Do You Need New Video Game Accessories?

0

Once in a blue moon you might have a video game accessory, gaming console or video game that breaks. It’s not often but it does happen. Most of you know that to replace a component is a pain because of the amount of money you have to spend on it. Kind of stupid considering what you probably paid for the entire system. You would think they would just replace the darn thing for free! For example, a brand new Xbox 360 controller could cost up to $40! Forty bucks?!

Well what if you could buy a controller for less? Chances are you would jump at it! What a lot of people end up doing is looking online at used video games, video game accessories, and used game console stores online. The cool thing about this and maybe the most important thing is that you can get a really nice quality item, and its going to cost MUCH cheaper than if you bought it brand new. These products are of high quality, most of them were simply returns that couldn't be re-sold in a big chain store because they are opened.

We know and we hate that rule! But now you can actually benefit from this rule! At www.Thumbmonkey.com you can find almost any used video game, video game accessories, and used game console you could possibly think of. It doesn't matter if it’s old or new, expensive or not, you can find them all! And when saving money, you could also buy another controller or a game as well!

Can I Really Find Cheap Quality Games Online?

0


I do believe that if you want to find anything that has the words “cheap” and “quality” - you truly can find it online! One of the things that most people look into when it comes to video game accessories, video games or consoles is to check a used gaming site. Now I know what your thinking you little gamer snob! "I couldn't possibly buy a used game!" Well what if I told you that these are top quality games? What if I told you I could buy two times as many items as these used gaming stores than you could at your big brand name store?

It's true! People all over the country use these used gaming sites because they know the incredible games and consoles they can buy! This is also the reason a lot of kids would actually shop at a used gaming store; great quality used video games, video game accessories and video game consoles, but cheap enough to where they can actually afford them!

Even with the way kids get paid nowadays for chores, it's still not usually enough to buy a brand new Xbox 360 console - but if you shopped at a store like Thumbmonkey, a store that offered used video games, video game accessories and video game consoles, you could very well get an Xbox 360 console with ALL the trimmings; games, controllers, you name it! Seriously, it's a really nice option to check out! At least see what they offer and how much you could end up saving!

Wii And Xbox And PlayStation, Oh My!

0


Oh my is right! Did you know that you can actually buy used video games, video game accessories, and consoles online? It's true! The only thing you will have to accept is that these are "used". By used this could mean one of a dozen things. Most likely though, the game or accessory was used by someone else that simply didn't like it or didn't want it anymore. I think we all know about the annoying rule about how if you open a game, you can't get your money back - all the big chain stores do this.

It's really unfair, but at the same time these are some of the games you could be buying online! Check out Thumbmonkey.com - they have all levels of "used" each of which should be labeled accordingly, such as; fair, good, excellent, INCREDIBLE! Fair probably means it comes without a case or a wire of some sort or maybe a booklet. Good means that it probably has all the cases and booklets, but maybe the graphic part of the disk, or the accessory has a few bangs and scratches on it.

Excellent means its pretty much like a brand new game or accessory, it might have one defect, but that's about it. Used video games that are labeled as incredible, are perfect. No scratches. No dents. Comes with all the pamphlets, the manuals, the cases, and anything else it should include. These are the ones where the owner simply didn't like or didn't want the item! Bad for them, good for us! I've bought quite a few used video games and video game accessories before.

It's just fun because while you go to a big chain store with $50 you might only be able to get ONE game. Whereas if you go to a used video games and video game accessories website online, you can take that $50 and spend it on three or four games - sometimes more! I've spent $50 before during Christmas for my little cousins, and I've gotten up to 10 games for $50. That is impressive my friends!

So visit Thumbmonkey already!

Some Of The Best Used Video Games And Video Game Accessories!

0


Every man's junk is another man's treasure as they say! Not to say these games are junk because they are certainly not! People save hundreds and thousands of dollars every single year by buying used video games and video game accessories. These products are JUST as good as brand new items, but since they are used they sell for much cheaper a price. I've bought all kinds of things used; everything from used video games and video game accessories to actual consoles and controllers.

And it’s not that they sell you everything. Oh, no! Thumbmonkey.com for example has strict guidelines – they check every product before it's even being sold in their state-of-the-art testing facility developed by NASA (okay… not really NASA… but they do check them)

You can buy some really fantastic used video games and video game accessories on Thumbmonkey, even "newer" games that have just come out in the last few weeks or few months. I did this awhile back when the Xbox 360 first came out, the NEW product price was way too much, but I was itching to get one so I started scouring these sites online that offer used video games and video game accessories.

Within about 2 months I found Thumbmonkey and a console that was like brand new. Some kid probably got it for Christmas, lost interest in it, and sold it back to the store. I didn't really care either way, I just knew I got an Xbox 360!

Put a face on your game tag with Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera

0


Don't you wanna know who’s that punk that’s been kicking your ass in Halo 3 lately? You bet! Well, unless he is a 6 year old… Imagine if we all started putting our face to create an entirely new gaming experience. Think about intimidating your enemies with that killer expression you’ve been working on lately. Or maybe just starting a nice video chat after all the killing?

Stop being shy and put a face on your game tag! Make yourself known and introduce yourself to world by using the Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera.

This little camera is really great. The quality of the video and pictures is just fine and it is easy to install. Well, there’s no install actually, just plug the thing and you are good to go.


The best thing about the camera is its capabilities of mapping your face and turning the real you into an on-screen character. How cool is that??? Already games like Totemball are actually played by moving your arms and body in front of the camera and turn into a human controller. So what if you look silly playing? It’s fun as hell!

By the way, if you buy this camera from us, you’ll save like 60% of the original price tag. It’s new and it’s never been used and it costs $12.99 so get moving!

Your PSP deserves to be heard!

0

Last week we were bitching about Sony a little. Don’t get us wrong folks. We love our PSs and PSPs and whatnots, and can’t really imagine the world without Sony. But you know how it is, high expectations and big disappointments, right? Like with the PSP… man it can do cool stuff. Besides the gaming, you can get all your MP3s, movies, videos, shows and such on that mean little screen but... the speakers hold you back. They just can’t do the job. Not on a train, not in a plane.
Well, the nice guys at Joytech deicded that it would be a nice gesture to upgrade things and came up with a PSP Media Amp Speaker System. When you’ll dock your PSP in this Joytech joyride your ears will blow off. Seriously. It’s LOUD. How loud? Double the loud? No! Triple the loud? No! It’s quadruple the loud!!! And it’s not only loud… the acoustic design gives the unit a rich, full sound which practically brings your games, movies and music to life.
Joyride were nice enough to throw in a handy remote control and made sure that the docking station conveniently charges the PSP while you’re enjoying life. The Amp works with your PSP AC adapter or with the use of 4 AAA batteries.

And wait, we didn’t get to the best part. Guess how much? Come on… This PSP AMP costs $9.99 and no it’s not a typo and no we did not forget an extra 9. This is how we role here at www.Thumbmonkey.com

PSP Go - Epic Failure?

0

I don’t know what’s up with Sony, but it seems they like to see us suffer. On one hand they make these really cool gadgets and consuls but on the other hand they have serious control issues and they just won’t let us be!


Take a look at the beautiful new PSP Go. It’s a mean and lean machine – 16 percent lighter and 35 percent smaller than the PSP 3000. But it doesn’t have a UMD drive. So everything is saved on the internal memory (16GB) or on Sony’s own annoying Memory Shticks. Get it? If you’ve got a bunch UMDs you are stuck with your old PSP ‘cause there is no way you can transfer UMDs to the PSP Go.

Another thing that we absolutely hate (can you blame us?) is the fact that Sony's gone all Apple and you won’t be able to buy games from Thumbmonkey.com! Nope. You guys will have to feed the giant corporation, buying exclusively from Sony’s PlayStation Store. Now we’re not talking about the extra bucks you’re going to pay. Oh no. We’re talking about the freedom of choice America! Plus, download speeds are a pain, at least an hour if not two, all thanks to Sony’s limited 802.11b connectivity.



And it costs around $250. Huh? 250 dollars??? You have any idea how many games you can get for your PSP 3000 with that kind of money? hmmm... Lets see... If a game at www.Thumbmonkey.com will cost you around 10 bucks... then 10 times... no it's actually 250 divided by... Well... It's a lot of games all right!
