    XBL Deals - 2014 - 3/2015

    I'm debating Mortal Kombat and Injustice. $5 apiece seems like a solid deal. However, I hate how much they charge for the DLC on XBL. To fill out both games to be equivalent to Mortal Kombat Komplete or Injustice Ultimate Edition you have to spend many times the base price. It's ridiculous...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread VII

    I almost bought that white PS3 when it popped up. The actual quality of consoles arguably has very little to do with the so-called "grade" that Amazon Warehouse assigns. One of the "Like New" 360S bundles I ordered is absolute garbage with 3 system crippling problems out of box that a toddler...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread VII

    The "LN" Halo CE Anniversary I received looked perfect on the outside and even included unused codes. But, the disc itself has some chips in it that makes it not want to read correctly in one of my 360s. I'm thinking of keeping it because so far it reads/installs fine on the other 360...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread VII

    If you have a high powered PC and played Crysis 1 (and the equally excellent Warhead), then you'll be entertained but mildly disappointed by the sequel on consoles. Crysis 1 is definitely a better game (despite the absolutely horrible Securom DRM that Crytek decided to use at the time which only...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread VII

    If you absolutely must own the latest off-the-shelf football sim then buying Madden *used* is definitely the way to go. It certainly hasn't been worth purchasing new for several years & the less we reward poor/lazy coding the better. As an aside: a tip to anyone who is open to retro-gaming and...

    My first small contribution...I grabbed one and there was (1) copy left. I hope someone here grabs if they want it! Mass Effect Collector's Edition - $18.99 (LN)...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread VII

    Yep, I definitely pay attention to the item descriptions as well as the grade. If there are 2 "Like News" of any particular product I always pick the one that sounds the least suspicious. And if there's a "very good" that has less writing in the description I might pick it over a "Like New". In...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread VII

    Been mostly lurking here for the past couple weeks and have snagged quite a few good deals. I thought I'd extend a heartfelt thanks to the people who contribute here so that we can go out and spend way too much money on stuff we don't need. On second thought.... :)~ At any rate, my experience...

    Amazon Video Games Gold Box for Tuesday 4/23: GoW: Judgement $34.99, Halo 4 $29.99

    You are WELL within your rights to complain about this trend. And, while your opinion by itself may not change much, collectively gamers CAN and DO influence the industry. For example: the entire used game market thriving as it is, like any other after-market for any other product, is a sign...

    Amazon Video Games Gold Box for Tuesday 4/23: GoW: Judgement $34.99, Halo 4 $29.99

    I've been lurking in here for the past couple weeks and always find the pre-pubescent rantings and rude outbursts by nerds and shut-ins to be pretty par for the course...but I'm always a glass half full guy who expects cooler heads to prevail. So, with that in mind, you could stop acting like...

    *SIGH* Go back and check your very first response to me and then try to deny it wasn't dripping with a "holier-than-thou", "I know more than you do" attitude. This was simply because I DARED to question the order fulfillment process at a store chain that I doubt you have any personal stake in...

    Classic straw man arguments are boring. Try again. Just because I call it like I see it doesn't mean I don't have a right to make FACTUAL observations about GoHastings.com's shortcomings. I love how you failed to acknowledge that I speak highly of their brick-n-mortar stores because, again...

    They are definitely removing items from the promotion...TONS of them...and my guess is they are canceling orders for games they don't want to honor the sale price at while claiming they are OOS.

    Until the cancellation notices roll in. I "got in on" about 2 dozen different games last night too...and this morning just got about 20 cancellation notices. They are definitely removing certain games from the promotion based on game value, even after they have been ordered. You can call it...

    Nice! Looks like you scored! I managed to get a handful of pretty good games as well, but nothing that rare. All of the stuff you listed is currently shown as OOS. I'm guessing they have more of all of these in stock, but they only let a handful of them to be sold at the sale price. If you get...

    all .Hack titles have been showing consistently out of stock all day, so there's no way to test if the code works on them...but I'd guess that's a big fat negative. There's quite a few far less valuable games (Silent Hills, Fatal Frames, etc...) that the code does not work on...so I'd be...

    Yep, I wonder if someone from GoHastings reads this thread. haha It was maybe an hour or less after my last post and the $4.99 code started working on quite a few games. Unfortunately, there are still a LOT of games that I want that it doesn't work on. I managed to grab some good stuff though...

    Completely useless PS2 "sale". But, I digress: when I click on the ad in the email I received from Hastings, the link takes me to GoHastings.com and I see 37 pages of PS2 games with the "All Used PS2 Games feature" in the top right hand corner with a check-mark denoting it has pre-sorted the...
