cheap Games at PC World

was in local Dundee PC World today and picked up numerous cheap games.

XBox 360 / PSP and PS2 games starting from £2.97
DS / Wii and PS3 starting from £4.97

Picked up 18 games today for £65, unfortunately they are not all good games.

Scarface for PSP being case in point. Maybe just worth the 2.97 for the movie scenes.


definitely worth a look in your local stores.

Re: cheap Games at PC World

I fail to see how spending £65 when some of the selection is poor is in any way worthwhile.

I had the following today for 360:

Quake Wars: Enemy Territory £7.97
Flatout: Ultimate Carnage £4.97
Beautiful Katamari £4.97

The latter 2 were sealed and stickered with the above prices. Quake had a higher price (£14.97 on one box, £39.99 on another) but I got them to scan it out of curiosity and it came up £7.97.

The selection of games will vary from store to store but Rockstar Table Tennis, Stranglehold, Conan, Eragon, Prey and FEAR Files were among those under £5 or even £3 for Table Tennis.

Re: cheap Games at PC World

Just got back from a different branch with R6V in hand for £4.97. At the same price I saw Condemned, with Condemned 2 and Lost Planet at £9.97.

Loads of PS2 games for £2.97, including a bunch of licensed titles inc. Ghost Rider, POTC: At World's End and Superman Returns, as well as GTA: Liberty City Stories. Some good bargains for kids in there.

Plenty of PSP games at £9.97 inc. GTA: Vice City Stories, Splinter Cell, etc.

These were in seperate clearance bins and not on the regular gaming shelves.

Re: cheap Games at PC World

I got Rockstar Table Tennis for £2.97 and Quake Wars for £7.97 at Westwood branch.


They didn't have many games left, and I already had most of what they had, usually at full price .
