Same here, even though we get ripped off. I paid £45 for Skate. </BLOCKQUOTE>

£45 + PES6?

Or was that for a different game? </BLOCKQUOTE>

In cash I paid £20. Other £25 was trade in stuff.

I aint that thick to pay £45 and give in PES6.

When you trade in a game, do you need proof of purchase or can you just go in and exchange it?

And that brings us to the multiplayer,
which, after the hopelessly addictive beta
earlier in the year, is arguably what most
of us were anticipating. Obviously during
the course of writing this review there
were relatively fewer people actually
playing online, but we’re happy to report
that every match we played (and we
played an absolute shed load!) was
intense, lag-free and home to some of
the best multiplayer gaming we’ve ever
played. And to give that statement some
perspective, we’ve played a lot of Halo 3!
That comes as no surprise however,
Infinity Ward having already proved they
know exactly how to make a great online
experience with Call of Duty 2, and, of
course, the public beta gave us a
tantalising snippet as to what to expect.

So what’s changed since then? Well for
starters, Infinity Ward have bundled 16
maps onto the disc, and they’re 16 of the
greatest and most varied multiplayer
maps we’ve ever had the pleasure of
waging war on. Whether playing on the
Countdown map, a sprawling missile
launch pad complete with visionprohibiting
smoke emerging from missile
silos, or Shipment, a particularly tiny
Russian shipyard that provides some hectic
shotgun shootouts, the multiplayer is
always fast and frantic. Of course some
maps are much more suited to particular
character classes than others, but most
allow for some sort of freedom in viable
class choices.

There are six primary multiplayer game
types; Free For All, Team Deathmatch,
Search & Destroy, Sabotage, Domination
and Headquarters, with all six providing a
mix of deathmatch, objective-based and
territorial games. There’s even a hardcore
mode to unlock which, if you weren’t getting
your ass handed to you enough already,
allows you to play with a restricted HUD and
increased weapon damage.

Of course the bigger picture to COD 4’s
online capabilities comes in the form of
rank, a levelling up system that unlocks all
new weapons, accessories and perks as you
gain experience on the frontline. Upon
reaching rank 4 (of a possible 55) you’ll
unlock Create a Class, allowing you to take
character classes to a whole new level by
completely customising your loadout. Perks
add a further layer of tactics to the gunplay
and your three choices can wildly affect your
chances of success in the combat zone.
With a total of 22 perks spread across the
three different choice categories, each offer
various individual advantages to war on
the battlefield such as deeper bullet
penetration, an increase in health or even
the ability to eavesdrop on the other
team’s communication. The perks are a
great addition, offering a real motivation
to level up in order to gain the upper
hand rather than purely for bragging
rights.

Thankfully COD 4 doesn’t contain the
game destroying connection errors that
plagued the previous games in the
series, and the matchmaking system
works wonders. Matches typically only
take a very short amount of time to find
and load, and more often than not you’re
on the battlefield within a matter of
seconds. Lobby play and clan support
also allows for a group of friends to get
together, stay together, and take on the
world. The multiplayer makes complete
a perfect package, bumping up an
already impressive score to something
reserved only for the best.

From some review on the multiplayer.

nah i brought a game in HMV but as they dont exchange games, i was gonna try to exchange it in GAME.

[retired_nafrally]

whoa, sounds like the multiplayer usurps halo 3's. hate the way you can't choose what map to play on and there are no perks to levelling up in that game.

[retired_mountainsong]

if you're trading it in it doesnt matter where you got it from
