[QiG]

can you painstakingly post them now anyway?

[Doomed]

How about the highlights, like 5 per console?

[stack9902]

LOL yeah inquiring minds want to know...

[dallow]

Bionic Commando to 19.99.
I don't see other major drops. Hope I'm wrong.

[Japakneez]

Do it now!
















:mrgreen:

[WTFer]

Are the price drops today or starting tomorrow?

[buster90]

This sounds fishy...........

[sang321]

Exactly WHEN is this supposed to happen? @.@

[lokizz]

maybe someone who works at gamestop can post the list.

[slidecage]

In addition to the guitar hero promotion gamestop is having huge price drops on NEW games down to 19.99, some that are currently 59.99. The list is to exstensive to list but should be on gamestops main page in the morning. If it is not I will painstaicingly try to list them all here.

i doubt it will be MAJOR.


Love to see some massive price drops on Ds and psp games... (but then aain would you call a 10 buck drop massive)

if there was a major sale coming i would think it would of got leaked way before now but if it is COOL.


10 titles per system at least would work

no reason to post 100x old sport titles : )


WATCH IT BE CANADA ONLY LOL

[Admiral Ackbar]

It's a trap!

[DietPoopSoda]

It's a trap!

I really hope not! Looks like Bionic Commando is the only thing of note from this list, though.

[arcurifisher]

Starts tomarow july 8

[arcurifisher]

look for the new 19.99 section as soon as you enter store

[arcurifisher]

supose to have specific titles starting tomarow, may just have old fillers today

[katzd2007]

Deadly Creatures for the Wii is about it.

[slidecage]

look for the new 19.99 section as soon as you enter store

im going to be looking for the 19.98 section and fall into all of the games cause i did not see the display LOL (though it really happened once a few years back when they had the gameday sale)

some dude was looking at a piece of paper and fell right into the display ... broke the cardboard box and all of the little games went everywhere

[Slappybob]

So no list anywhere?

[DietPoopSoda]

So no list anywhere?

I think there is (otherwise, there wouldn't be anyone talking about Bionic Commando and Deadly Creatures being $19.99) but it looks like no-one will post it.

[crazyj]

this has piqued my interest

[jkimrey]

If it's a universal drop, a list couldn't be traced to an individual store, right? :cry:

I think there is (otherwise, there wouldn't be anyone talking about Bionic Commando and Deadly Creatures being $19.99) but it looks like no-one will post it.

[Skater898]

Does this go for EB Games as well?

[DietPoopSoda]

If it's a universal drop, a list couldn't be traced to an individual store, right? :cry:

Well, from what I have heard that Best Buy does, they order the items in a unique way per store/person. Not sure if GameStop does the same thing, but I probably would just post the highlights if I had the list, just in case ;).

[SEH]

Well, from what I have heard that Best Buy does, they order the items in a unique way per store/person. Not sure if GameStop does the same thing, but I probably would just post the highlights if I had the list, just in case ;).

Just scramble the way you post the list?

[DietPoopSoda]

Just scramble the way you post the list?

I know, it sounds easy, but for some reason most people don't do it.

BTW, I don't have the list. This is just from personal past experiences.

[thingsfallnapart]

What games were turds besides bionic commando that could warrent a 19.99 price point to sell? Odds are most of us got them cheaper at target already probably.

[jkimrey]

Could we encrypt everything and then hand out decoder rings? ;)

Well, from what I have heard that Best Buy does, they order the items in a unique way per store/person. Not sure if GameStop does the same thing, but I probably would just post the highlights if I had the list, just in case ;).

[fwbweux]

According to word of mouth on CAG, the following have already been mentioned (although this isn't official confirmation, obviously.)

DS:
Chrono Trigger ($20)
Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure ($20)
Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood ($20)

PS3:
Bionic Commando ($20)

360:
Bionic Commando ($20)

Wii:
Deadly Creatures ($20)
House of the Dead: Overkill ($30)
Madworld ($30)

I might be able to confirm a universal price drop of Persona 3: FES to $15. I saw it for this price at both Gamestop and Meijer last saturday.

[mrg]

Agreed. I don't think we will be that impressed when we actually see the list. I know I won't cross the street for Bionic Commando at that price. Still to high in my book. But I must say I am mildly anxious to see the list nonetheless.

[CheapyD]

A lot of these (besides Bionic Commando) seem to be $20/$30 on Amazon (and likely elsewhere) already.

[poker360]

bionic commando seems very tempting

[ajh2298]

Will the used version of "Bionic Commando" also drop to $17.99 to reflect the new $19.99 price point?

[ryheeles]

I may have to jump on Bionic Commando at that price. seems to have gotten decent reviews, so I think I can justify dropping $20 on it. my ridiculous backlog and the assload of good stuff coming out in the next few months may change my mind, though

[ninja dog]

bionic commando reeealllly bombed hard.

[xeno]

Im going to guess that Mirrors Edge and Dead Space will be 20 also , since both of them are 20 at different stores already.

[dskillzhtown]

Wonder if Chronicles of Riddick goes down too.

[twstd4lfe]

my post got moved but i will do what i do on gaf and cheapy can hold me to this, bionic commando is definitely dropping tomorrow or you can ban me :D

[mis0]

Donde esta el listo del game-os.

[doodofdoods]

Mirror's Edge is already $20 on their website. Dead Space is still $30.

[perdition(troy]

meh, hopefully a list gets posted with some decent games.

[keithp]

Donde esta el listo del game-os.

No-wano nos-o.

[twstd4lfe]

Wheelman and Hawx tomorrow as well

[angelfly]

This thread is failure without a list.

[Jesse757x]

can someone help i can't seem to find list in this thread

[redline]

Donde esta el listo del game-os.
LOL your spanglish es muy bueno, senior.

[twstd4lfe]

$20 for Wheelman and Hawx and these are on the new copys of these games only, and to clarify Gamestop is now going to have a $19.99 and under section in the front of each store

[sinned47]

pics or shenanigans

[thingsfallnapart]

So no 17.99 on the used huh for the buy 2 get 1?

[TheGamingGuy]

Beijing Olympics 2008, NBA 2k9, Mirror's Edge, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Incredible Hulk, Prince of Persia, Baja: Edge of Control, Tom Clancy's End War, Brother's In Arms: Hell's Highway, Skate, Oblivion: GOTY, Skate

All those I saw on PS3, but they also appear to be on 360 at same price. I can't confirm these, but simply looking on the 19.99 and under part of their site, all these titles popped up with the common theme of:

Price Drop - Old Price: $29.99 Save $10.00

Or some were 39.99. Either way it appears to affect games that were around $30 or $40, and are multi-platform (at least in the case of non-Wii games). I know Mirror's Edge just turned $20 though, cause I was thinking of getting it at the last B2G1 sale and it was still $24.99 Used.

In a very good note, if you check out the used prices of these games, they have dropped as well. :) Hope that helps!

[jazzman]

WATCH IT BE CANADA ONLY LOL

Exactly what I was thinking! :)

[TheGamingGuy]

Also, for those having trouble, to get the the $19.99 and under stuff, simply click on your choice, and you'll notice on the sidebar there w/ the new options, will be one that says "$19.99 & Under".

[RudyPants]

I'm looking forward to some drops. Bionic Commando at $20 would be worth it to me.

[plutoknight]

crap PoP is going down?!

Dangit I just bought that 2 weeks ago..... -_- ugh.

[Dolemite1]

Might have to pick up Prince of Persia at 20.00. Has anyone seen it for less elsewhere?

[IndyBroncos]

Might have to pick up Prince of Persia at 20.00. Has anyone seen it for less elsewhere?

I picked it up at Target on clearance for 14.98

[DaMonStEr]

Might have to pick up Prince of Persia at 20.00. Has anyone seen it for less elsewhere?

Target

[elessar123]

Might have to pick up Prince of Persia at 20.00. Has anyone seen it for less elsewhere?

Found a copy at Target for ~$15 2 weeks ago, but of course YMMV.

[jkimrey]

$20 for Hawk would be cool for those of us who can't find it on clearance at a Target...

$20 for Wheelman and Hawx and these are on the new copys of these games only, and to clarify Gamestop is now going to have a $19.99 and under section in the front of each store

[zeb06]

For recent 360 price drop on ebgames/gamestop online:

http://www.ebgames.com/Browse/search.aspx?Ns=Price%7c1&N=133+211+73+79

Also, the used version of each seem to be at 17.99 too. No HAWX, Dead Space, or BC on there yet. Will prob pick up Prince of Persia and a couple more when the B2G1 comes along next week or whenever it is.

[edureboucas]

Prince of Persia is up for 20 dollars on the website already:
http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=71599

[imacjenn]

Yeah, I noticed a couple of the games mentioned here are also dropped on the eastore.com site. Mirror's Edge and Henry Hatsworth are both $19.95 now. Incidentally, so is Trivial Pursuit. I didn't recognize any other drops offhand, but there probably are some...

[theking20]

someone on neogaf said that Bionic Commando will be $20 when this sell starts.
that was quick lol :( poor BC
Might pick it up at that price

Edit- I guess people know, why is there no list in the op post?

[lokizz]

dunno if anyone mentioned i but prince of persia is 20.crap somebody did nm lol. sonic unleashed and shaun white snow boarding are 20.

[knightsdwn]

I'll be looking forward to the complete list tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up OP and the others.

[rifle21]

Mirror's Edge looks to be 14.99 from GameFly, in case 20 bucks is too rich for your blood.

[Roufuss]

My gf and I just bought BC new for $60 yesterday.. luckily we still haven't opened it (we have a mound of credit stacked up and nothing else to spend it on).

Will Gamestop just refund the difference back onto the Edge card since it's been two days, or will we have to return / rebuy?

Hoping this sale and the list of games is real.. would love to burn this last $110 in credit.

[wwe101]

hope for mgs4 and uncharted

[PR Mega X]

Wolverine was dropping like a fucking rock for a while, I'd love to see it hit the magic $20 price point here.

[AceSXE]

so these are permanent price drops or just for a salE?

[ajh2298]

I bet "Wanted:Weapons of Fate" drops to $19.99.

[jazzman]

Wolverine was dropping like a fucking rock for a while, I'd love to see it hit the magic $20 price point here.

I would bite at $20, but seems highly unlikely since it just came out 2 months ago and has been more popular than Bionic Commando.

[refusedchaos]

Donde esta el listo del game-os.

:rofl:

*waiting for list*

[freshzen]

I recommend Bionic Commando for $20, the single player is actually pretty fun.

[thingsfallnapart]

lets see so far i see
sonic unleashed
shaun white snowboarding
overlord
Hulk
Iron Man
nba 2k9
Oblivion game of the year (all ps3)

[CaoPi]

heard BlazBlue will be $20? If so I'm in for 10!

[aznpridebball]

thats funny ^

[shiftymcneely]

heard BlazBlue will be $20? If so I'm in for 10!

10? you must be from slickdeals...

[Kcdragon8116]

If Oblivion GOTY is on there, I'm gonna be mad. I just recieved my copy from amazon. I bought it for $27.

[Kush]

If Bionic Commando actually sells for $20 tomorrow then I'll definitely pick it up, but I'm still a bit skeptical. I do plan on grabbing Sonic Unleashed though...maybe The Wheelman as well if that's on sale.

[shrike4242]

My gf and I just bought BC new for $60 yesterday.. luckily we still haven't opened it (we have a mound of credit stacked up and nothing else to spend it on).

Hoping this sale and the list of games is real.. would love to burn this last $110 in credit.They'll probably do a return and rebuy on it, since they really don't have any other way to do it.

[J7.]

This could be good with the upcoming b2g1, $17.99 FTW.

[pureheat101]

I just saw that oblivion (PS3) went down to $19.99 new and $17.99 used
will these be permanent prices anyone know?

[DrUnkAgAIn]

I bought Sonic Unleashed for $12 on Target clearance a few months ago. Not even worth it at that price.

Awful, awful game.

[NovaKane]

$20 for Bionic Commando...hmmm...might have to bite on this since I have store credit XD

[TouchMyWiimote]

I bought Sonic Unleashed for $12 on Target clearance a few months ago. Not even worth it at that price.

Awful, awful game.
oh come on. I paid $45 for it when it first came out and I enjoyed it. I mean yeah it has it's problems, but not worth $12 bucks? come on.

[schuerm26]

Not sure if this relates to anything but the Gamestop I was at today was a complete mess. I know the manager and they told me that they just got a HUGE amount of price changes today. I had never seen this store like this so who knows.

[lokizz]

so how many nonwherehog parts are in sonic unleashed? i remember enjoying the demo but that was regular sonic only no wherehog.

[wwe101]

please have mgs4 on that list............

[perdition(troy]

please just have a list.

[Justin42]

Could this be part of the "Gamedays 2" sale that someone posted about (and the thread got locked) last week? I think it was supposed to start next Monday but maybe they moved it up.

[tenzor]

My friend who works at a local Game Stop showed me an e-mail from corporate that tells the stores to pull USED copies of Bionic Commando, Tom Clancy's HAWX, and The Wheelman because the NEW copies are going to be dropping to $19.99 while the USED copies will still be marked at their normal prices. So to avoid confusion they are pulling all the USED copies to just sell the cheaper NEW copies during the sale period.

I guess that confirms

Bionic Commando 360/PS3 - $19.99
The Wheelman 360/PS3 - $19.99
Tom Clancy's HAWX 360/PS3 - $19.99

hopefully there is more because 3 games seems like a small sale. I may get Bionic Commando however since I waited during launch from getting it.

[howlinmad]

Please Sacred 2. :)

[drktrpr1]

I'll keep an eye on this thread, but I'm not gonna run out like a little girl to Gamestop until I see the list.

[officerrickyross222]

has anyone played bc ?? is it worth 20 ?

[RelentlessRolento]

so apparently MGS4 Limited Edition is $9.99 tomorrow...

[daminion]

Wheelman is surprisingly fun. I picked it up at Target with the thought of flipping it to Amazon. Popped it in just to try it and ended up playing it for several days. Eventually bought a second copy at Target to keep.

[Japakneez]

i bet amaz*n.com is watching this thread


i should have traded in NBA2k9 when i had the chance. Its difficult to enjoy a game with a celtic on the cover :bomb:

[Cmosfm]

so apparently MGS4 Limited Edition is $9.99 tomorrow...

I know where one is too. :)

[cwalker3]

Kind of a list - recent drops on their website. Some new titles I think.

360 (http://www.gamestop.com/Browse/search.aspx?Ns=Price%7C1&N=133+211+79+73&PerPage=50)

PS3 (http://www.gamestop.com/Browse/search.aspx?N=141+211+79+73&PerPage=50)

Wii (http://www.gamestop.com/Browse/search.aspx?Ns=Price%7C1&N=138+211+73+79)

Force Unleashed and RE:UC stands out to me.

[Pikagreg]

Please Sacred 2. :)
I wish ._. lol Doubt it tho :(

[Japakneez]

so apparently MGS4 Limited Edition is $9.99 tomorrow...


...the limited edition strategy guide right? lol \\:D/

[wwe101]

[kart007k]

http://www.nextgenplayer.com/2009/07/eb-games-mgs4-limited-edition-989.html

Aww, I just purchased the regular edition of MGS4. Anyway, I might still pick up another 360 or PS3 title if there are some good deals going on.

[TheMaidenOfSorrow]

[punkmaggit]

I might have to pick back up Sonic Unleashed!

[howlinmad]

Wheelman is very tempting.

How does Sonic Unleashed compare to the first DC one?

[drktrpr1]

this is a temporary sale. Used game prices will not drop.





surpise!!!

[Ichigo1993]

I'm hoping for Amazon to price match as I still have some leftover credit there.

I'd love to pick up Bionic Commando for that price.

[wwe101]

i want that $10 mgs:cry:

[dancrane212]

mgs4 LE looks like it might be canada only cause i saw a story on it also i saw endwar for $10 & star wars force unleashed for $20 all ps3

http://www.nextgenplayer.com/2009/07/eb-games-mgs4-limited-edition-989.html

Yeah, if the rumors are true (they were right about TR:U being $10 today) it will be $10 in Canada not sure about the U.S though.

Also thanks for the heads up OP I've been looking for BC for a lower price for awhile. Hopefully I can get a copy through Goomba (plug!:D)

[rydude87]

I called and they said that bioshock nor nba2k9 was not 19.99. It rang up at 29.99... So iff i call tomorrow, it will be 19.99?

[RelentlessRolento]

yeah, looks like MGS4 is canada only.

[videodrone]

Wheelman is surprisingly fun. I picked it up at Target with the thought of flipping it to Amazon. Popped it in just to try it and ended up playing it for several days. Eventually bought a second copy at Target to keep.

Agreed. I found it quite fun. Think linear GTA where the driving mission, play alot like Burnout takedown mode.

[momouchi]

Diva Girls: Divas on Ice for the Wii is 19.99? Hot damn I know what I'm getting!

(http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=73901)

[drktrpr1]

Wow this thread got legit in a hurry

[bison11]

I may have to pick up Mirror's Edge for 17.99 used.

[twstd4lfe]

Haters be damned haha I post to contribute to this great community and to give back since cag has saved my ass lots of $$$$

[KrayzieKMF]

I hope they're not opening all the games....

[BWOzar]

Anyone have any thoughts on the difficulty of Bionic Commando's achievements...?

[momouchi]

Depends on the store, but the odds are pretty high that they will gut a majority of the games.

[banzaiwolfe]

I'll definitely pick up Bionic Commando, might as well add more to my large backlog of games :p

[crunchewy]

House of the Dead: 2 & 3 Returns is actually showing as "Temporary price reduction" on at least ebgames.com, and is $19.99 new, higher used, so that would seem to be one of the titles. I'm probably going to pick that up to go along with my recent purchase of Overkill.

As far as gutting, if you buy online it probably won't be gutted. House of the Dead 2 & 3 Returns is available online at that price.

[Monsta Mack]

Wow didn't capcom expect huge sales from Bionic Commando? epic bomb.

[maqamar]

so is this sale in store, online or both?

[robbyH]

How about PSP?

[themidnighter23]

dammit, why couldn't they do this in august when SDCC is over and I will have money again

[FadeToOne]

I'm down for BC. I'm glad I swapped it for Prototype in the B2G1 Target deal last month.

[gshell]

If Bionic Commando actually sells for $20 tomorrow then I'll definitely pick it up, but I'm still a bit skeptical. I do plan on grabbing Sonic Unleashed though...maybe The Wheelman as well if that's on sale.

agreed......i'll check my gstop tomorrow for bionic commando....

[baldbuddha]

is the guitar hero the full band or just the guitar kit

[TnAdct1]

dammit, why couldn't they do this in august when SDCC is over and I will have money again
You're not alone here, as I'm trying to save money for Otakon when I read this announcement.

[sang321]

^
From what I've heard, it's the whole set.
And sounds good except I don't know what to get... -_-
Nothing really TOO special that sounds good. Still deciding from GoW or Mirror's Edge or something else... $50 GS gift card to use. Hmm...

[segaplayer]

well i was one of the few who picked up bionic commando on launch day. Of course this game was a lesson to me to always wait for a deal on new games because one always pops up eventually.

anyway I still don't regret buying the game overall. it was difficult and had the old-school feel plus a ton of fun. 20 dollars is an absolute steal. once you play it out and find out how good it is and the hint to a sequel...you'll realize it will never happen due to sales :P

[jonathanp]

Interesting... I'm in for Bionic Commando. Hopefully there will more games included in this temporary price drop that I'm interested in.

[sergioalb64]

Any DS deals? I've heard of Chrono Trigger, Henry Hatsworth, and Sonic Chronicles, but something else would be nice.

RE: UC for Wii for $20 sounds good; I might bite.

[destro4eva]

Wow,

Deadly Creatures, Umbrella Chronicles, Bioshock, and Elder Scrolls GOTY. Those 4 are slam dunks, especially if you can get them on the Buy 2, Get 1 Free Deal. Around $35 for 3 games ain't too shabby.

[polo14player]

is buy 2 get one free - for new games??? if so then bionic commando + wheelman = free - deadly creatures!!!!

[Okatha]

Bionic Commando? Hell yeah!

[rkrocks123]

The best part of this deal is the fact that you can trade Hawx, Wheelman, and Bionic Commando back in for as much as you paid for them with the "Trade 3 for FNR4" deal.

Please tell me you are being facetious.

[funkflexmctough]

MLB 2K9 is 18.99/19.99

...edit... just 18.99 used...$40 new

[tagout]

Well, that's fucked up. I bought MGS4 LE for $91.xx on launch day (which is still sealed) and now this...

fuck YOU GAMESTOP for ruining my chance on selling it on Ebay.

[momouchi]

is buy 2 get one free - for new games??? if so then bionic commando + wheelman = free - deadly creatures!!!!

No, only a B2G1 on used games is coming out.

[fizzywix]

Will grab Oblivion GOTY.

[Justin42]

I REALLY hope Amazon price matches these fast, I'm tempted to get Bionic Commando but would prefer to deal with my Prime membership instead of Gamestop's "We'll ship it when we feel like it" SAVER codes. ;)

You could god forbid go in the store ;)

[hosslogan]

I highly recommend Hawx and Bionic Commando. I thought they were both worthy additions to my collection. Nothing groundbreaking, but still fun.

[rerun]

Well, that's fucked up. I bought MGS4 LE for $91.xx on launch day (which is still sealed) and now this...

Are you joking?

[rerun]

Think I'll be in for HAWX, BC, and Lego Batman.

[Justin42]

You could god forbid go in the store ;)

That would require me to go fairly significantly out of my way for where I will be tomorrow. Much easier to have things come to me. ;)

That said, does Best Buy PM Gamestop online prices? (I know it'll be in-store but I assume all I will have is a web printout) I pass like 20 of them to and from work. ;)

[fatez]

in for bionic commando for sure at the 20 dollar price. :)

[gundamb0i]

I pick up alot game from bbv and traded some in. So Hawx and Bionic Commando free for me.

[Doomed]

You do realize that every single Metal Gear Solid game has had a superior rerelease a few years later?

[SoulEdgeVII]

Looks like Oblivion: GOTY used for PS3 dropped to $17.99. May wait to see if a PS3 coupon appears this week.

[foxdvd]

This looks like a good deal. My beef bayonet is golden brown!!

[au7oma7ic]

I might pick up wheelman, it seemed like an okay, fun in spurts kind of title.

Bionic Commando....I want too, but I just don't know.

[ChernobylCow]

All this reading and I think I am just going to pass. Good luck everyone.

[KongaKing]

I think wheelman might be worth 20. What's the odds amazon will match these prices?

[maximumzero]

Holy shit The Munchables is $20 already? didn't that drop like two weeks ago?

Yes I realize it was $30 so it's not a huge drop but yeesh...I came very close to grabbing it from Best Buy when it released.

[maximumzero]

Also, it's a bit underhanded but I just bought Bionic Commando from Best Buy for $45 (via coupons & reward zone certificates) so I think I'm gonna grab BC from Gamestop and then returned that sealed copy to Best Buy with my receipt.

[KiySeph]

I've been waiting for a $20 price point for Bionic Commando, Wheelman, and HAWX. Looks like I've got to make a stop by at Gamestop tomorrow (god, I hope I don't get any gutted copies).

[xdl]

I was excited for this, but it looks like a complete bust.

[Bhhawks78]

Well, that's fucked up. I bought MGS4 LE for $91.xx on launch day (which is still sealed) and now this...

fuck YOU GAMESTOP for ruining my chance on selling it on Ebay.


Might have been the funniest post this forum has ever seen.

[perdition(troy]

I hate to say it, but this sale is not what I was hoping for.

[kk012]

how temporary are these price drops for the new games?

also, will the prices drops for the used games last until the B2G1 sale? any ideas?

[D3adcell]

I will be getting bionic commando and hawx tomorrow then. I open and those were not on the price changes and didn't have any e-mails about those games today.

The 19.99 and under section you guys shouldn't even bother with corporate has a set number of games we were supposed to put in there and they were all crap like cabela's on wii. We changed ours up though to have other stuff, but most stores probably have the crap corporate says to put in that section.

[Indiana Jones]

Wheelman, HAWX and Bionic Commando all seem to have middling reviews. Anyone have first-hand experience with these games?

[slidecage]

sucks no ds or psp titles.. o well at least i save cash.. I need to run over to best buy tomorrow and pick up a new dvd player..

[Nameless600]

Was Elder Scrolls (for ps3) already $20 dollars, or was is that a sale, cause if thats a sale thats a nice price

[United_Korea]

You do realize that every single Metal Gear Solid game has had a superior rerelease a few years later?

why hello there, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops.

[iliketag]

maybe someone who works at gamestop can post the list.

So far all that Game Stop employees who are not DM's or RM's know is the games that are already listed. We did 310 price changes on new product in my store today on other games, but nothing too fantastic. If you have kids, there's a few that would be cool to pick up.

There's supposed to be a bunch of other large sales throughout June, but none of the full details have been given to us.

Also, the USED copies of these ARE NOT being marked down!

[maximumzero]

I have this sinking feeling in my stomach that Bionic Commando is gonna be long gone by the time I get there.

[Scorch]

I have this sinking feeling in my stomach that Bionic Commando is gonna be long gone by the time I get there.

lol no one's bought it then, I doubt many copies will move now.

This was posted about a week or two ago as a new gamedays sale, but the post was locked for no reason..

I won't be picking any of the three up. Bionic Commando was garbage through and through, HAWX was fun until I realized I had Ace Combat, and Wheelman is a rental. I'd buy X-Men Origins if it was on sale, even though I've already beat it.

[Nameless600]

I have this sinking feeling in my stomach that Bionic Commando is gonna be long gone by the time I get there.

Do you live in a large city? If you don't I wouldn't expect it, I live in a city of 15k, I'm assuming 3-5 use deal sites like these, and only 1 of those are going to actually want Bionic Commando...

[pjb16]

I have 3 gamestops in like a 8 mile radius, so I know I'll be good. And I too doubt more than like 5 people near me frequent this site at all, let alone as much or more than me.

[iliketag]

Ok, here's the deal... 80% of stores are doing inventory either this week or next week, which means we won't exactly be restocked because we never get much shipment the week before inventory.
We are also doing television advertising so people will know about it....

[CaoPi]

is this sale suppose to be similiar to the GAME DAY sales where everything is gutted?

[chunga]

Knowing Gamestop, most of them probably will be gutted

[iliketag]

is this sale suppose to be similiar to the GAME DAY sales where everything is gutted?

NO. Because there are no bins involved. It wasn't OUR choice to gut everything. I tried to keep it from happening at our store but my DM wrote me up. Working for a corporate company causes that to happen. The game was going to be opened eventually anyway.

[Nameless600]

iliketag, maybe you could answer my question, is the price drop on Elder Scrolls part of the sale, or is that a perm. price drop?

[ZxT Vendetta]

I will be all over Bionic Commando and Wheelman most likely. I need those in my 360 collection :)

[dkl415]

Some of the games from this price drop seem to be eligible for the FNR4 trade-in deal. Bionic Commando and Wheelman, for example, are eligible for the 3 game trade in deal that's valid through 7/12. It's only 4 days in between, but I have 2 games to trade, and plan to buy both of these, play the hell out of them, and trade whichever one I like less.

[lwelyk]

iliketag, maybe you could answer my question, is the price drop on Elder Scrolls part of the sale, or is that a perm. price drop?
Since the used price has dropped as well unlike PoP's, I'd assume it's permanent.

[iliketag]

I think it's a temporary price drop that isn't part of the promotion. Sometimes that happens. My guess is it'll be like madworld where it was 29.99/26.99 for two weeks then back up to normal price.

[Doomed]

why hello there, Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops.
:roll: That wasn't what I meant, but I didn't think anyone would say something like that. PO is a spinoff.

MGS

MGS3

MGS4

With Kojima's track record and remarks about MGS4, it will happen.

The worst part is, I will buy Subsandwich because I love the game so much that the small amount of added content will make me play through it again.

[Watchman]

The worst part is, I will buy Subsandwich because I love the game so much and the slight amount of added content will make me play it again.

I'll buy it because it comes on delicious chibata bread and provolone.

Back on topic, I'd highly recommend picking up Stuntman: Ignition for fans of the original. For $12.99 it's money well-spent. Hell, even at $20 it was.

I might pick up Lego Batman, Prince of Persia and SW: Force Unleashed. Probably the latter two--I have yet to finish my Lego Indy.

[lwelyk]

On topic, I'm torn. I've never played PoP so I'll probably get that, but I can't decide whether or not to get Oblivion now or wait for the B2G1F. It SEEMS to be a permanent drop, but I could be wrong....

[iliketag]

As far as I know, B2G1 isn't 100% right now... at least in my region....

[Pootie Thang]

I just got Oblivion 2 weeks ago too. That sucks ugh... anyways $17.99 before EDGE is a STEAL.

[iliketag]

Hey, me too! But even so, paying the 26.99 with discounts wasn't too shabby

[Waterhouse]

dammit I just paid $25 for deadly creatures...thought I was getting a deal and all... GS you've tricked me again!
cool game though

[saintpale]

Hrm, these prices still dont show up on the web?

[$hady]

Gonna get Oblivion GOTY for $20 and throw it on my shelf. I've wanted to play it forever but never got around to it. I've got a wad of GS credit and it'll find itself played one of these days. :D

Will have to check my phone later and see what new things are added to the list.

[mis0]

Guess I gotta stop by Gamestop tomorrow to pick up some stuff. I needed to study for my midterm.. but if the deals are as sweet as everyone is claiming they'll be, I guess it's worth it.

[Roufuss]

Hrm, these prices still dont show up on the web?

Yea, that's a little weird.

[wildpantha05]

Yea, that's a little weird.

Ok, so I'm not going completely insane when I didn't see them on the web *whew*

[Roufuss]

The only thing I can think of is that, if this sale is real and they don't show up on the web, it'll be similar to their "used deal of the week" games where those are in store only as well and don't show up on the web.

We will know in about 3 hours anyways.. I guarantee some east coast CAG will call their Gamestop right at 10 am when they open to get a price check to let everyone else know (because I know I sure as hell plan to).

[DesertLeo]

so sad, no $20 h.a.w.x. online yet.

[Kelegacy]

Im going to guess that Mirrors Edge and Dead Space will be 20 also , since both of them are 20 at different stores already.

What store has Dead Space for $20? Best Buy and most other stores like Amazon still have it for nearly $40. Target is $30 though.

Also, I want Bionic Commando and Wheelman at this price. Can I afford it? Not really with a new mortgage but I'm gonna get them anyway. Can't beat those prices.

[joker______]

it looks like there are gonna be 200 + prices drops

My gamestop opens at 8:30AM, EST.


damn thats early in NJ my GS opens at 10:00

[Dysheekie]

One around me opens at 9:30, and the other 2 at 10am.

[Rob26Smith]

Is the 10% off coupon that was floating around a while back for signing up for their newsletter still available? I know it was the only coupon that could be used for new games.

[Kenrik]

I'm in for a $20 copy of Dead Space and Prince of Persia.

[s2k]

Is the 10% off coupon that was floating around a while back for signing up for their newsletter still available? I know it was the only coupon that could be used for new games.


It died a while ago.RIP 10% coupon. The prices of this stuff might only be on the new games or is it used and new?

[no_exit]

Also, it's a bit underhanded but I just bought Bionic Commando from Best Buy for $45 (via coupons & reward zone certificates) so I think I'm gonna grab BC from Gamestop and then returned that sealed copy to Best Buy with my receipt.
Why not just price match? You're gonna be going to Customer Service to return the item anyway, you will get 110% of the difference, plus you will not get a gutted copy.

[Rob26Smith]

It died a while ago.RIP 10% coupon. The prices of this stuff might only be on the new games or is it used and new?

if it's a temporary drop it will only affect new games. if it's a permanent drop the used games should be 17.99. that would be great for the upcoming b2g1

[InvaderZim]

Deadly Creatures looks like it might be fun. Munchables is great... very much worth 19.99.

Nothing I don't already have (or want) for the 360 or PS3.

[BMN90]

I'm definitely picking up BC is it's on sale for $20. It's currently sitting in my Amazon cart waiting for my gift cards to come in the mail, but I will gladly save myself $32.

[hobbie8046]

if it's a temporary drop it will only affect new games. if it's a permanent drop the used games should be 17.99. that would be great for the upcoming b2g1

OP says it's a temp sale on new prices only.

[botticus]

Valkyrie Profile DS is on sale for $20 as well, might have to go spend some credit on that.

http://www.ebgames.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=73020

[jro787]

any news on if this is offical or not

[salty tbone]

OP says it's a temp sale on new prices only.

Yes, on the titles in the OP.

But for the other $20 titles, the used prices are inline with the new drops (17.99). It's not like the used price is higher than the new price, which happens in most temporary sales.

[slidecage]

what i can tell on DS psp
ds
Dreamer: Teacher
Diva Girls: Divas on Ice
Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume
Rune Factory 2: Fantasy Harvest Moon
Fashion Week Junior Designer
Sonic Chronicles: Dark Brotherhood
Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure
Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends
Broken Sword

PSP
Dragonball Evolution

noting at all on the ps2

Just a major flop for me

[Kenrik]

PSP = Crap... there is such a lack of good new games I see it as a dead format.

I just use my iPhone.

[FurryCurry]

So far I'll be getting Hawx.

[V4oLDbOY]

Star Wars:STFU is $20 new and $27 used. Is that how you can tell its part of the sale, I have no idea.

[scargums]

Is is just me? I don't see Bionic Commando on the site for sale anywhere. A bunch of the games listed in the OP are also now discounted on gamestop's site not not BC.

[Kelegacy]

It's there, just not discounted.

[pastorscott19]

Is this B&M only? I don't see any of these prices online.

[FelixC]

Getting HAWX for the PS3 and maybe Prince of Persia. I'll have to see what other games have price drops in the store since it looks like they didn't list all of them online.

[deletion]

getting resident evil umbrella chronicles, didn't see bionic commando on the list. i'll have to check gamestop later. if it is, i'm getting a copy.

[Chocolatejas]

Confirmed in store yet?

[rant]

Standing outside the store now. Will update in a few minutes. :)

[obijuan71]

Standing outside the store now. Will update in a few minutes. :)

You are a committed CAG !!!!!

Please let us know.

[pjb16]

Confirmed in store yet?
My closest stores don't open until 9:30/10 CST, so I have to wait until then at least. I was hoping east coast could confirm before I headed out, lol.

[Saix_XIII]

Is this officially starting today? Like if I go out of my house is BC going to be $20 or is it a maybe? The GS website still has it listed for $60.

[token2k6]

Wow! there is soooo much stuff for $20 on the price drop section of the website under systems. C&C Red Alert 3 is good at that price if you didn't get it at the BBY $10 sale (which I didn't and was the only one I really wanted!)

Either, way, I'll be heading to one here in Houston during lunch. I'll have to pull out the plastic though to get anything...oh well!

[FadeToOne]

Star Wars:STFU is $20 new and $27 used. Is that how you can tell its part of the sale, I have no idea.

Star Wars: Shut the Fuck Up?

[Kenrik]

Starwars: STFU was an underrated game IMO.

Not perfect but worth $20 if you like button mashers.

8/10

[drevel]

I am going to GS in about 10 minutes & will let you know what I find. Newport Mall - location.

[hobbie8046]

Star Wars: Shut the Fuck Up?

Haha, I was wondering if anyone else would notice that.

Seems Madden 09 Collector's Edition (PS3/360) is $29.99 new if anyone cares to collect those kinds of things. Can be found for a bit cheaper used if you look around online, though.

[mrsachmo]

Prince of Persia and Endwar for 360 are now winging their way to me! thanks, CAG!

[hobbie8046]

Star Wars:STFU is $20 new and $27 used. Is that how you can tell its part of the sale, I have no idea.

Most likely, yes.

I noticed a bit ago that many of the titles now have "Temporary price reduction" in green underneath the "Usually ships within 24 hours."

[rant]

Just picked up hawx an bc. The manager is printing the list of titles now.

[TOAORichy]

Star Wars: STFU sounds like an awesome wrestling game set in the Star Wars universe. "Darth Vader, I want you three weeks from now on Mustafar to settle this once and for all in a hell (no need for a cell) match!"

But getting back to thread topic, I really hope this is confirmed. I've just been mooching off of my friends' gh and rb games until now. I would love this $100 price cut on ghwt.

[Negronometry]

Just picked up hawx an bc. The manager is printing the list of titles now.Guess I'll stop by my GameStop before I head to work this morning and pick up Wheelman and Bionic Commando.

[hobbie8046]

Just picked up hawx an bc. The manager is printing the list of titles now.

Awesome.:applause:

[Kelegacy]

So I'm guessing this is in store only? Thing should be updated by now, correct? At least, if the stores are offering the same prices.

Gotta run there after work I guess.

[Snake2715]

So far I'll be getting Hawx.
Been wanting that for a while, I am with you there!

[Ichigo1993]

Just picked up hawx an bc. The manager is printing the list of titles now.

Sweetness! It would be nice to have an official list up.
