Yeah, worcester had nothing too. MA is definately getting the shaft

Best Buy has been good to me. Not that I found most of the stuff I wanted, just that some of those $5 have a good resell value at FYE.

I guess that's the price you pay for living in/near large metropolitan areas. Between Saugus, Cambridgeside, and Landmark, all the millions of people with disposable income (or $5.24 in this case) all can get to the punch pretty easily.

I live like 10 minutes walk from Cambridgeside and have yet to buy a game there, because, between all the damn people in the city and greedy employees, there's hardly ever anything worth buying, left.

Ah, gotta love the Bean.

The employees in the Cambridge Galleria Best Buy are ALWAYS snatching up the best deals before anyone else gets a chance. That's why I need to go and befriend some more of those workers (my old buddies left).

Like evilmax, I checked Square One and also Liberty Tree. There is nothing at either one. Not one $5 game. :(



Edit: Has anyone checked Framingham Best Buy @ Shopper's World? I haven't had a chance to get out there (mostly because of MA's lacking in this sale). Thanks!

well i guess us people in MA get screwed over once again :x

Going off the topic of the BB fiasco. the Target in South Bay Plaza has exactly 1 copy of True Crime for XBOX and one for PS2.

All it takes is for one person to buy it and it's a 49% raincheck!!!

You're right about that... I got the last copy of NCAA Football 2004 at the BB in Saugus and took it in to Strawberries for $26 cash I almost had a heart attack when she told me the trade in value.

Damn..the strawberries downtown rejected like 7 of my games yesterday (apparently having more than 1 copy of a game means they are full). I'm trying again today, if that doesn't work then it, I'll go to another FYE store and settle for store credit.

And the best buy in Landmark center has some double pack ps2 games for $5!

Spyro/Pac Man World 2
Crash/Splashdown
Ace Combat 4/Midnight Club

Not the best set of games but you can't beat 2 for $5 and they have like at least 8 sets for each.

Somene let us know if you find something similar in the Dedham, Cambridge, or whatever BB you go to.

I also seen
Ultimate Muscle (GBA, jeez nobody wants this I take it?)
Big Mutha Truckas (XBOX, 1 copy)
Disney Extreme Skate adventure (1 copy on XBOX, 3 on GC)
I-Ninja 1 copy (GC)
Star Wars: Clone wars (GC, about 3 copies)
Star Wars Starfighter (XBOX, 2 copies)
Jimmy Neutron (GBA) 1 Copy
Smash Cars (PS2)


For 9.99
Jurassic Park Operation Genesis (plenty of copies) PS2
Tony Hawk 3 (GC)

They also had some ps1 games for $5 like Tomb Raider 3 and Crash 3, didn't pay much attention. They still have one copy of Putter Golf, which is .99 cents. Some bastard bought like 8 copies of 102 Dalmations on Tuesday when it was .99 cents.

Forgot to add these games and I'm forgetting more.

$9.99
Legend of Legaia (about 4 copies)
Winback (1 copy)
er...some 9.99 bowling game on xbox
Pac Man Fever (GC)
Gamecube Demo Disc (I'm personally waiting a further reduction)
Star Wars/Tetris worlds (XBOX)
Tony Hawk 2X (XBOX)

$15
Timesplitters (GC)
Future Tactics (PS2)
Max Payne (XBOX)


$15 after GGC
Breakdown
Pirates of the Carribean
TMNT (XBOX, GBA)
Onimusha Tacticcs


Oh, and Jet set radio/Sega GT STILL rings up for $100!!!

Maybe I'll take a ride out to Framingham next week, since I haven't heard anything about that store. It'll probably be too late, but I'll report back if I find anything.

Landmark Best Buy is pretty much done with $5 stuff. All they had left was Jet X520 (or something), JImmy Neutron and Ultimate Muscle.

Anyone find a Blockbuster store that is doing the 50% off all games promotion?

Not the one in Malden... They still have signs that say buy 1 get one 50% off. I didn't bother asking.

I called 4 Blockbuster stores in Boston and 1 in Quincy, none of them is doing the 50% off deal.

The Malden BLockbuster is the best store I went to so far though. They had tons of used games for sale last time I went a few months ago.

By now you've probably already been to the BB in Framingham, so I'm probably too late to save you a trip. But I was there early last week, and I didn't see anything.
