This was originally posted at IGN boards. That's were I learned about this site, starting with the Kay Bee Toys sale. I guess it's time to return the favor.

Ultimate Electronics advertised recently they were closing out Playstation games at 20% off. As of Thursday all Playstaion 2 and PSone games are 50% off

There might not be one in your area but if there is go check it out. This includes all major Holiday releases if there are any left.

*Heads to Ultimate*

Deal confirmed at Arl, Tx store.

They still have:

Jak II $19.99
FFX-2 $24.99
Prince of Persia $24.99
Ratchet and Clank 2 $19.99
Max payne 2 $24.99
Ratchet and Clank $9.99
Max Payne $9.99
Ico $14.99

No SSX 3, TH V, Or Lord of the Rings.

I even found a copy of Mister Mosquito which I couldn't find at CC.

If you've got one in your area hit em hard and fast because this may be in tommorrow's ad, and then they will be even further picked over.

Good luck!

Confirmed!!! I called the closes UE and they said that yes, they are closing out on their games. I asked, "Really, every game?" and she said, Yup.

Happy shopping....

anybody know if this applies to online purchases? I browsed the website, but saw no mention of any closeout specials.

Ultimate Electronics, Soundtrack, and Audio King are all the same company.

Don't get entirely excited though. I used to work there and the selection is minimal, and prices take forever to drop.

However, don't get your hopes up too much. Unless you are the buying new holiday releases like Max Payne 2, Budokai 2, ESPN 2004 sports games, etc., you are still just getting a deal no better than Circuit City. They were still selling FFX at half of $49.99 (which is rediculous...no wonder they are closing down the vgame program). However, I spotted a non-GH FFX and just had to get it for my future bro-in-laws so as a smartypants, I told them to call CC because it's 14.99 this week but the guy eventually told me that they can only match it, they can't match the competition, then mark down 1/2.

Did I mention...

GTA Double Pack 39.99 ---> 19.00

Just in case anyone does live in Twin Cities, Minnesota or surrounding suburbs, there are still:

2 shinobi
10+ ESPN sports games
1 FFX-2
1 Soul Cal 2
8+ GTA DP
3 Max Payne 2
1 Arc the Lad
2 Budokai 2
2 Wild Arms 3 (might wanna price match with CC 9.96)

@ woodbury accesories are not marked down for some odd reason

Oh man, too bad. I was hoping they'd have Haven and Gungrave for half off. Who would want new releases for 50% off? </sarcasm>

Doesn't make a difference to me, though, as there is no Ultimate Electronics in my state.
