yup, as long as the day you trade them in, the games are still over $8 in value. Also have to make sure you have the manual in there and the disc isn't too scratched up.

Everything that I have read, and by playing the exclusive Gamestop demo, tells me that they actually put a lot of work into this game and it is playable for the first time on the new platforms.

I am leaving work early Friday, wife (and 6 week old daughter at the beach for part of a bachlorette party) and 2 year old son at the grandparents on Saturday, means zukes will be going old school and pulling an all night Madden marathon.

Just a heads up, went into EB and from t he 14th to 16th if you trade in 2 games you get Madden for $9.99, after that it's $19.99.

So I pre-ordered the game and will go grab it after work for NHL 09 and Assassins Creed....suckers.

Whoa, whoa whoa. If I trade in two games, and give them 10 bucks, I can pick up my copy of Madden on Tuesday?

Nope, only Friday to Sunday.....but yes, 10 bucks.

But the games have to have $8 trade in value.

After a couple days with this game. I have to say this is the first Madden worth it's money since it's legacy days on PS2. It feels like a new game compare to it's predecessors.

Just picked up my copy, I bought last years and wasn't thrilled, the IQ pissed me off. This year however is much improved, having a blast so far. Will need to work on some good sliders as there is lots of tweaking that can be done.

Did you have to pay to be a star rewards member or something like that?

NHL. The new NHL comes out in 3 weeks. FIFA doesn't come out until the middle of October.

I traded in NHL 09 and Tiger Woods 09 + $10 for Madden. Will be trying it as soon as I get home.

So I had a pretty good day today...

1. Went to Pawn Shop X: Picked up Gears of War 2 in perfect condition for $10, complete with manual and an unused code for a free map pack download.
2. Went to Pawn Shop Y: Picked up NHL09 in good condition for $10, complete with manual.
3. Went to Rogers Video and traded NHL09 and Call of Duty 4 for Madden 10 for free.

Balance Sheet
Out: $20
In: Gears of War 2, Madden 10

Even if you factor in the original $20 I spent on COD4, I still got a $65 game for $30.
