RISK Onyx Edition $15 at Barnes n Nobles YMMV

Not really a video game, but if you like board games, you probably love RISK.

This is the Onyx edition, exclusive to Barnes n Nobles, and one of the finest I've seen.

MSRP is usually $59.99, but I found one in the 75% off bargain bin at my local Barnes n Nobles in Orlando, FL (Colonial Drive).

Last week it was 50% off and they still had a few, but yesterday it was 75% off ($15), and they had only one left, so I decided to pick it up.

Prices and location may vary, but it's worth checking it out, IMO.

This is what it looks like($57.50 at Amazon):

Yeah, that's not actually a video game deal, but let's be practical : What's the chance of us ever finding a deal on a video game version of Risk?

Thanks for the heads-up. You can use the forum below for non-video game deals next time though:

As an aside, yeah, I can't remember the last time there was a video game Risk released.

Might I add a GOOD video game version of risk? Risk 2 wasn't that good but it's online doesn't work and was barely if at all supported. I mean the only time it's good is with local multiplayer. In which case, people will see your RISK cards and know exactly what to expect. I'd go for this if me and my friends had time to get together for a game of risk since it was always fun 4-5 years ago. We seriously should of found at least a 4th player.

Thanks Neo, I wasn't sure where to post this. I'll remember next time.

I think during the holidays there was a sale on the iOS version of Risk?

I like the fact the board looks very nicely made rather then the cheap fold-able cardboard of the ones made years ago.

I will have to check and see if mine has it for that price.

I picked up Stratego Onyx Edition several days ago for $12.50 at B&N. Didn't see Risk though

I always thought that Risk: Global Domination for PS2 was underrated. I played that with friends all the time back in high school and it was a blast. It had a surprising amount of personality, from the Napoleonic-era imperialistic visuals and music to the surprisingly humorous and well-voiced CPU characters like Bolivar, Washington, Katherine the Great, Pontiac, Shaka Zulu, etc. The online is dead, but if you're lucky and can still find people to play Risk with as an adult, I recommend trying it out.

The Onyx Edition is pretty goddamn sweet, but mine has a misprint that doesn't show the link between Greenland and Iceland. Just a heads up.

I can confirm. Huge thanks to xenophreak, especially for posting in the wrong forum.



The Onyx version of Stratego was also 75% off. The location on the receipt had two of each left.
