    DS Lite?

    bestbuy.com has a $20 gift card if you buy a ds lite and either brain age or big brain academy. Since those games are only $20, it's basically bundled with a free game. This appears to be only for today and possibly Monday...

    Northern VA CompUSA close out coverage *Stores NOW CLOSED*

    I was in the Tyson's store on Wednesday and they had a sign for 12 days left, so it should be 10 days left by now. It was 30-50% off. Still a pretty decent amount of 360 and ps2 games. Still had 360 12 month live, 360 controllers. Fixtures were being sold and they had tons of copies of Vista at...

    Washington D.C. Metro area.

    Tysons Best Buy is out of GGCs. They've been consistently stocked with them for a long time up until about a week ago. Looks like they might be starting to phase them out with the coupon expiring in only a few months.

    Help me pick an MP3 player! NO IPODS!!

    I got nothing really to add to this discussion since I'm happy with my 8gb nano, but I just thought it had to be pointed out that this thread was bumped six months later starting with a post to tell the original poster to wait.

    Northern VA CompUSA close out coverage *Stores NOW CLOSED*

    I probably can't go by that often, but if I happen to stop by, I'll report what I see.

    Northern VA CompUSA close out coverage *Stores NOW CLOSED*

    I stopped for only a couple minutes at the Tysons CompUSA. The discounts look to be the same percentages as were listed for the Fairfax store. I saw a couple core 360s, but I didn't see any premiums or a DS. Game selection seemed the normal small amount without too much taken so far.

    Did you spot any nunchuks? I could use another and haven't seen them anywhere.

    Electroplankton worth it?

    Electroplankton is in no way a game. It is much better categorized as a music toy. It just happens to be done on a gaming platform. If you are musically inclined, there is probably enough to play around with to make it a worthwhile purchase. The lack of a save feature isn't that big of a deal...

    Opinions from those who have Marvel Ultimate Alliance

    I had fun with the game and it definetly is played better cooperatively. Any fan of Marvel characters should enjoy this game. There is a lot of mindless beat-em-up of enemies, but the many bosses and environments keep things fresh. As someone who played the X-Men Legends games on the gamecube...

    Washington D.C. Metro area.

    I was curious about the Sony Style store in Tyson's too so I stopped by today. The guy said they took no pre-orders and would be selling PS3s, but wouldn't tell me how many they had. Obviously no campers directly outside the store in the mall. I didn't see any tents outside this afternoon, but I...

    Washington D.C. Metro area.

    I was in both the Tysons and Fair Lakes Best Buy's today and no Guitar Hero 2. For some reason the Tysons store has about 20 guitar hero 1 bundles, but no early GH2.

    No 360s in the Tyson's Tower. I was there a week ago and remember a few PS2s and I think a cube.

    Madden vs. NCAA

    The start of football has given me that craving for a football game, so I'm wondering which of the two football games plays a better, more realistic brand of football. I haven't bought a football game in a few years and I'm a fan of both the pro and college game so that's not swaying me either...

    Good DS Game Cart Storage Cases?

    I just picked up one of these at a Spencer's for 3.99. It can hold 12 games fine and snaps shut nicely, almost a little bit too tightly, requiring both hands to open it. The mints are chalky and don't have too much flavor, but are definitely edible.

    Northern Virginia Deals Thread

    A little bit off-topic, but I was just wondering if there are any good import game stores in Northern Virginia or DC. I'm not aware of any and would prefer doing it that way over the online way. Thanks

    Wii: Strange clips on back of Retro Controller

    From the pictures, it doesn't look like the middle finger can be used to reach the Z button. It looks like the Z and R buttons are just laid out horizontally, so for the middle finger to reach the Z button while the index finger is over the R button, the middle finger would have to extend past...

    Wii: Strange clips on back of Retro Controller

    I don't understand even the need for a Z-button on the classic controller. Since the Gamecube controllers can work fine for Gamecube games, the only old games that would need a Z-button would be the N64. Because of the three hand layout of the 64 controller I doubt there was a single game that...

    Sudoku in Brain Age

    As others have previously said, the sudoku is done very well in Brain Age. Even though there are only 100 puzzles and it does not have a puzzle generator, it doesn't matter because it's not like you are going to remember the puzzles at all. I like how it keeps a record of how long it took to...
