Depends on which console your after.

One things for sure forget Ebay.

Nintendo DS & PS2

Not going to risk ebay essentially a mate got games on there that never worked, so a bit sceptical.

PS2 shouldnt cost more than £30-£40 now a days

Not sure n the DS, have you tried cash generators in town or even the game shop on corner of broadway.

I would go for a 2nd hand ones.

If its for your kid/kids, you know they want a Nintendo WII. :D

Try MegaSwap on Blackburn Road Mel, they always seem to have good deals advertised.

for new original discs, try Play.com or CD-wow., Amazon can also be cheap on some titles.

There are now online rental systems for games so you can try before you part your hard earned cash for them as well.

Ive never had a problem with games from ebay, all Alecs have come from there this year. :D

play.com have a good deal on at the moment with dvd's. 3 for £15.

ps2 dosnt need a chip infact the new slimlines ones if chipped will burn out the last i heard

google ps2 boot disk and plenty of uk sites will pop up , they cost around 15 quid

no messing and very easy to use - i would go with the bootdisk for teh ps2 and save a fortune

ps:

bootdisks are totaly legal so no need to remove this post - thankyou :D
