I'm wondering if FF X-2 will be a Greatest Hit soon since new FF games will be released shortly. If that's the case, I'm holding out for Best Buy so I can use the GGC and get it for $15.

RS3BA for 26.88 is a pretty good deal. I paid 40 on release day and it has been well worth it.

Hey trust, you sure are slacking with these ads. 6 days in advance. That's just weak.

BTW: I totally recommend Stitch for GBA, if you like Metal Slug, you WILL like Stitch.

Vinny

FFX-2 for $17? I'll have to check it out then, I guess. Will it be a Greatest Hit version or just the regular version?

Good, a deal on Futurama season 4. its about time this piece of shit came out!

Edge
08-16-2004, 11:40 AM
Wow, nice deal, hope FFX-2 drops to $20 universally so that you can use a GGC on it. GTA Double Pack isn't a bad deal either...though I'm kicking myself for not getting it like 6 months ago when it was on sale at Best Buy for $28 before GGC...

Edit: talking about the Xbox version of GTA Double Pack.

The sale is only in effect during next week, so you're gonna have to wait. You could buy the game at Circuit City or Best Buy today and have it price matched next week, though.

I was going to ask the same thing. I'm going to try either way. Black Arrow for $21.XX sounds good to me.

Sweet, looks like it is finally time to get FFX-2 and for the price, maybe duel masters as well.

Wait, Futurama 4 is also out this week. Poorhouse look out.

swick
08-16-2004, 01:51 PM
Heh, considering Driv3r's ratings, I don't think it's worth picking up at any price. I may have to reconsider on FFX-2, though... Hm.

GTA double pak is mighty good for that price. I wonder if I could finish it before San Andreas comes out. As for Red dead revolver, I still don't think it is worth that price.

Staind204
08-16-2004, 03:07 PM
Hmm is RDR worth the $26.99? I've been wanting to try it out. I also need to get the Futurama volume 4 since I have the other 3.. I'll have every episode then :-)

scdoanintendo
08-16-2004, 03:12 PM
I am not sure if I should get rainbow 6 3 for $17 or just shell out the extra $10 for RDR. Any advice? By the way I'm new to rainbow six.

Hmm, I'm wondering if you can buy FF X-2 at CC for 49.99 and then bring it back on Sunday to do a 110% PM to Target. You could end up getting it for 13.57.

BustaUppa
08-16-2004, 04:19 PM
FYI, Target.com lists FFX-2 at $30
so you'd get raincheck for about 43% off if they don't have it.

That's pretty nice... looks like I'll be heading to target near the end of the week!

I can finally justify getting FF X-2. I just can't see me liking this game, but I do want to try it and at that price, I can't pass it up.

You could buy it at CC but not for $49.99, it's $29.99 there now, but you could still buy it then price match it on Sunday with Targets ad and save $1.50.

fireball343
08-16-2004, 07:07 PM
you go to the store and look and see if they have any of the advertised games out of stock, if you find any you ask them for a raincheck. their policy is that you can get a substitue at the same PERCENTAGE OFF. so if a 50 dollar game is 26 dollars, it's about 48% off any other game they have.

Masterkyo
08-16-2004, 07:21 PM

I got Driv3r for $10 used at GameRush (it was complete and in PERFECT condition) and I don't feel ripped off if that gives a clue to anyone. Seriously, the game isn't that bad. I would give it a 7/10 for what I've played so far. I's not a great game or even a good game IMO, but it's still fun to play. GTA is better, so since they are the same price, GTA DP would be the better choice.

Tespo125

Does Best Buy accept the GGC after pricematching? If so I'm going to get both Driv3r and Red Dead Revolver.

shrike4242
08-16-2004, 09:05 PM
Methinks it's time to pick up RS3:BA and RDR at CC or BB, then PM it on the flip side on Sunday.

RS3:BA would be $25.57 off of the $39.99 price. (CC Price)
RDR would be $24.57 off of the $49.99 price. (CC Price)

It's not the PM + GGC routine, since that's quite YMMV, though that PM works out. Done it so far quite a few times, due to the good Trust info.

to get $5.00 off Driv3r. It expires on the 23rd, so be quick about it once the sale starts on Sunday, brings the price down to $21.88. Not bad.

ok let me see if I got this right. If target doesn't have a game that was in the their ad. I get a raincheck coupon for any other game for 48%? Then I can use it whenever? Damn if that's true this fall is going to be gaming heaven for me.

If people don't know, Target has had a policy (on any advertised item) of offering disappointed customers a "substitute item" in the same category if the advertised item is out of stock. So, if you wanted a certain toy and it was out, you could sub a different toy for the same % off as the advertised one.

Some of us have been getting rainchecks (mostly for out-of-stock games we don't want) and buying substitute games at the % discount. It's working well for me, but abuse seems to have closed this loophole at some other stores. (I bought Riddick for $27, MegaMan for $16, True Crime for $11 . . . the rainchecks that I had were from VC and Manhunt sales.)

The key is to have the electronics personnel send the game up front to the checkouts and get a clueless clerk to ring it up, most will just follow policy and take the % off the game you want.

There have been some interesting ethical discussions about "raincheck abuse." Some CAGers feel this is illegal or immoral or wrong . . . I basically feel that if this is the store policy, we are doing nothing wrong in using it. They must have started this policy with the idea of keeping customers happy and in their store . . . its working with me

But I don't see anyone complaining about "abuse" of Best Buy's Gamer's Gift Card coupon. In the BB case, you put a small amount of money on a "gift" card which comes with a $5 off coupon for software or accessories $19.99 and up. Most people are redeeming the coupon themselves not giving the card and coupon as a gift.

Both of these are exploiting a weakness is store policy . . . are they wrong?

Presumably this means the 8 episodes that were actually done, maybe even a few more if they finished up the first season for Sci-Fi network or something. Anyone know how many episodes are in this set?

Thanks for the post. I already have the PC version of KOTOR but for $15 I think I'll grab the Xbox version too. Should be fun to play with the controller.

Bend over and I'll show you!

Or he could get it the easy way by picking up on of those free Gamepro magazines that they have sitting around at just about every best buy? That might not be as fun for you though. Meh, whatever floats your boat.

Ok, so I use the XBL coupon at BB to get KOTOR for $10. I use a pricematch at TRU to get FF X-2 and XBOX GTA so I can use my TRU Visa for a 4% kickback (or is the combined Reward Zone + TRU Visa 1% a better deal?) then sell my PS2 GTA II to make up some of the difference.

And BTW find a full-time dependable paycheck.

Busy Sunday.

Only the stupidest people ask questions about the Target raincheck. Apparently its a real tough concept to grasp.

I'm picking up Super Monkey Ball 2 for sure, and I'm thinking of getting Rainbow six 3. I was wondering should I get RS3 or get black arrow, I haven't played either yet also do alot of ppl still play regular RS3 on XBL with black arrow out?

Hastings sells used copies of Driv3r for 29

I will probably use the $3 Platinum Hits coupon (from MADDEN coupon book) at Best Buy to get KOTOR for $12....still have not played it as I'm not a BIG RPG fan, but it could be good if I get REALLY bored one day ;)

I'm wondering if FF X-2 will be a Greatest Hit soon since new FF games will be released shortly. If that's the case, I'm holding out for Best Buy so I can use the GGC and get it for $15.

I doubt it. It took FFX a year+.

Vampire Hunter D

Just in case that SMB2 price is false BestBuy.com and Videogameadvantage.com has it for only 20 bucks which is the price ive been looking for. Maybe if theres a code for free shipping that'd be nice.

How much is the Goodfellas DVD at Best Buy? I think the ad says 'Low Price' or something like that. If anyone here bought it, lmk how much it was. I'll call them in the morning if I don't know by then.

Why not use the $5 Xbox Live coupon from the other promo guide/coupon book and get it for $10?

Not all of us HAVE this, since CAG tend to grab them all up at once.

Quite a bit of people are going after that $16.88 SMB2 at Target, well if you wanna save a couple more bucks just get it with the GGC at BB. I was so tempted to pick it up but they had quite a few at my BB, both PC and non. The non-PC was also marked down to $19.99.

Is Star Wars: KOTR Platinum hits?

Does US Shaolin Soccer have any extras? I already have the import.

Absolutely no extras. :(

All it has is the following:

US Cut Version (roughly 85 minutes)
English and French dubbed tracks

Original Hong Kong Version's Director's Cut (about 110 minutes)
Original Cantonese track

However, I have heard a few reports that the English subtitles on the Hong Kong version are actually "dubtitles," which are captions of the English dub. If they are dubtitles, then you won't be getting the correct translation of the original track (they tend to alter or make up dialogue in the English dubbed versions of movies).

However, if the subs are a true translation, then I would pick it up, since the subtitles on the Hong Kong DVD weren't that great (but good enough to understand what is being said).

Definitely keep your import DVD no matter what you do. It'll just rise in value.

Anyone had any luck getting KOTOR for $10?

Also, you don't need the game to be out of stock to get a Target raincheck. Just ask the customer service people up front, they never bother to check.

Of course, actually getting someone to let you use the raincheck anymore is a whole different story.

.

Yes, just got it at Best buy for $10 with the $5 off Xbox live software coupon. The KOTOR Platinum Hits case is actually green, which is cool, I didn't care much for those grey PH cases. And as a bonus, I found a penny Rebel Strike strategy guide hidden in amongst all the Shrek 2/Spiderman 2 guides!

Just a note that some Best Buy doens't have the coupon. I went to the Miliptas, CA Best Buy and they don't have any more coupons.

I got that $5 off Xbox live coupon and used it towards a 3 month kit. But now I want the starter kit. I found the coupon 2 weeks ago, and I went back not a few days ago and it wasn't there. So YMMV for those coupons. Just look for a little magazine thing with football on it, and Games of the Year between BB and GamePro.com

Are those the coupon book / magazine-looking thingies that are just sitting there inside in-store displays? If so I'll just pick one up and use it; KOTOR for $10 would be sweet.

And for the person who was asking, Driv3r is the best raincheck (barely). I checked Target's prices online and it ends up like this

FFX-2: 44% off
Driv3r: 46% off

Pretty much the same; a nice opportunity to grab two rainchecks without looking all sneaky!
