$20 for NBA 2K09 for PS2? Rats, wish there was a $10 discount on the 360 or PS3 version.

Too bad you can't post the pic for the Gears RC Tank. I'm really leaning towards canceling the Amazon toy gun and getting that instead. Cheaper too!

Thanks Speedy!

Finally Zelda dropped for the Wii! I didn't get a Wii until last year and figured I'd waited that long to play it having passed on the GC version since many had said the Wii one was superior and I didn't want to pay full price for a game that had been out for awhile.

yeah, it took it long enough. nintendo is pretty freakin greedy to go almost 2 years before putting the game on sale. i don't even remember seeing that game go on sale during the holidays last year.

I actually find most of them when I'm out surfing for info for these very threads. If I spot something funny or amusing, I'll jot down the address and put it into a word document I keep for these things. That document is several pages long at this point. Once I've used a pic, I'll mark it as USED and pull something new.

I think my all time favorite is probably this one (Squirrels with Light Sabers):

While my favorite gif is this one (Picard Gets Racy):

It's part of their "evergreen" strategy they spoke about at E3. Their thought process is that since their hits continue to sell, they just keep producing more copies and forego creating sequels until they burn out. Since no sequel is on the horizon, they just keep their old titles at full retail.

On another note, I'm liking the RC tank bonus!

glen77777

10-04-2008, 08:10 PM

Thanks for listing these, but i want to know somethng that is non gaming. I am wanting to know if there will be any laptops on sale for under 500 on sunday at one of the stores. Theres one on sale at best buy today, (A compaq), but I'd like to know what the laptop is for sunday and next week. I need to get my laptop within the next few days, so it would really help me out if I knew if a better laptop will be on sale tommorrow, or if I should go for the compaq on sale at best buy this week. Thanks!

edit nevermind. I missed the section where you said you didn't know about laptops, sorry about that. I did try to read the whole thread but must have missed it.

10-05-2008, 01:13 PM

CC: King's Bounty $29.99 should definitely be on the front page. That's what I'm buying this week. :) Not that I have time to play it...

Argh, it's out of stock online! I hate CC. Why can't I just back order it at the sale price? Jerks.

Oh, and Speedy, thank you so much as always! What would we do without you?

mac101010

10-05-2008, 01:41 PM

Thanks as always, Speedy!

By the way, does anyone know if Bestbuy charges your credit card immediately on preorders? I'm considering to do so for the LE, but I might change my mind later along the line and I don't want to deal with refunds. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

New to CAG so excuse my ignorance.
If I grab the 360(40 gift card) deal, can I return live to GS for full credit?

DAMN! Best Buy got Pinewood Derby as an EXCLUSIVE? They had to fork over a hefty chunk of money for that one... Fucking Best Buy and their evil, monopolizing ways!

i got a question fellow gamers. should i wait before target opens to get a wii or will it be on shelf for a hour or two

I'm pretty sure this will vary based on where you are. Because I know some places it's impossible to find, while recently I saw a Wii on a shelf as late as a Thursday.

No, Gamestop will treat it like a used game if you don't have a receipt, I believe.

Can someone get me the trade-in price on NBA Live 09? I want the 360, just not that game, and the gift card will work 'wonders' later this fall.

Youd only get 30 at most.. youre better off with ebay youd probably get 45-50 first week for it easy..

I sent the information about the Wii games to a friend who was looking for Wii games.

When she went down to CC to pick up the $35 Brawl, they denied her, stating that they would, "put out the games on Tuesday." That doesn't even make sense in the least bit, especially since it's on sale online already.

Yeah. I'm sure there's some poor slub willing to take it at $50 around in my area. I'm just mad at Dell for fucking us on that 360 deal.
