I'm in Tallahassee.
Darth: Nothing too special here. There's a few EB's, one Gamestop, a few Wal-Marts, a Sears, Best Buy, Circuit City, a place called Games4Less whose prices are no less than anywhere else...
The EB's are fine here, the Gamestop seems to have friendly employees. As always, Wal-mart seems to have things in stock that noone else does. Sears sucks, K-mart is TERRIBLE (if there is even a sale posted on the deal forums for K-Mart, i say don't bother checking the Tallahassee one.), Best Buy is okay, Circuit City is great (in my experience).
Tallahassee's not the greatest place for video games, but whatever.

I left Tallahassee almost a year ago now... wow was it really that long ago? I enjoyed my time there. Found plenty of good deals. Keep your eye on the EBGames, I usually went to the one on Ocala road (Closest to my house). And if you want to rent from BB, go to the one on Monroe as the one next to campus on Tennessee is always out of everything. Enjoy FSU, I know I did.

Yep, Sartori, Yeldarb, Suko_32 and I are also Tallahassee CAGers.
We used to get together and have pizza about a year and a half back but it sort of fell apart. Anybody feel like getting together again, let me know...
We're always up for some Smash Brothers and Mario Party...
Or Battlefront 2...

I live in Tally too. I agree with the Gamers4Less, he is a ripoff and has the same stuff in both stores. I use to go to local Blockbusters and get them to pull stuff off their shelves and sell for about $12.99, plus they always have the B2G1 deal. It's hard to this anymore since now they send back their overflow of games to headquarters. Let me know if there any deals out.
SilverPaw750
05-21-2006, 02:49 AM
I'm wondering if anyone in Tally has ever had any luck scoring deals at the Pawn shops around here? I'd love to go around looking, but there are about 1,000,000 pawn shops in tallahassee, and I'd like to know which ones to scope out.

I would be up for some Mario Party or Super Smash someday. I'll be here during the summers since I now go to UF for college. I'm taking a summer class at FAMU since I missed FSU's registration deadline.
My neighborhood doesn't really have garage sales like my old one back then.

You went from FSU to UF? You turncoat! J/K, but yeah I'll be up here until the end of next month when summer school ends, then going back home to Ft. Lauderdale for about a week, then up to Orlando for the rest of the summer for a clerkship.

Just got my Master's from FSU and I must say I am going to miss my pawn shops finds. For the 3 months I lived in Tally I got 2 complete Final Fantasy VIIs, Wanderers from Ys III, Super Smash Brothers Melee ($3) w box no manual, Gradius III & IV (.50 cents), Legacy of Galahad, to name a few. To make a long story short, Hit up the pawn shops (The Tharpe, N Monroe, to Tennessee Ave., loop will bring you to 7 decent pawn shops).

I just went to Circuit City and...
-There's 3 Dragon Qust VIII left
-tons of Half-Life 2 and Metroid Prime 2
-Saw path of neo's
and ask if you want to know. I wasn't really paying much attention since they were playing the theme to Kingdom Hearts II in the CD section with the music video (was the vocal version). I know, mind boggling since this was at CC.
SilverPaw750
05-22-2006, 07:52 PM
Thanks for confirmation suko - will probably pick up PoN for $10.
And now that I have some confirmation that the pawn shops may be worth visiting, I'll probably make a loop sometime in June.

Much late, but I am a fellow Tallahasseean. Just recently became active on CAG again. Soo...hi! Heh. I found a new girlfriend a few weeks ago and she works at Toys r Us. She is a gamer and revealed to me that she tends to buy most of the penny guides there, grr! No wonder I have not found any in a long time. She won't share either, bah!
As for the comments about games4less, while they are no cheaper then anywhere else, its about the only place you can walk in and buy atari/nes/snes/genesis games save for your yard sales or pawn shops. You can find some rare items in there and old consoles. I picked up a Saturn from Games4Less and it works just fine. If they ever get another Jaguar or 3DO ill be all over it! :D
Z-Saber
06-14-2006, 06:41 PM
Thanks for bumping the thread. Spurred my memory.
I was down their last week. I ended up getting a new Electroplankton (apparently your EB/GS stores have them? I thought it was only available online, but maybe they are everywhere now) from the Governor's Square Gamestop, as well as Sonic Rush, Metroid Prime: Hunters, and Metroid Prime Pinball with B2G1 from the Tallahassee mall EB.
You guys seem to have a lot of preowned .hack episodes 2 and 3 for some reason.

Only game I ever bought at Games4Less: Super Mario Bros. 2 for the NES. Doesn't work. I finally looked inside the bottom of the cardtridge...40% of the metal connectors AREN'T THERE! So I ended up buying a copy off of ebay (which came with the manual too - awesome!), which HAS all the metal connectors, and works just fine. Blah.

The EB on Ocala and Tennessee was cleared out of pretty much any decent used 360 games during the buy 2 get 1 free sale. Oh well, I still got Oblivion which is the only reason I went in there in the first place. Also picked up Burnout Revenge and Condemned since I couldn't pass up the deal.
Otherguy676
06-20-2006, 02:55 AM
Since Im no longer in Tallahassee I guess I can tell everyone to go check all the Goodwills. I found a bunch of good deals at the Tallahassee ones (the one on Appalachee by CC is amazing, especially if you have a Saturn) and the one on Pensacola seemed to get good SNES games in a lot.
Anyone find anything good at the pawn shops recently in Tally? Im interested to see if anything good is popping up. I am coming back when my friend graduates FSU and I am trying to figure out if it worth my time to hit the pawn shop route when im there.

If anyone goes down to the local CC, can you check to see if they have any of the following games? I'll be busy for the next few weeks, and really can't spare a trip to CC (20 minutes from my house) if I'm not actually going to buy anything.
Xbox:
Blitz the League
Matrix Path of Neo
DS:
Metroid Prime Pinball
GBA:
Drill Dozer
Wario Ware
PS2:
Super Monkey Ball DX

I live a couple of blocks from the CC, just returned from there with Pirates!, DBZ Supersonic Warriors 2, and Mario Pinball. I know there are no Metroid Pinballs, it was on my list of things to get. No Wario Ware from what I can remember, no Blitz for any system.
There are a ton of Mario Party GBA's, Mario Vs. Donkey Kong. There is one Mario 2 left (gba), there is a copy of Legacy of Goku (doublepack), a Karaoke Revolution (ps2), couple Sigma Star Sagas, lots of Rogue Agents (ds), Madden 05 & 06 (ds). I think those are the most important ones. Any popular RPG's for any system are long gone. I had to buy Lunar and FF IV off of another CAG.

Alright, thanks Inferno. I might pick up MvDK or Mario 2 (lost my cart...but still have the box!), and MAYBE madden 06 for DS, just because it's so cheap.

There is a bin near the edge of the gamecube section of old $9.99 games from the last sale so Blitz the League and PoN is probably there. There are no Metroid Pinballs, Drill Dozer, nor Wario Ware (I know it sucks). I did see like 2-3 Super Monkey Ball DS for PS2. I don't think our store had any Lunar DS's to begin with. I might swing by in 50 min to get Mario Pinball and Mario vs DK later. Anyone know if there is Pokemon Sapphire or Ruby, DK Country 2, or Halo Triple Pack (I doubt)?
Z-Saber, it's alright. You probably saved me some money anyway.

Okay I just went. To SilverPaw, there are 2 Blitz the League in the Xbox section near the PH titles and I didn't really look for Path of Neo (sorry) but I know there is the PS2 version.
Gofishn, there were no Triple Pack at CC. The only thing they had was that halo map thingy.
I got:
-Pac N Roll
-(2) Spider-Man 2 PSP
-Some basketball PSP game
-Mario vs DK
-Donkey Kong Country 2
Pretty much no more good games there. I wanted to pick up Metroid Zero cause I remember seeing two of them, but both gone. Also, super mario world for GBA wasn't there.

This is kinda unrelated to deals, but I'd like to request help anyways.
If anyone HASN'T noticed already, Comcast RUNS Tallahassee. But my family and myself have fucking HAD it with their inconsistent performance, lousy reliability, and terrible customer service. Are there any alternatives?
I doubt there's anything that offers tv/internet in a package like they do, but is there even another highspeed internet provider (not DSL) in Tallahassee? Or another cable TV provider? We're ready to go satellite if NEED BE, but whenever I'm at a friend's with sattelite and the weather get's lousy...the tv becomes useless.
If we can't find anything else, I'll find the president of comcast and bitch slap him :)

09-29-2006, 11:21 PM
Target hasn't been putting their excess out on clearance, which is weird, I was just there today and couldn't find anything.
ToysRUs, however, also on Appalachee, had some awesome deals today, lots of stuff for ten bucks or less. They have a B2G1 on 19.99 games, but the entire display rack they advertise that deal on has games marked at 19.98 so the deal doesn't apply to them. It's the shadiest thing in a city of shady things.

Anyone here been to the CompUSA in Tally lately? I went this weekend and picked up 7 xbox games on clearance. They had a ton of stuff left and a lot of nice deals on $4.98 and $9.98 games. Most of what they had left were xbox but there were some PS2 including eye toy play2 with camera for $15. I personally got:
Gun-$4.98
Burnout 3-$4.98 (I got the last non-PH)
Arena Football-$4.98
Capcom Classics-$4.98
MVP NCAA 06-$4.98
Namco Muesem 50th Ann.-$4.98
Forza-$4.98
PS2 Stand-$.98 (They seriously had over a hundred of these things)
There were quite a few others like pandora tomorrow or NHL 06 for $7.xx and chaos theory for $9.98, but I already had those.;)
My total was $38.xx after tax. Pretty good I'd say.

Any Guitar Hero II sightings? I checked Circuit City, Best Buy, and Target on Appallachee with no luck.

No guitar hero II, but when I went to the walmart on the Northside of Tallahassee, (can't remember street names for shit) I saw the first one on clearance with the guitar for 38.78 or some other obscure walmart price. (it was under 40 bucks though) There were only 3 or 4 left, so if you want one, I would probably get over there soon, as it was last week when I saw them. Oh, and I saw an anti-deal at one of the goodwill centers. (on the same street as walmart, sorry that's all I got) They had an original gameboy, the big grey brick one, for...$20... What the fuck is that? The same goodwill had full-sized stereos and a mini-fridge for less than that.:lol:
As for those 360 games at compUSA, I saw them as well, but honestly it wouldn't be worth the drive out there. The only thing really worthwhile was quake 4 and $20 really still isn't a CAG price. They did have a manager's special on a couple new release 360 games though, although those are usually only like $5 off.

Indeed, that was a great store. I remember as they were closing up shop, I managed to get a number of good deals on games that had to go.
Sigh...I really do miss that place. Well, at least there's the Games4Less, still. They're kind of pricey, but it's just a really great little store. If they ever close up, I don't know what I'll do.

I don't visit Games4Less very often, but I'm glad they are still around. A great place to get older stuff you can't find in EB/GS. George (the owner) is a good guy if you ever talk to him.
Hey, what's up guys. I'm pretty new to the forums, but I'm also from Tallahassee. Just reporting in.

Another Tallahasseean here.
Why do all the used game stores in town suck so much compared to the internet? I remember when Games4Less opened and I was so excited - now days everytime I go in there I just can't believe how expensive their used games are. They're only marginally cheaper than what BestBuy sells games used for.

No wonder it's so hard to find deals around here. Too much competition ;)

Do any of you guys go to FSU, and if so, are there any gaming clubs? I'm not hardcore into anything, but just looking for down to earth people who game with DS, 360, and just like to chill out once in a while.

I have to agree that Games4Less is somewhat pricy, but on more than one occassion, I've bought a game from there even though I knew of a better deal on CAG, just to support them. Because the employees kick ass, are extremely helpful, and have an opinion on just about every game I ask about (and that opinion is usually right...they told me Perfect Dark wasn't worth $25, I bought it anyways...yeah, they were right.).
So I encourage other Tallahasseeans to shop at Games4Less unless there's a >$10 savings on a game somewhere...if it's only $5-$10 off, spend the extra money to support them.

I was just in games4less on Thomasvile Rd picking up a Wii Mote (Yeah, they actually had a few this morning) and to my supprise they had Wii systems in, however they are in a bundle with 4 games and it works out to be retail price but at least they let you chose any 4 games. This really isn't a deal accept the fact that they actually have some in stock, they also had a few classic controllers in as well.
I bought my remote around 12 so if anyone is looking for a Wii and are planning on getting extra games they have them in stock.

Anybody want to buy my 360? I'm asking $320, it's a premium and barely used. I bought it in December when my other 360 broke and used it for about 3 weeks before my old one got back. Includes everything that a Premium 360 includes plus a Nyko Intercooler which I never really used. The hard drive and wireless controller have never been used either since I just used my old ones. The build date is 8/17/06. If no one here is interested, I'm going to put it on eBay. I figured I'd give you guys first crack at it plus I wouldn't have to deal with eBay fees and potential scammers. If anyone is interested PM or e-mail me.

Any of you guys into PC gaming? Aware of any LANs? I occasionally do some at my house, but it's small and I have hardly any gamer friends. I'd love to find a regular LAN party.

I haven't been in a while, so I'm not sure if they still do it or not, but last I checked, there's a LAN/console gaming party held on the first Saurday of every month at the Progressive Center over on Gadsden St off South Monroe.
Does anyone here know if they still run the parties there these days?

Just a mention, but if you're looking for a Wii, the K-Mart on Ap Parkway is always a good place to check. The store is a dump (they have the most insanely mismanaged electronics section) but when I was there going through the clearance stuff a couple weeks ago I asked one of the workers if they had any Wiis - she said they did, and now I've got one. They don't put them out on shelves or anything - why I don't know. Things tend to sell better when you put them out there.
Anyway, they had a ton of Zelda: Wind Waker and Luigi's Mansion. That was about all that interested me off the NGC list.

Don't know if these are hard to find anymore or not, but at BB they have some Wiimotes, nunchucks, and points cards if anyone needs them.
Also, I'll be here in the summer if anyone cares :)

May be coming back up to FSU for Law School (been away for a year), any good finds up in Tally recently?

For me it's been pretty barren lately.
If you end up here for law school let me know, I can hook you up with a bunch of outlines and what not. I'm a 2L right now, but I should be graduating in December.

Yeah, Tallahassee hasn't brought me any good deals lately. BB was SACKED the day of the sale.
By the way, has anyone ever been to "Folmer Gun & Pawn"? I always pass it on Tenessee street...it's in the crack-house looking gray building, with stuff written on the windows. It looks EXTREMEMLY sketchy, so naturally, I'm inclined to go. :lol:

If anyone is intersted in Pokemon Diamon and Pearl Games 4 less seems to be selling it early.
SilverPaw did you check Folmer Pawn shop? I've gone in there in the past but never came out with anything good.

I've been in a few times, though it's been a few months. I remember seeing plenty of Genesis games, and a good number of PS2/Cube/Xbox games. Worth a look, I'd say.

Bump I guess even though it's not needed.
Went to TRU today, and I saw several Syphon Filters for PSP $9.98. Grabbed one myself since I've heard nothing but good things.
