Wow it seems like every store got cleaned out pretty quick. Was hoping to get at least A points card or subscription but no such luck. Will have to go in tomorrow and see if there are any games left. Anybody think they'll get restocked at all? I know it's a clearance sale, but it makes sense...

So I should just go in and ask for a list I guess? I see someone posted all the 75% off games, nobody would happen to know all the 50% off ones would they...heh. Hopefully at least ONE employee at the store will know what's what. Edit: Are the yellow stickers marked as the sale price or do they...

So are the games marked or do they just scan up? I've called all the stores in my area and none of them seem to have any idea what's going on with regards to a sale.

Sorry, I'll fix it. "Yeah...every reviewer who loved the game was a fanboy." :roll: I think you're right in that we don't have the numbers to fully analyze. But think about it...how many games NEED to sell at full price to make a profit? Probably not many. Publishers put games out at $69.99...

Yeah...every reviewer who loved the game was paid off. :roll: First of all, Okami was awesome. Second, the developer did not just fold. Clover merged with other guys and became Platinum Games. Okami's sales didn't even really have that much to do with it. Plus, Okami is getting a sequel, so...

I think Scribblenauts will do very well, it's got a lot of marketing money behind it and support from all major retailers and websites. Plus it's directed at all ages and launches on the system with the largest install base and at a good price point. Still, even if against all odds it does bomb...

The stores in Kelowna BC don't do trades and still haven't had a 2 for 40 in ages.

Not sure if it's over yet, but EB already had that deal. It was trade 4 and $199.99 for 80GB PS3. (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=232646).

What happens if you trade some high value games to get the extra credit and then just cancel your pre-order when the game releases to get that credit put toward something else?

So, is it just PS2 stuff then?

None of the Kelowna stores do trade-ins and none of them seemed to have any idea what I was talking about when I asked if there was a 2 for 40 promo going on.

Why don't you just buy the used one then?

Even at 560 it's a steal in my opinion. Can get frustrating (what games don't?) but is seriously addicting. Bought it at full price when first released and don't regret it.

Not sure if it makes a difference being EB as opposed to GS, but our store and all the surrounding stores do have different trade values for with/without books and case. I don't know if it works on a percentage, but for example most PS2 games get about $2 in trade if they're complete and only...

Yeah I noticed that as well that used games (like NHL 09) that were $24.99 a week ago are $49.99 now.
