I picked it up the PS3 version for $6. Don't know what the 360 version is priced at.

Weren't you just in Appleton, WI yesterday?

That's a pretty large radius...


Yea, I was in WI on business and when I am after work bored I check out the local stores for deals.

I called b/c I didnt want to drive all the way to the nearest store ... they said uncharted was still in their cases not in clearance ... does that mean anything, is everyone picking up uncharted in the case still? ... I asked if he scanned it and he basically hung up.

Never call posts in 3...2...1


To answer your question though, you're relying on the employees to know what they're talking about. There are plenty of clearance games behind the glass in my TRU. Yakuza 3 is a good example.

I can't remember for sure, but it is definitely one that people in the thread had discussed as having a price that ended in 0 or 8. Kay would probably be able to tell us or Prim444 or maybe IATCG because he's a PS3 guy.

Is the clearance Uncharted the GH version or the non-GH, or does it not matter? Both ring up the same price?

I'm almost positive that it was reduced in price to a 0 or 8 price. Maybe I'm imagining this. Now you guys have me second guessing myself.

Don't know if its accurate or not, but my TRU has Yakuza 3 priced at 34.98.

Thanks to everyone who replied .. yes, it comes up $6 despite being in the case under a $29.99 tag. Also, I got the second copy for 40% off, so that is working on clearance. 2 copies for $10.

They both have the same UPC, so both games should be the $6. Although finding the non-GH version isnt as easy to find thus only the GH version is being reported for the $6.

Thanks for the heads up! Also thanks to everyone who mentioned the game being on clearance.

Picked up a copy today at the San Rafael, CA store. There is one copy left, in the back with all the games under $19.99.

The store also has 3 big bins clearly marked Clearance before you enter the R-Zone. Couldn't remember all the titles but Dark Void (PS3- $17.98), Bionic Commando (PS3- $8.98) were amongst the many.

Saw both of those today. I know Saboteur was in the $14-$18 range, but I don't remember what Mirror's Edge was. It was definitely below $20. Already own both so I wasn't interested.

I did pick up Red Faction and Fallout 3 for ~$10 with the promotion. Wanted a $6 copy of Wet but they couldn't find a copy even though the display box was on the shelf.

Wait, when was Wet lowered to $6?

Thanks for the heads up on Uncharted guys. Scored one in that ugly GH red box. They had The Saboteur, 3d Dot Heroes, Bayonetta, Lair, Yakuza 3 as well but the clerks were too busy to price check and I was pressed for time. Anyone know the prices for these?

Snagged Uncharted for $6. The Rock Band track packs aren't absurdly cheap anymore either. Ringing up at like $16.98

Only a couple RB Track Packs dropped really cheap. Some are still 16.98 or so.

What do you think this is, Family Dollar? :)

I'm pretty sure I saw copies of Yakuza 3 for $34.98 at the other TRU by me today.

Also, I was wondering if the used games some stores are now selling will work for the B1G1 40% off dealie. Any idea on this, prim or kay?

I ask because that same TRU had a resealed copy of Way Of The Samurai 3 for $22.89 today and if I could find something else I'd want to pick up with it I'd gladly pick it up for under $30.

What made me laugh though was that in the used game section they had the :ps3: version of the AC/DC Rock Band Track Pack for $7.98, which is almost $3 over it's current MSRP most everywhere.:roll:

Almost all of the used games at my local TRU are brand new with Y folds and on the 360 games, security seals. It almost looks like they converted some new games to used. I agree about the pricing, many of the "used" prices are cheaper than new games. Like some Singstar PS2 game was $22.xx when it was on clearance last year for $3.00.

They won't work. The used games have their own category and are not included in any of the regular video game categories. The prices are also set by Gamers Factory, not TRU.

The used games will be on sale during this week's 2 day sale (11/19-11/20) Buy 1 Get 1 50% off.

And on the other end of the spectrum, I was looking through the used Xbox 360 games and I found a couple with Hollywood Video artwork/covers !

A sealed "used" copy of G.I. Joe was in the bargain bin for $27.98. A brand new copy was $6.00.
