Have you seen the Kaiser Permanente commercial with the kinda chubby boy talking about how his life was a mess, etc.? It's the perfect combo of funny and cute.The drinking was the worst. . .

Random thoughts:
I have a crush on Dagmar Midcap (weatherwoman on CBS46).

Hell to the yes. She is super fine...But not enough to make me watch CBS46 news. :roll: I'm a WSB guy. Glenn Burns ain't that sexy, but that HD weather gear is. ;)
But, of course, no discussion of local newscasts would be complete without this old chestnut:

:lol: Yes! Plus the part where he's neglecting his friends. He's just sitting in front of the TV while the dog in the background couldn't look more sad.:rofl: That advertising agency deserves an award.
I knew Dagmar was gorgeous but...:drool: It's silly for a grown man to be acting like this but...huzzah.
Yeah, when it comes to serious weather (like the tornadoes) it's WSB all the way. I didn't realize until then just how good their computer imaging was. I flipped over to 11Alive during the coverage and it was practically laughable by comparison.

Saw 3 Odin Spheres at the CC in Kennesaw (Barrett) and 1 in Acworth (Cobb Pkwy), no Dawn of Manas at either. They're behind other games - already have OS so have at them.
Thanks! Picked up Odin Sphere this morning.

Odin Sphere is totally off my radar, but everyone seems so hyped for it. RPG?
BrandsmartUSA has the following this weekend:
PS2
Grand Theft Auto: LCS 14.88
Guitar Hero 3 game only 38.88
Official Memory Card 2 pack (reb/blue) 28.88
WWE 2008 28.88
360
Mass Effect 44.88
Wii
SSBB 38.88
Zelda Twilight Princess 34.88
PS3
Rock band game only 44.88
40 Gig system 378.88
Why is it always .88 with these people?

Why is it always .88 with these people?
Because it sounds so sweet rolling off that announcer's tongue at 88 mph on the TV ads?
I dunno, but we were just joking about that place at lunch today... and now I'm considering a trip up there for GH3. Must resist.
Anyway, no Odin Sphere at Northpoint or Perimeter or Buckhead CC. Boooo!
At least I found Paper Mario:TTYD and that Pokemon game for GCN for $8.96 at the Buckhead store. They had Starfox Assault left at that price, too, along with a few other reasonably interesting titles. There was a Rock Band PS2 disc-only with a hand-written label marked at $29.99. Tempting, but I passed.
Also, one copy of ShadowOTC PS2 left at Northpoint Target for $10. I bought one. :) Also also, one copy of SOCOM 2 for $5. Enemy Territory: Quake Wars was $10 (2x, at least).
So, I really need to play Odin Sphere, it sounds like?

I just realized I didn't specify that GH3 looks to be game only as well. You could pick up a paper with their ad (saturday? friday?) and price match at a more local store. I've never actually been there although I've used their ad a few times.
El Gray
03-29-2008, 12:17 AM
I've also just remembered that GH3 disc-only for PS2 was also $40 at Target... so it's not really worth going to Brandsmart for the extra dollar off.

shnikies! 45 bucks for rock band game only sounds RIPE! i have been pondering pickin that up since the GH3 controller works for it and apparently activision doesnt give a shit about DLC. It was cool to have a local band I see out and about like Mastodon have a song on there, but it sucked to have to buy a freakin linkin park song just to get it.
Brandsmart has good deals though seriously. I got my HDTV there when the PS3 came out and got a pretty sweet price that I still haven't seen beat many times.
Anyone seen a deal on Orange Box PS3? I read on 1up that they finally patched it so it runs better, seems like a good time get a good price...
Wolfkin

Odin Sphere was a 2D RPG that looked beautiful.
Very much desired by many of us. However it's an Atlus game which means low quantity. Almost insta-rare.

Haven't seen it on sale for PS3. I have it for the 360 and LOVE it. But I'll keep an eye out for you.
That price on Mass Effect is pretty sweet. May have to bite on that. Prices good through Sunday?

Made a trip to Hiram, down to Douglasville and over to Cumberland. Saw 3-4 Odin Spheres at Hiram and Douglasville each and 1 Dawn of Mana left after I bought one at Cumberland (didn't check Cumberland for OS cuz once I found the Mana, I left. All marked incorrectly but they'll ring up at the clearance price.

Has anyone been able to find either Supreme Commander or Supreme Commander Forged Alliance at the $7.48 price mark at their Targets?
The cheapest I've found SC for was $14.98 and I haven't even seen SCFA on clearance at any of my Targets yet. Yet the Target clearance thread is rampant with people who have found both for $7.48.

Lots of those DS game and gear kits at the Mansell Wal-Mart now marked down to about $15. I got the last visible Starfox today, but there's a CRAPLOAD of EBAs, if anyone doesn't own that fine game. Also, a few each of Polarium, board games, and some ATV title. GBA kits, too.
They still haven't marked down the Wii Points. BOO.

You know, the description seemed pretty reasonable until I read "1-day tour of Tokyo with Cheapy D". I wonder if anyone will actually believe it...
At my age, I'm pretty seasoned on Apr.l Fool's Day, so I don't really believe anything on this day.

Yeah, exactly. Thanks for the offer though, I appreciate it. Been looking for BD on the cheap. I'll have to check out some of the closer surrounding Target's and see if I get lucky. Saw some Stranglehold's at the Kennesaw Target but they both ring up at $29.xx for some reason.

Went to the Acworth Walmart on Cobb Pkwy (the newer one further North - past the CC and Best Buy). Saw a bunch of Grim Grimoire's & Rogue Galaxy's in the $20 bin along with some other games. Saw a Blue Dragon in there but it rang up at 39.94 so I left it. They also have a bin mixed with Blu-Rays and HD-DVDs there for $20. Didn't see much but I also wasn't looking to buy anything. $5 DVDs were actually well sorted so you could see everything in it. Picked up Rocky I (Special Edition - with commentaries and extras), Rocky 2, Raging Bull, and Terminator 2 (2 Disc CE).
mitch079
04-07-2008, 12:01 AM
There's also a few Sega Saturn games and a couple of PS1 games at the Goodwill on Cobb Pkwy in Kennesaw. All I remember seeing was Bug for the Saturn and Virtual Pool for the PS1 among about 4-5 others. I bought WSB98 for my collection for 5.XX and Tekken 3 for the PS1. When it comes to the Saturn, if it isn't Nights or Panzer Dragoon Saga, I wouldn't know what games were there and if they were worth anything or not. The games I bought were complete and the discs were in near mint condition, no scratches or marks from what I could tell.

Don't know if anyone is interested in the $4.99 DVDs at CC this week but I picked up a few.
As of late Sun. afternoon, Perimeter had around a half dozen Kill Bill Vol.2's (I took the last Vol.1 & a Vol.2).
Cobb Parkway had 2 Children of Men left after I grabbed one (1 was fullscreen though).
Both had some copies of Rocky Horror Picture Show with Perimeter having a few more.
Perimeter also had Master and Commander, From Hell, and Breach (2-3 of each).
Of course all of 'em are standard editions but $4.99 is a good price regardless.

Glad to hear it. I got:

- Marvel Ultimate Alliance for 360 for $9
- Oblivion GOTY Ed. for 360 for $45
Duluth was definitely the better of the two options. They had a pretty staggering selection of new and used stuff. Didn't have time to do a thorough inventory, but was happy to walk out with my finds. Prices at Micro Center aren't great, but this coupon meant many good deals. Hope they offer it again in the future. I got on their e-mail list just in case.
I was able to use the coupon on Friday and Sunday at Duluth. Got the PS2 Williams pinball for $5 + tax on Friday. Came back on Sunday with my kids and got a used 360 The Outfit for $5, my son picked up PGR3 for a penny and my daughter picked up a new 360 Acme Arsenal for $10. Saw some others there that I would have picked up if I had the time to go back for more :D Hopefully the coupon comes back soon.

Yeah, Wii points were going to be my fall back yesterday, but I found those two games I really wanted for less than I was likely to find them elsewhere (after coupon). Kinda surprised that as of Sunday afternoon there was so much left to choose from (including plenty of points cards for all systems). Word of this deal must not have spread very far.

I was at a Wal-Mart in Bremen, GA. (rural west Georgia).
They had a lot of Wii and DS stuff on clearance. They items were strange combinations in plain white packages (with clear plastic windows on the front of the boxes). It looked like tey might have been Wal-Mart bundles.
What I got was a Classic Controller and a controller sleeve for $12. A classic controller sleeve and 2000 Wii point card for $12 and Elite Beat Agents, a DS soft case, and 3 styli for $8.
I don't even care about the controller sleeves but 2000 points for $12 is pretty cool.
The weird thing, they had the normal packaged classic controllers and 2000 point cards just 10 feet away at regular price.

Did everyone take advantage of the Micro Center coupon deal over the weekend?Doh! Was busy this weekend and forgot all about it. Probably wouldn't have had time to get out there anyway. Glad to see some CAGs get some deals there. Just realized that there were several "clearance" last gen games that were about $10 too much last time I was there. Starting to get bummed on missing out. .
Saw a few 360 Simpsons game at Best Buy Stone Mountain for 70% off of $39.99 = $11.99.I started to get upset that I spent a few more bucks on it at Target and then realized it was a 12.48 game and not a 14.98 one.
Also, if anyone sees a F1 for PS3 on clearance at target please let me know. There were a ton in this area and then most or all disappeared while it was still 29.98!

$499 new, right? In reality, that's only $50 more than I would spend on a used 20GB with a 1-year warranty.

Yeah, I would hope everyone knows about that by now.
The problem I have with the 80GB is the half-assed BC. Either do it right, or not at all IMO. I'd rather pay 400 and have none, or 500 and get it all, not 500 for some. Even with a DS3 and MGS4. If I had games that worked on the 80GB, it would by far be the best deal. Unfortunately, almost all of my games are said to have major issues.
I found a 60GB at the Big Chicken K-Mart today. More than I wanted to spend, but I felt I couldn't pass the opportunity by for near perfect BC. Oh well, I'll sell my Ipod and my backup cell phones to cover it.

Oh, I know.
I was thinking about it, and if I can sell my PS2 to cover MGS4, then you're looking at a DS3 in exchange for better BC. I think the better BC is well worth not having a controller I basically know nothing about.

So I guess the 60GB model has the actual hardware to support "true" BC, while the 80GB only supports it with software emulation, similar to the 360??
I have been a 360 guy for so long, I know little about the PS3. That's why I had my eye on the new 80GB PS3, but maybe I'll reconsider.
CocheseUGA
04-08-2008, 01:37 PM
As far as I know, yes. The 20GB and 60GB had the Emotion Engine inside. The 80GB is software emulation, the 40GB has no emulation for PS2. I believe all are software-emulation PS1.
I'm sure someone can correct me, but that's what I was told. I was going to get a used 20GB from EBStop, but after spending the money on a 1-year warranty, I was looking at $440 and no wifi. For $60 more I went with new.
I could also more easily sell this one if I ever ran into a reason to down the road.

You mean like the 360? That annoys me more. MS charges $100 for their wireless adapter (which is something that should be integrated anyway). Companies love making accessories cause they can over charge for everything.

HURRY! HURRY! HURRY!
They are on a front table immediately after you walk in, in front of the Wireless department.
Got the last one! They had moved them to a rack on the aisle in the middle of the video game section. All the 70% off games were marked with blue dots, which was the signal to the cashier they needed a manager override (I didn't have to say anything). Bust a Move Wii was still there, as was Pirates of the Caribbean, Cars: Mater National, and several copies of Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon for PSP.
I found at least two more copies of The Simpsons Game (marked $39.99) in among the regular 360 games. They did not have blue dots on them, but maybe the manager just missed them. You might be able to get them marked down. The Devil's advocate in me says those blue dots are very easy to find at your local office supply store.....:roll:8-) But that's getting into Fat Wallet territory.

The whole thing with different HD's to justify keeping the price high just annoys me. I won't bite on a PS3 until it hits $300, if not $250. I know I'll be waiting a while but that's fine with me. I have a ridiculous backlog to keep me busy until it happens.

There were a couple in the case at the Northlake Target marked at 41.Thanks! The unmarked ones that were in Snellville by my house for 41.98 (scanned) this weekend apparently dropped to 14.98 and were marked yesterday and were gone when I got there today, but I found the last one unmarked and 14.98 at the Steve Reynolds location today.
$499 new, right? In reality, that's only $50 more than I would spend on a used 20GB with a 1-year warranty.
Damn, may have to make the drive for that. I'll also check the one here in Marietta that got turned into a Sears Essentials.Oops. I shoulda specified prices, I'm 99% that the 60GB at BB/GR is $450 new and KMart is $499. I'd say the drive to Snellville and back isn't worth saving $50 between gas, time and traffic frustrations so I wouldn't worry about that extra 50 too much unless you can find one at a local BB/GR.
You mean like the 360? That annoys me more. MS charges $100 for their wireless adapter (which is something that should be integrated anyway). Companies love making accessories cause they can over charge for everything.Aren't there other companies that make wireless adapters and sell them for the same price? Not that I'm standing up for M$ or anything especially since the hard drive thing is what really irks me and my constantly full puny 20 GB drive.

Not that I'd do it, but I wondered what would prevent some devious individual from dotting whatever they want. I ddi see that they put the dots on the actual game before putting it in the display case, so I guess that may be a way for "foolproofing" the dot scheme. That and what the BB in Tucker does (tagging only the top game or two with a clearance sticker) just doesn't make sense to me. What does a blue dot mean without explanation?

Pretty good haul and finds today around the Targets in Kennesaw/Marietta/Acworth:
Acworth (Cobb Pkwy) - PS3 - NCAA Football 08 19.98, MLB 07 9.98, Orange Box (PS3) 29.98. Also found 3-4 of the Williams Pinball Hall of Fame for the Wii there for 19.99, they're in the aisle with the $30 and under games on the top of one of the racks. Was there Sunday and didn't see them so they must have just gotten them in. Also picked up the last Lair (PS3) for 29.98. Wanted it for 14.98 but with it being the last copy, I figured it might not last.
Kennesaw (Barrett Pkwy) - probably the weakest - saw Boogie (PS2), HSM (PS2) and Singstar Amped (game only). Bought the Singstar game for 20.98, I forget the other prices. They had Motorstorm (PS3) for 41.98, NBA 07 (PS3) for 9.98 (endcap), 1 Genji (PS3) for 14.98 (endcap) and Orange Box (PS3) for 41.98
West Marietta (Dallas Hwy) - all PS3 games and on the endcap - Def Jam Icon (2 copies) 14.98, Tony Hawk Project some # lol - 14.98, Godfather (1 copy) 14.98, Simpsons (4 copies) 34.98, Motorstorm (1 copy) 29.98, NBA Street Homecourt (3 copies) 14.98, Marvel Ultimate Aliiance (2 or 3 copies) 14.98, Tony Hawk Proving Ground 24.98. They also had a couple copies of Madden 07 and Tiger Woods 07. 2 copies of SOTC for the PS2 (GH) for 4.98. Bought the only copy of F.E.A.R. for the PS3 for 14.98 there as well. NBA 08 for the PS2 was 9.98 and I think 29.98 for the PS3 (couple of copies of each). Oh yeah, and 1 Genji for the PS3 for 14.98.

I just signed up. I know they won a Cheapy award for the favorite online game trading service amongst the CAGs so I am hoping to have a better experience with this than the last service I used. Gottaplay.com sucked, i sent a game out and earned points and I have been waiting damn near a year to receive any of the games on my list.
$30 bucks for Orange box sounds like a deal I've been waiting for but I am downtown not Acworth...doh!

I'm a member and I've had decent success. I've been able to unload some unwanted games and was able to get some crap games in return that I otherwise would not have been able to justify paying for! The wait can be pretty long for in-demand new releases.

I was at the Edgewood Target a little while ago. They had NBA Street Homecourt, and Fear for PS3 and 360 Def Jam Icon for $14.98. They also had Supreme Commander for $14.98 and the Warhammer 40K Dawn of War compilation with both expansions for 20.98. All of this was on the endcaps away from the game section.
At the Atlantic Station Target they had some interesting deals in the PC Game section. They had two Guitar Hero 3 bundle packages for 40 bucks. Also, Rainbow Six Vegas (first one) for 9.98. There were a few other deals. I grabbed the last Neverwinter Nights 2 for 14.98.

Welcome to the thread. Unfortunately, those of us in the Marietta area are in the weakest deal zone. (As you probably already know our BB is probably the worst in ATL; as is our Target).
Luckily for you your work is close to the Kennesaw stores, as there are plenty of deals to be had at that Target and BB. I find myself driving there often, both for deals and for the more flexible price matching at that BB (Cobb parkway makes you wait while they call every store to check inventory- regardless of wether it's a national store/sale or not).
I'll try and post any deals I spot at either location. It would be great if you could do the Monday scouting at the Kennesaw Target and BB near your work; It would save me a drive.
In any event welcome, we update often. I can honestly say we are the best regional CAG group for finding those clearance deals and helping each other out.

I used to work there, and they fired a friend over some b.s. circumstances so I stay away from that place and give all my loot to best buy.

Northlake Target has one more F1 Championship for PS3 at $14.98 (marked $41.98 in the case -- you'll have to ask for a scan). There is one Lair in the case, but it scans as marked at $41.98.
There is a pretty large stack of 360 Strangleholds off to the side in the case. They are not marked. I did not ask for a price check, but that could be a potential gold mine.

I didn't know they were going to drop the prices on these or I would have gone back for Manhunt 2 and held out for Soldier of Fortune Payback.

There's a Gamecrazy in Acworth? I know there's a Hollywood Video across from the McDonalds Neocisco mentioned and I've gotten some cheap crap there, emphasis on crap, when they had a 3 for 15 sale on 9.99 and under games. The selection there is usually poor.
Possibly. It's a HV on the west side of 41 south of Target. Not a true GC (see quotes), but much more than the usual HV. Absolute crap, but maybe I'm used to better prices elsewhere.
Hope to hit one of the TC GS stores to get Ratchet tomorrow for $38. Stupidly, I forgot to pick up MGS2 @ North Point, and that's the closest one.

Alright guys can we get some feelers out on supplies of Lair?
I know it's pretty terrible because of the controls; But, with the analogue control patch and a likely $14 price drop (either this week or next) I am wondering if I could get some ideas of where a few are before this Mondays price drop. (Suffice it to say- at $14 I am in for sure).
There's a couple at Edgewood. Saw em there last night, in the glass.

So as of 7:30 today (tues) there are about 10 PS3 Orange Box, 3 Lair, at the 29.38 price at the Atlantic Station Target. They were at the 40 price point the previous week, I would imagine that they might drop to 15 next monday, (if there are any left). All in the display case so, there is a strong possibility that they wont be hidden. I bit on the orange box last week for $29.38 at the Cobb target and I've got a question for you all; Target won't honor the difference if I bring my receipt in and they dropped to 15 right? I mean they are clearance games and its not a price drop. But I'm a CAG so, gotta know.

Yes, that's a dangerous game. I think the best you can hope for (if you want to play) is to buy it at 30 bucks, then hope there's still a copy at 15 the following week. Buy that, and then return the $30 purchase.
Worst case scenario is you get an OK deal vs. a great deal. At least you have the game, right?
Me? I'm gonna hold out another week!

I have the week off and am playing some backlog of games so I doubt I'll be hitting West Marietta this week. I did have to go to the Target in Acworth for a USB cable yesterday, which it turns out I didn't need and will return. Saw Orange Box for PS3 dropped to 29.98, 1 copy was left, NCAA Football (PS3) still 19.98 (2-3 copies), NBA 08 (PS3) 29.98 (3-4 copies), Stranglehold (X360) 1 copy 14.98, a couple of Simpsons (X360) don't remember the price, Boogie (PS2) 14.98, all endcap games were gone, these were all in the display cases.

If you are in the Northern suburbs, the Target at the corner of States Bridge (Pleasant Hill) road and 141 (Medlock Bridge/Peachtree Parkway) has about 5 copies of Wii Pinball Hall of Fame. They do ring up as 19.99 but there is the 13.98 sign and had no issues like others have mentioned getting it adjusted. They were on the bottom row of the games that are on the aisle instead of being in the cabinets.
I also saw quite a few copies of Viva Pinata spread out in the section. They all had clearance stickers marked 7.48.

I've been to about six Targets in the last two weeks, and all of them had four or five copies of the Williams Pinball Collection, so it seems it's not as hard to find as it was when it first came out. Viva Pinata is also plentiful in just about every Target. But thanks for the pricing information. I didn't know they were selling them lower than marked in some places.

If anyone is looking for the C.City 12+1 month XBL subsription cards at $39.99, the perimeter store has zero in stock.

They had one copy after I left. Not sure why they were there because they had 4 or 5 that were still in the ps2 area at full price without the green dot indicating it was on clearance.
I was saving up for the 360 version but my cheap butt will keep this one instead. Pretty fun game, only thing that sucks is that my son can't play along due to his POS React guitar controller not working with the game.

it's..different. getting around in PH is way easier than in windwaker because the world is smaller. plus in the temple you're actually doing something as opposed to just sailing.
i would've liked to have seen PH be a few levels longer and have some more side quests. it was enjoyable, but felt short for a zelda game.

There is also a place called WABAGames.com near Peachtree Ind and Pleasant Hill that had all the Rock Band and other consoles set up. It might be a little easier to rent out as it sounds like a smaller operation than Battleand Brew. The number is 6784179222. Congrats to your Bro.

Battle n Brew is dope, I can't imagine anywhere being a "smaller operation" though. lol. Great place to get drunk and play some games, and its not too pricey. Post a thread for it if anybody sets it up!

How about those Hawks? I wonder if they could beat Boston on Sunday...that would be awesome.

It really is unbelievable! Wish they would have played that hard during the regular season, but perhaps it takes the playoffs to find out how to put forth that kind of effort.
It will be a tall order to duplicate at Boston Garden, but as long as Johnson stays on the court, they'll have a shot.
Tip to Woodson -- If Joe gets 2 fouls early - LEAVE HIM IN!

Hells yeah! I live down the street from the arena and I went to game 4 on monday. Freaking Awesome. Only bad thing is if we win this series there's no way they wont sign back Woodson. I want us to sign Avery Johnson so bad!
Check me out on the cover of the AJC yesterday...

I guess this is a bad time to tell everyone that I grew up in L.A. and that I've been a HUGE Lakers fan since the '80s......:oops:
For those in the Gwinnett area, the Walmart on L'ville-Suwanee and Satellite is having a two day $10 clearance on their $19.82 games for various systems. They have ps2, xbox, 360, gamecube, wii, psp, ds, and gba advance games. Games were on three carts next to the electronics register - signs said sale ends tomorrow (5/4.)
I didn't have time to go through the whole lot, but I picked up Raiden III for the PS2 while my son picked up Fantastic 4: Silver Surfer/360 and my daughter picked up some Havest Moon (Magical Melody?) for the GC. Saw a few Rogue Galaxy and some other rpg's for the ps2. Most of the wii games were garbage - lotz of the petz variety.

I'm all set up with Battle and Brew. I dropped by this weekend and it's definitely small but it fits the bill. For the time being, I've rented out the 2 main big screen TVs with the couches for the whole night. If we get enough people, I'll get another TV that has the Wii and PS2. The only "concern" is that the party is on Friday night and that is apparently "Free Rock Band" night, so the guys say it can become standing room only and get quite loud. I figure at least we have the couches reserved and my brother will love playing RB in front a big crowd. Not that we need that much sound to play Smash Bros, Mario Kart, or Halo.

I picked up two orange boxes for $14.xx at my local norcross target. I'm going back tomorrow to try and get some extras for CAGs before the hoarders take everything.

Checked out the N. Druid Hills Target this morning. There were definitely less Lairs and no Orange Boxes, but nothing seems to have dropped from last week. NBA 07 was still $15 and hasn't dropped to $7.
There is also one Genji for $15. 360 had some NCAA 07 and non-gold MUAs for $15. I don't think the two Lairs they had left will last another week.
I plan to check out Edgewood at lunch.

I got the only 4000 point card there. It has the new drops like The Club and Kane & Lynch and some guides are 11.xx.
I stopped by the Duluth Target and saw two Orange Box PS3 for $14.98. Clerk wouldn't take the $5 off coupon so I bought just one, leaving one in the case. Didn't see anything else of note.

How much for the Club? And I'm assuming PS3 only?

I saw the PS3 Club for, I believe, $28, at Edgewood. Also at Edgewood there were 3 Lairs, now at $25 down from $29. They had some GRAW (1) for 360 for $7.48. Also, several copies of PGR4 for $15. That's the lowest I've seen that.

Didn't see anything else of note.Sorry for you that you didn't get two, but if you're talking about the Steve Reynolds target, then I'm glad for me cause I found the last one there;) They had a handful of each of the following @ 75% off (10-15): NCAA Football, NCAA Basketball, and NBA 08 all for PS3. Also had Madden 07 for PS3, Halo 1 for 14, and several black and a few platinum Gamecube consoles for 70.
How much for the Club? And I'm assuming PS3 only?Yeah, only the PS3 Kane & Lynch and The Club are clearanced right now. The Club was 50% off at 29.98 and K&L was 30% at 27.98

Which one is edgewood again? EDIT: NVM, I see it's the one in L5P.

W. Marietta, only one I checked out, 1 FF12 Reverent Wings - 19.98, 10-12 Kane & Lynch (PS3) 19.98, a couple of The Club (PS3) 29.98, Guitar Hero 3 PC 34.98 in the PC section, 59.98 on the endcap.

Dang, would love it for 360 for that price.

That was the store, glad someone on here got the other copy :D. First time I was turned down using that coupon. Saw the other stuff on the endcap but nothing really caught my eye - was hoping that they would have one of the 4000 pt cards knocked down.

Stopped by the Lenox Target while running errands in the area on my break. Of course, I mosied, er moseyed, um walked by electronics and they had the new clearance games out on the endcap in the corner. Nothing too exciting. The PS3 games were still tagged high, however, when I checked the PS3 games on the scanner the older set were 75% off. At least NBA 08 was and there were a couple left as well as some NBA 07s which were in the earlier round of drops so I presume it's 75%. I didn't see any other PS3 games from that set of drops like Lair, which sadly the several copies that were there last week were gone. They had THPG and the Simpsons which were marked 30% off, but were 50% off. No Orange Box.

Some quick Target updates...
Someone cleaned out my local Norcross Target. I knew I should've picked up a copy of NBA 08 before the rush but oh well. A lesson learned I suppose.
I went by the lenox target and saw nothing. They did have several Virtua Tennis 3s if anyone is interested in those.
Also, Brandsmart is selling Super Smash Bros for 38.xx if anyone hasn't picked it up yet.

Edgewood BB has Battalion Wars 2 at 50% off in the BOGO box up by the registers. That makes it $25, or potentially free if you see something else in that box that you want. Like maybe Juiced 2 for the 360...but why?

The Sidney Marcus Target had not dropped any PS3 prices when I stopped by around 3 today. I'm not sure when they update on Mondays, but it probably had already happened since there were some jewel case PC games newly marked as clearance.

No change on games already on clearance at the N Druid Hills location either. They used to have a TON of PC games on an endcap that were 50% off. 95% are gone including the King's Quest Collection and NWN2 (was 30% off) and the add on. Oh well.
Mr. Wiggly
05-13-2008, 02:51 PM
Edgewood Target update -- No more Lairs, or much of anything really neat. There is one NWN 2 on an endcap down near the autoparts for $15.
There were 3 NBA 08's, but they were marked at $25. That's about it.

I was up at Buckhead Target 10 minutes ago. I saw a copy of :ps2: Manhunt 2 for $18 and they wouldn't sell it to me. What gives? How annoying is that?
I did pick up two copies of :ps2:DMC3:SE for $10 each. I'm not sure if there were more. I also picked up another :gc:Zelda:TE. There were at least a dozen of those for 50% off ($24.98)

Why wouldn't they sell it to you? I'm sure they gave some kind of reason, lame or otherwise.
Just curious as the Manhunt series is on my "games to grab with a decent price" list for summer play.

Huh, that is strange. To make yourself feel better, just assume it was defective or something. ;)
