Got Bulletstorm and Force Unleashed 2 in Red Lion, PA, but ran into some resistance at the East York, PA store. The clerk insisted that the sale was buy 1 for $14.99 or less and get 1 (priced at $14.99 or less) free. When I told him I just bought an over $14.99 and got a $14.99 or under free in...

I read Metafilter every day, and found this thread about the guy who runs a site called Marissa's Bunny who started using contests as a fundraiser to help handicapped or sick children get iPads. According to the bloggers within that community, he hasn't delivered the promised iPads...

Your best/cheapest bet would probably be the limited Rock Band Beatles bundle if you can still find it. Toys R Us was clearing them out at $50 or so last time I checked. If you don't mind used, there are a lot of people getting rid of instruments on Craigslist now because Gamestop won't take them.

Thanks for letting us know, OP. I just got a key and I'm downloading it now. By the looks of the download speed, I might be able to play by the time the final game is released. :)

My local Hollywood Video is closing on Sunday. I figured I'd hit them up tomorrow, but decided on a whim to go there on my lunch break this afternoon. They had Blu-rays marked to $3.99, DVDs for $1.99 (or 10 for $15) and video games were 70% off. I was shocked when I saw they had Heavy Rain...

This isn't the special edition with the cool Beatles instruments. It's the special value edition with the Rock Band 1 instruments.

For those that are asking what Five Below is, it's a dollar/bargain closeout store that is marketed towards young people. It's a pretty cool store because they have lots and lots of $5 DVDs and computer games, an awesome candy aisle, and some good deals on toys and action figures if you're...

The first store I went to had closed two months ago, sadly. I decided to go to another one and got this: 360 Lego Star Wars Complete Saga Prototype Left 4 Dead Halo 3 PS3 Saints Row 2 Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Far Cry 2 Prince of Persia None had original cases, though, but for $5, I can't...

Sale is on, FYI. They hadn't even posted the sale yet, so I got first pick.

Just a quick update for cheapies out there... just got back from CC and got GTAIV, so I got a $10 gift card to use on a wireless controller. While they have all of theirs on sale for $39.99, Best Buy has the Windows one with the wireless receiver for $39.99, too. CC pricematched BB's price plus...

I'll keep my eye out, but it'd have to be better than $29.99 for me to jump, because I'm buying GTAIV at Circuit City today, and they'll give a $10 gift card with purchase, so I'm using it on a wireless controller there that's already on sale ($39.99 - $10). I like the blue a lot.

Wow, if I hadn't bought an Arcade unit a month ago so I could get HDMI, I would have been all over that Elite without HDD for $219.95 deal on your site.

I'm still on my first 360 purchased in early 2006. I do occasionally have a problem getting the disk to eject, but that's about it. I wish the poll were more extensive, though. I'd like to know, for example, whether having your 360 vertical or horizontal makes a difference in the failure rate...

I don't think I'm overreacting. Why are EB's registers set up so that they can't simply pull the sale for my game out of their database (since I have the receipt which has a bar code and transaction code on it) and give me the proper amount of money? And how do they account for the extra 90...

I just got back from a frustrating experience at the local EB Games, and wondered if anyone else had this trouble, or if maybe an EB Games/GameStop employee can chime in. A friend of mine who lives out of state gave me a copy of Chulip for my birthday. I already have it. Luckily, my friend...
