We should have a meet-up this Sunday, too:

http://www.gotopless.org/news.php?item.33.1

I am so going to try to get there sunday. Damn. But watch it be cover with 60 year olds.

Wow I just saw a video tour of it and I am impressed. The private gaming rooms are sweet. Right now I'm a maybe, I have to see how Sept. 11th will work out for me. If I do come though, I really want to do a playthrough of the Simpsons game with some of you guys. It's been too long since I've used Bart's skateboard or Marge's vacum.

I got Homer! I'll be looking for some help in Heavy Barrel.

Did any of you guys do the TRU coupon thing? It sounds pretty crazy.

Yes. I got about 25 games (6 of them were free). My 360 library is growing, but I dont have a 360 yet!

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you drop for all those?

I just saw the thread today. I would have gotten in on some cheap games if I knew about it when it started.

Not bad. You got some good games there.

Wow just heard this mentioned in a TRU thread, and I've been meaning to check this place out anyway. This gives me a great reason to go. Unless something important comes up I'm unaware of, count me in.

Nice. Perhaps the OP could change the title of the thread to include the date for the meet-up? Thanks!

Oh, and I'll be bringing a couple extra DJ Hero bundles (clearance at TRU today and tomorrow), if you dudes aren't able to get one for yourselves.

Hmm, I was at TRU on Monday, but they didn't have the 'new' Halo: Reach cards for this week! I'm wondering how in the world did you get all those games so cheap?...

For the 1st couple of days, the coupon took off $10 every 360 game including one under $10. Then on Friday, there was (or still is) a 30% off all clearance games and you could use the coupon (in some TRU stores). So there.

They had 30% off all 360 games ending in "8 or 0". The first Halo card took $10 off each game. (This was the week 1 card).

Story from when I picked up the games:

The employee told me "You are lucky to beat the other guy to the store"

"What other guy?"

"There is a guy who comes here every week and he buys a ton of stuff. He told me he resells video games for a living"

"The Play n Trade guy?"

"No. He comes in here too (and he buys a lot), but the other guy told me he 'sells video games for his job'. He finds the deals on a game website."

"Did he say what site?...Was it slickdeals?"

"No it was cheap gamer or something like that".

Should have told the worker that the "other guy" is a convicted sheep er, and to not sell games to him.

Would any of you happen to have an extra official Super Nintendo controller, possibly from a yard sale or whatever? I can't seem to find one anywhere and I really need one. Anyone interested in selling me one at the meet up?

Anyone been to the Tiger Direct store on Elston & Fullerton, its where the old Circuit City use to be? Any game stuff?

I know I have a couple of SNES, but I think I am actually short 1 official controller. I have a 3rd party controller, but I haven't tested it yet.

I will try to go through my systems this weekend.

My guides have been getting the majority of my attention, since I finally have them all in one place! If you guys have any you are looking for I can check my shelves!

I'm not big into collecting guides, but I believe I have that Manhunt one you were looking for. Any chance you'd be able to post what you're willing to put up for trade? In related news, I wish I coulda found Rock Band 2 or LEGO Rock Band during the 360 coupon sale last week@TRU. No Week 2 Halo card from the Western Ave. TRU on Monday, either (though I already own all the relevant games).
