Some examples of games that I tried to trade in today that used to be PO but are now POX:

PS2:
Auto Modellista
Malice
Powerdrome
Syphon Filter TOS

XB:
Powerdrome
Egg Mania
Aquaman

But oddly enough RC Revenge Pro for PS2 which I got for $2 at CC was PO. Weird!
 
some more pox games that used to work:
battle engine
disney pk
future tactics
freaky flyers
sky gunner
pulse racer
group s challenge
 
So, was anyone keeping an up-to-date POX list (presumably based off the last known exclusion list from the web site?). I know that the list is a bit old now. (I know that Disaster Report got POX'ed, but is the PS2 Hobbit POX now too?). What about SD Gundam Force: Showdown! ?

I'm glad that I decided to trade-in my Xbox copy of Powerdrome to EB first! At least I should be able to get rid of my PS2 copies through FYE.
 
I'm about to trade in

Conflict Desert Storm - PS2
Metal Arms Glitch in the Sytem - PS2
Frogger Beyond - PS2
The Cat in the Hat - PS2
Star Wars Bounty Hunter - PS2

My Best buy is juiced out of the $5 elgible titles, except for one last copy of Metal Arms I saw. I think I picked up the last Conflict Desert Storm. Last time they had a few copies of Cabela in the value game table, and hung above the PS2 games section, but its gone now. This'll probably be my last trade in 'till the next time Circuit City or TRU runs a crazy clearance sale.
 
Doh! I was hoping that the Future Tactics that was listed as not working was the PS2 version, but I just found out that the Xbox one is actually POX. I guess I'll take the $7.50 from FYE.
 
Because this topic needs to be bumped!


Still PO as of Friday June 24

Metroid Prime (comes with $20 Wavebird bundle at K-mart)

Pulse Racer (xbox) This was actually $2.99 new at eb back in April

These are $5 at Best Buy after the $5 off ps2/psp game coupon

Calbela Big..Game Hunter (?) $5 at Best Buy after coupon
Bad Boys (ps2)
Metal Arms (ps2)
NCAA March Madness 2005 (ps2)
 
We should keep this thread alive . . .

I did 4 games on Madden (this deal is good because you can do as few as you want)

Anyway

Midway AT Xbox (penny at CC)
Metal Arms ($5 ac BB)
Vexx (xbox) $5 at CC last year and I never got into it
Beyond Good and Evil PS2 . . . this surprised me because it was POX in the past . . . picked it up for a few bucks at TRU and had it on my tradelist for months

So, $15 becomes $40 in EB credit
 
I traded in: PS2 except last
Bad Boys ($5 ac at BB)
PsiOps ($5 ac at CC)
Siren ($5 ac at CC)
MOH Rising Xbox ($10 at FYE . . . even trade but through flipping . . . it gets complicated but I'm ahead)
