Someone posted somewhere that last year during those sales, BB had a warehouse closing down. Could be the reason why nothing spectacular this year.

Boy I miss last years Dec. Best Buy sale.
I picked up like 15 games from $4.99-7.99.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior just recently went Platinum / Greatest Hits, so you may get the new packaging if it matters to anyone out there.

So my order for the sonic generations collection was canceled. Pretty lame. Why offer something you don't have enough stock of?

That sucks. I've never had that happen with Best Buy. It usually takes 2 weeks for these sale games, but I got De Blob 2 in 2 days. I think they should at least provide a credit or something when things like this happen.

I wasn't sure where to put this, so I'll just leave it here for anyone interested.

Sniper Elite V2 (used) is only $12.99 at Best Buy. Store pickup is the only option available.

Last year was amazing from BB, but I didn't actually expect them to do it again. I mean I got the limited edition of Bioshock 2 last year for $4.99, To this day that is the single greatest deal I've ever gotten on a game. Art book, posters, soundtrack, vinyl disc. Just crazy.

I was crossing my fingers BB would roll out some games for $10 that I recently missed out on when Microsoft did their big sale (NG3, ME3, Ghost Recon, Fallout NV, Witcher 2, etc.)

Maybe they will wait till after Christmas to really roll out the deals.

Geez that game sold enough to warrant GH/Platinum Hits...?

I received Sonic Sega Collection today. Fast shipping and in great condition I must say. I'm starting to love Best buy.

also, best buy is doing b2g1free on used games this week so this could be a potentially sweet deal for someone that can find two other games he wants. too bad the ps3 version is so expensive or i'd be all over this.

No, go away amazon fanboy

I was at Best Buy to get some gift cards. Saw that Sniper is regularly $19.99. $7 discount is not enough of a deal for me. Will wait for $5 price point. Lol.

52% on gamerankings is "great?"

The hell does that even mean? So he shouldn't trust a large consensus and should just trust some random guy on a game deals forums? If he doesn't want to buy it then who cares.

Good and bad games hit $5 all the time these days, either used or the fluke coupon/sale.

People that buy games for reviews imo are retarded and thats the reason why they are so picky with videogames and missing out. (Obviously i dont mean the really crappy games that deserves those crappy scores)

If people didn't generally listen to reviews, they'd end up wasting tons of money on games that actually are shit, and THAT's retarded. Reviews are a very good guide, as are youtube walkthroughs and gameplay videos. If you read a review and don't agree with why it received a bad score, then there's reason to try it anyway.

I didn't listen to the Zombi U reviews (some of them) and I love the game, but usually the average review score is a pretty good indication of what you're going to get. Usually.
