I think this is a hoax. The older games on this list, some of them make sense to blow out / clearance at $1.99.

But things like Oblivion Collectors Edition (xbox 360) for $1.99 or 4.99.. is useless. They're not going to stop carrying that game come Monday. It's still a very popular title, and would sell massively well at $19 or $29 and probably even $39.

There are SEVERAL more on that list that are still actively hot titles that don't need discounts to sell.

In any case I'm subscribing just to see the fallout. But just in case it's real, I'll see the rest you FW fools at BB first thing Monday morning!

zhelder said:Hmmm. I call Shenanigans on this. Even if the lists are legitimate (and I'm skeptical as to whether they are), I'll bet that most people will have a snowball's chance in Satan's home of finding any of these games in their local stores. Most of them were probably pulled from shelves months ago, as is usually the case when any of these "sales" occur. We'll see.

Zhelder, I was actually at BB yesterday and recognize a MAJORITY of the NDS, GBA, and GCUBE games on this list were in stock and selling at typical prices. Can't speak for the other system, but if the prices are real you'll definitely be able to find the nintendo titles!

At what time of day are you guys going to go? around lunch time? I mean, we do all have jobs/school etc to go to, right?

I'm trying to gauge whether I should even bother going by lunch, or if it'll all be sold out by then.

Don't know where you are located, but Northern Virginia areas will see me at the front door when they open. I work nights and get off at 6AM.. sure makes shopping deals easier

bingo. Store shelves will be bare come monday morning. IF you want a chance at this, you need to show up Sunday morning so you can return and rebuy on monday.

don't forget to post back with what you actually find. the more i read up on this at cag, the more i think either the stores has low stock on these games OR the employees are pulling the listed games for themselves or to be put out again monday.

wait...return and rebuy will work for these?!?

Thanks for posting the deal OP.

Went to my local Best Buy tonight.

I could not find a single game on that list on the shelves.

I wonder if they pulled them in advance of the sale....
or are they just that old that they no longer had them.

I would have expected to at least found the Xbox 360 games...


alert mods    

are any of the PS2 games non-involved enough to be playable with a chick for short periods of time?

I was hoping to find Crazy Taxi or Ready 2 Rumble Boxing, but neither of them were on there. I thought maybe Crash Tag Team Racing would do, but that got absolutely terrible reviews.

Can someone suggest any other games on that list which might be similar? I guess I'll have to go with that camcom stuff if I can find it.

is this for real?

Me too, I went there and asked for Mario Party 7 (CUB) and Oblivion Collectors Edition (xbox 360) the answer is that these haven't been on the shelves for almost a year so I guess the sale maybe a couple of bins full of games for all of those that are left
