I've finished all of my games and am looking for a new challenge.

Perhaps you have games that are collecting dust that you would consider selling for a reasonable price?

All types of games considered.

I've got Fable 2 and Star Wars:Force Unleashed. Both are Korean, but they may be region-free, idk. I'd be willing to trade or sell them. Sell value for Fable is W60,000 on gmarket, so I'd be willing to sell for W25,000, and Star Wars is W80,000, so I'd do W35,000 for it. Or I'd be willing to trade for any game, provided I want to play it enough (even if it's old and cheaper).

Fable 2 is good if you liked the first one, but again is too short and easy. Good fun though to play through once or twice. Haven't played it online but maybe that'll add something extra, playing with friends. This time around you get guns and crossbows instead of bows and crossbows. The targeting system is much more advanced, and the leveling system is a bit more difficult. I detest the new spell system, but it does make it more difficult to cast spells than the first, and the mage character becomes a bit more balanced. However, there is no mana; you can just cast the spells all day to your heart's content.

Star Wars:TFU is one of the best, most rewarding games I've ever played, but also one of the most frustrating. It is without a doubt the best Star Wars game made, both in terms of a great storyline that fits in with the rest of the SW universe, and with the variety of moves, powers, and combos. After playing through the entire game and learning all the tricks as you go, then you play the first level again, it's like child's play. You truly become a master of the force (I couldn't resist typing that sentence, sorry, it's one of the most corny ones in our language). However, the game saves only every 10 minutes or so, which is after every major skirmish. Sometimes, minor skirmishes can be a pain and kill you a couple of times, so the major ones make take 10 times to beat, which means you're playing those same 10 minutes over and over. Therein lies the frustration. If you start on a more appropriate difficulty setting, that problem may be alleviated, but I refuse to start on anything less than the hardest difficulty in games.

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain why you like the games.

I have already played through Fable 2 and did enjoy it.

I remain unconvinced by Star Wars as I was able to play it for a short time at a friend's house but it didn't strike me as anything ground-breaking.

Thanks again for your input though.

I wouldn't be so quick to base your selling price by Gmarket standards as they are expensive in relation the guys at Yongsan or elsewhere.

For example, Star Wars is 31,300 new from play-asia!

If you felt like adjusting your price I may be interested.

Oh, I didn't know that. All I know is I got Halo 3 off gmarket for W10,000, which is incredible to me. Yeah, I'd be willing to lower both of them by W10,000, making Fable W15,000, and SW:FU W25,000.

So you'd take W30,000 for both titles?

Bearing in mind that you stated an original sale price of W25,000 and W35,000 respectively. Incorporating the discount of W15,000 for each title would bring it to W30,000.

I wasn't really paying attention when I typed that (playing Halo actually). I'd drop them by W10,000, and would be willing to sell both together for W35,000. I thought you didn't want them?

Dude get Left 4 Dead. I got it about a month ago and it hasn't left my 360 since. It's region free, and there will be new content available free on xbox live in September. Great investment. I think I paid 40,000 for it.

Surely there must be other people out there looking to get rid of a few games??

Re: Auslegung

Original prices weren't great, especially as I could have got them new for less but the 2 of them for that price is very intriguing. Please give me time to think it over.

Sure, no problem, I was just a little confused. I'm also willing to trade, if that's something you want to do.

I've got these games that I'd like to trade. I'd rather trade them than sell. You usually don't get much for used games, so I'd prefer to just get something else to play instead of 10,000 or 15,000 won.

Simpsons
Call of Duty 3
Forza 2/Viva Pinata
Lost Planet
Perfect Dark Zero
Ridge Racer 6
Madden 08
