Thank you and sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
 
It's getting really late (2:14AM here on the East Coast).

Only the die hard cheap asses will get this deal. I truly believe it. :shock:
 
You're welcome webcamjenna. Its cool to see a girl with unique interests somewhere these days. All the girls I know and meet at school or wherever are pretty much cookie cutter similar personality wise. Its kind of refreshing on here though...

which I need to stay awake until the sale starts.

*twiddling thumbs until I can get my hands on SSX and/or 007*

EDIT: I guess me and that other guy are twiddling. Which might be kind of awkward. Damn why am I so tired all of a sudden
 
[quote name='webcamjenna'][quote name='magilacudy']Damn pardon me for saying how hot that is that webcamjenna: likes anime. NFL. NFL video games. Cheap games + free shipping. is a girl (i'm assuming).

Maybe there's some chance she's Jenna Jameson :shock:[/quote]

HAHA. Naw I'm not Jenna Jameson(most people assume I am) but thanks for the comments. Not a lot of guys are amazed by my interests.[/quote]

This brings back memories of the original JenniCam. Alas, it is no more...
 
heh I'm waitin for SSX3 and Bond too. Baseball, I'll probably buy that tomorrow when they get it in, if they don't let me add it to my order tonight.

Anybody remember that famous commericial for Payless Shoes where this quote came from? Just making conversation. *Twiddles fingers*[/quote]
Wasn't that for Mervyn's, not Payless? :wink:

I'm in CA too, so I'm waiting along with the rest of you...about 40 minutes till. Looking to pick up either Bond or NFL Street, but I hope the free shipping thing is true as well...we'll find out soon enough.
 
Does anyone have any idea how this is going to show up. Are the EA games going to magically appear in the discount section. Or will they just all be reduced to 29.99? The anticipation's killing me.
 
[quote name='buddy the puppy']I'm buyin' EVERY copy of Suicide Monkey Revolution they have and do a Walmart trick![/quote]

DO IT!
 
Definately waiting for Bond. Undecided as to whether I should get it for PS2 or Xbox.

My PS2 has an online adapter and is networked, yet the draw of better graphics and frame rate is hard to resist.

Is SSX3 a decent game for a very casual sports game player? I usually hate sports games with the possible exception of some racing games.

Two games for the price of one would be rather nice. However, if I don't get in on this deal, there will always be used copies in the upcoming months. I have a LOT of games right now, due to this site, Half.com, and Ebay, so if this doesn't work out, I'll go back to playing Brave Fencer Mushashi and other similar games.

(Edited for spelling and grammar.)

Isn't 50% off $49.99 end up being $24.99, not $29.99?

Oh, and I don't know how they'll do it...it's 30 minutes and counting for me, and I'm guessing that it'll just be advertised on the front page of the site or something. No real idea, though.

Yes, I have SSX 3 (PS2) and it is for both casual and hardcore gamers. The controls are easy to get into (for me at least). I pretty much play games only on weekends, so that has to be casual enough.
 
Is the new Bond DIAL-UP or Broadband only? I only have dialup and if its broadband only I would get it for XBOX for sharper graphics.
 
check out the Kb toys 20% off sale (12th and 13th) for cheep copies of SSX 3 $25 with 20% off

Thanks! I think I might pick that up then.

Hutno:

Thanks! Going to look into that Kbtoys sale. If it is in store only, then I will probably try to use the Buy.com deal; unfortunately I live over 30 miles away from a Toys R Us.

SSX3 isn't $25 any longer is it?

Broadband only :( I have dial up too, and had to wait until I actually saw the game cover at a store before I found out whether or not it supported dial up connections. Looks like you'll get it for Xbox then?

One last note about SSX 3: I was a complete novice to the SSX games, with my only previous experience being in a SSX Tricky demo.
 
SSX 3's easier then previous games because the controls automatically right you so you land on your board and not on your head. I played tricky and was about to break the controller

Thanks for the info dude! Yeah I couldn't find ANYWHERE online where they gave the specifics of it! Even Amazon didn't say!
 
Ahh yeah that's true MICHAE2414, it is $24.99, which is even better. My math skills are definitely lacking due to lack of sleep right now.
 
[quote name='hutno']Nope my B sorry to get your hopes up[/quote]

No problem. I tend to skip in store deals in general, since it isn't worth the gas, time, and wear and tear on my car.

Eh, even if I don't get the games I am interested in, this is at least an entertaining endeavor; I would have been up this late anyway, so at least my usual 3am bedtime may actually come in handy.

So, hopefully at 2am Central time (3am Eastern, 12am Western) we'll see some activity on Buy.com.
 
The Kb toys sale was random i just walked but and everything was on sale
the guy was literally force fedding me anything he could sell me. Its was funny, some guy came in and picked up a 3 gamecubes. This sale is probably because Kb isnt going to stock games in a lot of its stores anymore

About 8 minutes, I hope this really does start at midnight (otherwise I'm going to sleep and doing this tomorrow morning, if I'm not too late by then).

I'm only getting one game, and I am only going to be ordering it if the price is $24.99 shipped (as the email otherwise states).

If it starts in 10 hours, so be it. All I'm hoping for is 50% off MVP Baseball 2004.
