Purchased a copy of MLB 26 that isn’t available in retail stores. The item was exactly as described and priced very well. Smooth transaction and fast delivery. Would definitely shop here again.
Great experience. The game arrived early, was exactly as described, and worked perfectly. Smooth transaction—would buy again.
I would give 0 stars if I could. City of games sent a game with express shipping. Shipping should have been 1 day expected delivery was the Wednesday before Good Friday. The game did not get delivered until Wednesday the next week. I had to buy the game from a local store as it was an Easter present. Once I picked the game up I sent it back… Read more
without taking it out of the original shipping satchel. City of games refunded me half the amount as the game was not in its primal condition. Not happy and will be taking this further with eBay. I would stay away from this store.
Tbh I always want to be informed as to who I am buying from and what type of company they are. I liked City of Games prices and the fact that they are local and a small business. Came on here, read reviews and boy oh boy are some of you wrong! Bought off City of Games, customer service is excellent, product excellent, postage excellent. Zero complaints! Don’t let other people’s experiences determine yours
Probably the best customer service I’ve had in a long time. I usually prefer buying from brick-and-mortar stores, but lately the service has been disappointing. City of Games was the complete opposite, every question was answered perfectly, and the shipping arrived exactly when promised for my son’s birthday. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you, and I’ll definitely be back!
Great experience! The item arrived earlier than expected and was in perfect condition. The price was excellent and hard to find elsewhere. Very happy with the purchase and would definitely buy again!
Hands down one of the best sellers I have dealt with in a very long time. Very responsive. I appreciate it a lot especially as a single parent. Thank you so much
Terrible experience! They sent the completly wrong item then are incredibly rude and make out like you are asking the world of them when asking to return and be sent the correct item. I ordered an xbox controller which was wired specifically and received the playstation version wireless. This ruined someone's Christmas present as this was their… Read more
main gift... I had to spend extra money I hadn't budgeted for so they could have something to open on Christmas... So following up with these guys I was told to send the item back and they would need to check if they had actually sent the wrong item...? I stated I could send through any pics or proof they needed and they made me out to be a criminal, they said very bluntly, if your expecting to keep the controller and get a refund that won't be happening! Never had I suggested this at all. My issue was.... it took forever to get to me, then I will need to wait for it to arrive back to them, then however long they deem necessary to "check" and see that they are in the wrong and have caused all this... then wait again for them to ship and wait for it to arrive... very long process for their mistake. "Customer service" is non existent and they are so rude! It's been a nightmare the whole process and I will never buy here again!

They are a supplier of the Big W Marketplace and i will advise to be very careful when purchasing from this company. Ordered a game on the 10th of December as a Christmas present, noticed it was shipped from Victoria so assumed it wouldn't take long to ve delivered in the same state, well I followed the tracking and it had gone to Brisbane, after… Read more
reaching out to there customer service team to be told, it's not there problem and its Aus Post, this went on for 2 weeks until I intervened. It arrived today with the wrong game and TWO delivery addresses, mine and another one in Brisbane!
So it was their mistake even though they blatantly refused to assist. Never ever again.
Thanks for your feedback. Your order was… Read more
Don't know why people are leaving bad reviews, there was no hidden shipping costs for me, and customer support has been nothing but pleasant. So unless you are just a competition store then I don't understand the issue. They have been responsive and very friendly.
Hidden shipping costs, no communication, rude service – avoid. I ordered a game from City of Games and the whole experience was extremely poor. • When I first enquired, I was told shipping would be $10 AUD, but when I placed my order, I was charged $15 AUD. No explanation was ever given for the higher cost. • I provided a complete English… Read more
address at checkout (and even included Japanese as supplementary information). Over a month later, I was suddenly told the address was “incorrect.” Nowhere during checkout was it made clear that the courier required “English only.” • If that requirement exists, it should be clearly stated and automatically checked at the time of purchase. That is the retailer’s responsibility — not the customer’s. Blaming me for their lack of a proper system is unacceptable. • The rep also raised that my billing address was in a different country — a completely normal situation for international orders — as if that were my fault. Another excuse rather than taking responsibility. • In more than four weeks I received no communication from them. The issue only came to light because I chased it. • Instead of an apology, I was repeatedly met with threats to cancel my order, delivered in a rude and dismissive tone. When they finally agreed to ship, they described it as “goodwill,” as if fulfilling a paid order was a favour.
The lack of transparency, the poor communication, and the unprofessional service all add up to a very bad experience. I will not be ordering from them again, and I strongly advise others to avoid this store.

Never received my game. They sent it through crappy Sendle. I tired contacting City of Games for a refund but received zero response. They still have my money, its basically stealing my money as i haven't received my item. Cityofgames you must be very happy getting free money from your customers or more like stealing money from your customers. I am going to avoid them from now on.
For clarity, your order was dispatched and handed… Read more
Still advertising discontinued out of stock items. Purchased several items all of which were immediately refunded without explanation. Still advertised on their store 2 weeks later as of writing this. On follow up, didn't reply to my enquiry at all. It's 2025, there's too much competition to use a vendor like this. Do yourself a favour and go elsewhere.

Awful experience do not purchase – Awful experience with this sellers. Bought an item they had listed, and they only sent me half of what was ordered, and then claimed I got what I ordered and since changed their online advertisement to suit what they sent. I had a screenshot of original purchase and they still would not honour it. I even had to fight for them to pay postage just… Read more
to get a return.
It’s now 7 days until Christmas and I’m down almost $1000 and have to try and find something else to gift my kids, stressed is an understatement. Absolutely disgusting customer service and will be reporting the false advertisement to ACCC

Amazing service – Recently ordered from them, amazing customer service and fast delievery! Game came in perfect condition so happy, will definitely buy again.
Great product and service – I recently purchased college football 25 and am very happy with the product and service. I received the item 2 days after ordering. Would buy again.
Disgusting level of customer service – Fake notification of posting of my order with fake tracking. Seller became aggressive when I questioned as to what was going on & was told in a matter of fact manner, that my order could not be posted to me via express delivery to my address. What utter rubbish! Seller did not offer to remediate & cancelled my order without my knowledge or consent… Read more
when I threatened to raise complaint via eBay (purchased through their eBay store). To avoid me further, I was blocked through their eBay store. To top it off, seller updated the tracking number in the eBay delivery tracking to a valid Austpost tracking number after cancelling the order, to try to cover their arse with eBay (didn’t work) Foul customer service from this business, avoid like the plague.

Good price, good value and fast delivery – Bought two Nintendo games from them, good communication, good price, good value and fast delivery, will buy again from them, I recommend this place. Thought this may help fellow gamers as there are not many reviews of them out there.
