- Welcome to the crazy world of CEX! My continuing mission to visit every CEX store, in the world! From the weird to the wonderful, the big to the small I plan to visit them all. So join me for an epic adventure to visit them all all while building my dream game collection along the way!
This time we’re heading to 3 brand new CEX stores in and around the city of Leeds, some of the larger cities around the U.K. have multiple CEX stores and this is a great way to visit more stores and along the way we’ll be adding some awesome games to the collection.
One of the best tools when hunting in CEX is the CEX app, it’s a great way to get an idea of what games are in stock BEFORE you visit a store and this time we use this to our full advantage hunting for awesome games for the collection in 3 brand new CEX store.
Finally as is tradition here on this series we head to my local CEX in the fine city of Norwich in search of a specific game. That’s because another awesome feature of the CEX app is the stock alert, and I have had an email saying there is a super rare game for the PS3, which NEVER comes in stock in stock and even crazier it’s right here in my home town, I just hope I can find it!
Remember to like, subscribe and comment which CEX I need to visit next and why! If I haven’t visited your local CEX yet, don’t worry! I will visit them all eventually but this is going to be a long journey!
I can’t wait to bring you all along on my adventure to see The Crazy World of CEX!

Nice to see some great games out in the wild, another great video thanks
Some awesome games and some great games added to the collection this time!
2:55 Ninja Gaiden for the Game Gear. Been after that for a while. See it does come with manual too. Tempted to play the Cex roulette on that one!
Could be worth a gamble as it’s very rare to see ANY boxed Game Gear games now
Great video mate 🤘🏻
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Not really my best pickup ever, but i got really lucky when a dude came into a cex with a trolly of games when I had a crap ton of trade in credit, and I got the rapture edition of bioshock 2 for the same price as the standard edition. Comes with the art book.
It’s always a win though when you get an upgraded copy of a game for the same price so great find!
Nice pickups. Iron Sky is currently sitting at £28 on the PS3 and £40 on the 360
Thanks! How it’s very strange timing that I must have picked it up just before the price rise as mine was £20
I'll see you when you make it to NI :)
Looking forward to it already!
2:15 the blood will tell is a very well made reprint in there
No way I would have never noticed that! Have you had a closer look at it?
@@DanTheGamesMan yes, it was my return. I think I have pictures of it.
@@Dynastone that’s bad that’s it’s still on sale, especially if they know it’s a reprint
@@DanTheGamesMan they refused to believe it was a reprint and took it back as unwanted, it’s still got the old price tag before ps2 rarities were a thing so it’s been sitting around for a long time.
@@Dynastone I expect it’ll be sitting there a lot longer unless it gets ordered online and then returned to another store
Nice pick ups mate! I have Iron Sky Invasion, got it on a CEX Roulette. I saw it was going down in stock and had to grab it. I just got one on the roulette today from the stock alert as it's never in stock and it's pretty pricey on eBay. The game I got was Digimon All Star Rumble on PS3. I've ordered it 3 times and it was a reprint. Today, it actually turned up with a manual and it's in amazing condition. Definitely one for you to maybe to look into. Also, you know my best CEX stock alert. 😂I sent you a photo of my BL2 Loot chest the other day.
That’s good luck to grab Iron Sky, I have never seen it come up, until now! This is the only luck I’ve had recently on the lottery as like 90% of my online orders get cancelled at the moment annoyingly.
I’ll have to check out Digimon while I can…
Yeah that’s one of the best CEX lottery’s I have ever seen lol.
@@DanTheGamesMan I ordered it last year before all of the rush for PS3 and 360. I knew it was coming, I went a bit mad last year lol. Still got quite a few big games to get though. I will say if you've not got it yet make sure you have X-men Origins: Wolverine before Deadpool and Wolverine is out. I know that game is going to jump because of the movie. I got mine just recently.
@@invalidblackout yeah that gen of gaming is going made price wise now!
Thankfully I already have the X-Men Origins Wolverine game and I’m very glad as I absolutely love that game!
New drinking game idea......take a sip of your alcoholic beverage every time Dan says the words "absolute" or "absolutely" 😉😅🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
You wouldn’t last the whole of the video lol.
Also make sure you use Absolute Vodka 😂
@@DanTheGamesMan haha I absolutely wouldn't last and I absolutely love absolut vodka but I'd absolutely pass out and wake up with an absolute hangover from hell the next day 😉😅 thanks for being a good sport 👍 long time channel supporter here.
@@KillerSockPuppet great way to spend an evening though lol. Thanks for watching for the support! If you can’t laugh at yourself who can you laugh at lol
A lot of GameCube games have dropped pretty dramatically in price over the past year to be fair. Metroid from 20 to 12, Sunshine from 28 to 18 for example
It’s all about grabbing them as the prices shift and knowing when to buy and I reckon I’ll grab Paper Mario very soon….
Does it make a difference if iron sky is uk or European?
Honestly this is the only version I’ve seen and as the PS3 is region free I’m just glad to be able to play it
FOMO. Just bought it 😃
@@Mantakev was it in stock suddenly?
@@DanTheGamesMan eBay. £28.
@@Mantakev that’s a great pick up for that price!
I put a 1% chance of you coming to my CEX
Which store is it lol
@@DanTheGamesMan Penzance, few miles from Lands End :D
@@Peterisgb I’ve been hoping to get down that way for years, mainly over summer lol but the prices for accommodation make quite a jump over summer, which comes as no surprise as it must be amazing there over summer!
@@DanTheGamesMan oh yes. We get lovely sun here but lots of rain n wind too. Not sure if there is anything special in our store currently but I've seen some games come and go well in access of £150 per unit.....
@@Peterisgb I can imagine, I lived on the coast before and it can change very quickly and winter can be GRIM!
Hopefully I’ll get there one day soon and when I do there’s some good bits there waiting for me lol
I think you made a mistake on how many wii u pal games there are I'm sure there's ony around 160
There seems to be a few conflicting lists. Sadly I think I’ve missed the boat on going for the full set, some of the games are mega expensive now!
@@DanTheGamesMan tell me about it the list I found I completed beginning of this year but it broke my heart buying zumba
@@alexclark9086 haha I dread to think how much that set you back!
@@DanTheGamesMan I put vouchers towards it but I think I had to pay around £30 on top which is £29 more than I wanted too
@@alexclark9086 haha the crazy thing is it’ll only get more expensive and least you got to do most of it with vouchers!
What’s you’re rarest most expensive game? Top 10 video would be great! Just bought the last red 500gb super slim ps3 from CeX And just bought that ps3 sonic collectors edition and god of war trilogy hopefully coming from Hemel Hempstead thanks for the video
Wow that’s an awesome find and a beautiful console. It’s probably a virtual Boy game but I’m not sure which one…
@@DanTheGamesMan you been to Ipswich lately ! Have you done Clacton, Braintree , Colchester ?
@@Collect-Retro I’ve been to Ipswich at the start of this year but I still need to do those 3 which will probably be an episode lol
Nice to see some great games out in the wild, another great video thanks
Thank you and thanks for watching
I love the glass cabinet of dreams (the GCOD)
Same! It’s where I always seem to find the best treasures in CEX!
I think i picked up my copy of Splatterhouse on PS3 for £35 a few years back. Also better condition than that 360 copy haha
I wish I’d have picked it up sooner lol. I think I’ll have to soon as it’s only going to go up in value and I think every copy in the world is in better condition lol
@@DanTheGamesMan it's crazy how much some stuff is now. I really lucked out getting Spiderman Edge Of Time for £12 four years ago
@@AlexGreat321 yes indeed I wonder if a lot of is down to the games being removed digitally
@@DanTheGamesMan I think it's a combination of things. Stuff being removed from digital stores, stuff being stuck on old hardware and some TH-camrs saying how they're having fun with an old game that is really hard to get (tying in with the first two points)
@@AlexGreat321 yeah this is all true and also I guess as games get older more people become nostalgic for that game
Great video , do u work out looking kinda huge? Nice hat btw
Thanks! I do like this hat haha.
Yeah I have been hitting the gym a lot recently lol. Thanks! 💪
Glas cabinet of dreams ❤
That’s my first port of call every time and I love it!
