  • I’ve been curious about Mafia 3 but …

    Good find OP

      I’ve been curious about Mafia 3 but …

      There’s now free DLC for it! What a good time to pick it up!

    • +8

      Played it, it's ok it just gets repetitive after a couple hours.

      • +2

        Agree, pretty much same tactic / gameplay throughout. I did enjoy it though.

        • +1

          I was hoping to grab Mafia 3, but couldn't spot it at three different stores.
          But did end up getting some good ones, spent like $103.
          Here's what I got:

          The stuff it, it's cheap pile:
          $2 - Agents of Mayhem
          $2 - Anthem
          $1 - Evil Within
          $5 - Evil Within 2
          $2 - Dishonored 2 (Need to Return, its the regular version, later found a steel case version)
          $5 - Steep

          Bought for sibling pile:
          $2 - AC Chronicles
          $2 - AC Syndicate
          $5 - AC Unity (Need to Return, apparently sibling had it, I don't play AC)

          I might eventually get around to playing it pile:
          $15 - Far Cry 5.1 New Dawn
          $5 - Far Cry 4
          $5 - Far Cry Primal
          $10 - Skyrim
          $14 - Just Cause 3

          I actually wanted these pile:
          $2 - Monster Hunter World
          $10 - Nioh
          $5 - Prey
          $1 - Deus Ex Mankind Divided (steel book case!)

          …sorry to broden, guys :\

    • +34

      Oh did you call every single store in Australia?

      • +7

        He called every store in a relationship

    • +3

      You do raise a interesting point, if its only a couple of regional stores that still have stock then its probably better to just name the store rather than have people waste time going through every JB Hi-fi. Shame it wasnt online, easier way to find out i guess.

  • I do wonder how many of these would net you more than their cost with the current EB trade in deal?

    • +2

      Very low, especially how the Xbox Series X/ PS5 released later this year.

      For example, I found Sunset Overdrive for $1 (great game, btw) and was quoted $1.50 as base value.

      • Amazed you got that considering I bought it from EB for a tenner 3 years or so back, shit nearly 4 actually.

  • +1

    Yesterday I got assassin's creed 4 black flag scanned for $5 said $14 on the tag at Sydney Westfield cbd

  • +7

    In the common section hey. What are we, a bunch of commoners to you?

    I shall attend my local jbhifi today and shall inform you of my findings.

    Knowing my luck though, nothing will be left.

    • +3

      Lol. I saw that and couldn’t be bothered changing it until I get some other titles to update

  • +2
  • +2

    Spiderman is available for $25 new at alot of places.

  • Does anyone know if eb or Jbhifi are accepting trade ins again yet?

    • +1

      Eb yes. JB no

    • Today's the last day of a return to trade promotion too

      10% extra value if you trade a game
      20% if you trade 2
      30% if you trade 3 or more

      Plus whatever your EB level is.

      I got just over 300 for a small stack of games I wanted to trade in a month or two back right when they shut down the trades, so I guess waiting worked out okay for me with the extra value.

      • Small stack? I've always wondered how much they trade in for games but don't want to go with 20 games just to check.

        • You can always call EB and they'll give you a price for what each game is worth to trade in

        • +6

          To get over $300 for a stack of games would require level 4 status + Birthday bonus + 3 plus games bonus and a PS4 Pro.

      • Bugger, just gave a shitload away the other day. 😞

      • +1

        Can I see the receipt? Or shall I just assume you typo'd an extra zero.

        • +4

          I just went out, in the cold, in bare feet, and had a rummage in my scooter, and to my delight it was still in there actually. Ready boys?

          XB THPS5 - 18
          XB CODMW - 42
          PS Uncharted trilogy - 6
          NS Sonic Forces - 28.50
          NS Has Been Heroes - 10.50
          NS Lego Incredibles - 16.50
          NS AC3 - 16.50
          NS Mario Odyssey - 45
          NS Wolfenstein 2 - 22.50

          PS Uncharted LL - 7.50
          PS Wipeout - 13.50
          PS Until Dawn - 7.50

          $304.50 for a small stack, many of which I'd actually bought for less. THPS5 I bought for a tenner at Big W in 2016 for example. It may be a piece of shit, but it's current gen Tony Hawk, and now with the remaster coming, I can finally part with it… though I still have the PS3 digital edition I guess.

          • @TheDukeOfNukem: OK a small stack, with some pricey games. I called up to find trade in for devil may cry 5. $10.
            Yeah I'll get more for my games on gumtree and not stuck with store credit.

            Thanks for the the list though!

          • @TheDukeOfNukem: you virtually threw out lego incredibles switch (worth 25-28), assassins creed 3 (worth 20-25) and wolfenstein (worth 28-35) lol - @Swapware Games

  • Picked up The Division for $1 just then.

    But honestly, I was getting more value out of pricematching some rarer games with EB's SALE.

  • +4

    Greensborough jb hasn't changed prices

    • You saved me a trip, thanks!

    • Green's bra?

  • how does bloodborne run on regular ps4 slim

  • No pre-owned PC games?

    • +1

      Not possible for PC games, they're just activation codes in boxes. Once the code has been activated it's worthless.

      • When I bought Bioshock on PC it didn't require any activation, and I could resell the game afterwards.

        • That's surprising. Even games I was playing back on Windows 98 mostly came with activation codes!

          Though are you sure? When I googled it I find manufacturers instructions on how to activate it.

          • +3

            @callum9999: Yes, those old Windows 98 games came with activation codes, but that didn't prevent the games from being installed and run on another PC. The codes simply meant that two copies of the game couldn't be run simultaneously. This wouldn't affect single player, but if you tried to play multiplayer online, it wouldn't allow two codes to be used at once (but since Bioshock was only a single player game, this was a non-issue).

            All of this changed when Steam was launched in 2004 - at that point, game activations became associated with an online account, which in effect ended the second hand market for PC games. But Bioshock in 2007, could still be activated and not require the creation of any kind of online account. This simply meant that when you bought a second hand game, you trusted that the person you bought it from uninstalled it on their end. Games at the time would often require the disk to be inserted before they could be played, in any case.

            Bioshock 2 was different, and couldn't be resold, because it required the creation of a GFW (Games for Windows Live) account, but Bioshock 1 did not, which meant it could be resold. Note that Bioshock 1 initially had a limit on how many times it could re-installed, but this was removed in 2008, which meant that it could effectively be resold an unlimited number of times.

    • This is my biggest pet peeve with PC games. I'm a pc gamer myself so just wait and snipe at the steam/uplay/origin deals when they come through.

      • gog is better

  • Just been to rouse hill NSW

    The crew $1
    Gears of war 4 $5
    Shadow of Mordor $2
    Dead rising 4 $5

    They also had
    Fallout 4 $5
    Steep $5
    Assassin's creed chronicles $1
    Elder Scrolls $1

    And a few others for $5

  • +1

    Earlier this week I picked up Wolfenstein II for $10 and Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Collection for $5. Both PS4.

  • its been going for a while already n many stores. picked up some wwe and division xb1 a week ago

  • Dammit wish PC prices were the same 🙃

  • +1

    I got NFS Heat on ps4 for $10 along with dishonored DE and dishonored 2 and the order for whatever they were going for ($1/$2/$5 I think) don't know if nfs was a mistake but makes me want to go back and see if i can find more like that. Would definetly get fallen order for that.

    • Can you please post the receipt if possible?

      • I'll have to check my other car when I get home for the receipt. It was marked at $10 and it was only one of the other ones she had to get a manager to sign off on so I assume it rang up at $10 as well.

  • Trials rising for switch is $10, probably won't get the season pass but never know I've lucked out on a few pre owned games with DLC before.

  • +1

    Enjoyed the metal gear survive dig 😂

  • +2

    waiting for TLOU2 to be one of these so I can try it with less than 5 dollars

    • Apparently JB has received so many copies traded back that they've now banned it

      • Game is that bad?

        • Can't speak to the trading ban but the special editions have been selling out. Waiting for my regular copy in the mail

        • If I had to describe the story, I'd say it would be the game version of 'The Last Jedi' in the way it 'subverts expectations'

      • +1

        This is fake. Stop spreading fake news.

      • +1

        Could be funny. Because JB stopped trade-ins when pandemic started.

        And they are still “banned”

        Ahhhhh the salt and tears….

      • Apparently people are going to gather outside Naughty Dog studio and do a mass burning of all the game copies.

  • Monster Hunter World xBOX1 VERSION STILL $20

    • $24 at JB Narellan, maybe the prices are random

  • I bought Fifa 15 and Fifa 16 for a $1! Until i bought Fifa 19 18 months ago I hadn't played Fifa probably since the early 2000's. So I don't have the context of having played it constantly over the years and understanding what everyone means when they say the game isn't a good as it once was, and i read somewhere a few months ago that Fifa 15 was the best.. so lets see!

  • Any Switch stuff on clearance?

    • +2

      You’re funny

    • I did see trials rising pre owned for $10. My store only had 5 pre owned games though so not much to check.

  • Jb Hifi Blacktown:
    Assassins creed chronicles PS4/Xbone $2
    The division Xbone $1
    Infamous second son $5.

  • Guys the prices marked at jb isnt correct, so just ask them to check. I got a bunch from castle hill they still have most of them at normal prices not the clearance pricing

  • Anyone know how much Pillars of eternity 1 complete edition on ps4 is? preowned?

    • Only the common franchise games are discounted.

      The RPGs and other rarer games are all mostly normal price.

  • Any idea if this is for today only? Or when the sale ends.

    • They're just trying to clear out old stock.

      For example, I bought new $1 PS Vita games a few weeks back from JB.

  • Anyone know if the last of us remastered is on the list

  • Not much left in Maribyrnong and Highpoint, hardly mostly for honour at $5, few old Fifa and madden ones

  • Noticed this a few days ago at one of my Locals.

    I picked up Madden 16 for $1 and traded into EB for $1.43 + $10 EB world Trade in bonus towards my Last of Us Part II Console haha.

    Also Destiny and Dishonoured Complete Editions for $1 and $2, Deus Ex Mankind $1, Assassin's Creed Unity $1. Wasn't much left apart from FIFAs

  • +1

    Division 1, Dragon Quest Xi, Monster Hunter and MGS Phantom pain under 15 bucks for all 4.

  • Belconnen ACT is pretty much cleaned out as of this morning (PS4).
    Noticed one copy of Infamous: SS for $5, Mass Effect Andromeda for $10 and FF: Type 0 for $10.

  • I picked up Dishonored 2 ($2), Agents of Mayhem ($5), Ghost Recon: Wildlands ($5) and FIFA 18 ($2) all for PS4 at JB Hi-Fi Macarthur Square. There was also Don Bradman Cricket 17 for $5.

  • +1

    A few still at Melton Vic. I picked up Metal Gear Solid 5, ESO Gold Edition, Assassins Creed Chronicles, and Dishonored 2 for $10. Used my $10 coupon from a prior deal so effectively got 4 games for free!

  • Wish there was a way to check without going to stores.

  • +1
