Here's the entertainment software listings from the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Los Angeles/Orange County (LA), San Jose/Silicon Valley (SJ), and Washington state (WA) Fry's Ad(s). These prices are valid only for the dates listed in the subject line.

The items listed below are as they appear in the Fry's Ads. If an item is listed as "SJ only", for example, it could still be on sale at other locations (i.e. - San Diego, Sacramento, Austin, Houston, NV, AZ, OR, IL, GA), but it only appeared in the SJ ad. We have noticed that the Dallas Morning News and SJ Mercury News often run very similar ads. Also, the Chicago ads are often similar to the Seattle ads. However, since these ads are not available online, I cannot confirm them.

If anyone knows of a website to view any further ads, please let me know.

Unless otherwise indicated, items below are listed in all four (DFW, LA, SJ, and WA) ads.

RC Tycoon 3 only 29 bucks...all over that! and 40 bucks for ace combat...have to check sac and see. If its that cheap I may as well buy it there instead of at TRU.

$49 for GTA. Lame.

Ah well, $40 for Ace Combat 5 isn't bad.

If Fry's was smart they would've lowered GTA:SA to $40 and a ton of people would go to their store.

Fry's online counterpart Outpost.com offered GTA:SA for 34.99 with free shipping back in the beginning of September. My copy is being delivered tomorrow.

I had a funny feeling that Fry's wouldn't discount GTA:SA in the B&M stores this week. GTA is one of those games like Halo, Mario and Zelda that take a long time to come down in retail price, because they sell so well regardless.

Probally will get Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 since I felt that the demo was pretty good, although not great.

GTA:SA might be on sale this weekend. You never know, Fry's is pretty good with their offers.

Hoping for GTA:SA, but I have a feeling that we will get Bard's Tale.
I'm thinking the GTA:SA will be a Friday after Thanksgiving savings item.
I hope I am wrong!

you will be wrong...tomorow that will be 34.99 perfect for the halloween sale.....in business its a good way to give the extra push if your company is not hitting those numbers. i heard guitar center (non gaming) will also be having a big sale this weekend.we'll see.
