There aren't that many good games this year so far, so you are not losing much in that sense.

$69.99 after taxes $78.xx? dear lord



fuck 25th i'd be on vacation

someone get me a copy of fatman

Some games are still priced as 59.99 and 64.99. I dont get why prices differ for non special edition games. They should just make one damn price and stick to it

Thats why I never buy games retail. I just wait a week after they're released and someone on craigslist always has a new or used copy for $40. I never had to have a game right away when it came out. Patience will save you some money . I'm waiting for ninja gaiden sigma 2 to come out on sept 29th. I hope they have some opening day special or else I'll have to wait a week and grab it off someone on craigslist and NHL10 comes out in abotu 1 month. My buddy works at EA so I'll get hooked up with that

buying off CL is a great idea.

i laugh at ads that i've seen of newish games going for near retail. i mean really, who the fuck will buy a game at $60 used? even $50 is pushing it for me.

Thats the one thing I have noticed about the PS3, the few that do get problems, seem to get a lot of them. I know the fans on my buddies PS3 scream almost as loud as a 360, which is bordering on hurricane force. So he resold it and picked up a 60GB which works fine.

All the games I own are used

I'm gonna buy Modern Warfare 2 and NHL 10 though. I'm not gonna have the patience to wait for someone to sell their copy.

I USED to buy every single game the first day it released, sure many members recall that

had like 15-20 games for ps3, and i had like 50-60 blue rays...firsy day release

than slowly and slowly finally i realize...wait WTF why the hell am i paying this much for a video game that i know i will finish in 2-4 days lol

dont even wonna add how much i loss on paying retail

and i guess recently i finally realize how gay MSRP video game is until they jack up the price to $69.99. nearly 80 bux per game, u buy 4 of them and u own a console. doesnt make any sense...thats when i say the hell with it

^ the whole console is a marketing scheme! until they get some games I still say its in beta mode. considering they just came out with the Wiimotion Plus, which is good cause I always found the motion to be a little glitchy.

Games that we want to play.

Most people download games to their Wii anyway....

Mine's sitting there collecting dust. Good thing I didn't buy it.

BTW GT5 With damage.

and me lol. If I want the game enough I'll buy it first day. I've never bought any games on CL or a used game before. Too bad EA has hurt games or else I would take advantage of their staff discount more often.

UPDATE! Best Buy is selling Batman for $38 as well but it's already sold out lol.
