I live in the Metrowest area (Natick/Framingham). Still waiting for a used videogame sale to pop up at Newburry Comics. They have them every once in a while.

It was Amazon's videogame deal of the day at this price yesterday.

Well, The Witcher 2 from every digital download site is a "collector's" edition, so this is pretty much the best price I've found (even after tax). I rarely do PC game pre-orders anymore, but what the hell, I sprang for it.

Bah. I ordered a copy of Dead Rising which was supposed to be "excellent" and it looked like it was put through a grinder. Someone was skidding it all over a hard-floor. I've never seen a disc that scratched before. Unacceptable.

Target scans in the serial # when they make the sale (I would imagine for returns), and to be honest I really wouldn't care much either way if they ran out of stock if it was broken, I'd just get a refund. There will always be a "better deal". At this price it makes little difference to me.

OK, thanks. I am new to the 360 so this helps. I also noticed the mfr date is 4/14/10. I imagine this is good because it's a recent mfr, and even though it says "256mb" on the package it should have 512mb, correct? (I am not going to hook it up until I get a HDMI cable next week anyways)

How do I know if I got the Spring Bundle? I just grabbed whatever they had. It came with the two free games, Viva Pinata and Nuts & Bolts.

I picked one up at Target for $135 w/$50 GC as well. Will I be fine with a 16GB FlashDrive or should I just get a bigger HD? I also have a PS3 and don't know how many games I'll end up with. What concerns me is if after I buy a big harddrive MS will introduce a Slim bundle with a build in...

I really wish the codes were only available to those who paid for membership. That would basically solve the problem.

The problem is that too many people got free memberships recently and are abusing the codes. I think the ones who paid for their memberships are less likely to abuse them than the ones who didn't.

I just joined. Arkham Asylum for PC after the $5 discount + code=$35.49total. Not bad. Tempted to get Dragon Age for PC too now.

No it's not. Diablo 3 is Diablo 3. Actually Mythos was more fun (developed by the same team) before they closed up shop.

That's a little vague. The virtual gift cards are just numbers I received via email. So what you're saying is that they're essentially the same as cash and I could use them anywhere, even at the supermarket to buy food if I wanted to? That couldn't be, because I have a Visa card and the numbers...

I have about $40 worth of these from various rebates. Are FYE Virtual Gift Cards only good at FYE or can I use them at other Transworld stores? How about Best Buy (this would be ideal)? What about Wherehouse.com and Secondspin.com? Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful.

No voice chat (bummer) but it's getting good reviews plus it's on sale at Circuit City for $49 so I'll be picking it up anyways. Hoping they'll add the voice chat later if enough people complain.
