CAGiversary!

Nobody home here. The trolls and the juvenile drama chased me away.

I thought CAG was a supportive community, but I was wrong, apparently.

You're free to let someone else man the thread now; I understand J7 has a lot of free time on his hands and has been trying to circumvent the thread from me for a few months.

I just don't have the patience for the children anymore.

Cheers.

[quote name='KrayzieKMF']Isn't the birthday club supposedly for children only or is there one for adults?[/QUOTE]

It's meant for kids. I thought they cut it off at 14 or 16.

But it wouldn't surprise me if a CAG used a fake name/bday to get a coupon.

Cuts off at like 10. But I've known co-workers to sign their pets up for the club.

Also, Lair needs to drop from 59.99 to something considerably more reasonable.

When I used to work for TRU, we had "quotas" to fill for b-day club sign-ups. It got so ridiculous everybody started enrolling their pets. Once those ran out, we pulled out a phone book and started picking names at random, with made up addresses.

Thank god they've moved away from pushing Birthday Club signups. Although now the thing to push is the Rewards R Us card or whatever the fuck it's called. Then we have to send the store's signup % to the district office every hour now(up from just at halfway & close). Except our % will look like garbage when the only people who don't have the stupid card are the ones without email addresses, which are required to sign up, but we can't, and it counts against us.

I need to graduate soon, as 2.5 years of this is starting to drive me batty. Probably doesn't help it's spring phase move time.

[quote name='n4styn4t3']That game sucks hard. Wait until you get to the flamethrower boss. Terrible.[/QUOTE]


I already finished it. Loved it. The soundtrack is fantastic
 
So I went to a store near where I am for business and I saw a Bioshock 2 Big Sister & Little Sister figure combo for $19.99 and from what I though these were either all sold during the games release or just bought up by hoarders. Either way it was the last one so I bought it but I'm considering returning it unless it really is rare. It's not the best figures I've seen but they're are not that bad. So if anyone knows, are these rare or is NECA still making this combo? Thanks.
 
[quote name='jester55']Dark sector 5.00[/QUOTE]

For PS3 or 360? If it's for PS3, I may have to bite at that price. I usually hate shooters, but that one seemed a bit unique(like Bioshock)and I was having fun with it when I had it.
 
Its funny there are good prices for some games here but at my TRU almost every game is $50-$70 even old games. I think the manager is stupid.

You should scan the games mentioned here, they would probably ring up cheaper.

The store has no control over prices, it depends on the corporate goons. The funny thing is I do think they completly forget about certain games and never drop in price, like $49.99 Marvel Ultimate Aliance 1 for Wii and $59.99 Folklore on PS3.

I can confirm for the 360.

[quote name='Starving Gamer']109714 Pangya Fantasy Golf PSP $5[/QUOTE]Thank's for this, I picked one up yesterday.

They were sitting on the shelf with all the other standard price games, still marked at full price. I asked the cashier to scan it for me and it rang up for $5, I always love the look on the guys face when it happens.

eInk could make a killing if they could develop little price tags that change when systems update. Anyone who's worked retail knows how much time is spent every week when new sheets of shelf stickers come in.
 
Picked up Dark Sector 360 for $5

saw Afro Samuri and Alone in the Dark for 360 at $9.98 each.

Hope they drop to $5 in a week or 2 cause my store has a ton of them!
 
Picked up a few titles tonight, all of which have been mentioned here already except (I think, maybe I missed it):

:ps2: Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy $5.00 (GH packaging, for those offended by such things)
 
Picked up:

de Blob - $5
Samba de Amigo - $5
Major Minors Majestic March - $5
SNK Classics - $5

That sounds like it would be a very interesting project.
 
One more to add to the list:

:ps2: Mortal Kombat: Deception (GH) $5.00

I was avoiding picking up any of the last-gen fighting games, but the chess and puzzle modes in this intrigued me enough that I couldn't pass it up.
 
Picked up few PS2 games for $5 each
King of Fighter XI
NeoGeo Battle Coliseum
Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 1
Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 2

Soul Bubbles (DS)
Panda (DS)
Mushroom Man (DS)
 
[quote name='manthepost']has anyone found mass effect thier ?[/QUOTE]

That is a tough one, it was clearanced out for $5 a long time ago and I don't know if they ever got restocked with the platinum hits version.
 
Found most of the games listed but also found 5-6 diff GBA titles for 3 each. Im going to assume if your TRU has any GBA games left, regardless of title, they will be $3

Still bummed that I never found Final Fantasy 6. It's the only one I don't have.

I checked the store near me yesterday and they didn't have it. I had a tru gift card and would have paid the platinum hits $20 price but I guess they decided not to stock it anymore.
