Not many places buy them, you'd probably be better off selling them on Adverts.ie or ebay, you'll get a better price there anyways than if you were to trade them in a shop

Thanks for the replies!

adverts.ie is probably the best place, as long as the games are reasonably recent - very old ones don't shift too well

Slightly off-topic but can anyone tell me where is the best place to buy PC games in Dublin city. I dont mean the 10 most popular €50 games of the moment but slightly older games for cheaper. Some stores have bargain baskets, etc.

Also, does anyone have problems with vista and PC games? I have installed IGI 2 but cannot get it working and I can find any patches. Any ideas?

I suggest you open your own thread, you will probably get more replies that way. No offence intended. And thanks again to everybody that replied!

game have a 2 for 25 section, you can usually pickup relatively new titles there, as for gaming on vista I have never had a problem, igi2 is very old at this stage though, might be worth trying to run it in xp compatability mode

Again, adverts.ie can be a good bet - often get people selling off collections of older games.

Think a lot of the game shops still have sections selling off older PC games at 3 for 20 or similar.

And there's always ebay.

On the IGI 2/Vista problem - not beng smart, but have you tried googling it? I seem to get a fair few hits.
