If you work at a store that sells Microsoft products and participates in the program then you should be using their Retail ExpertZone. I got Gears of War, Viva Pinata and an extra controller for $25. |
I'm very mysterious when I'm inside you.

Geez, that Circuit City link has a lot of cheap games. Tower Records is still having a 25% off sale of games, as well as HD-DVD, Blu-Ray, and DVD movies. http://www.towerrecords.com/Games/Default.aspxhttp://www.towerrecords.com/Video/Default.aspxNot exactly the greatest deals, but it could save some money.

Quite a few PS2 titles under $25. $15 : (PS2) God of War, Shadow of the Colossus, the Viewtiful Joes, GT4, Resident Evil 4, all R&C games, Kingdom Hearts, Tekken 5 $22 : (360): Perfect Dark Zero, Kameo, Burnout Revenge, Rumble Roses, PGR3, Prey $30: (360): Hitman Blood Money, CoD2, FarCry Instincts, Dynasty Warriors 5, Test Drive, Quake 4, Chromehounds, American Wasteland, Bomberman, GRAW |

How is that 19" flat-panel? I don't need one, but got a buddy or 3 who would consider it.

So far I have not managed to obtain a LCD at the office, but if the screen on my T40 is any indication then it is perfectly serviceable.

Just noticed this thread. I'm looking for a second LCD monitor. Anything from a 17" ghetto one that is nice and cheap, to a 22-24" LCD that is sexy and has component plugs on it. Any sales that anyone knows would be much appreciated.

StarForce (which is why I never bought it). Hmmmm, I saw a list that seemed to indicate that Starforce was only on the European version. I can't say that I know for sure if that's true or not though. |

I am only posting this because it is very funny in this particular thread: I saw Eternal Darkness for sale at Wal*Mart today for $49.95. No kidding. Think of this as a warning-post.

The BestBuy my brother-in-law works at was selling a bunch of X-Box games for .99 until their GM decided that was too cheap. Asshole marked a new cart of them up to $4.99. But I did manage to get 9 titles for a buck each before then, including King Kong, True Crime, Superman Returns and Flatout2, along with other shit that will be trade bait.

It was a fucking dollar. I'm likely to get at least what, $1/$1.50 out of it when I trade it in?
It wasn't nearly as bad as Pro Stroke Golf.

In Canada Dell is doing its "Days of Deals" promotion and today the 2407WFP (nice 24-inch widescreen) is on sale for $650 down from $850 with free shipping. Only today though, new deals tomorrow. There are also some really cheap phones that went from $139 to $59, even has two handsets. The prices won't look like such great deals to Americans (even after the exchange rate) but they are actually pretty good for Canada. |

That's what I thought....
So how exactly are 1k gamerpoints worth $13, if they don't actually Do anything?

It depends on whether or not you find it painful to play through PSU's story mode. |

I'm talking about the Old Spice rewards contest. Pretty sure, success in the contest will vault you to the next level in the next contest. Assuming there's a level 4 in it.

Well, I guess you could eventually get a free copy of Fusion Frenzy 2, whatever that's worth. Also, what are Microsoft points? Are they the Arcade points used to buy stuff like Geometry Wars?
I guess it makes sense if you Really want FF2, or something.

FF2 is a 50 or 60 dollar game and they were out of copies within a week of the contest starting. The points are just bragging rights and they add shelf life to a game if you really like to "finish" games. |

Activision games are Buy 1 get 1 free at Toys R Us and Toysrus.com this week. Except for PS3 games apparently. Of course Activision doesn't exactly have the greatest selection of games, but there's some ok stuff that might be worth a purchase to some. |

While not exactly cheap yet, the PSP just got a $30 price drop, from $199 down to $169 (I see that amazon.com and a few others haven't changed their prices yet, but toysrus.com ebgames/gamestop, and best buy's website at least have it changed on thiers already). Note that this is the pack which I think doesn't come with any memory stick.

This is not game-related, but if anyone wants half-price tickets to the new World of Coke that opens May 24, drop me a note. Limit four.
