I woke up this morning and apparently said to myself, "dude, you want a PS3 today," and PS3 today was had. The only problem was I had no money, so I came up with this interesting conclusion: trade your old stuff in that you don't use anymore. I thought, "meh, I'll only get a little bit, so I might as well not get my hopes up." I decided I would pay Gamestop a call, and ask what I would get for all my stuff. I told him, "I want to get the used 60gb PS3 you have there, and I was wondering how much my systems would get me." I proceded to tell him that I was going to bring my X360, Wii, and PS2 in, and he followed up with "That'll get you about 400 alone, plus whatever games you decide to bring in." I won't lie; I was filled with instant glee. I packed up everything, grabbed my 20 or so X360 games, my 4 Wii games, my PS2, and proceeded to venture to Gamestop. I walked in with a backpack holding my Wii and my games, a plastic bag with my PS2 in it, and my X360 in its original box, just carrying it by hand. It took an hour, but with all the accessories for everything I had, my extra controllers, games, memory units, and all that stuff, my grand total came to a STAGGERING..... $877.60 Again, that was: $877.60 Glee filled my heart once again, along with a little shock too. I proceeded to get the memory card adapter, Resistance: Fall of Man, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Motorstorm, and the GOTY edition of Oblivion, along with my gorgeous PS3, and then proceeded to preorder the following games: Call of Duty 4 Rock Band bundle Ratchet and Clank Guitar Hero 3 (with the guitar, and I paid all of it off right away) Finally, Assassins Creed. I am proud to say that I walked happily out of my local Gamestop today. Today was an adventure; one I will not likely soon forget. I am completely happy with my "purchase," and I wouldn't take it back if I could. People may call me stupid for that one, but you're not the one playing it, I am, and as long as I know what I'm doing, I'll be plenty happy. I am plenty happy, and I will have months of happy gaming ahead of me with everything I got today.
