Yeah I thought I'd see what HMV's trade in prices were like and was quite happy with it
They even gave me £4.50 for a copy of the first Blitz the League game which didn't have a manual, I bought it for £5 ages ago! So not bad at all.
Looking at CEX's prices on their site, HMV were slightly less than them but in my case, I can't go to CEX anyhow making HMV the best at the moment and of course with 4200 points for £30, it's excellent.

I make so many typos these days; par for the course when you've a baby under one arm most the time.

Anyway, you should take it as a compliment http://www.thefreedictionary.com/pervious

But I know where you're coming from and it's probably the most accurate of all 3

The strangeness comes in that my bench players are a 90 rated Torres and a 99 rated Benzema upfront because neither have a national strike partner .
I've just got a 88 rated Zanetti straight from the pack if you're interested. RWB though so not sure if you'll want him.

No thanks matey, I got rid of him because he was an RWB. I'd recommend selling him on the official forums, you might get a few thousand coins for him.

I finished my second play through of Mass Effect, still need to play it another two times to get all the points. Annoying. Achievements should encourage replay, but to get the 'have person x in your party most of the game' achievements, you are locked into playing a certain way. Which goes against the general idea of a RPG.

I've now restarted Tomb Raider Underworld. I got to the start of the 'rainy jungle' level (the name escapes me right now) before and in an afternoon got there again. I was using a walkthrough to pick up the hidden treasures on the way, but it's spoiling my enjoyment of the game, so I've stopped that so I can just bash through it and do a second pass to scoop up missing achievements.

I was messaging Widget on Xbox Live as he's playing it currently (Mass Effect) and he's on his FIFTH playthrough.

On Mass Effect related news, I've seen a Mass Effect Two Screenshot.

Well, I've finally beaten Guitar Hero: World Tour on expert; woohoo! After getting past the song I was stuck on the final song (the infamous BYOB) wasn't too bad and it only took me a few tries. Still can't come close to beating Lou on Hard on GH:III though.

Finished Penny Arcade: Episode 1. Excellent stuff if a little frantic at times. I missed out on 2 achievements due to an autosave after the final boss though I don't mind too much. Going to wait and see if they discount episode 2 before I buy it though.

Tidied up Lego Batman with 1000/1000. I finished the story with my little girl and played through quite a few of the missions free and found myself with a little time yesterday and polished off the remaining achievements. Great game and imo the best Lego game to date.

Really enjoying Resident Evil 5. Played one chapter with Nokkon but due to time/physical constraints it's looking more a solo job which isn't too bad as Shiva isn't as bad as she could be. Also proves you shouldn't pay too much attention to demos as I didn't like it that much and so far this is my goty
