Goozex Game/Movie Trading Site

Not a fan of swaptree? Well there are other sites out there, like Goozex. I must say, it is a nice site. The main difference is that you exchange games for points instead of trading game for game. You can trade games from a variety of consoles, from Dreamcast to Ps3. This site is great if you have recently released games because you will probably trade them quickly and for a lot of points. See, when you post a game that you want or would like to trade, you have to wait in line. So after everyone in front of you has traded their game, then you will get the chance to send yours. So, if your game is outdated, then you may be waiting for a while and only scrape up 200 points for it. Lucky for you though, every game is worth at least 100 points. The points for new and popular games are higher than older (as you would expect).
With that said, you can get points by trading your games, or just buying them with your credit card. 100 points are $5, 200 points are $10 and so on. You do get a small discount when you buy 1050 points or more at one time, which will cost you at least $50. To trade your games, you post them in your "Offer Queue." From there you have to patiently wait your turn in line. Depending how many people are in front of you and how popular the game is, it can take days to months for you to reach first position. Once you are in first Goozex will look for a buyer. And as soon as it has found one, you get some options on when you will send your game, or if you don't want to send it at all. The one thing I really like about Goozex compared to Swaptree, is that it doesn't seem to penalize you when you don't want to go through with a trade. For shipping you can print out one of their labels, which cost you about three dollars, or use your own method. As soon as the person receives the game he or she will give you feedback on the overall condition, and that is when you get your points. Also while putting games in your offer queue, you should put games in your "Request Queue" as well. You will still be able to move ahead in line, even without enough points to get a game. Once you have enough points for a game in your request queue and you are the first person in line, Goozex will alert you when someone is going to ship it to you. Now along with points you need to have tokens, in order to get a game. Tokens are a dollar each, but you have to buy at least five at a time. As you buy in bigger bulk you do get a discount.
As for trading movies, I'm sure the process is the same, although I don't us the feature. I do know you can trade DVD's, Blu Ray, And PSP movies. If you use it, tell me if there are any differences. Thanks for reading, and please feel free to ask any questions.

Access To All The Games You Want In An Instant!

I'm not just talking about poorly made games that know one has heard of, I'm saying REAL GAMES such as Burnout Paradise, MLB 2k9, Crysis: Warhead, Bioshock and MORE! Picture yourself jumping across rooftops on Mirror's Edge and then your friend sends you a message about playing MLB 2k9, but you don't own the game. Pshh no need to get out of your chair, just purchase the game RIGHT THEN AND THERE! The game streams from their server to your OnLive console, so to experience high definition gaming, you need a good internet connection (the biggest pet peeve for me). I don't want to have to buy some expensive router just for OnLive, but I don't think anyone will have to or else the service wont sell.
Now a little more information about it is that the service works through Windows XP/Vista, Mac (Intel) computers and the OnLive console (of course). For playing on the computer you just need to download a (I'm hoping free) browser plug-in and that's it. The console seems to be very small from photos i've seen (even smaller than the controller itself) and has two USB ports for controllers, keyboard, or even a mouse. It also supports up to four wireless controllers and four bluetooth headsets, which makes for simple gaming. The controller reminds me of the xbox 360's, but without the middle xbox guide button. The four buttons on the top right spell out LIVE, which is kind of nice because it is a word you can remember in your head to help you get used to the buttons.
So, even though I wont be waiting in line to get this exceptional creation, I will be trying it out whenever I get the chance at a local best buy, or my friends house. Anyone interested in trading in their trusted Sony PS3 or Microsoft Xbox 360 for this new idea? Leave comments below. Also if you want to check out the website here's the link: OnLive and if you REALLY like this product then sign-up for the beta program, and try it out on your computer (I don't think you can test the console itself yet), but for those who love their keyboards and mouses (or mice) then sign right up. They start selecting testers in the summer, so hurry up. There's no telling how many people they will accept.
