In the Sonic sequel, Sonic should have a weird, unsettling relationship with a human girl.

You guys keep approaching the One X like it’s a new system that needs a “system seller”. It’s not. It’s just a more powerful X1 for people who are willing to pay for better fidelity or smoother frame rates. No different than PS4 Pro. It’s probably not for people like Wombat and Ship who don’t...

Got Spec Ops for $5.99. Thanks, Cheapy!

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised myself.

Just to update: My local TRU gave me a refund on the Skyrim with the stolen key with very little hassle. Kudos to them.

LOL. I didn't want to disappoint my friend last night after I had promised him Skyrim so I already bought a new Skyrim key off of Greenmangaming and gave it to him. So that won't work either. I'm going to try TRU at lunch but I don't expect success. Like you said, maybe someone else would want...

The problem is that the procedure would assign the key to my account. Well, I already have Skyrim. I needed this key to give to a friend that lives some distance away. I'd need Steam to assign the key as a gift in my inventory. Maybe they could do that if I asked, but it just seems like...

Son of a... I just opened a sealed TRU Skyrim and gave my friend the key. Steam says it's been redeemed already. I start looking and pop the disc out. Fingerprints. Somebody has a shrink-wrap machine. Hope they will take it back at TRU though I know it's against their policy, I looked on Steam...

Did you purchase the Skyrims that they had for trade or leave them?

So far it has been most (but not all) TRU's in the U.S. I would absolutely do a price-check. The Toys R' Us stores around here have those price scanner things every few aisles in the toy section, so take it over there if you don't want to bother a sales associate.

Update on the Anderson, SC store: I went back there at lunch today just because I was curious. The remaining PC game stock had been moved from the endcap to a standalone 4-sided "$19.99 or less!" display near the checkout island. They still had a few games left, notably 1 copy each of MW3 and...

Did you try to check out? They may not have been marked by the staff. Doubt they will match clearance but who knows.

Too bad the discs for both D3 and SC2 come in a cheap cardboard sleeve. I guess Blizzard couldn't afford a proper case.

I drove over to the Greenville, S.C. store. Here's what's left there: There is a basket hanging near one of the far endcaps in the game section that still had: StarCraft 2 RAGE Battlefield 3 Assassins Creed: Revelations Batman: Arkham City Star Wars: The old Republic The Sims 3 Plus Pets Sims3...

Confirmed in Anderson, S.C. I picked up Diablo III, StarCraft II, and COD:MW3 for $9.98 each. Here is what is left on the shelves: Diablo III Sims 3 Pets Sims 3 Plus Pets StarCraft II Lego Universe Batman: Arkham City Assassin's Creed: Revelations COD: MW3 RAGE WoW: Mists of Pandaria (In the...
