CANADA BBV 30% off is back! GamecubeXbox CLEARANCE!

[Lockescythe]

Starting monday all used Gamecube and X-Box games will be pulled and put for sale. Earlier reports including a manager confirmation of a 1.99 sale is now kaboshed by management. So heavy YMMV on the clearance price.

30% off all PPV movies and games is also back starting MONDAY. . (got this from newsletter from BBV but manager confirmed its both games and movies but apparently he was wrong and its movies only so YMMV.)

[Firestorm]

Is the Buy Two Get One off then? >_> Too bad PS2 isn't included =P I don't have any more GCN titles I need.

[arnoldrimmer]

Is this chain wide or could a store choose not to pull them?

[JnJosh]

i'll be getting a bunch of both GCN and Xbox games monday then

[Kekumba]

Hell yeah, I'll be there right when it opens! :)

And with that being said, anyone have any Xbox recommendations?

[MatiasB]

Hey, would people be interested in buying games for each other if we come across them? For example we all make a list of games we hope to buy so if we don't find it in our own local stores maybe someone else in the city has found it and since it retails for 2 dollars would purchase it for them.

Here's my list of gamecube games,the ones in Bold buy instantly, as for the others, please PM me and I'll reply ASAP; killer 7, Metriod Prime, Chibi Robo, Beyond Good & Evil(rare),Viewtiful Joe,Legend of Zelda 4 Swords and Splinter Cell: Double Agent.

[EvilMario]

I'll have to go scout out my Blockbuster today. Baten Kaitos games (both of them) will be at the top of my list. There's a whole bunch of GCN games I've been neglecting to pickup as well, like Wario World, Custom Robo, and silly games like Godzilla:DAMM, and X-Men Legends 2. ^_^

And with that being said, anyone have any Xbox recommendations?

Marrowind: GotY edition (which has the two expansion packs)
Psychonauts (runs much better than the PS2 version)
Phantom Dust
MMAC (the DEFINITIVE version of the collection, but depending on how you feel about the dpad)
Panzar Dragoon Orta
Otogi 1 and 2

off the top of my head and that is assuming they have these games.

[uutf]

Anything good thats backwards compatible with the 360?

[Phorty Ounce]

So ALL Xbox and GC games, not matter what they are are $1.99 used regardless? And say if I saw a GTA Trilogy Pack on the shelf, I could tell them to pull the game and I could purchase it for $1.99 as well?

[EvilMario]

Blockbuster at 1365 Queen St. West, Toronto, is claiming the $1.99 GCN/Xbox sale on Monday, has come to a halt, nationwide. They had all their GCN/Xbox titles pulled already, but this is what they claim.

You guys might want to check around, and see if there's any sort of new memo out. I'll have to check with other Blockbusters around myself.

Edit: Blockbuster at Liberty Village confirms it aswell.

I was just at a Blockbuster here in Calgary and can confirm this is the same thing they told me when I asked them about it

[Lockescythe]

Maybe they are upping it to 2.99 so they don't lose a third of the already ridiculously low price with the 30% off thing.

[Sousanator]

WOW, 1.99 is an awesome deal, especially if I can finder Conker, Fable, or Jade Empire.
What time does Blockbuster open?

[EvilMario]

These guys seemed to believe that the GCN/Xbox titles would still be available to rent for the foreseeable future. I might pop into my local Blockbuster down the street on Monday just to make sure, but oh well. :(

[collector42]

Edmonton Clairview said the Monday sale was called off as well. Came in today's email. No decent games for either platform left there anyway... :cry:

[turgore2008]

The only xbox game i want is conker live and reloaded. Yay make room for next gen.
O BTW if games are 30% off if I show them a receipt of a game I bought yesterday will they give me back the difference ?

Damn this sucks. I didn't buy anything today since I knew I was going to go and pick up a bunch of stuff.

I'm pretty sure Star Wars: Battlefront II is BC. It's a great game with 4-player co-op in it. Definitely worth 2 dollars.

[imcrazy]

Xbox BC list: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/backwardcompatibilitygameslist.htm

Star Wars Battlefront 2 is one of those games that looks even better when played on the 360.

Hi, guys. You should really see my post on the first page. We have multiable confirmations that the sale is cancelled until further notice. At least the $1.99 bit of it. I might check in tomorrow anyways, but don't hold your breath.

[afterburn999]

i think the 30% sale is still on. But from what i have heard the 1.99 sale has been scrapped.

[Lockescythe]

fixed topic accordingly.

[magiic]

I'll have to check mine tomorrow

[TheBigBoi]

I really hope the one near my house just has MLB Power Pros for Wii. Sucks to hear that the GC/Xbox deal got scrapped.

A new version for the Wii comes out on the 29th, I believe. A few new modes it appears, but not a ton of updates.

I know. But I know last year's version is $20 new, so for a used version it's probably $15 (before the 30% off), and I'm trying to save some money for GH: World Tour when it comes out.

This is what went through my head when I saw the list of 'updated features'. Not that much new, so might as well save some cash. ;)

[mkrowe]

Can anyone confirm that the 30% is on games starting today? There's nothing on the website and the one Blockbuster I called said it is only for movies.

[gmoney1234567890]

just phoned BB for grant park in winnipeg. They said the pull was cancelled for this week, but was more likely a delay. So it could most likely be checked back later to see if itll happen then. Kenaston said they just got the e-mail, so the deal will happen, they just dont know when.

[MatiasB]

I was in BB just an hour ago and the 30% is only for previously viewed movies not games.

[magiic]

Guess Im not going to Blockbuster today then =(

[1cesc]

B2G1 is still on, 30% won't be happening for video games.

[Kiluminati]

I was told that B2G1 ended yesterday

[heimdal]

Thanks for the heads up, you just saved me a trip to BBV

[TheBigBoi]

NOOOO!! Aw man, now I might as well wait for the new Power Pros to come out.

[Lockescythe]

Well I guess I'm gonna head to my local blockbuster pissed off then. I was told it was 30% off games starting today.

[vicious7171]

Yep, absolutely nothing going on at BBV's games section.

[1cesc]

I was told that B2G1 ended yesterday

Worked for me today. Ask them to scan the coupon UPC, it should still be on.

[Lockescythe]

b2g1 for games seems to be still on due to there still being signs for it.

[magiic]

was at a BBV today and can confirm 30% is on DVD's only at the Esquimalt store on Vancouver Island

[Kekumba]

Same here in Kanata (both locations).. saw B2G1 signs still up, though. Mass Effect for $25 used.. was going to grab it, but couldn't find anything else to go with it.

[gamer602]

any news on the clearance?

[magiic]

B2G1 was still on at mine yesterday

I grabbed Jedi Outcast (xbox), Hitman Blood Money (xbox), Viewtiful Joe 2 :ps2: , NBA Homecourt :360: , Ghost Recon :360:, Virtua Tennis World Tour :psp: all for $30. Not too bad I guess. Definately not as good as MvC2 :ps2: lol
