[jjz203]

Chaching! Snagged one and it's available for pickup at my local CompUSA. Been waiting for this one to drop. Thanks OP!! :applause:

[murray731]

Thanks OP, been waiting for this to get under $20.

[happyorangeman]

Great Game. Really Great for that price, too bad I already have it.

[Masterkyo]

I'll get SEARS pricematch it and save extra 10% off (extra $2-$3).

[turls]

I knew I shouldn't have bit on it for $40 on Amazon DoTD. I didn't even want it for the Halo 3 beta (which I already had). But I figured it wouldn't be cheaper than $30 anytime soon. Guessed wrong.

[jeffblack12]

Here's your free shipping code:

ONCAMPUS

Expires 8/25

Worked like a charm, $18.26 Crackdown for me, thanks OP.

[VidgamesgivemeA_D_D]

Great find OP, picking one up at my local CompUSA.

[seanr1221]

Great game people, don't pass this one up!

[rhenzhen]

There's a possibility that you might get this cheaper if you buy it in store... I just bought PGR 3 for only $12 bucks in store but on their web site is selling for $16.99... i think they have promotional discount on their clearance games... I will let you know later... Im going to compusa store @ 12 PM!

[JohnnyDrama]

In for one, even though CompUSA is really close to me, I opted for delivery since I probably won't have time to drop by there.

[mannysgoldglove]

At this time we are unable to ship to APO/FPO (javascript:opensmallpage('/common/shop/apofpo.htm')) or P.O. Box addresses

FU CompUSSR

It is a good deal though

[Decker]

Thanks. I ordered it with in-store pick up since I was going right by there today anyway. I almost finished it as a rental but at that price, it'll be fun just to mess around with.

[huvabut]

Sweet. In for in store pick up. Thanks OP!!!

[sic62]

picked it and viva pinata up, thanks

[Mr. Anderson]

Wow, that is a great deal.

[Jebus]

Here's your free shipping code:

ONCAMPUS

I'm in for one with free shipping, $18.96 total.

Thanks to you for the ship code and to the OP for the deal!

[FoxHoundADAM]

Is this a temporary pricecut or a lowered MSRP?

[Damian]

Hmm, I'm not ready to play this now. I just picked up Bioshock and then there will be Halo 3 and probably Mass Effect. The problem is, will I be able to get this for under $20 when I'm ready to play it. It's only $23 used at eStarland right now, so I'll probably be able to pick it up for not much more in a few months anyway. It's still tempting though.

[msane]

Awesome deal, especially with the free shipping.

[Damian]

FU CompUSSR

It is a good deal though
They ship UPS. Only the USPS can deliver to APO/FPO and PO Boxes.

[ericb]

Thanks OP, great deal especially with the free shipping coupon. I've been waiting for this one to drop.

[Damian]

Is this a temporary pricecut or a lowered MSRP?
It's temporary. The price is $34.99 and they have $17.50 Instant Savings until 8/25.

[CrimsonPaw]

Soooooo ..... fucking ...... tempting ..... for this and Viva ....... must ....... restrain .....

[ZoMBie37]

Been Wanting to get this game for a while but now that its so cheap i can oplay forever without having only like 35 minutes

[SNKMat]

Great Deal

[Machine]

In for one with free shipping. $18.54 total. Thanks OP.

[soccerstud652]

Just ordered mine for $19 shipped, thanks OP!

[BigDirty]

Dead for delivery - Instore pick up only

[creeeaature]

It's back up, just ordered one

edit: nevermind, accidently had instore pickup selected.

Still, anyone know of any stores that will price matched based on web advertised prices?

Or can anyone pick me up a copy?

[CrimsonPaw]

Please note that one or more items were removed from your basket because the product is no longer sold.
An order must have at least one item.


:(


CompUSA got closed down in my area, closest one is 90 miles. Anyone know any stores that will allow me to print off the webpage as evidence for a pricematch?
Same shit happened to me, I was about to pull the trigger when it was removed from my cart .... DAMN.

Oh well, maybe it's a blessing in disguise (but I really wanted this and Viva Piniata). Only thing is that I was going to use Google Check-Out as well for an added discount.

[theironunkind]

in for crackdown and viva pinata

17.99, free ship, $5 rebate.....I LOVE CAG!!!!

[psunami]

In for a Viva Pinata. Figured I should cave and pick that one up eventually. Thanks to the OP.

[jgamezcua]

Awesome find OP, too bad no longer available for delivery

[rerun]

Picked it up. Thanks OP.

[minhaferzz]

I got one for in store pick up. Thanks OP!

[ihzer0]

And Viva Pinata for $16.99:
http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?ref=cj&pfp=BROWSE&N=201254&Ns=display%5Fprice%7C0&product_code=342667


Can anyone confirm it's the limited edition version?

[grendel19]

Too bad all the CompUSA within 50 miles of me closed in the last 2 years.

[bigdsinferno]

seems to be the same here. I've got nothing within 50 miles. I could have sworn there was... but, their prices were always too high for me to go there anyway.

[Professor Oreo]

Thanks OP! Ordered one for in-store pickup! Really sweet deal!

[killer9]

thx tc great deal on crackdown

[ihzer0]

Alright, I asked customer service, and it's the regular edition of Viva Pinata

[MikeC]

I know Crackdown has co-op, but do you guys know off hand if it can be played by 2 people on the same console or is it strictly online co-op?

[Karyyk]

Crap, sold-out for shipping...grrr.

[alfonsosoriano]

Damn, I knew I slept too late. I'd do in-store pick up if CompUSA wasn't 20 minutes away. Maybe it'll come back.

[CrimsonPaw]

Damn, I knew I slept too late. I'd do in-store pick up if CompUSA wasn't 20 minutes away. Maybe it'll come back.
Wish I had the problem of CompUSA being 20 minutes away, make it 2 hours and 20 minutes for me :(

[alfonsosoriano]

Yeah I guess some people wouldn't mind that drive, I'm just too damn lazy at the moment.

[MrGranger]

Awesome deals. Too bad I got Crackdown a couple months ago. I still haven't had time to even play it.

[rhenzhen]

I bought one in store... There was a stupid guy who got caught trying to hide some copies of Crackdown. He looks stupid. He bought 2 copies of Crackdown...

[minhaferzz]

Alright, I asked customer service, and it's the regular edition of Viva Pinata

The Plano, TX store had some special editions available for that price.

[jjz203]

Damn, even better deal, pm at BB for $16.52 total but with the PG rebate = grand total of $11.52! Damn I love being a CAG. :grouphug:

[pandabox]

wont let me do in store pick up or delivery...wtf?

[psyanide82]

wont let me do in store pick up or delivery...wtf?

Then you must not have a CUSA with the game in stock...obviously OOS for you.

My 2 Manhatten stores have them in stock...I might pick one up for a friend.

[PyroGamer]

Anyone who's been loving BioShock should check out this game.

EDIT: whoops! I must be dyslexic or something. I thought the thread title said "Condemned".

Wow. What's wrong with me?

[Gooter]

sorry haven't read this entire thread. However, if you're like me and all of the compusa's have closed near you (closest one now is 60 miles away), my local Best Buy price matched their ad with no problems.

[VidgamesgivemeA_D_D]

Anyone who's been loving BioShock should check out this game.

????? You'll have to explain that one. These two games couldn't be more different than the other.

[creeeaature]

Damn, even better deal, pm at BB for $16.52 total but with the PG rebate = grand total of $11.52! Damn I love being a CAG. :grouphug:

How did you pm at BB? Don't they require the actual ad? I called and they told me they won't match competitors prices online.

[getmyrunon]

Anyone who's been loving Baseball should check out Synchronized Swimming.

Seriously. Where were you going with this? I'm not in total disagreement as I happen to enjoy the two games, but for completely different reasons... I guess there could be some latent connections between physically upgrading your body, and firing projectiles, but the comparisons stop there.

[Masterkyo]

Yay! I got Sears pricematch it for $15.XX after taxes. Also, pickup Project Gotham Racing 3 for $10.76 after taxes at CC with $10 off coupon. :)

[lord_ebonstone]

Definitely worth it for ~$20.

[louie95340]

What kind of proof does Best Buy/Sears require to pricematch? TIA

[CrimsonPaw]

sorry haven't read this entire thread. However, if you're like me and all of the compusa's have closed near you (closest one now is 60 miles away), my local Best Buy price matched their ad with no problems.
I would love to find out how you did this, it must have been a fluke. My BB says that the store must be local and have it in stock to PM. I called and BB.com will not price match any online competitor. Oh well, sucks to be me :cry: .

[creeeaature]

Yeah would you guys please reply, did you end up printing off the page and bringing it in or is there physical compusa ad that shows the deal I can bring in?

[Masterkyo]

Printout this Page below (Page 3 Only) and take to your local Sears, CC or Bestbuy for Pricematch.

http://www.compusa.com/products/products.asp?N=201254&Ns=display%5Fprice%7C0#sort1

Good Luck :)

[MrBeatdown]

creeeaature, you should be able to just print out this page...

http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?ref=cj&pfp=srch1&Ntt=crackdown&N=0&Dx=mode+matchall&Nty=1&D=crackdown&Ntk=All&product_code=344445

...since it says "In-store" right on it next to the price. I don't think they'll give you any trouble.

[elmyra]

Crackdown isn't the only thing on sale. I just got back from CompUSA, and in addition to Crackdown, I got Gears of War for $37.49. I also had them scan NFS: Most Wanted ($22.49) and Fight Night Round 3 Platinum Hits ($22.49).

The games scanned at regular price until the cashier totalled the transaction. The original price was $34.99 for Crackdown and $49.99 for GoW, and the screen showed a discount of $17.50 and $12.50 when the transaction was totalled. YMMV on GoW and the other two games until somebody else can confirm it, of course.

Edit: GoW is still $49.99 on the website, so it's a definite YMMV on that.

[creeeaature]

Hmm alright, every store I've called told me no they won't accept online ads, however I was talking to customer service reps. Maybe if I run into a cashier who doesn't know any better they'll let me.

[toper]

Thanks for the headsup, OP! Went to Sears and had them do an online pm...no problems whatsoever.

[Eleo]

Closest CompUSA is 26 miles from me, not only that but apparently it's not available at that location. Sucks. Probably would end up making up the discount in gas money anyway.

[jdawgg76]

Hmm alright, every store I've called told me no they won't accept online ads, however I was talking to customer service reps. Maybe if I run into a cashier who doesn't know any better they'll let me.

I once got BB to PM Fear 360 for 7.49 on KMart's site, but at that and most BBs you HAVE to go to customer service for a PM and it will require a manager's approval and there HAS to be a B&M nearby and it HAS to be in stock either at the B&M or online. All CCs told me they only PMed their own site. I'm going to try Sears since everybody seems to have success there and they automatically knock off the extra 10% for PMs instead only for PAs. Plus, if they truly do PM sites without a local B&M it is all for the better since the closest CUSA to ATL is Knoxville, TN.

[McNutsack]

So do I have to buy it online for in store pick up 1st?

Can't I just go down there and buy it off the actual shelf for that price?
Or is the price like net only?

Oh well, might as well buy it online 1st anyway, lol

[daminion]

Just got back from CompUsa. They have a ton of games in a bin, but most of them have the original prices. I had to have them price checked in order to figure out what I wanted.

However on top of the bin was a sign, 25% off of all clearance games when you buy two or more. Not sure if this is just local. It said for 3 days only and ends tomorrow.

My haul (confirming some prices from above)

360 Prey - $25.18
360 Gears of War - $37.49
360 Viva Pinata - $12.74
360 Project Gotham Racing - $12.74
360 Crackdown - $17.49

Now I just need to decide which ones I want to keep. Any thoughts?

[Sporadic]

Now I just need to decide which ones I want to keep. Any thoughts?

Almost all of them (besides Gears) have a demo up on XBL.

Download them and keep the ones you like the most.

I'm planning on buying Viva Pinata. The demo hooked me.

I'd keep em all, but you might find Prey CE at TRU for $9. Or I think KMart has it cheaper. Check the Kmart thread. Great game even at that price, but why pay more?

Would be a great idea if I actually had a 360 :) I'm buying now in anticipation of my future purchase.

[hiccupleftovers]

PGR3 is $16.99 on site. What gives? Did it go up in price?

[Sporadic]

Would be a great idea if I actually had a 360 :) I'm buying now in anticipation of my future purchase.

Oh, sorry. I just assumed since you had a gamertag listed.

- Prey is a good FPS, you should be able to find it for cheaper though.
- Gears Of War is a favorite for most people but I really didn't like the cover system/third person. You should probably keep it.
- Viva Pinata, I loved the demo, feels like a better Harvest Moon.
- Project Gotham, you should probably just wait for 4 to come out. I think it's releasing in October.
- Crackdown, it's fun but it gets old after awhile. I say dump it and grab Saint's Row instead.

[elmyra]

I'm doing the same! :lol:

[Fusion]

great deal

[ZerotypeX]

I was late for shipping and the closest Compusa is 74 miles away, bah. I guess on saturday I might go to sears unless someone wants to get me crackdown and I'll pay them back

[mbennum]

Thanks OP! :D
Been waiting for Crackdown to hit $30 or less, stopped on my way home and grabbed a copy.
The Compusa in WDM, IA had 6 or 7 copies still, if theres any other CAG'ers in the area wondering.

[bustamark]

Awesome deal, got in for one. Thanks to the OP

[MORT A POTTY]

bah, missed the shipping :(

lame.

ah well, I'm sure I'll find it cheap again soon enough. won't pick it up again for more than twenty though. sold it for more than that :D w00t

[Sporadic]

I ended up buying Viva Pinata for $18.01 shipped.

Thanks OP

[bisquit]

blah, sold out. and in store is too far then i care to drive to pick it up :=(

[shibbyshoo]

Thanks OP! PM'd at BB and the total ended up to be a little over $16. Thanks again!

[kfrancia]

thanx op just got a copy
i also got a dead or alive 4 non platinum hits for $25

[jdawgg76]

Even with no CUSA nearby and the website sold out for delivery, Sears was a breeze to PM. They just check the site from a link on their PC and confirm the item's price and it was done. The guy even asked if I wanted to buy the second copy they had which I picked up for a buddy. I'm pretty sure he doesn't have it yet, if he does I'll probably put it up for trade. Plus, you get the extra 10% off at purchase as opposed to buy and adjust like BB.

[Burchamj]

thanks picked one up today!

[autche]

Any chance of crackdown coming back in stock on compusa.com's site before the end of the sale? I know anything is possible, but do they run things kinda like amazon where stuff goes out/in of stock several times (and even daily at times)?

[CrimsonPaw]

I was wondering the same thing. In fact I called the 1-800-COMPUSA number and the lady said to check back Sunday and they may have more in (but she really sounded like she just wanted to get me off the phone). I'll just keep my eyes pealed.

[pthagonal]

Such a great deal. Such a great game, anyone who doesnt bite is full of shit!

[mattvander]

i bought mine at 4pm in Reno, NV

thanks OP!

[Number83]

In for one. Thanks OP!

Store Pickup in Deleware = Tax Free, FTW!!!

[Professor Oreo]

The low $17.xx price is actually due to an instant rebate that takes about 50% off of the normal price of $34.99. That rebate is set to expire on Saturday 8/25/07, so even if they got some more copies in on Sunday it might actually be too late to get the cheaper price.

[Decker]

Did anyone else buy online with in-store pick up? They swear to me even though it sure looked like I bought it online, I actually had to ring it up in-store. I seriously hope I didn't pay for it twice.

[joejo02]

Did anyone else buy online with in-store pick up? They swear to me even though it sure looked like I bought it online, I actually had to ring it up in-store. I seriously hope I didn't pay for it twice.


On the email receipt it says that you won't get charged until you pick it up. It also says that you can choose a different type of payment when you do pick it up. I beleive that they just reserve it for you and then just ring you up for it when you get there.

"Remember, your credit card has not been charged. Payment can be made at time
of pick up by check, cash or any credit card accepted at CompUSA."

I picked mine up today and I asked about it too. They said I won't get charged. Hopefully they are telling the truth.

-JoE

[Decker]

Thanks. The manager says he gets people asking him about the policy all the time. It's very confusing and I didn't see that message in my email. I appreciate your input there.

[gunm]

Great deal, but I already have the game...it's good fun, IMO.

[thirtytwoutside]

Picked up a copy today. I played the demo and wasn't really all that into it, but for $18 and some change it'll be something to hold me over until Skate and Halo3 are released.

[joker______]

sorry haven't read this entire thread. However, if you're like me and all of the compusa's have closed near you (closest one now is 60 miles away), my local Best Buy price matched their ad with no problems.

was it in the ad or did u have to do a print out?

[fraeone]

Very nice. I <3 Crackdown

[alexandertyler]

Thanks OP!

Later,

Alex

[bobthecat23]

damn im tempted to buy it at that price

[jjz203]

Hmmm... strange that some BB's would give a YMMV on the pricematch. I just bought it from BB off the shelf, then did a quick 180 back to customer service and told them it's cheaper at CompUSA. They looked it up on their pc and saw that it was available at the nearest CompUSA half a mile away (they were going to say something about the online being OOS but then I told them it's at the store a few blocks away) and gave me the 110% difference. It's really great for me that I have so many stores in close proximity of each other (I work in midtown manhattan NYC so there's a BB and Compusa within blocks of each other).

For others on the fence about PM'ing, remember! You're a CAG! You go for the cheapest deal possible! And with BB selling crackdown for $40, that extra 10% on the $22.50 is significant enough for me to PM anyday. As long as you do it before Saturday, I don't believe that BB can deny you since it's an in store price and available online as well, not an ad or circular.

[jjz203]

$16.52 after pricematch at BB (I accounted for NY 8.375% sales tax) and DO NOT forget to go for the pricegrabber rebate while it's still around. There's something that makes you smile and give you that warm fuzzy feeling from getting a PG rebate which drops the price of the game down to $11.52 total for me. That's cheaper than ebay will ever be for a brand new copy.

[daminion]

Oh, sorry. I just assumed since you had a gamertag listed.

- Prey is a good FPS, you should be able to find it for cheaper though.
- Gears Of War is a favorite for most people but I really didn't like the cover system/third person. You should probably keep it.

Thanks. Yea that's my current original Xbox tag.

[MikeC]

In for Crackdown. The closest CompUSA is 25 miles from me. Fortunately, I'm going that way tomorrow anyway.

[Eleo]

Meh, I couldn't get anyone to price match. I tried to point out that it was CompUSA's in-store price but they didn't care. I also think they knew there really weren't any CompUSA's in the immediate area, so they probably knew they weren't actually losing any business to a "competitor".

[golddbz2000]

I just this pricematched at my local BB for 18.XX out the door. No hassle, No haggle, just straight up niceness to the cashier.

This was at Perimeter BB for the ATL CAGs...and I snagged the last copy. Proly should check other BB's around the area if you want to PM this.

BTW, they just closed the CompUSSR that was .2 miles away a few months ago. Actually there isn't a store located in GA anymore. but the cashier didn't care, go figure.

[EddieT]

Damn... that is a good deal.

[Eleo]

Man CompUSAs seem to be closing everywhere. Google maps shows a few locations that don't actually exist anymore. I wonder how they're still in business at all.

[jeff0514]

Is the Pricegrabber rebate no longer available? i'm not seeing it at the link earlier in this thread.

[BigDirty]

Was able to price match at Sears and it kicked the price down to $15.32 pre tax - it took them a while to do it though.

[CrimsonPaw]

What's funny is that it's available on their Business page, but for $39.99. The customer service lady I talked to yesterday tried selling me that one, but when I pointed out that it doesn't have the discount she more or less said I was SOL.

[jdawgg76]

Is the Pricegrabber rebate no longer available? i'm not seeing it at the link earlier in this thread.

Didn't see a rebate either and searching rebates showed no Xbox 360 rebates available. I'm new to PG. Am I missing something here?

[soccerstud652]

Does compusa send a shipping confirmation?

[Y2K Falcon]

Successful PM at the "Lakeline" BB in North Austin. Took the page linked by the OP showing the price, and also did the "Check store availability" to show it was available at both local Austin stores.

Thanks, OP!

I didn't bother with the "purchase, return for the extra $2.50 for the 10% of the difference". Under $19 after tax was just fine by me.

[goengland]

Was able to price match at Sears and it kicked the price down to $15.32 pre tax - it took them a while to do it though.

Successfully did a PM through phone from Sears. Was intended to do a local store pickup to avoid shipping. But was told shipping is only 99cents. Save me
a trip, good deal :-)

[CrimsonPaw]

I just called Sears and they're "doing further research" for the pricematch. I had to tell them that I'm in Downer's Grove (Chicago) and I was going to send it to my "brother" ..... why do they have to make it so damn hard to pricematch a game at a place that is 150 miles away from me :D?

[Masterkyo]

SEARS pricematch online price too even local store 250 miles or from different states.

[kaw]

I used Google Chekout, and got a shipping notice at 5:12PM today (shipped through FedEx).

[KingofOldSchool]

So do I just need to send the link to the webpage to Sears Online in order to get the online price match?

[PyroGamer]

????? You'll have to explain that one. These two games couldn't be more different than the other.

Seriously. Where were you going with this? I'm not in total disagreement as I happen to enjoy the two games, but for completely different reasons... I guess there could be some latent connections between physically upgrading your body, and firing projectiles, but the comparisons stop there.

lol, wow. I totally thought the thread title said "Condemned", not "Crackdown".

I told you guys I'm dyslexic... or maybe just really tired at the time.

[GLOCKGLOCK]

Got a big time shutdown at the local BB tonight when trying to PM. The woman called the ONLY local CompUSA and it wasn't in stock so I got denied. Of course there used to be 4-5 in this area but now they have all shut down. I tried to talk through it but the woman copped a big time 'tude with me. Said some smart ass thing like "Well I know it says its available for in store pick up but not locally, maybe if you drive to minnesota you can get it" (meanwhile we are in Pennsylvania). Ugh. :bomb:

Luckily the local Sears has it in stock so I will just run down there tomorrow AM! :bouncy:

[Eleo]

Hm, why are people having so much success with Sears? I don't even shop at the one near us because the customer service is notoriously abysmal :(

I never would have thought it either. It's still impossible to find someone in electronics sometimes, but I might start doing all of my PMs there just because of how easy it was.

YES! Got mine priced matched at Sears today. Was so easy and painless to do, the lady didn't even ask me to show her the compusa website. She just asked how much it was and she put it in and just had to ask for a managers apporval. Got it for $16.31 with tax. The only downside of this if I wanted to be picky would be that when she called for a manager, it took a while before the manger showed up and approved it, but it was worth the wait. Thank you so much OP and everyone that said to pm at Sears

Wow, now that was some fast shipping. Found it on my doorstep this morning.

Thanks little_krampy and jeffblack for the deal!

[KingofOldSchool]

So do I just need to send the link to the webpage to Sears Online in order to get the online price match?

Anyone??

I forgot to goto CompUSA when I was out by there yesterday and now this will be only way of picking this up.

[alfonsosoriano]

I think they only price match in store^.

It says that you can do it online too, but I just don't know how they go about doing that.

Actually what i did was i emailed first to get the approval. Then called in to place the order, was told full amount would need to be charged 1st, then the PM difference will be credited back in couple days.

I had a gift card with best buy and they said no to pricematch. Sears too easy, show the ad and got it for 16.xx. The manager was cool too. That's my new pricematching store now.

[Eleo]

OK, I got someone to pick these games up for me. Although Viva Pinata and PGR3 are listed as 16.99 on CompUSA's website (and even higher price in the database in the store), they both rang up for $12.74. Wasn't expecting that at all. Made out; three great games for ~$45.

[GLOCKGLOCK]

I was able to get the PM to work at the local sears today. Last copy of Crackdown too. Rung up at 39.99, told the clerk that CompUSA had it for 17.49 and showed the ad. She said they only match B&M deals and I showed her the "avaiable for in store pickup" from the print out. She flipped through the printout I gave her, considered calling the local CompUSA, but just ended up putting it through for 17.49 plus PM guarantee so all in it was just over $16!

Great deal! :D Thanks OP :applause: and all the CAG's who brough up the Sears PM. :bouncy: It sure helped me since BB shut me down yesterday.

[JBaby]

My Compusa had one. Thanks OP!

[Eleo]

It turns out I got the limited edition of Viva Pinata. Dunno if it's a YMMV thing? However the CompUSA site does depict the limited edition case, so maybe there's a good chance that's what you get.

[KhelCheap]

Nice deal, but all my local stores closed too. I'll wait for the next one.

[jlai]

After unsuccesful pricematch attempts at the Best Buy, Target, Sears, AND Wal-Mart (mostly because they closed all the CompUSA's around the Cerritos, CA area) I was about to try the Sears E-Mail Pricematch only to find that the price is back to 34.99 at CompUSA. Earlier when I was at the stores it was still 17.49 too, I guess they just changed it recently.

:cry: :cry:

[ljames2332]

yea, the deal ends on saturday the 25th

[shadowrage]

PMed at BB. I couldn't imagine paying full price for Crackdown.
I've been playing Bioshock for 2 straight weeks and needed a break.

Crackdowns not bad but it gets repetitive fast. Even though Bioshock is set in an 'aquarium' it's more sanbox, than the actual sanbox game.

I say buy Crackdown but do not, under any circumstances, play Bioshock before.

[MikeC]

So, I ordered Crackdown online for store pickup. I was looking through the store for some other things before I picked it up and stumbled across a clearance bin that said buy 2 games get an extra 25% off. I found both Crackdown and Call of Duty 3 (which I've really wanted but been putting off buying) in that bin. So after some hasle at the front desk, I get them to give me the extra 25% off CoD, but not Crackdown because the sign said it could not be combined with other deals. CoD3 rang up with an original price of $45, but there was a sticker on the outer (anti-theft) case that said $29.99. That brought on more hasle at the register, but end result:
Crackdown: $17.50
CoD3: $23
:D


And you know what the best part is? According to a sticker on the Crackdown case, I can get into the beta for Halo 3!!

What do you mean I'm too late for the beta? SON OF A ****! ;)

Has anyone noticed that Shadowrun and Crackdown have identical covers

They both have a guy jumping in the air with their legs in similar position.

Got my copy of Viva Pinata yesterday from the online store... and it was the Collectors Edition. Thanks again for the info OP.

[soccerstud652]

Received my CD on Monday. Ordered CE VP today - can't pass that up!

[CrimsonPaw]

Still pissed at myself for not pulling the trigger on Crackdown and VP earlier, they sat in my cart for about 30 minutes while I was him-hawing about getting it, only to have it removed from my cart when I went to place the order.

Oh well, I'll get these some day.

BTW, those two covers look NOTHING ALIKE, aside from the 360 logo.

[ducci]

I placed an order for Crackdown on the 23rd - it's still "in progress" in google checkout. Anyone else like this?

[jdawgg76]

Since this is pretty much dead and not big enough for a trade thread. . .

Ended up with an extra I could trade. It is still unopened. I'm specifically looking for the Lost Planet CE and Gears of War CE clearanced at 9.90 at Toys R Us B&Ms, but am open to other offers. PM please.

[triforcer]

shit, it's dead oh well.

[Masterkyo]

[dfgnhjgjhgg]
