best place to buy cheap xbox 360 games
Hi All, I'm getting my youngster an xbox for Christmas, I understand that I can't get anything other than ntsc-j games for it, so buying stuff from UK/US is out of the question in regards to second hand stuff!
I really want to get a few older games cheap and I know that people like to sell their stuff here for $1 less than they bought it for 2 years ago, so I feel unlikely to find anything on ebay or gumtree.
Any ideas of any good second hand games shops?

I have not yet bought it, so it's not chipped and I don't really want to open it up and solder inside it before my little ones play on it!
Otherwise, yes, it's far cheaper as you simply download and burn to disc... cost of DVD+r's is very reasonable at the moment.
Any idea where I can get it chipped?

Just get the ones that are already chipped in. No need to worry about soldering. Just ask the seller if the unit is chipped to play pirated discs.nutnut wrote:I have not yet bought it, so it's not chipped and I don't really want to open it up and solder inside it before my little ones play on it!

Pretty much the only thing out of the ordinary that happens is the mod chip itself goes bad (or more accurately, a solder joint usually breaks free). Outside the ordinary for Xbox360s of course. I'm close friends with a 'career criminal'nutnut wrote:Hmmm, I am just a little concerned of the quality of the unit if I buy it from someone who is basically a career criminal, I'd rather buy it from a corporation that I can return to if anything goes wrong.
I shall ponder this.

Just thought of another place, though I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post the name of the shop here, it's located in the Far East Shopping Centre. If you google "games far east shopping centre" the first result will be their website where they have a price list of all the pre-owned games they have in stock.
