Was tempted by the 1 month free offer but dont watch that many films so the hassle of signing up and then cancelling put me off.

Still getting to grips with it.

Only played it a few evenings.

Last thing I done was shoot a load of cattle rustlers @ Pikes Creek I think.

Its a bit like Grand Theft Auto on a horse.

What bout you?

Lynchboy - http://www.game.co.uk/ have a Ps3 sale on for new and used games, their used games have been checked out too, as they don't accept them if there are scratches on them. I would keep an eye on hotukdeals.com too for cheap ps3 games too. Gone are the days of every game costing £40, unless you are in HMV !

Game are a complete rip off. Worse than HMV!

Play.com are usually very cheap.

They usually are but if you are specifically looking for used games I would rather go there than some chancer selling me a used game on eBay. There are some new games in the Game sale that are cheaper than the pre-owned version.

thanks chaps !!

Got the RTE player working in the U.S here last night. Nice to have now definitely. Hope at some point I can stream the matches.

9 times out of 10 you would buy a used game of them at the same price it would be new on the likes of amazon/play etc.
