Wow. Ni no Kuni and Most Wanted for those prices are steals. I loved both of those games.

Ni no Kuni is thus far my 2nd place GOTY after Last of Us.

EDIT: Got my Kirby collection on friday btw. Arrived earlier than tracking said.

Ni No Kuni for $20? i couldn't pass up that kind of deal.  Still iffy about GOW since the review weren't so good.  Would love to get Project X zone if only if it was a lil cheaper.

 
Already have Ni No Kuni and PxZ. Considering God Of War, even if it isnt good, I want to have the complete series (Since I have all the others)

 
Gow is pretty tempting although I'm not going to be able to play it now, think the price for this will go lower by black friday?

I wouldn't go that far, unless you mean a Black Friday special where people will kill to try and get to it.

That said I platinumed it this week. It was okay..definitely my least favorite gow game.

And...now I might wait on it. Not like I'm gonna have the time to touch it anytime soon, I'm still sitting on 1-3. Just sold PSABR, so its not like I have need of a new copy for the DLC codes

I'll put it this way, if you can wait, do it. You can get it pretty much anytime for 25 or so, so it's not THAT great of a deal if you didn't want it anyway. If you haven't played 1,2, or 3 jump on those because they are classics. 2 in particular holds up possibly the best. Even the PSP titles were better than Ascension.
 
Wow... Ni No Kuni & GOW Ascension look very tempting. The only thing holding me back is my fairly deep (talking 4-6 games) backlog. Will probably be cheaper anyways by the time I got to them.. Good deals!

Thanks, I will wait on it then. I already beat 1 and 2 on PS2, and the PSP Remaster games, so the only ones I havent played yet are 3 and Ascension.

 
If you're looking for Ascension & Ni No Kuni, you can get them both used at best buy for 17.99 a piece & then get a 3rd select game free. If you don't mind buying used, and assuming they are complete in good condition, this is even a better deal!

Be aware that if you happen to be interested in the GOW Ascension MP it does have an online pass.

 
wonder if x zone is the limited edition as listed.. tried ordering one just in case. If its not i'll return it

Got Modern warfare III and black ops... ya i know, i still dont own them =P Im not a big COD fan but these games never drop below 20 bucks so i figured what the hell. I had a $10 coupon that expires in a week anyway.

I also got GOW ascention. But im not sure if i want to actually get it. Its for store pickup, It looked very meh in the previews. Like it was geared for multiplayer or something which i dont care about. Anyone played it? Is it worth a look? I still havent played 3 yet (though i own it)

 
Any thoughts on NFS:MW 360 vs. PS3?

I'm thinking PS3 because it's one of the few (only?) games that explicitly supports the Move Racing Wheel, and I gotta, ya know, justify that purchase...

Criterion are one of the few devs that can get their games to perform equally well on both platforms, you can't go wrong with either.

 
^ thanks.

Surprised nobody's mentioned Rocksmith yet. I think this ($19.99) matches the previous low price (a BB DOTD, I think).

 
If this was the Best Buy of old, I could see Ni No Kuni and God of War Ascension being $10 with coupons, but since the coupons have sucked lately, probably should just buy them now.

Was almost really pissed. Just bought Ni No Kuni for 18 at newegg and I was expecting it to be 10.

I bought a used copy for $14.99 with a $15 reward certificate, and it came complete. Definitely happy about that. Also bought Modern Warfare 3, and Most Wanted for in store pickup. Thanks to whoever mentioned that $10 off coupon. Much appreciated.
 
Thanks for the heads-up on this guys!

Grabbed both Ni No Kuni and Most Wanted.  Had a promotional $10 code, so it came to $26.98 after tax.  That's $13.49 for each game...I'm happy!  :D

 
Heads up just in case anyone is interested:

:ps3: FIFA Soccer 13 $17.99 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/FIFA+Soccer+13+-+PlayStation+3/5560392.p?id=1218660326100&skuId=5560392&st=FIFA%20Soccer%2013&lp=6&cp=1

:ps3: FIFA Soccer 13 Used $15.99 ($14.39 with GCU) http://www.bestbuy.com/site/FIFA-Soccer-13-%26%23151%3B-PRE-OWNED---PlayStation-3/6893393.p?id=1218810956492&skuId=6893393

I'm on the fence regarding buying this as I have not played a soccer game in many years



I'm so upset the 360 version isn't on sale. It never is!
 
Hey, is the God of War good at this price. I'm a huge fan of the series and although this appears to be the weakest of the series, the demo was pretty good. Any opinions on the game?

 
if you have a big backlog dont get NFS cause the new one is out in october and nfs most wanted will be dirt cheap



Good advice. I'll pass.

I played it on both. Didn't see any significant differences so go with whichever. The game does have some awesome leaderboard stuff so if you have any friends that play the game it might be worth going for that one.

 
Only one I'm tempted on is Madden 13.

I just bought NCAA 13 used from BBY last week during their two day sale for $10.

If this was $10/used I'd buy it but I think I'm gonna hold off.

Nice to see they are contiuning this particular sale concept though. Makes their BFiJ sale look even more crappy.

It never is? It was Friday & Saturday. Granted it was buy 1 get 1 free but you could have paired it with Most Wanted which would have made the real price $20. You always could have traded in or sold the other game if you didn't want it, or even got a 2nd copy of Fifa.

I'm talking about individually. And yeah I know it was part of the B1G1, but they were sold out within 50 miles of my house because of that promo.

 
50%. Only good place to flip is at Gamestop and that's today only, you'd get $22.50 at w/o PUR. BB would get you $19.50. That's if you're talking about Fifa 13.



Wanting to trade Gears Judgement
 
Everyone submit these prices to Amazon! I remember when Lego: LOTR was only on sale on 360 and Wii at Target, Amazon price matched the PS3 version as well! Maybe they'll do the same for 360 Fifa.
 
scooped up project x zone for the 3ds. thanks op :) ive been getting my 3ds gaming on lately. quite surprised how fun the games are lol

i think its worth getting. theres a lot of great characters your going to be familiar with over the years like ryu and ken or megaman. there is a grid structure kinda like final fantasy tactics. but the animations in the battle you can tell they spent a lot of time focusing on it. i'd check the trailers to see if you like the game play. the reviews seem mostly positive about the game. ive checked a few sites like destructoid and ign.
