Thanks alot CheapyD!!!! I was never a big fan of the Prince of Persia games on the gamecube but this one looks more in the way of what I like in an adventure game. I checked out the video review on ign.com and that sealed it for me. Much different from the past games and definitely a must buy at $20.00. I added The Searchers Blu ray version to my cart for $7.99 and picked up free shipping. :)

Great! Now I just bought another game I didn't really need and don't really have time to play. I think I spend more money on games since I've been looking at this site than I ever have before. I just get more of them for the money.

The best thing to do to stop paying for the games is look at your backlog, count the number of hours each one is supposed to take, and then realize you probably don't even have enough time to finish all of those.

That helped me out ;)

Yeah, my backlog is huge--but I really wanted this game after release. I'm in for one for $20 bucks, no tax, and free shipping.

One of my favorite games last year and easily worth the $20. I HIGHLY recommend the game to anyone who is a fan of platformers and/ or plain old beautiful graphics. It's one of the best looking games in years!

Another $20 bites the dust. I will agree that this site certainly has not caused me to spend less money on gaming, but I do get more value for the dollar.

I wanted this game when I first saw the screen shots; I love this art style. Hard to say no at $20 for a sealed copy.

06-07-2009, 06:36 PM
I'm not adding this to my backlog even though it is on my list of games to get when the price drops. I have too many other games I want to play first. I think the trick to buying cheap games is only buy when you know you're going to play the game soon. Unless it's $10, then just buy it regardless.

You may want to re-consider, I along with many others consider this GOTY for 2008. It's well worth full price, and for this price.. I'd say it should be impossible to skip on.

I know what it's like with back-logs, I currently have over 13 sealed games, including one I got on launch, which I just opened yesterday (Killzone 2); but this game is 100% fully worth the price, especially the sale price. One of my all-time favorite 360 games, and games; at that.

in my opinion, i do not think it was goty, but it was a very good game, and i agree that if you have not played this game, or have not beaten this game (like you rented it or something) it is well worth 20 bucks. i say pick it up if you can.

Well, Dead Space is my GOTY, but PoP comes in at a close second. Very, very close second. The DLC almost puts it over the edge for #1 for me.

I think it's funny how my idea of a cheap game has dropped recently. It's not $10 but I picked this and Sega Superstars Tennis up anyway. Thanks.

06-07-2009, 10:14 PM
Even though I ringed today, I went ahead and pulled the trigger. Now I've got something to look forward to (probably along with FNR4) when my console gets back.

I'm sure it's a good game, and it's a pretty good price, but like I said, I have plenty to play right now, and by the time I get around to this game, it will probably be cheaper. I can't just go around buying every game that goes on sale. I don't have the time or money for that. Now if this was one of by most wanted games, I would grab it up in a second, but it's not, so I can wait.

I threw in The Proposition on blu for the free shipping- great movie and I've heard it's an excellent blu especially for the bargain price. Thanks much, Cheapy...I think.

After tax, gas, time in traffic and time in store you can pretty much call it even by going through Amazon. And if you strike out at one location you've already spent more.

Same thing here.
It was just marked clearance this morning - but $30 still. I even had a clerk check to make sure.

In fact, I've never seen one 360 game at my Target for a remotely good price for 6 months. They are strictly retail overpriced games, not even interested in moving stock. Even their clearance end-cap is a sparse joke.

Picked it up for $14.98 at my Target this morning, as well. No pricing error though. It rang up what it should have. Had to jump at that price. It would have been my deal of the day had I not found the DVD box sets for seasons 1 & 2 of InuYasha for only $6.97 a piece at Books-A-Million. WHAT A DAY!!!:lol::lol::lol:

I ordered last night, along with The Searchers BD, Flags of our Fathers HD-DVD and Ray HD-DVD. Decided to check Target just in case, and it was $15 (in fact they had about 10-15 of em!) After tax I save $4... I'd like to have the other movies I bought but I can grab the HD-DVD's next time I make a full $25 list, and the searchers I don't care that much about. I guess I'll save the $4 and cancel the Amazon order (and in effect save $16 I was spending just to get FSS and pick up cheap HD movies I don't need right now).

Limited! Was bummed when I saw the huge pile at Target for $15, but this is way better!!!

got limited also. I bet its in the TRU thread already but for those that missed out, on both the clearance and Amazon, TRU has it for 20 bucks also. I dont know if its YMMV but it was at my local TRU for that price.
