Default Game Lend/Borrow thingy

I have been thinking, this place is reasonable with fellow gamers that have been gaming since the dawn of time, why not set up a lend/borrow system, I would happily put up a list of games that I would lend and other users can post games they would swap for. What with the "credit crunch"

I am unemployed at college and cant claim any benefits so I am on my last whim to play anything, cancelled my lovefilm account and have 7 games that I am ready to sell but would rather swap.

Obliviously some games can command a higher swap vaule like a new release vs a 2 year old game.

This thread could crash but I have done this before on the internet years ago and had a great time.


My game are

Tiger Wood 2009
Saints Row 2
Gears of War 2
Fifa 09
PGR 4
Dead Rising
Viva Pinata
Kameo
Shrek the Third


Game I want to play/have not played.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
Rainbow 6 1/2
Lego Batman
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Sonic Unleashed
Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
Lost Planet
Top Spin 3
Condemned 1 and 2
John Woo Presents Stranglehold
PDC World Championship Darts 2008
Fallout 3 ( this is a major game so I wouldn't really want to borrow it unless you was happy of a few weeks of it being lent

All game are for the Xbox 360 Console, no dirty Sony rubbish.


That is just a small proportion I have taken off Game.co.uk.

Game will be sent via Royal Mail RD which is about 80p and is insured up to £32

The last one failed because there was a lack of Noel Edmonds



SWAP SHOP!

It's a nice idea. Sadly, only game I own that you want to borrow is Stranglehold . I do have Fallout 3 but am playing that all the time still, 55 hours, nowhere near done, found about 1/4 of the missions and DLC coming in March .

I didn't even take it for risk of losing it, it's all packaged away on the side of my desk for when I dare walk 1.5 miles on my ankle.

Do you own a PS3 Cheets? I know you said only xbox 360 stuffs but i don't particularly want to swap games and thought there's a chance you're referring to the games you own as 360 only. Just asking because i'm willing to send you a copy of top spin 3 on the ps3 for a while if you wanted it.

Finished resistance yet nokkon?

My PS3 has been packed up Streeteh as I didn't want to damage it knowing that I might have been selling it, looks like people are willing to wait a little longer for money though, so I might set it all up again and play through it. Still trying to get my Xmas games done! .

No worries mate, hold on to it as long as you want, you selling it because of money issues or have you got bored of it out of curiosity?
