Interesting. Stootsi's deal is a random PC game for a cent. Condition New. You might end up getting something good, but chances are you'll get some kiddie game.

This site is always legit. Its like amazon, but the difference is that Stootsi only posts a deal for one specific item per day, where as amazon has a wide variety of items, but for retail price (Unless you count the Gold Box deals). Also, Stootsi sometimes has a thing where they post new deals every 10 minutes, but the deal only lasts for that specific time frame. (Example: Say that they put up a deal for an xbox controller for 5 bucks. 10 minutes later they will put up a new deal on a rice cooker for 15, but the deal on the controller will disappear)
The only thing you have to worry about on this site, is not affected by the site at all. And that's shipping the object. Blame UPS or Fedex or whoever delivers your package.

This could be interesting, in for 1. Of course, I bought that 360 Madden 07 for $2 even though I don't really play sports games.

I kinda want one of these but the 200x shipping kinda kills it, even though that is fairly cheap shipping wise. Hmm...

Isn't Stootsi run by some CAGer? I'd trust that over your average sketchy internet site.

I was in................................. until you posted that list. Thank you, you just saved me $2.01 - I'd rather just throw my $2 and a penny out of a car window then to get one of those games.

Some of that list clearly makes no sense because it says RIGHT on the originally linked page that they won't send random expansion packs or anything like that.

There are some good games on the list, like Deus Ex, Civilization II, and Starlancer. It wouldn't be a waste of money if you got those, unless you have them already.

I've heard that past the first level the game actually begins to get quite decent. I'd like to get Daikatana for $2.01 just to see that.

Yes, but even if, it's still random for those who buy one regardless because they'd still have no idea what they're going to get -- crap game or not. Nobody in their right mind expects gems out of these, it's just the surprise people are paying for. Sort of like crane games, I suppose.

Hell, it was just $2. Even the often crappy budget software you find in big boxes cost at least $5, usually. Even if you got the crappiest PC game ever, it would still be worth the laugh.

I got the "classic" Alias game. Oh God! ALIAS! That show sucked! This game most likely was the one that made Acclaim go to hell...
EDIT: Just checked eBay. The game is going for 35 cents plus free shipping! I can't stop laughing!
I'll give away the game for free. Just pay the $2 shipping and it's yours! Brand new! Sealed! Never played! (For more reasons than one)

Got the same. Usually my rule of thumb is that if a $60 game brings me 15 hours of enjoyment, its worth it. So if this game brings me a few minutes of intrigue, I'll consider it worth it by default I guess. :D

I do believe that a donation to a charitable fund would have been better way to spend the two bucks, but everyone is free to spend their money how they wish, and if anyone somehow scores a copy of Big Rigs they would have successfully won this thread.

It isn't about the destination, its about the journey. And it was a wonderful ride.
I installed Alias last night and thought I'd give it a try. I got dizzy after 15 minutes, uninstalled, and threw it away. I know I could have used the $2 in a better way, but it was fun being suprised.
