Hello again!

I gotta tell you, it's getting to be more and more fun to run this thread, as we see more and more people "saving" some money on games this way. I know I own way more games than I should. I think that means I'm doing something right. :)

Here we go!

D'oh! Glen, thanks for the roundup as always, but curse you for alerting me that Ultimate Muscle for Cube is out this week! Can't say I'm familiar with the characters or the show, but it's an AKI developed wrestling game, and EGM was raving about it.....great, another $50 on an already stacked DVD week....though it will likely have to wait.

It was attack of the $10 gift cards this week according to the ads. :)

Sorry it was so late to get this up and running, my wife and I went to hockey this morning, then looked at a REALLY big purchase. (A lot of land)

I'll check for more drops later today, but now I must reload my wife's PC. :)

BTW, that AKI wrestling game sounds very promising. I'll have to wait to see what the reviews have to say.

Just to continue our conversation from last week's thread, I am now officially a crack...er...game addict Glen. I picked up both Baldur's Gate ($9.99 @ BB) and 007 Nightfire ($14.99 @ EB). My girlfriend likes watching me play 007 but actually co-op plays BG! Best $25 I've ever spent on videogames! :D Thanks for your helpful weekly listing!

Hey Glen,

Great Roundup as always! One thing I noticed is that you have MechAssault listed as $9.99 at Best Buy. The ad I saw actually listed the game as $29.99 this week. Just thought I would let you know.

Edit: I just noticed you said the price was after Xbox Live discount. Keep up the good work! :b

Not sure if this is confirmed or not maybe someone can verify. I read a post over at the IGNps2 board that Blockbuster dropped the price of Sly Cooper to $20 (new)

Larry, I'm planning on running to Blockbuster today to take a look to see if Sly did drop to that price. I've been waiting to pick that one up for my wife. $20 sounds like the right price to me.

Panzer Dragoon Orta has dropped to $29 at Best Buy, along with Xenosaga for the PS2.

Remember those Gamer Gift cards. They're a $5 savings on any game $19.99 and over.

Well looky here. I'm back after a two day absence. Man, working from 8 in the morning to 3:30 at night really takes a lot out of you. That and losing 1st and 2nd gears in my car. Fun, fun, fun. :)

Ok, we've had a few more additions to the list.

Shinobi and Wild Arms 3 for the PS2 are now down to $19.99 at EB.

Haven has dropped to $4.99 at EB as well.

NFL2K3 and NCAA2K3 College Football for the PS2 have hit $9.99 at EB.

That and Splashdown for the Xbox has hit $19.99 at EB.

If I can pull it off, I'll be picking up Wild Arms 3 and Haven today... just need to get my car to limp over there.

I ended up picking up Haven and Wild Arms 3 for the PS2 today.

What can I say?

I'm weak. :)

Glen

BTW, has anyone confirmed Sly Cooper for $20? I stopped at a Blockbuster tonight and didn't see it there.
