Clearly, there is still work to be done, but I figured that CAGs might as well make use of it since it is functional.

Its currently located at www.cheapassgamer.com/videogames.html

It is tracking overnight price changes from the following retailers:

Best Buy
Buy.com
Circuit City
Computers4Sure
CompUSA
EBgames (new and used)
Gamestop (new and used)
Gamefly (used games only)
J&R
Kbtoys
Kmart
Overstock

The feed is updated daily, early in the morning.
Currently, it is showing price drops first (indicated by the green arrow), new products added to the datafeed second, and price increases last (indicated by the red arrow).

There will be additional features and improvements in the near future.

Enjoy!

Good stuff! That name is kinda hard to remember, though!

Yeah, I'm open to suggestions for a name for this feature.

CheapyD - you RULE. That is an amazing idea and if it is updated daily it will be quite useful. I already spend more time here than actually playing video games...

That rocks, Cheapy. I just wanted to point out to everyone that the prices listed for used games at EBGames.com are pre-code, so if one hasn't used up the AFF25 yet, they will be even cheaper.

I was actually gonna suggest this, but I figured it would be a ton of work and forgot about it. Looks neat.

Damn, cheapyD. Nice job. Thanks for all the extra work put into the site.

Very awesome Cheapy, I feel so professional now. It's like checking the stocks in the morning. This site gets better by the day, where's my CAG tshirt!?

Question, would it be possible to make a Pre-Played filter?

Wow, this is awesome CheapyD. Good job!

Good stuff.

Thanks thats awesome!

Great stuff. Now if I you could just set something up to automatically buy games for us so we wouldn't miss out on deals! I keed. I keed.

Yes, that is planned.

I see the price drops and retailers, but I don't see the names of the games that dropped in price. Will those be there in the future?

Great job on the great feature, CheapyD. I'll probably be checking it a lot.

You are probably using some kind of ad blocker which is preventing the links from appearing on your PC.

You probably don't see the "Cheap ass links" and most of the photos on the front page too, right?

Excellent job! This site gets better everyday! Couple of suggestions for improvements:
1) Being able to sort by name, price drop, or sale price.
2) Maybe the ability to put some of the games that you really want to buy on a "hotlist" so that only those games show up.
3) Ability to sort by PC Games, GC, PS2, Xbox, etc.
4) Does the list include coupon codes/rebates, etc?
5) Can it show if it is sold out or not?
I understand that some of these suggestions may be out of your control, but they're just suggestions. Keep up the good work!

Makes my daily search a little less

This is by far the coolest thing on the planet. CheapyD, you are the man :-)

Sweet stuff you got there Cheapy.

Some name suggestions:

Cheapdex
Cheapster
Gamers Buddy


dunno what else...
