There might have been a Starcraft there also, but I couldn't tell b/c the guy only picked up a few of the games from behind the counter when I said no to the first ones and said I was looking for Diablo 3. I was looking from in front of the counter so I couldn't see each spine, but definately no AC, Skyrim, or MW 3 and just the 1 BF 3.

Anyone go to Sunset Hills? I can report on Friday night if needed since it's on my way to play Magic.

Stopped by Sunset hills. Out of SC2, D3 and Skyrim. They had a few (3) copies of Arkham City and maybe one copy of AC:R. They also had some Sims 3 expansions.

I don't know if the register will let you buy it, but South County Walmart (Telegraph Rd.) had both console versions of Dishonored in the case w/ placeholder stickers already in place. This was at midnight.

Don't know if someone tried it, but Dishonored is no longer in the case and the sticker is gone also.

FYI starting tomorrow STL County law states you must be 18 and have a valid state-issued ID (license/state ID card, passport, military ID, etc.) to trade games in, even if for store credit. This is a change as in the past you only needed that for cash.

BB grabs ID when you do trade-ins, as does Target, so I guess this only affects Gamestop for the most part.

GS just never took ID for credit trade-ins outside of the city b/c they didn't have to. BB/Target don't care to have seperate standards for different cities/counties so they just make that part of the default process nationwide. Just wanted to give a heads up that trades may take longer to process at busy stores like Fenton.

Apparently we're getting a temporary Microsoft Store at the Galleria for Christmas. It opens on Friday.

MSU - that is pretty awesome.

Shame it'll be a temporary one. Would be nice to have a permanent MS store in the same two locations as the Apple stores, The Galleria and West County Mall.

That's cool. Are there any permanent MS stores around here?

Not yet.

Plenty of places in both the Galleria and West County Mall that they could put up roots. Since that's where the Apple stores are also at, it makes a logical sense to me about where they'd go.

I just wish we'd get a Fry's already. MicroCenter is a help, though a Frys blows it out of the water.

KC I believe.

So I walked into Target today and they had wii u pre order cards up. I pre ordered a Wii U for some reason. The black version with more memory for 5 bucks. Guy said the pre orders just started at Target on Tuesday and if I pre order I should get one because they only put as many cards out as they are supposed to get in the store. But if you want one and didnt pre order check a Target, I did it across from work in florissant and they had about 10 white ones left and 3 black system pre orders left

Let the clearance watch for AC 3 LE begin! Fenton Target has 2 copies on 360, 1 on PS3.

Which WM will be less crazy on Thursday night, South County or Fenton?

No idea, MSU. I'll be braving the crowds at St. Peters Walmart, hoping to pick up WWE 13, Forza Horizon, and Brave Blu-Ray.

Brave Blu-Ray is already $15 at Target this week. Is it cheaper at WM on BF?

Well someone is going with me now so I have to go to Fenton. After the fiasco with the Madden NFL 12 tournament there last year (which I talked about on Checkmate Arcade) I hate going to that store for anything like this where it could be a nightmare if not run properly.

Brave is $8.96 at WM on BF. The DVD/BR BF deals are here: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/...d.php?t=331390

Also according to Huffer the STL Target print ads show 1600 MS Points for $10 and not the 3-Month Live cards. Here's hoping I can PM at WM (just want 2-3 cards to cover Rock Band Blitz this week, Dragonborn DLC for Skyrim in 2 weeks, then a third card to cover anything else that would be discounted before Christmas.)

Vintage Stock will be doing buy 2 get 1 free on all pre-owned items for Black Friday.
