well I recently had to leave town for a bit so I grabbed a new GBA game

so I decided that the sacred cards yugioh game would be good for when i couldn't play GC

well stupid me forgot to bring the GC games so all I had was sacred cards

I was totally pissed off at it

I beat the game in less then one day with a deck so horrable that if I used my deck in real life against it it would only last 3 turns max

so basically I spent 30 dollers on a crappy ass game that the only good side was the cards that came with it

That game is only good versus someone else, but then they break out the ubber cards which irl would be difficult to have.

I had that game, beat it in two days, and exchanged it for used game called Beyond Good and Evil.

You should have checked ahead of time to see whether the game was good or not. Sorry to hear about your $30, but that's what happens in life when you spend money without putting thought into it beforehand. Just be thankful it was just a game and not something much more expensive.

You really should have known better. That's what the internet, magazines, and even other gamers are there for; consult any of those before wasting money (this applies to everything, not just games). Tough luck.

My blockbuster did it for a good year. I was shocked to find them gone, and the N64 games still around.

I think my Blockbuster still does.

Sadly, my Blockbuster doesn't carry GBA games. I suppose most don't, since they're small, and easier to lose/steal than other stuff.

Anyway, Eclair, if you don't like wasting money on bad games, you could always check out some info on the game. You could poke around on Amazon.com or similar sites, looking for reviews, or get a magazine that has game reviews.

At least, when you trade it in, you get to keep the irl cards it comes with http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif
