XIII Looks good~

[Dysheekie]

Awesome, thanks! I've been waiting for a deal on the Xbox version of XIII. I'm definitely picking it up at 10 bucks

[The Successful Dropout]

just remember that these deals don't start until may 9th....this coming sunday

[breakin2]

I'm getting the Rise of Nations expansion, XIII, and possibly Ghost Recon.

[maxflight]

yeah, XIII XBOX is finally affordable! too bad the GC one isn't on sale :(

[Birbo]

Damn! Just picked up XIII last week at BB for $15 with the GGC. If I bring my receipt and the CC ad to BB, I'll get 110% of the difference, correct?

[b3b0p]

$35 for Jetson's! Grr! Why so much? That was like one of my favorite cartoons ever!

[ksuwild25]

Is XIII shown in the ad. That way I can pick up XIII at BB this weekend and get it PM by showing them the ad without worrying about having to find a copy at CC (which is also farther so it would save me some gas).

[jeffreyjrose]

CC is rolling out the red carpet this Sunday, between XIII, the gift cards w/purchase, and the video game clearance, how can we go wrong?

[Admiral Ackbar]

That 20-30% clearance might be hot. Depends on the store I guess.

[jeffreyjrose]

That 20-30% clearance might be hot. Depends on the store I guess.
Definitely, we might all have to keep each other up to date on what we find.

[MadFlava]

Nice, definitely going to try XIII for that price. $9.99 is a bargain. It will probably sell like Beyond Good and Evil when CC put it at $9.99.

[GameDude]

I should pick up 13 this week, so they'll give me 10% the difference. w00t w00t! save me a extra $1! cha ching!

[JohnnyDrama]

XIII may be worth picking up now, thanks for the info

[jt2k3]

Can we do that? Pick it up this week and then price adjust taht sucka next week sometime? I had XIII in my hands at Circuit City yesterday...

[TheGreatWang]

That 20-30% clearance might be hot. Depends on the store I guess

If it's the same next week, I got Zone of the Enders 2 for 10.47 yesterday.

[basketkase543]

The Godfather trilogy for only 49.99??? I've never seen it that low. I gotta get it.

[C_A]

XIII for XBOX is so bought.

[MrBadExample]

I got XIII last week and I would say it's definitely worth the $9.99.

[starman9000]

If it says clearance in the ad I dont think Best Buy has to pm it right?


BTW, Anyone want to pick me up a copy? Please..


Also, they are selling the final episode of friends before its on tv? Not that I care mind you, its for my uh, wife...

[DisturbedZen]

Well shiet.. wat to get Ninja Gaiden or XIII and Crimson Skies..

Crimson Skies is only 20$ after ggc if ur cc allows u to do it..

[seebelow]

Well, I've already got about 12 games in my never-been-played-yet stack anyway. Might as well make it XIII... :-)

[MadFlava]

Well, I've already got about 12 games in my never-been-played-yet stack anyway. Might as well make it XIII... :-)

Man, you have be beat I think I only have 7 games unopened at the moment right now.

[guessed]

The Godfather trilogy for only 49.99??? I've never seen it that low. I gotta get it.

Depending on how low your tax rate is, you might be better off getting it for $51 shipped (no tax) at DDD (http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=PRD156474).

[jkam]

XIII ten bucks? Sweet! Glad I didn't get it for 15 with the GGC.

[Wshakspear]

$35 for Jetson's! Grr! Why so much? That was like one of my favorite cartoons ever!

thats actually a pretty good deal. go look at amazon and i think you'll find the msrp at 65 and thier sale price being 45.

[Strider Turbulence]

Circuit City has another kick ass sale and I only have $20 to spend...again.

*sighs*

That Van Helsing deal looks sweet, I think I'll con my brother into buying that game.

[punqsux]

then have him buy XIII with the gift card =oD

[XboxMaster]

Could someone explain the Price Match thingy at Best Buy?

[Zenithian Legend]

Gotta check out that 20-30% off, CC has such chaotic sales...

[Blamo]

XIII for $10? Sold!

[suprsaiyanMAX]

I've asked about the 20%-30% off numerous times and everytime I just just get a blank stare from an employee that looks like a deer in headlights...Apparently they don't keep these people at this one too informed or something.

[Masterkyo]

Darn! I pickup XIII (PS2) 2 week ago... hopefully, i still have the receipt :)

[shadd01]

does anyone know if these prices work online? i dont have a cc near me, and i would really like to get XIII.
--Shadd

[suprsaiyanMAX]

Quick questoin someone may know the answer too...
Do these gift cards come instantly or are they a mail in thing? Also, can you use them toward the game...Ex. Van Helsing for $35, etc.?

[TheRock88]

XIII and Sphinx sounds like a good deal. I'll probably stop by CC this week and buy them both and get the 110% difference next week just to make sure that they dont sell out next week.

[alongx]

I got XIII last week and I would say it's definitely worth the $9.99.

I'm glad to hear it. Looks like I'm getting up to do some shopping Sunday morning...
Here goes another game on my "to be played" queue.

[Blamo]

They're for your next purchase, so you can't use it on the same game you buy it for :(

[waxHead]

XIII and Sphinx sounds like a good deal. I'll probably stop by CC this week and buy them both and get the 110% difference next week just to make sure that they dont sell out next week.

you get a 110% of the difference from CC if you take in a receipt after an item price-drops?

ie, if XIII is $20 this week and you went back on Sunday w/ the receipt, you'd pay $9 instead of $10, just b/c you bought it this week?

or am I misunderstanding something...?

[KrazyKefka]

Nothing particularly catches my eye, though the XIII deal is rather tempting. I still need to go out to CC this week so I can hopefully pick up F-Zero for $15.

Thanks for the post trustcompany1013.

[longislandlady]

I already got Sphinx for $9.99 last week at Best Buy, but I'm defintely going to see if I my CC will have XIII for $9.99! That would be sweet! :D

[waxHead]

answered my own question using CC's website:


Circuit City's Price Match Plus Guarantees

Online Price Match Plus Guarantee

Nothing's worse than paying too much. That's why we do everything in our power to make sure you don't pay a penny more than you should for anything you buy at Circuit City. If you've seen a lower advertised price from a local store with the same item in stock, we want to know about it. Bring it to our attention, and we'll gladly beat their price by 10% of the difference. Even after your Circuit City purchase, if you see a lower advertised price (including our own sale prices) within 30 days, we'll refund 110% of the difference.

Nope, that's exactly how it works. I did it this week for F-Zero GX. Bought it for 34.99 before the sale, brought it in on Sunday, asked for a 110% PM, they credited me back $22.

[waxHead]

do you just have to bring back the receipt? that's how I understand it, but I'd hate to get the game tonight and play it all w/e, only to find out I can't get my money back b/c I opened it.

[Santorum X]

XIII, worth the 12 mile drive and $10? Is the single player campaign worth it? Just want some feedback because none of my friends have this game and I don't have Xbox Live.

[bjschre]

OMG, I think my crdit card company loves me, this weekend is gonna kill my pocket book, XIII, Ghost Recon: IT, Clearance, and thats not even including best buy or other stores ads. I need to work more!

[Mishimaryu]

20-30% off clearance? Any other good titles?

[BigBen]

You should only need the receipt. Personally, I don't open the game, just in case I have a problem.

[msdmoney]

Man, you have be beat I think I only have 7 games unopened at the moment right now.

Damn no love for the cube XIII, maybe I'll pick it up for XBOX. :(

Same here, the last time I did this was when Beyond Good & Evil was on sale for $10. I brought both the game and the reciept but the clerk said that all he needed was the reciept and he gave me the 10% difference.

[alfonsosoriano]

XIII (xbox and ps2) $9.99


buy that and you will be happy. i got it for $20 a couple weeks ago and im loving it

[Dead of Knight]

Sphinx is a great platformer. Great deal for 10 if you like those games.

[nogard]

Some good deals this week. Thanks for the info.

[gamefreak117]

nice...
heck, I might even pick up XIII right now, and price match when the prices start taking effect!

thanks for the heads up! :)

[kaw]

Looks like I'll be picking up XIII and Sphinx. Thanks for the post trustcompany1013! =D>

[Admiral Ackbar]

Been looking for that. Don't have copies at m CC's.

I have 50 or so.

And I'm not joking.

I'm somewhere in that neighborhood. If you want to count games I've never beaten, it probably doubles.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Yep, probably the same here...

I'll do something in the offtopic forum and post all the games I have sitting. That might make an interesting discussion.

[Kaijufan]

If only there was a Circuit City near me, I would be picking up XII and some clearance items. The nearest store to me is over 100 miles away.

[lordopus99]

I picked it up at BB and used GGC and got it for 14.99 a couple weeks ago.

[hoshi]

Yep, probably the same here...

I'll do something in the offtopic forum and post all the games I have sitting. That might make an interesting discussion.

Well, it's one thing when someone has loads of $50 games unopened on their shelf. That's just nutty. But, when you try to hunt games down for cheap like any honest-to-goodness CAG, you know you have to buy it when you see it - or you'll never see it again. So, I wouldn't doubt that a lot of us have so many unopened/unplayed games. Personally, I lost track of what I've opened/played once I started keeping my games in CD folders.

And, woo-hoo... My tax return got here just in time. Was looking to pick up an AIW Radeon 9600, but may have to pass on it if CC has lots of goodies on clearance next week.

-Hoshi

[Admiral Ackbar]

By the way, I know the BB ads haven't come out yet. But who thinks that CC will Own BB again next week like they did this week with the Metroid/F-Zero deals.

They have asome pretty good stuff here. I'd like to see BB top it :)

[Drahken]

I still have a ton of unplayed PS1 RPG's . Heck I even have a Dreamcast(Bought it new for 50 bucks at Bestbuy a while back) with 5 or 6 games and I havn't played it yet either.

[Sporadic]

Well damn there goes that "no new games for 3 months" thing I was going to do. I just can't pass up XIII.

[BULL_Ship]

Meh fuck cc mine refuses to price match or take other stores coupons and nothing is ever in stock.

Its also in an awful location, its tiny, and noone ever leaves there with something in their hand. That place is bound to go out of business its on life support from the mother ship is my bet.

[illennium]

And I'm not joking.

I have 44 unopened current-generation games, about 10 more for PS1, 30 for PC/Mac (that I'll never play), and well over 100 opened but unplayed games over all consoles...

[evilmax17]

I've got 60+ unplayed games. Why don't you guys open your games? I always open my stuff right when i get it, and thumb through the manual. For all you know, you could open up one of your games and find a scratched up CDR and some folded pieces of notebook paper in place of a manual! It's been reported on these boards like 4 times this year!

[The Successful Dropout]

yeah...i always open my games as soon as i get 'em home or in the car...you never know what u could get....and sometimes their are offers inside that expire

[bobo2k4]

Does BB match the gift card giveaways too?

[bryankasch]

Well the reason I do it is pure value. I fyou decide to trade or sell it it will always be worth more. I got a sealed nes game from a contest win wiyth a bunch of games, and traded it (flinsontes game sealed and no not the high dollar one) jekl and hyde and one other cheapy game to someone for castlevania:harmony of dissonance and dynasty warriors 2. and sealed zelda games can go for 3-400 dollars on ebay.

[JCNY23]

does EB price match?

[JibbaJabba]

Damn!!!!! I was'nt going to buy anymore games for atleast a few weeks, but can't pass up XIII.
So I will pick it up tomorrow and just price match it sunday, so I would accually get it for $9 + tax. :D

[JibbaJabba]

does EB price match?

Up to $10 I think it is. But it is probably a YMMV thing just depends on the store and the drones working in it.

[n00bie]

That's pretty sad....You obviously love to spend money.

Why spend all that money if you aren't even going to open them? Maybe 3-4 games on the "backburner" is okay, but 74 games?

Even if you were rich, or had a decent enough job to where you could afford the games, what's the point? I buy games to play them, not to watch them pile up and then brag about how big my stack is on a message board.

[DT778]

yeah, XIII XBOX is finally affordable! too bad the GC one isn't on sale :(

I think I saw XIII for the gamecube on sale for $9.99 at gamecrazy. I'm in central cali.

The only thing sad about having a lot of games that you haven't played yet....is that their is not enough time in the day to get to 'em as fast as you'd like. People dont just buy games for bragging rights...and not play them. I have a crap load of games that I haven't gotten to yet...and why? Because I either got a really good deal on the game(s) and couldn't pass it up...or the game(s) is/are becoming rare, and regardless of me having the time to play it now or not, I wanted it before it became impossible to find (or too expensive) in the future for when I do have time to play it.

[MadFlava]

Yep, probably the same here...

I'll do something in the offtopic forum and post all the games I have sitting. That might make an interesting discussion.

Definitely do that Ackbar, I would like to see the list of stuff people bought but haven't opened yet. Might be able to work out some trades with people too.

the problem is whether or not you'll ever have enough time to play them all! I recently bought an XBox, now I have upwards of 30 games, mostly from the $3-$10 EB and $10 Best Buy sales. I bought Ninja Gaiden as well, and since I haven't beaten that yet, I've played one or two of the other games, but only for a few minutes.

between work and the rest of my life, I don't feel there's that much time for videogames. but I know I'll have something to do when I'm bored on a Sunday afternoon in the middle of winter :D

[msdmoney]

yeah...i always open my games as soon as i get 'em home or in the car...you never know what u could get....and sometimes their are offers inside that expire

I always open mine right away too, thats one of the best parts for me. Unless its a game I think I might return, then I will leave it unopened.

I bought most of the games when I had time to play them, but now I work 80 hours a week, so I'll never get to play them. I wasn't bragging--just commiserating with the Admiral. And yes, I do make good money (I'd better, given my hours). Those 74 games cost less than two days' salary. So don't sweat it.

Well I'm glad you're so comfortable with it. Why not celebrate by buying a few games on your lunch break?

[longislandlady]

I also have a ton of games I haven't played. I tend to buy a lot of used games so, with at least half my games, even though I haven't played them, they are open. I have about 70 PS2 games, 10 Gamecube games and about 50 PSX games. I've only beaten a few of those so far.

As for why I have all those games that I'll more than likely never get to play for long, let alone beat, it's because of the cheap-ass thing. If I see a good price for something, I'll pick it up. It's better to have it and not play it but at least have it should I want to play it later on than decide later on that I want to play it and not have it (and possibly not find it for a cheap price).

Also, I'm not always in the mood for a certain game. I switch around between games a lot. This way, I have a game for whatever mood I'm in.

My brother - now he's a different story. He picks up games for the cheap-ass reason but also because he's a collector. At one point, he had more PS2 games than I did and he doesn't even have a PS2. Yet between school and work, he never has time to play them.

Neither of us buy the games to brag about them (that would be pretty stupid).

[racerman8]

I forgot when I purchased XIII from CC. Need to go home after work and check to make sure it is still within 30 days so I could get a price match.

[yeldarb367]

I'm going to be spending a lot of money in May. I got F-Zero and Metroid Prime last week. Now XIII and Ghost Recon. Plus there are some good DVDs coming out May 18th and 25th. Thanks for the heads up.

XIII for Xbox sounds like a deal

Yup, I remembered getting snowed in 2 years ago during a blizzard and Guilty Gear X2 was the only thing that kepted all of us sane for 3 days before we could dig ourselves out. I have a lot of games I haven't gotten to yet that's because I saw them for cheap here on CAG. Sometime you can't pass up a good bargain, for instance XIII for $9.99. I don't think you will be ever able to find it cheaper new. It's probably going to be a $19.99 title while they keep producing it. I got Beyond Good and Evil for $9.99 and even though I haven't played it yet I'm glad I picked it up because it's now back to $19.99 and Best Buy doesn't keep in stock anymore (no ggc).

I got Beyond Good and Evil for $9.99 and even though I haven't played it yet I'm glad I picked it up because it's now back to $19.99 and Best Buy doesn't keep in stock anymore (no ggc).

that can be said for most of the games I've got now. I picked them up so I wouldn't have to spend more in the future, though I only buy games I'm pretty sure I'll like. I don't want to end up w/ a bunch of stuff I don't want to play.

I was able to find BG & E at BB when it originally dropped to $20, so I picked it up for $15. the game is terrific, great story, lots of fun to play. unfortunately I haven't made it all the way through yet, as I'm in the middle of Ninja Gaiden, but I'll get there eventually. if you want a fun game w/ a great story, give it a shot ;)

Cool I missed out on the Fry's City Of Heroes deal so maybe I'll pick it up. I dunno about the 15 bucks a month though, especialy since i'm playing FFXI right now :cry:

[waxHead]

Does XIII have multiplayer?

the XBox version has a sticker on the front stating it supports XBox Live. might want to check some reviews on it, try out www.gamerankings.com.

Hey, That's not right!!!!
Okay, so before this, about 1 week, i bought XIII for 19.99, i f I'm right, does that mean, i can go to circuit city on sunday and get the difference of 10 dollars?

yes. read through the previous posts, I discussed this earlier. just take in your receipt, you should be able to get it matched and get the discount.

[maxguy56]

Which exactly of these deals will be available in the website, as I dont think I'll be able to make it to a store on that day. Thanks a lot,

Anyone who works for CC have any idea about the 20-30% off. Like, are certain games nationwide 20-30% off or is it different at each store and yymv? Guess we'll find out tomorrow.

[Masterkyo]

Just call your local CC Videogames department then ask them "Do they have 20 %-30% off List". If they did you can come in then look at the list w/o any problem :)

[howard]

Thanks for posting this. I didn't get a Circuit City ad in my paper today for some reason.

[MrShow]

Here's a thought on how to get XIII for free:

Go to CC today with a printout of the current Staples $10 off $20 coupon, buy XIII with it so you get it for $10. Then take your receipt back after the 9th and have them adjust the original price to $10 so after that coupon you get it for free.

My closest CC is 30 min away and I was just there last night or else I'd try it myself.

[Masterkyo]

MrShow

Staples $10 off 20 coupon is work great at CC :)

I did pickup F-zero & Metroid Prime for $9.49 Each and Wario World $14.49 after coupon Pricematch :)

[gamefreak]

I called mine and they said they don't take coupons but will match. No GGC =(

[hohndog]

XIII is a fun game. I picked it up after the GGC for $14.99. Its a steal at $9.99, but I have no regrets paying more. It was worth it.

[epfarley1000]

Could someone explain to me what GGC stands for and how the staples coupon works? Thanks

[waxHead]

GGC: http://cheapassgamer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1440

to use the Staples coupon at Circuit City, your CC would have to accept competitor's coupons, so YMMV. if your CC does accept them, find the Staples coupon and try to apply it toward the XIII purchase. then tomorrow, go back to CC and get the remainder of the game price back from CC, which is the price difference between the original price ($20) and the new price ($10).

thing is, it's already Sat night, and all CC's are closed. so unless you can get them to honor last week's price on XIII tomorrow and let you use the Staples coupon, THEN go and match it for the sale price, you'd get it. at this point, that's highly unlikely.

[Trevor]

All CCs accept all competitor coupons(except maybe some mom 'n pop store or a coupon with strange restrictions).

If your CC doesn't you're not trying hard enough.

Sometimes I have to point out that it is their coporate policy to accept all coupons, or ask for a manager, but I have used BB coupons at 5 or more CCs in 3 different states.

oh, why thank you for letting me know :roll:

I was rejected at my CC trying to use the GGC, then asked to speak with a manager. the manager proceeded to tell me I could not use the coupon, and despite my best efforts, I have NOT found this in their store policy.

maybe out of the X number of CC stores across the country, every one you visited allowed this. this does not mean it's valid at every store.

find me where CC's store policy states they allow all competitor coupons, then I'll go back and try harder.

[Trevor]

Sorry Wax, you're the first person I've found who has actually really tried and been rejected.

I have been told by store managers that it is corporate policy (when the confused cashier sometimes calls them over) but I have never seen it in writing.

Sorry for your loss, but if I were you I'd try at different CCs or with different cashiers/managers.

[waxHead]

if there were more CC's w/in a reasonable driving distance, I definitely would try it at other stores. unfortunately, that's not the case. if I ever find the part of the store policy that states they must allow competitor coupons, I'll photocopy it and carry it around w/ me :D

[popps]

anyone know if the burbank circuit city has any XIII left in stock? (for price matching purposes)

[icruise]

Just ordered XIII for $9.99 at circuitcity.com. I imagine they'll go pretty quick if past sales have been any indication. They probably have a limited number alloted for online sales.

[TomCloud9]

I just got my order conformation so i am happy. Thanks for the post.

[qlos]

Just got my order confirmation for XIII, Ghost Recon: JS, and Rise of Nations

Thanks for the post

[longislandlady]

Picked up my copy of XIII from CC online. According to their website, the game isn't available at any of the b&m stores near me, so I'm glad I decided to be lazy and buy it online instead of driving there for nothing. :)

[mick16]

XIII is already sold out for Xbox online.

[The_Continental]

Ordered XIII for ps2 online - wasn't available in-store.

[jkam]

Grabbed the last PS2 XIII at my local CC. Thanks for the heads up.

[Trevor]

I bought it yesterday to be safe....will pricematch this week.

[Steggy]

time to go to bestbuy and buy xiii... hahahaha

[ValkyrieVF-1S]

Yay I picked up XIII and Braveheart at circuit city today. The CC in west covina had like 10 or so copies for the ps2.

[evilwrath666]

Just got XIII for Xbox in the Orange, CA Circuit City. I believe they have one left

[MICHAE2414]

I just picked up XIII for PS2 at the Circuit City in Mountain View, CA. They had 5 PS2 copies left and 2 Xbox copies left, and that was just an hour after the store opened!

[vpr]

Picked up Rouge Ops for Xbox since XIII was out. of stock (online).

Didn't want to not get anything :)

[MadFlava]

Bought XIII for Xbox at Fairfax, VA Circuit City. They only have a 2-3 for Xbox Left. About 6-7 XIII's for PS2. The Best Buy in Fairlakes only has XIII for Gamecube, sold out of PS2 and Xbox. I didn't visit Target this weekend.

[donssword]

Can anyone report on the clearanced titles? What is a new markdown, and what are the prices?

I asked if they had a list @ my local CC and they said "no."

Yeah honestly it's pretty lame. I asked mine, they said "Oh we always have em, right here in the clearance bin." I asked about anything new, she said no. Then she went on to mention how great this deal for XIII was. Okay.. Maybe that's why I brought iit to the counter to buy it?

This was in the Cucamonga, CA CC, about 30 mins after opening, and they had plenty of all. Actually had Disgaea, which wasn't there before. Shoulda scanned it =p

[lordopus99]

Ordered XIII for ps2 online - wasn't available in-store.

I was just there today and they had plenty. They had all the deals in stock.

[Wlogan31]

At my CC they had Mario Golf for GC for 25, Metroid Prime for 15, and F-zero GX for 15.

These part of the deal or just normal prices now.

(I thought Mario Golf was much more)

Those prices should have expired on Saturday. But you may have lucked out and your CC not change the label yets. They have to honor labeled prices.
