i dont know if you'v heard but there is a new game store trying to be better than ebgames.it called "Game" i checked out a 'Game' store and yes; they do have better deals on some products but ebgames has been in my life for 10 years. im not just gonna go to a new game store.

please tell me what store you prefer, EBGames, Game or JB hifi, and why.

Do u live near a shopping centre called Watergardens coz I do and the recently built Game there and I have the same problem. Heres my quote:

EB Games: They are good and have great deals but i agree with threebands, they never have the good stock of games.

JB HiFi: These guy have a good stock and great prices but sometimes their deals dont include the game you want to buy.

Game: They also have great pries and the rewards thing but like EB, they sometimes never have the games you want.

fro a dedicated game store EB sucks like common thats all you guys are seeling serious its like you should be able to get some pretty good prices but nup they just generally suck and always jewing people.
Game is ok, good to see some competiton but the best would have to JB hi-fi normally best prices for games systems or accesroies

JB has pretty good prices but unfortunately there isn't really one near me

EB don't have that great prices, especilly for a gaming store, but sometimes their sales are pretty good (eg. 50% off, or 2 for $50)

never been to game, don't know if there is one near me...

Big W also have some good deals on games.

Lol, that's possibly the crumbiest thing i've read all day. You mean that they've been taking your money for 10 years, so you think why not continue giving them your money?

Just look for the best deals mate, eventually EB will have to drop prices etc, when this new Game store comes to town. Business' competing is EXACTLY what the consumer needs.

Although i wouldn't be suprised if EB stick up stores right next to these ones, just to cheat em out of the market. Just like supermarkets do.

K then, now as soon as they have deals like that for their games, then I'll be interested.

'Cause I never was interested in watching when I could be playing, like almost all PS3 and 360 players think and do.

Personally, I reckon EB has been in my face for awhile, and the service at the GAME I go to is cool, not that many would care. But I know I do.

I used to loved JB 'cause I found that they always had the games cheap first, but now it's llike that everywhere, so I've moved on.

Neither. You should buy all of your gaming software and hardware from two places ONLY:

JB Hi-Fi
DVD Crave (online - www.dvdcrave.com)

And trade-in is a scam. Do not trade your games in, even at JB Hi-Fi. Create an eBay account and get rid of your games that way.

PSP games should have dropped way more than they have anyway, it's over 2 years old! Agree?

yes! I sooo agree with you. I would be getting so much more out of my psp if the games were cheaper!

I would actually be able to afford to buy some stuff to play on it!

I also believe that is one of the reasons more and more people are turning to illegal ways of getting their gaming fix.

I was recently converted to JB for games over EB.
But all in all I think Ebay has way better deals. I got metal gear solid PO for $36 brand new. Absolutely everywhere else sells it for about $80 and that's IF they even have the game, for some reason it's really hard to find.

but the problem with ebay is waiting for it to arrive (that's if it arrives at all), hoping you don't get stuck in a bidding war and then actually FINDING what you want

I don't bid I buy it off of a business, people that have a few thousand sales and over 90% positive feedback. That way you can be pretty sure it will show up. Though I will add I did get that fake memory stick....but it was only $20.
Packages are so exciting when they arrive in the mail.
