Call me naïve, but even after all of these years I'm still not 100% sure why the "Gamestop ban" is such a significant thing. Keep in mind I'm not a big trader and not privy to a lot of the "flip" situations that go down. If it were the "flip" people that were the only ones getting banned, to...

Thanks! Been waiting for Sairento to get cheap, and now was the time! I grabbed Golem and Angry Birds as well so ended up getting free shipping. My daughter will want to play Angry Birds, the only game I'm a little iffy on is Golem, reviews I read stated the control scheme was difficult to...

Oh, yeah, what I meant was that it was sold out from Gamefly, because of the fact that it was only $10 from them.

I've pondered this dilemma a few times. When Blu-Ray found it's groove and we started getting true 1080P capability, the jump in video quality felt significant enough that I wanted to upgrade most of my collection. With 4K I haven't felt the same, however as newer movies release that I don't...

Thank you so much! There was literally only one new copy left in my entire town and I just reserved it to pick up on the way home from work.

I played the NES version a couple months ago and found that I still enjoy it, though I don't know how long the nostalgia would actually last. It's certainly inferior to the more modern style beaters like Double Dragon or Final Fight, but Im not pursuing the Final Fight cab because I already own...

I think it's sold out now, and I'm pretty sure it's an awful game, but I got a copy of the Dollhouse game by Soedesco off Gamefly for $10 yesterday. I've only seen it available to buy online, none of my Gamestops ordered copies so I'm not sure how large the print run was.  Kind of the same...

The Space Invaders cabs are now $154.00 in my area. But as much as I do like Space Invaders, I've only got space for 1-2 more of these and I don't want to blow it on a cabinet that only includes 1 game. The upcoming Burgertime cabinet is what I really want, and the fact that it has Bad Dudes on...

None of the Walmarts in my city have clearanced any of the cabs except for Asteroids/Centipede, but then if you check the rural Walmarts, damn near every one of them is clearancing the cabs. I drove about an hour into the boonies to score a Pac-Man cab for $150, and talked to the manager about...

Yes, I got mine 4 or 5 days ago. I had it lumped in with the Messenger and got them both together.

I've noticed some Amazon vendors have some pretty decent physical disc deals on alot of the PAL-only import games that we didn't get in the US. But unless you order multiple games at once the shipping kills the deal. Downward Spiral is only ten bucks from Amazon UK but shipping is 6 bucks...

If you know how to "work" their trade in promos the right way you could make some serious bank. On any given day, sure, it's generally not in your best interests to do business with them. But when the right promotions and deals hit, It can beat shopping at Amazon, Best Buy, or anyone else.

Have there been any updates or a release date on the previously announced physical edition of the Honor and Duty 2 pack? A few months ago the devs definitely said it would get a physical and if I remember correctly mentioned that the UK would get it first, but I haven't heard a thing about...

That thing seems to sell out repeatedly. Probably not much incentive to discount it. Also I can't imagine the profit margin is very wide. I've seen the bundle with Firewall or Farpoint get down to like $50 a couple times. But not often.

That's one of those times where you are relieved it only happened in VR. I remember a guy doing that when I was in the Army. He didn't shoot himself in the foot, but he still had a really bad day.
