Finally, some of these games I've been meaning to buy are available at a price worth paying!

I think I'll get Guitar Hero 3 (360), Soul Calibur 4 (not sure if I want to get PS3 or 360...), Overlord (PS3), and Infinity Undiscovery (360).


Oh, and The Cheetah Girls for DS, can't miss that one.

And Steam is selling The Orange Box for $10! That is worth it just for Portal.

There's a few games on that 360 list I wouldn't mind picking up for that cheap. Thanks for the heads up.

I snagged up GH3 a few weeks back for $50 at bestbuy. It was a bundle with 2x les paul guitars (so me and the wife could play) and the game. I considered that a pretty good steal considering those guitars are usually $40 a pop.

But yeah, I'll definitely be picking up quite a few titles on that list. Scheduled to start on sunday, but if my bestbuy's are already stickering them, I'ma snag them up :D

A friend told me about this sale last night too actually, I'm pretty excited.

Devil May Cry 4 for 10 bucks?!

I'm going to tackle everyone who's in my way of the bargain bin. :wacko:

Hrm. I'll probably go for Soul Calibur 4 on 360, but I don't really see anything else I'm interested in.

Oh, probably Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword, as well.

Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword is a bit on the easy side, but it's easily one of the better entries (if not the best) in the series.

And to think I paid 30 bucks for it. Oh and Dragwind. Be prepared to grind missions. The game is cheap when it comes to Proud Souls. Very cheap!!

Blargh. Makes me feel bad for spending $60 on Soul Calibur 4.

Mind you, it's worth every penny. But still. Guilt!

Certainly sounds like it's worth $10. Plus, I got a kick out of the demo I played a while back, so if I can remember to make it over to Best Buy tomorrow, I'll be grabbing it.

Oh my God. :lol: The Wii's list is hilarious.

Might go pick up DMC4 myself.

By the way, if you have both systems, get the PS3 version of SCIV. Just because Darth Vader is actually legitimately fun to play, as opposed to the silliness of Yoda. Seriously. Yoda sucks. Be glad PS3 users have to pay $5 to play as him.

So I stopped by BB today, shit is stickered (yellow circle best buy stickers on top of game case) for the 9.99 stuff, but the sale prices aren't listed yet. They're probably gonna tag stuff after close tonight so they're set for tomorrow. Good luck guys, hope you get what you're looking for! I know I'm coming out with a stack :D

Same here :P

They were out of Infinite Undiscovery, SC4 (360), Ninja Gaiden DS, and Overlord.

All I ended up getting was SC4 for PS3, and Red Alert for 360.

the 2 stores I went to didn't have pure or too human, so I just picked up infinite undiscovery.

got a 1600 points card too for virtual on this week. didn't want to sleep on that one :D

How long is this sale going on?

I want to get my hands on DMC4 and Infinite Undiscovery...

I would assume until close Saturday.

I picked up Infinite Undiscovery, couldn't find Soul Caliber 4, going to try another one tomorrow after class. Also today I decided to pick up Ace Combat 6.

Heh, looks like I'll wait for some other opportunity to buy these games.

Wow, thanks for the news. Anyone know if the sale we continue after Sunday?

It'll go on the whole week. Usually sales that are like that last a week.

yes, it runs through next saturday (the 2nd).
though you've likely missed out on the good stuff already, I found most of it to be gone by 10:30 am sunday.

couldn't hurt to look around though, you may still be able to scavenge something out. if you can, try hitting up a store in a smaller town. that's what I did on my 2nd try and I found what I was looking for.

Outrider

Well, they didn't have Soul Calibur 4 (not that I'm really hankering for it anyway).

They did have Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword (It's actually pretty good! A+++ would buy again!)


Part of me keeps thinking that Too Human would be worth the $10, but I've got so many RPGs to play anyway, and I could never get myself to enjoy the demo.

My local BestBuy was wiped clean a mere 3 hours after it opened. I mean the shelves were literally wiped.

All the good games at mine were bought an our of the store opening. Some employee mentioned the sale as a clearance sale. So they might be permanent prices, as they won't carry those titles anymore. But, managed to grab SCIV for PS3, Condemned 2, and Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword. Now most of the titles advertised were never stocked there to begin with, such as DMC4 (as I already bought that at release). There was an abundance of NG: DS, but not a single copy of Too Human, which wold have been worth $10 to me. Mostly a few people, maybe 12 or so, grabbing titles they want, or settled on. I heard horror stories from other locations though....
