Yes, it's been a long time since I played it, nearly years now, but I really enjoyed it. It was only available on PS2 and perhaps PC, not quite sure, but wasn't released on XBOX. I played Deus Ex 2 Invisible War on PC, wasn't nearly as good as number one. Last year Deus Ex 3 was released and I really enjoyed that game, at least it was also available on XBOX. Finished it once and then re started to try and do it non lethal

I need to finish the third Deus Ex. I got it for Christmas and I haven't had a tone of time to play it recently. Right now, I think I'm going to work on finishing Mass Effect 3 (which might not be my favorite game but I think the trilogy is definitely my favorite series) and Resistance for PS3.

I haven't played my XBOX for a few months now, too busy doing other stuff - but I did buy a new tv to put in my computer room specifically for the Kinect - so I really should get back into it.

I just ordered another copy of Final Fantasy 8 on eBay this week.

That's 9 physical copies of this game I've now owned in my lifetime.

<sigh> note to self: DO NOT trade this game again !!!!

I actually saw a copy of FF8 that I traded into GameTraders yesterday whilst in the shop.

I got it new for $25, traded it for $30 and saw it being sold for $100.

Luckily I picked my latest mint copy up off eBay for $35.

I think I came out ahead ??? >< sigh

That is a massive mark up at GameTraders. I usually get mine from EB Games now, they had a two for one sale not long ago.

GameTraders are great for retro/hard to find games, but their trade in price is rubbish.

EB (Australian branch of GameStop) is rubbish now too imo, althought their 7 day return policy is a draw-card if you're unsure on whether or not you'll like a game.

I've found JB Hi-Fi to be best for low price on new-release and they have pretty good trade in prices.

Biggest hassle is EB and JB won't trade in games imported from UK.

Yet ironically, some new games I have bought from JB/EB that are new and sealed have our [MA] label on the cover then on the disc has the triangle with 18 pegi on it so was a UK version.

I'm from the US, but I might be in the minority.
I used to play L4D with a girl from Australia and she was a blast to play with so you all hold a special place in my heart

Oh how sweet

It's just weird that there are so many Aussies on here seeing as we have way less people that a lot of other countries

I'm US too.

Hubby and I go to Game Stop quite a bit. But their good games are really expensive, or the cheap ones suck.
