For the Eastern-kansas folks wanting to get in the Bioshock on PS3 for $20 at Bestbuy (On sale for $30 plus this $10 manufacturer's coupon). The Lawrence store accepted the coupon with a manager's override and still had 14 units in stock on the shelf as of Sunday afternoon.

NFM has the 1600 point Microsoft cards for 14.99 this week. I price matched at Best Buy with no problems.

For the KC Folks.

Not sure if this has been posted but I was looking at Craigslist and saw this.

Play N Trade Video Games is having GRAND OPENING 13th, 14th and 15th so come on in and celebrate with us.
13163 state line next to Planet Sub

Hah. This sucks. I knew I should have pre-ordered the CE version of Street Fighter IV, now I can't even find the damn thing anywhere. Trooloo fruity loops!

Edit: Never mind. I went to BB whom I called earlier and told me that they didn't have the CE in stock but what do you know when I got there, there were two CE copies right on the shelf. Bah. That's the last time I'm going to believe an employee over the phone.

I have been bouncing around the KC metropolitan area trying to take advantage of the BB $20 off coupon for select PC titles.

In particular, I was interested in the Orange Box and Crysis. At this point, I believe the Olathe BB is the only location in the area that still has either in stock (1 of each was on the shelf when I left).

The other locations I checked have them "on order", but there's no guarantee that they will be in before the coupon expires.

The Sears Grand on 87th St. and 435 is going out of business (and it hasn't been a Sears Grand converted from K-mart for that long, either). Electronics are 10% while games are at 20%. They had a pretty decent selection of games, too. One copy of Madworld for Wii if anyone is interested. Also had one Xbox Elite for $320. If you pick that up please post so others will know it is spoken for, thanks.

Thanks for the heads up. This thread has been quiet for way too long..

That sucks. Yet another empty retail space.

Hey, I don't know if any of you guys are looking for one. But the Oak Park Toys R Us on 95th and Quivira had 4 Hori EX2 Arcade Sticks on the shelf last night. Priced at their standard retail of 59.99.
I know good arcade sticks are a hot commodity right now, and the EX2 is going between 75-100 on Ebay.

Good stick, easily modible if you want to put in better parts.

Thanks, the Tick. I was looking for an Hori EX2 Arcade Stick.

Just got back from Nebraska Furniture Mart today (went to the Legends' Gamestop Gamer's Day Sale) and saw a few items on sale:

These items were on sale through 04/05

Bioshock (PS3) - $24.99
Mirror's Edge (360) - $24.99 (PS3 version was $29.99)

Again, both Bioshock and Mirror's Edge go off of their "Manager's Special" sale today.

On sale through 04/11:

Puzzle Quest: Galactrix (DS) - $19.99
Madworld (Wii) - $38.99
Seinfeld DVD Season Sets - $12.48 each season
Left For Dead (360) - $39.99 (I think)


Too Human was on closeout for $14.98 as well.

There were a couple of other things but I don't remember them. I lucked out today, been eying the last copy of The World Ends With You which was on closeout for $34.99 but the pricetag never dropped. Finally checked the price in the computer and it was down to $9.89. Woo Hoo!

Heads up if anyone wants to check it out, but based on the discussion in the main deals forum Gamestop has been getting in some of the MadCatz SFIV tournament sticks.

Their website shows Lawrence has one in stock for the 360: Link

Just thought I'd pass on the info, although you might be chasing a ghost.

The TRU near Oak Park Mall has six or seven copies of Gun for $5. Picked up a copy for myself. Most reviews seem to say it's worth a rental, and at that price it's cheaper to just buy it.

Saw Patapon 2 at a target for $17. Don't remember which one, though.

If anyone is looking for Animal Crossing for the Wii bundled with Wii speak check out the Best Buy near Metro North Mall. They had a couple copies on their 1/2 off game rack. Didn't see much else worth noting this weekend although I haven't had much time to look since we've been cooped up painting most of the weekend.

Not sure if it's really a deal, but Blockbuster on 135th and Quivira has God Of War 2 for 2.99. It doesn't come with the box and is also probably missing the bonus disc though.

The Bestbuy in Manhattan has some games for 50% off, some I seen were Tales Of Vesperia(360), Endwar bundle(PS3) and Warhawk bundle(PS3). They also had other games for all three current gen systems and for the PS2. The BB in Lawrence is having a 25% off sale with some CE for each system. Saints Row 2 CE for both systems, seen some RE4 for both and some others.

I was in Lawrence a couple days ago (I feel dirty about this because I'm a 2 time Mizzou graduate) and I found a couple interesting things. There was a game store in a basement just off Mass street across from a book store (I want to say it was called Game Guy, or something like that). The prices were not bad considering it looked to be a local operation. I fully suport local stores that appear to be fair in pricing (i.e., a little more expencive than a chain store is ok with me, a lot more expensive is not). They had a used Halo Wars for $40, might still be there too.

Also, I went into the multi-level antique store on Mass (the one that used to have the toy store in the second story) and I saw quite a few video games out there. Most notably in booth 150, which had several Atari and NES cartriges. A few other booths had video games for various systems, but the prices seemed way off on many of them.

Not sure if this is a good deal or not but since nobody has posted here in a week this is what you guys get

The Walmart in Bonner springs by K7 had a bunch of guitar hero 3 guitar and game bundles for the PS3 and Xbox 360 for $30. They also had a few guitar only boxes. They were in the clearance between the health/beauty and the seasonal/garden center area.

Did everyone move out of Kansas?

I was at the Sams club at 95th street and they had xbox 360 GHWT complete band sets for $85. There were at least two left.
