Everything at $4.99 was in stock when I first checked, except for....Scooby Doo on the PS1. If they're going out of stock now, then you were too late (unfortunately).

I dunno. it's hit or miss. Gladius is listed in stiock. You can add it to your cart. But at checkout it automatically removes itself saying it's unavailable.

But Secret Weapons is in stock and you can add it and buy it. I sat there with it at checkout, and well, I have to many games, it got a mediocre rating, and frankly I can't afoord to spend hundreds of dollars on games. Especially if I'm going to go to cc in a couple hours and pick up two or thre more. Than I'll limit myself to $25 or $30 bucks.

Yeah, if you cna find gladius get the xbox version. the GC version has a content lock on it. For example, blood on the xbox looks realistic while it's green in the GC version. At least, that's from what I've read over at gamespot.

I stand corrected. I wasn't remembering the difference correctly. From Gamespot.

"Only the Xbox version shows any blood on the ground after a hit connects, which seems appropriate for a game that revolves around people slashing each other with swords and axes. "

It wasn't that bloodwere green, it was that there was less blood in general to restrict the gore level.

if it says "not available for in store pickup" does that mean the store doesnt have it? or they just dont make it available to reserve online to pickup in store(maybe they save that for big ticket items)?

Good find.

I had Roadkill, Megaman Network Transmission, and Gladius go out of stuck while I checked out.

However, I did get in on Secret Weapons Over Normandy, Dead or Alive 3, and Spyhunter 2, so I'm pretty happy.

Damnit, I had checked these games online the day the news about the sale broke and NOW they put them down.

Got in on NHL Hitz, don't really want Dead to Rights though.

Hopefully I find the games I want when I go down to CC later today.

Mojo is a fun, Monkey Ball-type game. It's less than $10 everywhere, and worth it. Gets pretty challenging.

Updated. Quality and quantity took a huge hit this week.

It's funny, because they show pictures of games that were in stock last week but ran out of supply of for the "official" sale.

07-11-2004, 06:04 AM
Gah, had Megaman NT in my cart, went through order submission, then it tells me its out of stock... Hope one of you didn't just order 100 of them. The rest of them are crap, my little brother could use Haunted Mansion though and Konami Arcade looks ok for $5.

I tried to order one copy of Megaman NT and it was removed from my cart - at 6:02 this morning.

I dare someone to buy Aquaman. Then I dare them to play it for more than 15 minutes.

Sadly - the only game on their site that was worth a purchase was Aggressive Inline (Xbox). While it says (as I type this) that it's "In Stock", proceeding to checkout yields "None for you". Perhaps someone had a large quantity ready to checkout buying their stock outright - or CC.com never had the game but had to put up at least -one- quality title for the advertised Sunday sale :)

Best of luck to all you going tommorrow. I have a feeling that only the CCs who pulled games off the floor are going to have anything tommorrow. Any that had bins put out during the week are going to be emptier than Mike Tysons bank account.

dafoomie
07-11-2004, 06:11 AM
Did anyone here successfully order Megaman NT? And how many? :P

Exact same thing happened to me as Astos... It was like 6:01.

07-11-2004, 06:20 AM
Damn, can't believe I missed this, I checked at 12, then got caught up reading the thread about the blog, that killed about 2 hours. I missed the sale, but I got a fuck load of entertainment reading the tard blog at least.

EDIT: looks like they just had a few copies of megaman and a bunch of crap, I guess I'm not too dissapointed afterall. by the way, seriously go to the blog thread and find the post with the tard blog, one of the funniest things I've ever read.

07-11-2004, 06:20 AM
Was going to get Haunted Mansion but it's gone as well. It lets you add it but won't let you check out, says it's out of stock.

Oh well, didn't want that game badly anyhow. Hope to have more luck in a few hours at the store.

I see that banner on their website advertising 4.99 games with pictures of RECVX, etc. But then when you click on the links everything is sold out. I would think they would have taken that banner down by now. Maybe it's a sign that there are more games to come. I sure hope so.

Zenithian Legend

Did they really even have any games on their website they were selling for $5, or is this like that $1 game scam some other site was running?

Some people on this site have recieved games they ordered last weekend for $5 from the CC site. So maybe some more will pop up soon.
