[dcyphr]

Thanks...I was just about to get around to doing that. Been a busy day at work. =(

[CaoPi]

funny I was at GS the other day and someone asked if GTA 4 was coming out for Wii. :lol:

[Larrabee213]

I am in serious need of the 20/30/40% trade in deal for 360/PS3 games

[Ed_]

WWF Smackdown? :lol:

[oscargrouch]

WWF Smackdown? :lol:

Whoops fixed.

And the coupon is just meh... Maybe I'll get a game maybe not... Don't understand why my GS has like no games that are complete for the PSP....

[Callandor]

Guitar Hero III Wireless Controller >>>> Wii >>>> $59.99

While still a complete ripoff for what everyone describes as a "glorified classic controller shell", I'm shocked that GS, of all places, has this for less than the $69.99 that I've seen at Target and Walmart.

That coupon almost makes me want to buy a PSP tonight. :D

[SL4IN]

This is the coupon I've been waiting for.

[DrNo888]

Damn..just bought Metal Slug Anthology a couple of days ago. Coulda have save another $4 or so. Oh well.

[DrNo888]

Buy for $60, return to Red Octane for $132. Not that I am or will be doing it, but others have.

[Ed_]

This is the coupon I've been waiting for.

Ditto.8-)

[CrimsonPaw]

Seriously, when the fuck is Killzone Liberation ever going to drop in price?

[cheapa$$]

Just bought GoW:CoO yesterday. Should have held out another day so I could have saved another 7 or 8 bucks. Otherwise I'll be looking out for Crisis Core maybe I'll get lucky.

[Slappybob]

Dang , 2 useful coupons in a row....

I might have to spend more money this week :(

[OGHowie]

If I could only find a Metal Slug Anthology PSP in any stores.

I forgot, is this stackable with an Edge card?

[crunchewy]

Ok, now we need a 25% off DS and GBA games coupon. Thank!

[DirkBelig]

Bleah! Another week, another useless coupon for me. Until they deliver the 25% off used PS3 games coupon, I'm going to keep posting this:

Yes this stacks with the Edge card

[bigdaddybruce44]

Damn, good coupon, but I don't know if there is really anything else I want on the PSP. Just picked up some good stuff the last time they had this a couple of months ago. Still waiting on a PS3 coupon...

[RelentlessRolento]

oh shit... I'll be using that coupon.

[xl_prankster_lx]

Good coupon although I have no PSP.

Bioshock is good at that price.

[lockey]

Damn..just bought Metal Slug Anthology a couple of days ago. Coulda have save another $4 or so. Oh well.
you could return and rebuy with the coupon.

[lordxixor101]

Not as interested in the coupon this week (haven't been playing my PSP much lately, since breaking my USB cord so I can't put music/podcasts on it). But, Bioshock at $30 is tempting. But, I've bought way too many games over the past couple of weeks

Assassin's Creed $30 ( used deal 2 weeks ago).
Metroid Prime 3 $30 (used deal last week)
Star Fox Assault $13ish (coupon)
Mario Kart Double Dash (bought at GC)
Donkey Konga (bought at GC)

That, and I dug out SSBM last night and enjoyed it. Along with an unfinished Saints Row and Endless Ocean begging to be played, along with some other backlog.

I think I'll have to force myself to pass here.

[oscargrouch]

I'm hoping against hope for Tales of the World, but last time we had this coupon my GS only had it incomplete.

Hoping for PS3 or DS coupon next week...

[luffy_kun]

mario kart needs a deal.

[y2julio]

Can I use this coupon + my EDGE card on the DualShock 3 controller?

[sweeper1303]

sweet just bought a psp yesterday

[Halo05]

Can I use this coupon + my EDGE card on the DualShock 3 controller?

No for a number of reasons.

[Ryukahn]

Bleh, my local EB had Valkyrie Profile Lenneth a few days ago. This coupon with edge card would have made it a sweet deal.

[y2julio]

No for a number of reasons.
EDGE card says 10% off Used Games and Accesories, though.

[Serpentor]

Can someone confirm that th MGS4 LE is indeed a GS exclusive? Thanks in advance!

[Serpentor]

never mind, it looks like it's GS exclusive...

http://www.gamestop.com/gs/weeklyad/current/040408/default.aspx?affid=3002&affID=77777&sourceID=FKSJxY2VJAk-pjde3DoOhrApGqSQSWuENA

[oscargrouch]

Can someone confirm that th MGS4 LE is indeed a GS exclusive? Thanks in advance!

I think this particular "package" is a GS exclusive. I'm sure with a release this big other retailers will have their own flavors that are "exclusive" but maybe not the exact same extras.

[oscargrouch]

EDGE card says 10% off Used Games and Accesories, though.


If you find a Dual Shock 3 used, you could get 10% off. This coupon has nothing to do with accessories tho.

[Serpentor]

EDGE card says 10% off Used Games and Accesories, though.


dude, we all love extra savings, but getting different coupons stack on top of each other is really YMMV... The 10% new memebers e-mail letter not suppose to combine with the Edge card discounts. If you get that working, kudos, else move on. The other on-line code does stack, the 16% off, see Cheapy's link. Which gives you a whoppy 26% plus free shipping. Only drawback is that you can't see the discs until you get the order (in the store, you can check them before you buy used stuffs).

[Serpentor]

If you find a Dual Shock 3 used, you could get 10% off. This coupon has nothing to do with accessories tho.

that's what i was going to tell him... Used DS3? come on! The new ones are not even on the shelves yet. Anyhow, i think he's confused with

"used game and accessories"

By that, it really means used game and used accessories. Case closed?

[Damian]

EDGE card says 10% off Used Games and Accesories, though.
And what does the coupon say? Is a DualShock controller a PSP game or a UMD?

[Serpentor]

I think this particular "package" is a GS exclusive. I'm sure with a release this big other retailers will have their own flavors that are "exclusive" but maybe not the exact same extras.


ouch, my wallet is hurting... being a MG sucker, they should know how to milk this thing! I really hope this is the only LE, else i might end up spending a lot of cash for the same thing :(

anyhow, somebody really really need to put together a deal/info thread for MGS4, please!

[nikkai]

GS/EB have been doing decent lately - Scored Suikoden V w/ Graphic Book for less than $20 w/ the last coupon + Edge. I'm a Suikoden Nut.

[awp]

Lost price drop LOL. What's it been out 3 weeks and it's already dropped $20??? If I had purchased it at $60, I'd be pissed.

[plasticbathmonki]

Good coupon. I don't own a PSP, but for those that do, this is good.

[y2julio]

And what does the coupon say? Is a DualShock controller a PSP game or a UMD?
Got confused about the coupon. It's friday, been through lots of crap at work. Mind is all wacky.

[Snake2715]

Could be a good copoun...

[Tsukento]

Useless for me since I don't own a PSP. Coupon would've been better if it applied to all handheld games.

Would be nice to be able to pick up Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap for under $25.

[briandadude]

Just got back from checking out 2 Gamestops in Plano, TX. Collin Creek Mall had Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth for $24.99 used & Katamari for $14.99; I picked up Katamari for ~$12.

[lunker]

Amazing coupon with perfect timing: I had some credit leftover and I'm preparing for a long vacation in a few weeks. :) I didn't realize Disgaea had a price-drop, so it's $30 new and $27 used, so after coupon and Edge discount I got:

Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness: $17.54
Gurumin: $8.44

Thanks, OP! :D

[sixteenvolt420]

funny I was at GS the other day and someone asked if GTA 4 was coming out for Wii. :lol:


Hmm, i think i'd actually buy that along with my PS3 copy. I know i enjoyed Manhunt 2 on the Wii with all of it's movement, and definately enjoyed the Wii version of Resident Evil 4 alot more than the ps2 version. GTA IV, though it obviously isn't coming out for the Wii, why not, other than the fact it'd have to be a multiple disc set for the Wii, and obviously the graphics would be all cartoony.

I'm already planning on buying Ghostbusters for both the PS3 and Wii.

[Tsukento]

and obviously the graphics would be all cartoony.
Uh, wut?

You mean like the cartoony graphics of Resident Evil 4, ManHunt 2 and Bully?

[sixteenvolt420]

Uh, wut?

You mean like the cartoony graphics of Resident Evil 4, ManHunt 2 and Bully?


Well, i guess i didn't mean like super mario cartoony, just not obviously as well done as the 360 and ps3 will be. And like i said, i enjoyed manhunt and re4 on the wii. I have yet to play Bully for any system, but i may have to try it for the wii.

[RelentlessRolento]

wow shit... time to get high profile games. I want alot of PSP games, and this is perfecto.

[oscargrouch]

Unfortunately my local GS had nuttin. Unless you want incompletes. Man I wish they would stop taking incomplete games. How do you lose a PSP case and Manual?

-- Actually the used games were probably stolen and traded in for cash. For some reason it seems like there are always shady people in my GS trading in handheld stuff for cash....

[joshnorm]

Decent coupon again this week. I guess that next week will be a 360 coupon

[vex11]

I picked up Wipeout Pure for $4.54 after coupon + edge so I'm pretty happy with this coupon.

[JEKKI]

I hope I can find me a used copy of Monster Hunter 2...

it's supposed to be like the most popular game in Japan

[JaytheGamefan]

Bioshock for $30 is tempting, but I think I'd rather spend that money on GTA IV.

[forumreader]

Grabbed Jeanne D'Arc, nothing else interesting had cases. Time to check the other store...

[Chewpathingy]

you have got to be kidding me i just bought bioshock used from the website for 35$. i mean like just did. damn you interwebzzzzzzz!! KHANNN

[Bravelionheart]

Grabbed non-GH, complete copies of Daxter and Ridge Racer for $6.50 each, woohoo! I plan on hitting them up again tomorrow.

[Bune]

can someone repost that image for the coupon? I can't get any image links in my GS email to work since they got new servers or something. thanks in advance.

never mind, I got it to work.

[Lost Loser]

My two closest GS's usually have poorly stocked used PSP sections. Hell, their PSP sections as a whole are usually hard to get to as they have the demo PS3 and some signs in front of them. Too bad I have to work all tomorrow, I'll have to swing by on Sunday. Just by looking through what pops up on my store locator, here are the prices I would come by (including the sales tax in my city):


$6.21
Alien Syndrome
Metal Gear Ac!d²

$6.90
Darkstalkers Chronicle: Chaos Tower
Daxter
EA Replay
Exit

$8.98
Dead Head Fred

$10.38
Every Extend Extra

$12.43
Capcom Classics Collection Reloaded
Capcom Classics Collection Remixed
Capcom Puzzle World
Crush
Patapon
Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords
Street Fighter Alpha 3 MAX
Ultimate Ghosts'N Goblins

$12.55
Megaman: Maverick Hunter X
Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops

$17.27
Final Fantasy II
Parappa the Rapper
Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters


Hell, getting Darkstalkers, Daxter, and Exit for $20.70 is a great deal, or I could go for one of the many nice games Capcom has put out for the system, all under $13.

[nflsonic]

Time to see if they have any used MGS: PO! Thanks OP!

[JEKKI]

six gamestops in my proximity and none of them have Monster Hunter 2 :cry:

[Distrato]

Damn it!! I just spent $30 on BF2 Modern Combat and Earth Defense Force :( Oh well those games rock.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Yes this stacks with the Edge card

Sunova gun. I was just ttold by a manager that it doesn't stack.

AT least I still ended up getting Chains of O for $26.

[Halo05]

You could always return it and rebuy it with another copy of the coupon and your card.

Anyhow, I found Wild Arms XF and Silent Hill Origins for a total of ~40 after card and coupon. Pretty good deal, unfortunately I only have two nearby EBstops.

Aww man I was looking for Wild Arms XF but no dice. Oh well.

[Sam111111]

Nice coupon. I don;t think ill be using it, though, don't need any PSP games at the moment. I wish they'd have a coupon for off 360 games, or for extra $$ off trades, because I need to trade in GRAW 2 and some other crap to get Oblivion.
...

[sur4k]

The GS in downtown Seattle had nothing, but the EB had some good stuff. Was tempted to get Exit, FFT:War of the Lions, Wild Arms XF, or Castlevania but didn't pull the trigger. Also, my printer is out of ink so I would've needed a get a nice cashier who'd enter the code without a coupon.

[JEKKI]

geez.. apparently Monster Hunter Freedom 2 is quite the rare PSP game.

a used copy on ebay just went for $45!

[briandadude]

Saw some great games in Richardson today. I picked up Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow that was marked $17.99 used, price mistake?!

:)

[OGHowie]

Damn, it was $34.99 at mine.

[davyd]

Bioshock for ~$25 was the right price for me. Picked up a complete and very good copy today. Never bothered before since my room mate really spoiled the game for me, but I couldn't pass up this price.

[RelentlessRolento]

Is MGSPO+ worth it if I have the original? he multiplayer was so-so in the original so I don't know what to think.

[JEKKI]

it's jus more levels with no storyline...

pick up, play, collect type of game

[nightwarrior]

Just picked up FFT: War of the Lions for about 24$.

[JEKKI]

I'm gonna call sum gamestops tomorrow in other towns to see if they got Monster Hunter.

it's as if I am hunting monsters too!

except now it's in real life instead of game!

[schuerm26]

Son of a B!!!!!

I didn't read the coupon and assumed that it was valid for 3 games!!! Damn you gamestop employee for not telling me when I used it (and damn myself for not realizing it when he stated the price)!!!!

Ended up with Tales of The World and Brave Story as the discounted games and got Sid Meiers Pirates for normal price. Im not pissed I got Pirates but if the employee had said something I would have just gone back tomorrow and gotten it. Oh well, My fault 100% I just wished the employee had said something. I made the assumption it was like the PS2, GC, XBOX coupons and good for 3. :cry:

[sj41]

Another good coupon for me. I got Pikmin 2 last week, and I think I'll pick up Field Commander or God of War this week.

[RelentlessRolento]

return it and then turn around and use the coupon on it.

[schuerm26]

return it and then turn around and use the coupon on it.

I would but I was about 25 miles from my house this morning when I got it. Do other gamestops allow returns on another stores receipts? If so Ill do it tomorrow, but Im not sure if they will let me. Im not going to waste the gas money on 50 miles or so to go back to the one where I got it.

[bigdaddybruce44]

You can return items, bought either in-store or online, to any GS store.

[benjamouth]

I grabbed Snoopy Vs The Red Baron for $11.69 and Silent Hill Origins for $16.XX after coupon and Edge card.

If anyone is interested the new Gamestop at Brandywine DE has a complete copy of Metal Slug Anthology.

[JEKKI]

I found a copy of MHF2! whoo~!!!

but... it's UMD only... generic casing and shyt...

does anybody kno if I will be missing out on much if I do not have a manual?? I can print out the case insert myself but I'm still debating whether or not to put the cash down on incompleteness...

[Stingermck]

Picked up Tomb Raider Anniversary and Metal Slug Anthology for $11.69 each :)

[Lost Loser]

I picked up Capcom Puzzle World and Final Fantasy Tactics for a combined $36.60. I saved $18.55. The cashier tried to tell me the coupon wouldn't stack with my Edge card. I asked him to try it anyway, and I ended up being right. No one cheats me out of my extra $4 of savings.

[niceguyshawne]

Pick up Metal Slug Anthology yesterday for $12.50 after tax.

[Halo05]

This remains an awesome coupon, late update but I found FF7 Crisis Core for ~24 after coupon and card. I'm debating heading out the the mall EBstop for God of War.

[thedream77]

Scored Metal Slug for 11.69. I thought I was going to pick-up the UMD movie of Silent Hill for $6, but the sales guy said it was "new" and didn't qualify. I mentioned the case was beat to shit, but he didn't care because it had a "new" sticker on it. Gstop's definition of "new" just cracks me up at times. Good thing they don't sell fruits or vegetables, I could see them trying to sell a half-eaten banana as new........

[dpadilla4]

picked up patapon with the coupon, sweet

[RelentlessRolento]

I'm going to swing by 3 EBs tomorrow that are far from me since all the ones near me suck with their selection of PSP games.

[Foo228]

I don't understand why the site has used patapon up but Not for Sale is shown by it

[taz98spin]

Picked up Silent Hill Origins and Valhalla Knights!

Bought a copy of MHF2 too, but the UMD was damaged so returned it right away.

[illini1010]

I just picked up Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters used and Bioshock used all for the low low price of 36 bucks... WHAT A DEAL!!!

They let me use the 25% off coupon for the psp game, then they let me use the 10% off coupon, and on top of it all they let me use the edge card!!!! so thats a grand total of 45% off of Ratchet and Clank (orginally 17.99) and 20% off of Bioshock (originally 29.99)... just awesome!

[JEKKI]

the adventure continues~!!

yesterday morning I called up all the gamestops in like 60 mile radius and ONE had a used copy!

it was the store rite by my work too!

except for the fact that I JUST QUIT!! ... my last day was FRIDAY!!

wtf so now I should be enjoying the stay at home life only to go back there (like an hour drive btw) like I'm still working >_<

and the copy wasnt even complete too... at least that's what the guy on the phone said.

I had to debate whether or not I wanted to go... but I ended up going anyway...

and when I got there.. they dont even have it!!! I taked to the guy and he as like "ummm... well it shows in our system that we got it... but I guess we don't"

-_-...

I then ate Pink Berry for my first time and it didnt even make me feel much better...

but so before I went home I decided to roll into gamecrazy only to find...

a complete used copy of MHF2!!! and it's only $20, WAY cheaper than GS price after coupons! whooo!!

so in the end, all was good!! and I was like the victorious monster hunter who defeated the T-Rex!

[RelentlessRolento]

good luck JEKKI... the game will consume hours of your life if you get into it. I think I have logged over 200 hours in it.

[tenzor]

I don't understand why the site has used patapon up but Not for Sale is shown by it


the new website revamp for gamestop that occurred last week added the feature to list products on the website that aren't available through gamestop.com so you could still check if your local store has a copy.

[nightwarrior]

i just used it again and got Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness for about $4.00. I had like 14 dollars of trade in credit.

[GaveUpTomorrow]

I picked up a few games with the 25% off coupon: Alien Syndrome $6, Metal Gear Solid: Digital Graphic Novel $10, Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow $14, and Aedis Eclipse: Generation of Chaos $14.

Syphon Filter: LS is a price drop. They had the new copy priced at $19.99, and the used at $17.99. It is priced this way online as well.

The gamestop near me just opened, so they were having a b2g1 on all used games, but it didn't stack with the coupon, so I just got Logan's Shadow there.

[OGHowie]

Syphon Filter: LS is a price drop. They had the new copy priced at $19.99, and the used at $17.99. It is priced this way online as well.

On Gamestop.com? I can't find it up there.

[briandadude]

I think Logan's Shadow for $19.99 new, $17.99 used has got to be a franchise-wide mistake. I have not seen any price drops from any other retailer and the game has not been out long enough to qualify for Sony's Greatest Hits lineup.

[nightwarrior]

i found it used on gamestop.com here

http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=66616

[GaveUpTomorrow]

On Gamestop.com? I can't find it up there.


There ya go. Is that proof enough that is on the site? :P There is no image for the game, but it I just took a screen-shot 1 minute ago, so you should be able to find it.
