Due to spending way too much time rocking out on Guitar Hero II for the 360, my wrists are officially... well... hurting. On the bright side, I am officially a satisfied customer. Definitly £65 well spend. That game is flat out, awsome! Not only does it play much better than the original but it looks brilliant. The only complaint I would make is that the track list, I'm sure you have heard, isn't nearly as good as that of the previous game. Never-the-less, the songs are really fun to play.

But despite the title of this blog post, this is not what I am here to talk about. A few hours ago, I headed off to Gamestation with the intentions of selling my PS2 with all it's games. Well, I wasn't expecting much money, I just wanted to see how much they would give me for it.

I didn't really wanna trade it in for anything below £80. The guy at the counter was half way through scanning the games when he asked, 'How much are you expecting from this?'. I replied, 'Erm, about £50'. He looked at me and said, 'Well we're already £30 above that.'

Wha-- £80 and still more games to go? I thought that seemed pretty good. It came to £98.50. Luckily I had brought with me an unwanted copy of 'Saints Row'. That brought the total up to £110.50 which was enough to buy a DS Lite with a starter pack and free chart game of my choice. I picked Phoenix Wright: Ace Attourney Justice For All and walked out of the store feeling generally happy with my purchase.

You may be thinking a PS2 with around 20 games + a copy of Saints Row is not worth a DS lite. Well consider this: I do already have two other PS2s in my home that aren't mine but have access to with a decent line-up of games including GTA: Vice City, Bully, Kingdom Hearts, a bunch of sports games...uh...Gran Turismo 3 + 4. Plus I have a fairly new and unused PS1 with games such as Final Fantasy VII, VIII and IX, Metal Gear Solid, Spyro (legendary) and more... Plus I still have a copy of Final Fantasy X which I was unable to sell because there was no manual.

So to sum up: I now have a brand new DS Lite, 5 stylus's, Phoenix Wright 2, a cleaning cloth, screen protecter, a leather wallet thingy for storing the DS and in return I no longer have a PS2 to call my own plus I lost a bunch of pretty decent games.

Totally worth it in my opinion but I'm sure many people will say otherwise.
