I know someone else already posted about getting PREY cheap, but there needs to be a thread to tally up all of the discounted prices because there are some ridiculous deals I just found and it will take a combined effort to scan all of Circuit City's games. Anyways, I have just purchased:

edit: Thank you to pcktlnt for making this list alphabetized and coding it for starforce.


[quote name='pcktlnt']To help out my fellow caggers, here is a compiled list of the games that have been listed throughout the entire forum. Do not hate on me if some of the prices may be off, I just copied/pasted. Good luck finding the games. Please, please please please please put the game title and price when you guys list. This way it would help out a lot. ^__^

A few questions were arising that I thought everyone knew. But I will help clarify here just in case.
  • All prices listed below are 50% off. That means, what you see listed below should be what you pay for that game.
  • NEVER believe the sticker price on Circuit City games. If you feel doubtful have the employee/cashier PRICE CHECK the game.
  • Your mileage may vary (YMMV). For example, we know that Sam & Max price checks for 24.99, but a fellow CAG was able to find one that had a sticker price of 19.99, so he/she was able to pick it up for 10.00. Same with someone else and a Deluxe version of Battlefield. Use your best judgment in obtaining a game not on this list.
  • If you do purchase a game, please list the game and price. This way, the list can be updated.
  • Good luck fellow CAGs.
Thank you fellow CAGs for posting your game finds and prices.

[quote name='jboy']How many Gigs of hard drive space does Splinter Cell: Double Agent use? I heard it was a system hog.[/quote]

The box says 8Gigs, I dont know if you will need more than that or not. - Haven't installed it yet.

Gonna go check out another CC today and have them price check some stuff I suspect will fall into the sale that isn't on the list so far.
 
[quote name='AwRy108']Snagged "Splinter Cell--Double Agent" for $2.53 and "Fable--The Lost Chapters" for $8.00. Passed on STALKER ($10) b/c I'm weary if my rig will run it or not, and "Rainbow Six--Vegas" ($5.xx) b/c it's not the kind of game I'd play.[/QUOTE]

Stalker really needs a higher end rig than what it says on the box. Even with lower settings I could barely play it at 10-13 fps :(

Be thankful this isn't the monster called Flight Simulator X. 2 DL-DVD!!! Good Lord! I had to clear out a lot of space for that thing, but it was worth it.

hopefully they have stuff left[/QUOTE]


You are going to be surprised and walk out happy.
 
[quote name='igotnodough']when do these deals end?[/quote]

Today is the last day! CC bargain bin sales sometimes appear to stick around even past their advertised date but don't count on it. Run out to the store now.

I have the GW: NF Collectors edition... but it looks like it needs the original game but I don't see a mention of it on the box :(

hmm, you sure its doesnt have original included?
 
hmm according to the FAQ

Is Nightfall an expansion pack or a stand-alone game?

Nightfall is a stand-alone product. Those who own Prophecies and/or Factions are not required to purchase Nightfall in order to continue playing on their game account, and those who purchase Nightfall may play it without purchasing Prophecies and/or Factions. However, there is a high level of interconnection between the three games that makes having all of them an exceptional experience.

hmmm

thats what I thought, well my fellow CAG, if I could succomb you or any1 else to pick one up I would be greatly obliged.

I emplore once again for someone to plz pick one up, if not for me, for all cheap asses in general.

[quote name='Matsumoto11756']Just got back from my crappy local CC and scored:
Call of Juarez
Gothic 3
The ship
Dark messiah
Armed and dangerous
Maelstorm
At the previously stated prices. $24.94 total after local taxes. I was surprised they had all of these. The tagged prices of 49 and 39 probably helped. May go back for some more later.......[/QUOTE]

Went back and added EA strategy collection $2.47 and Spellforce 2 $4.66. I am done now.
 
[quote name='ITDEFX']er, so this guild wars: nightfall is an expansion? er I don't have the full game :([/QUOTE]Each Guild wars title - the original (aka Prophecies), Factions, and Nightfall - are all STAND ALONE titles. You can start with Nightfall or Factions if you want. The only expansion that requires one of the other three titles is Eye of the North.

I picked up the original GW GOTY edition on Black Friday for $10 at Beast Buy and it's pretty cool. The best part is that there are no monthly subscription fees, so if you don't play much or just don't like it, you're only out the $10 you paid for the game itself. Give it a shot.
 
[quote name='p00ndawg']anyone?:cry:[/QUOTE]


Hang in there, I am calling around my local CC's to see if anyone else has it...
Being transfered 7-9 times is getting on my nerves and it's not in the system any more (but the original non CE version is). Give me another 20-30 minutes...

Allow me to repeat that I'm still looking for Battlefield 2 Deluxe (or even Special Forces)...

Or Battlefield 1942 Complete, for that matter.

Excellent find! Such a funny game.

Wouldn't mind getting a couple more games, I have a problem, but not so interested in driving a half hour to the next closest one on the slim hope they have R6 Vegas or SH4.

I'm betting it has a bonus DVD inside.
 
There is in fact, a bonus DVD inside. What's inside it I'm not sure of. I'll watch it later though, probably just some "Making of" or some sort of a background story.
 
[quote name='amusedtoe']I'm betting it has a bonus DVD inside.[/QUOTE]

Haha good one.

I was just wondering if that was a first run only limited kind of thing.

I can't find a pic, but its the exact same cover art with a little dark red circle sticker that says "Bonus PC DVD inside".
 
I made a second trip today and picked up Dark Messiah and LOTR: BFME2.
I wanted to justify Titan Quest but I think the Diablo 2 I picked up will last me until the rapture and beyond.

I wanted to get diablo, but I just couldnt justify 10 bucks for such an old game.
 
Sorry, couldn't resist being a smart ass. :) I need to stop camping on here and go play some games before I decide to go to the store.

Haha, it's all good.

That's the funny thing about CAG. Sometimes I think I spend more time thinking about buying games then playing them.
 
[quote name='p00ndawg']I wanted to get diablo, but I just couldnt justify 10 bucks for such an old game.[/quote]
I've played Diablo 2 off an on since it came out haha. I've beaten it several times but it's so enjoyable I don't mind. I'm excited because a friend bought it too so we can multi.
 
I drove up to my CC today and it was well worth it, thanks to everybody that listed titles so I knew what to look for.

Call of Juarez $5
Prey LCE (metal tin) $8
Dark Messiah LE $4.12
Darwinia $1.29
Stalker $10
EA Strategy Collection $2.74
LotR BFME2 $3.50

I was hoping to get Puzzle Quest, C&C big box, and GW:NF but didn't see any. Stopped at EB/GS on the way home and burned up some gift cards on Titan Quest Gold for $29.99, which is almost as much as I spent on all the games I scored at CC.
 
2nd run to a CC in a ghetto area was dissapointing. I dont even think they stock new games anymore. I tlooks like they just said screw it (all I saw that was new was the newest unreal torunament).
There was no order to anything and you couldnt find 2 of the same game in the same row.
That being said, I did get:

dungeon seige 2 8.98
Heroes of MnM V 7.50
Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter 7.50

The funny thing is since this CC is so back ass wards, I couldnt find any dvd versions of these games. They were all Cdrom(as were most of the games except for a few newer ones).

Gonna go back to the nice one and see if Dungeon Seige 2 dvd version is the same price. Maybe price check the DS/HoM&M V xpacks they had also.

Has anyone tried price checking the stand alone age of empires 3 yet? if not, ill see if they have that as well.
 
When I checked out today, the clerk's badge said "PC Supervisor" and when he saw what the ones I bought rung up as, his eyes lit up and his jaw dropped. I told him there were a few more back there so he should take a look, heh. He obviously had no idea they had went down so far.
 
ok so I spent like 90 dollars on all this when I could have paid $754.79 + tax

:rofl:

this is nuts

Something is telling me I should raid the other CC 30 minutes away and see what I can find :p


nah....

Seriously did anyone get some strange looks from employees/customers when your hands were full of games?
 
[quote name='quadomatic']NOOOOOOOOOOOOO today's the last day????

I can't get to the store today :([/quote]

Can anyone confirm this? Is today the last day for these prices?
 
[quote name='Z(+)DIAC']Can anyone confirm this? Is today the last day for these prices?[/QUOTE]
It should be.

The reason these are so cheap, is because this week (ending today), CC is having all PC games under $20 for half off. Normally they'd be twice this much.
 
[quote name='Z(+)DIAC']Can anyone confirm this? Is today the last day for these prices?[/QUOTE]


If the employees didn't know most of this stuff was that low, I don't expect them to know if this will continue after tonight. Heck we might wake up tomorrow morning and some of us might find out a glitch in the system allowing for these games to stay that low for a bit longer.
 
[quote name='ITDEFX']Seriously did anyone get some strange looks from employees/customers when your hands were full of games?[/quote]

The crappy CC I went to today, I had to bring them up to the register and asked for a price check, the girl said with a suspicious tone in her voice, wow these are cheap. (like I was trying to pull a fast one). This CC always hassles you when you try to get a price match or return something with a receipt ,which is why I hate it.

I said "I know, they are on sale, but I wasnt sure how much so I needed the price check before I commit to buying them". Then she goes on to tell me its the manufactureres fault that they arent marked with a price. Nothing on the shelves and nothing on the games as far as prices go. "Thats how they come to us" she said and made no mention of the fact that they were suppose to mark the boxes themselves lol. She was a supervisor of some sorts as well whihc is really sad.
This CC is full of so much fail its funny as long as you dont have to fight with them to honor the ad prices.
 
[quote name='ITDEFX']Seriously did anyone get some strange looks from employees/customers when your hands were full of games?[/quote]
I got tons, the first CC i went to tho, I felt like a complete fool, they had none of the games mentioned or that I wanted and everything I price checked was regular price.

The second I went too tho they freaked out, big time.

No limited edition guild wars, but I think we have that sorted out.

:D
 
[quote name='necrojustice']Mine had the LE Guild Wars but I'm super burnt out on GW all-together.[/QUOTE]
I'd totally rebuy it off you.
