Big Lots 360 games $18.88 + Wii/DS games

[commandercody83]

Tonight I visited a Big Lots store in Cape Girardeau, MO. Was searching through the DVD's and saw a green transparent case... pulled it to find a copy of Monster Jam

Looked around and found a cardboard display of games:

(all $18.88)
Stuntman: Ignition
Hot Wheels: Beat That
NBA Live (don't remember the year)
Thrillville
NHL (don't remember the year)
Paintball (don't remember the name)
Smackdown vs. Raw
Monster Jam
Simpsons The Game

Saw some and games, nothing that seemed worth a crap (all junk basically).

Just was at mine yesterday...No 360 games so this is very much a YMMV. I sure would be impressed if my Big Lots began carrying 360 games, more retailers can only mean the price dropping.

Thanks for the heads up, commander

I thinking most it is probably from CC, thats how some of them got those GH and laptops awhile back. Hopefully something good would come of this.

Seen all of those cheaper elsewhere. Thanks for the post though OP.

Thanks for the heads up that Big Lots even sells 360 games but these aren't exactly deals.

They just started selling console games... we talked a bit about the PS2 games in the Big Lots thread: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92403&page=61

Thanks for the share - have seen some of them cheaper though!

this is good news.. i don't think any of those games that're listed are worth buying at those prices, but it's great to know big lots is selling current gen console games.

They have the Shrek Carnival game for the Wii. I saw that yesterday. Im pretty sure it's 24.99 used at Gamestop.

Am I missing something?

On topic, I hope this is a precedent, cos I would love to see a continuous stream of console games at Big Lots.

I just remember seeing Roller Coaster Tycoon 3(PC) there for five bucks flat. I'll never be shopping there again, though. It's a mess.

For some reason, I have an attraction to crappy cheap games and Monster Jam and Hot Wheels: Beat that have been on my radar for a while now.

I don't remember. You'll have to check the thread for details.

No problem.... glad to actually have something to post. I wondered if some were cheaper elsewhere.... like Monster Jam (one I've wanted to play even though I don't tink it's great). It's $12.xx used on the GS website, but I haven't seen any in the store.

Not too worried about it. Seems like it would have been a good item for them to carry before Christmas, not now.

Yeah, Big Lots has always been a place I check for cheap PC games that'll still run on my system. I got Psychonauts, Darwinia, City of Villains, Universe at War and Painkiller Gold there for $4 a piece.
