    Dang... lots of nice 100 point games. Not many good PC platformers, but then again there aren't very many good platformers these days anyway.

    Neverwinter Nights Diamond
    Darwinia
    Rayman 2
    Unreal Tournament 2004

    What I'd really love to get my hands on is a copy of Sonic Adventure, but nobody has the PC version. Gah. I suppose I could get the Dreamcast version, but DX is (supposedly) slightly less buggy and has all the gamegear games as unlockables.

    I tried the Rayman 2 demo a while back and was severely underwhelmed. It seemed slightly clunky and slow, yet all these reviews I've seen rave about it. Was it really that great?

    Rayman 2 was a defining moment in the 3D platformer genre, but the PC port might have been half-assed. The Dreamcast port was fantastic.

    Unless you have a gamepad (and I don't know if it would support one) I advice against Rayman 2 on the PC, I found KBAM to suck.

    Well, I'm too much of a packrat to rid myself of all my games, but there were a few spares and stupid ones that I put up. Let's see if someone actually goes for them though. I put through a request that I think will go through. We will see! Overall it seems like a nice set up for getting rid of old stuff as long as you can find some buyers.

    On a related note I saw a really nice point value for this special edition of a hack/sign game with an action figure. I won a copy about a year ago, but I have no time or strong desire to play it. Although the point value was pretty good, I decided to see what it would be in ebay monies. It seems to fetch a good price! So thanks Goozex for alerting me to the treasure sitting under my nose!

    I got quite interested in this, but then I tried to put in my mailing address and even though one of the three countries listed in their 'country' drop box is Canada it doesn't recognize Canadian Postal codes, instead it says:

    Bad field address form
    blah blah blah, if your country doesn't have a zip code please leave this field blank

    So I leave it blank and it gives me the same error again haha.

    Hey. I'm getting the same problem. Does anyone know what to do if you're in Canada, or is it hopeless?

    Here's my link anyway.. :P

    Well Goozex is a winner in my book, it's just a shame I sold most of my unwanted games already.

    I saw that there are some VC games up for the Wii, how does that work?

    Probably the same way as it does with MMO's.

    It doesn't.

    Man. I chose Spiderman 2 for X-Box with my 100 points, but now I see that Hulk: Ultimate Destruction for X-Box is 150. Should I just poney up the $moneys for the extra 50 points? I've heard so much good stuff about both games. D:

    MMO games can't be traded because most of their EULAs prevent account transfers.

    I kind of wish that the Gamecube version of Hulk: Ultimate Destruction wasn't 100 points more than the others

    I COULD get the PS2 one but I'd probably need to get a new memory card

    Don't get RE4 on the gamecube if you have a Wii.

    Of those I would say either Rayman 3 or Sonic Mega Collection, but dear god you need to get RE4 Wii edition at some point if you are yet to play RE4 at all.

    Goozex gets their list of games from some other provider (Muse, IIRC) so it will list some games that cannot be traded, such as MMOs, Steam-based games, XBLA titles, etc. Goozex will show these games but not allow them to be traded.

    From what I've understood, it's your position in the queue for that game. So in my case, there are 17 people in front of me who will receive available Hulk trades before myself.

    Pray that someone is selling it and the system will inform if they find a match to your preference of either just the CD, the CD and manual, or the whole package.
