Glen

Fry's is also selling Tekken 4 for $14.99.

.

GC has hit $99 at Amazon.com and TRU.
Story here on Gamespot.

outlaw volleyball xbox is down to $30 at EB

.

fyi TRU has a buy 2 get 1 free on all PC software, they really have a poor selection on games but have a large Learning Software selection for your kids.

BTW i thought Super Mario Advance 4 was coming out today, at TRU thats is when we are slated to get it. I have to check out our directs from airborne to see if it even shipped, if not then i guess it's not.

Glen,

Thanks for the weekly game wrap-up. I rarely buy games, but I do check-out your list every week looking for a deal - so thank you for the time you invest in this.

I've been waiting the past couple of months for TW 2004 (PS2) - if for nothing else than to see a price drop on TW 2003 (PS2). I've been holding off on buying TW 2003 (PS2) because it's been $50 everywhere I've seen it.

Has anyone seen a price drop on TW 2003 (PS2) yet? If so, please let me know where and how much.

Also, does anyone have a brief comparison of the two - TW 2004 vs. TW 2003? Is the 2004 version worth the premium (assuming the 2003 version has dropped in price)?

Eb has lowered the ps2 version's price.

Well I hate to say it all, but I'm going to be ending my thread here at HTF.

Over time I've just realized that this thread would probably be better setup at a site dedicated to gaming rather than a site that is dedicated to the Home Theater experience. So, I will be taking the thread over to a different site.

I want to thank all of you for coming here over the last year.

So, until the next time, I bid you all adieu.

Glen

Glenn,

where are you taking it too?

Did I miss something here? Are details allowed?

Thanks Glenn for a great experience.

Keep in touch,

Roy C.

I hate to see that. This was one of my Sunday, "Must check" threads. Please let us know if/when/where the new thread will be.

Chad

Where you moving off to Glenn? I thought this theard was very appropriate here, and was always a must check for me, at least once a day starting on Sundays.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.

Feel free to drop me an email and I'll let you know where the thread will be moving to.

I wouldn't want to advertise another site here. I just think that would be in bad taste.

Again, I have no problems with the HTF board and will keep coming here, I just believe that it could be better utilized by gamers on a gaming specific forum.

Thanks again,

Glen

Glen,

I'm a member of both sites, and personally, I think it's silly to stop posting it here... I would think you could post it in both places if you want, but to stop posting it here...

Well, it's your perogative.

Well, I made the choice to stop posting here because of the fact that it just doesn't get enough input from people. I think this isn't a gaming forum, and so, I decided to move it to one.

I have nothing against HTF and will continue to come here, but it just seemed as though the thread wasn't being seen by enough gamers for people to get the benefit from it.

Glen
