You can see why people dont buy games straight away now...i still do, but im trying to stop honestly.
I paid £35 for this i think and havent even tackled it yet and its now half price.

I have a Freddie Mercury console but basically use it as an extended demo pod. If the game is good I still buy it. I never pay full price though. There are plenty of deals and discounts about so there is no need to pay full price.

As of tomorrow (4/12/08) Fallout 3 will be on offer at £19.98
Friday will see Saints Row 2 going down to £19.98 also, aswell as the new Sonic Unleashed title.
These prices are BEFORE UK tax changes.
COD5 will most probably be going into the same offer, the week before christmas (not official, but i'd bet a bollock on it)
ALL of the above information is official, because I have sat pricing all the ----ing stickers on the games all day.
Hope this is good news for UK gamers :)

Also you can get "The Last Remnant" for £24.99 Brand New from gamestation.
I not likeing there 21 age identity thing I went to buy Resistance 2 today from gamestation guy seen me before and asks me for ID, so then I went to GAME they did the same, just think how much money games shop will lose out if they do this to everyone had no ID on me but I am 22.
In the end got Resistance 2 From HMV bit off topic but thought I would put that in the gamestation thread lol.

I had a similar thing with Fable 2 (game is a 15). Got asked for ID, went back for Mirror's Edge (also a 15) and having being served by the same person, he recognized me and didn't ask for ID.

Good prices, shame we at GAME don't do them that low, despite being the same company now!
We have to ID now if you appear under 21, infact it makes our job easier because you used to have to look 18 and we know what sort of problems that brings!
I've had to ID a few people recently, if they can't produce it, no sale. It flashes up on the till as well. I enjoy IDing the chavs anyway and the obniouxs ones, but rule of thumb if you look young now, bring ID.
Just like going to buy alcohol really.

You can't argue with a Think21 policy.

Its cool that so many good games are being sold 4 so much cheaper these days; Don't it just make you vex when you rush to get a game on release day or preorder only do see it 4 like £10 cheaper 2 weeks later, it makes me mad coz i've already got games i haven't touch yet or no where near completed ;(. I've basically pledge not to buy any more games untill about a month later but with Prince persia out tomorrow i may have to take that pledge and flush it into the thames lol.

Actually the same rules apply. Think 21 when trading games in. I had a chav come in, looked about 15 with GTA IV. Course I ID'd him, he wasn't old enough to buy the game, so he can't trade it in.
We would get fined and I would loose my job if I hadn't of done that, so even if you think you stupid fool I have the game so I'm 18, think again.

Supermarkets now have 'Think 25' generally. I get more embarrassed being ID'd in the supermarket than at the door to a club or at a bar and I'm not 20 yet. The repercussion's of selling to under-age though are too much and I guess some people look older than they are.
It does annoy me when I know the person ID'ing me, I think you went to school/college with me you idiot.

Well if that was the case then if you can't buy it, they can't sell it

I was in gamestation earlier. They still had the Fable and Fallout deals on. New Sonic was £19.99 as well (cheaper on the Wii).
I had to laugh though they had Fable 2 brand new at £19.99 or you could buy pre-owned for £32.99. Fallout was similarly priced for a 2nd hand copy.

I meant when they ID me and we're both nearly 20!
