I should stop by pawnbrokers more! I got GTAIV for AU$35
benjaxez | 8:08 PM on 10.21.2008 2 comments


Just a little update, so I was walking around waiting for my mother to finish doing her groceries so I can drop her home so I can go and finish off CoD4..

As I was walking I walked pass my local pawnbroker, I never really go into those places but I thought I might see something worth my time till my mother calls me back.. I walked to the console section and I thought I was daydreaming cause there it was a copy of GTAIV with a price tag of AU$35!!

It was too good to believe, I asked the guy why it was so cheap, and he said, "oh it's got a few scratches and fingerprints.." But being the excited guy that I am, I paid for it anyway.. When I got home I opened it and cleaned the disc, and whatdya know!! I'm glad he didn't know the pure toughness of blu-ray discs :P

The so called "scratches" were non existant after I had cleaned the disc itself. After cleaning the disc it seriously looked brand new, I popped it in and I now have a 100% working version of gtaiv.. I don't really know what to say but yeahh-

Heres pictures:


and here's my dtoid theme, nothing big just used the dtoid wallpaper, and used icons to match it


hehe it looks better when you actually see it, in all its HD goodness.

that's pretty good, If you went to EB or somewhere, you'd probably still be paying the full price.

Lol hell yeah, even if it was a preowned one it would still retail at like AU$100.. great bargain is great.
