[GlenHaag]

I ended up picking up Mark of Kri today for $9.99. Just didn't think I could pass it up for that price.

Still looking for Nascar: Dirt to Daytona though for the Gamecube. That just looks like a solid racer.

Glen

 

[Rodon]

Picked up Neverwinter Nights Shadows of Underntide Expansion Pack. Thanks for the info.

 

[Roger_C]

Ape Escape 2 for me. I just played the demo. Just like the first one, but it was great. Highly recommended if you're remotely interested in platformers.

 

[Rob Lutter]

Nightfire (XBOX) has been marked back up to $29.99 at my local EB

 

[Joel Hurley]

-Another great addition has been made to my game collection courtesy of Glen and his Weekly Wrap-up!

-I don't have a Target near-by, but I keep saying that if I get near one I am going to look for Sega Soccer Slam, as Glen mentioned that it was only $7.50 (though curiously you now have it listed at $15.00 in your above list Glen ??) Anyway, when I finally made it to Target I spent a good ten minutes searching for the game with no luck, and the sales associate said he'd never heard of the game, which bout put the nail in the coffin of my hopes. But just as I was leaving a light bulb went off in my head. I went back to the game section and moved the game rack away from the wall, got down on my hands and knees and peered into the dusty shadows. There were 3 or 4 games lost PS1 titles under the rack and one lone Xbox title,... yep, Soccer Slam! The last copy for sure,... damn, I should have played the lottery! Anyway, it's a great game, and the girlfriend loves it too, Cha-ching! :wink:
-Thanks again Glen

-P.S. What a steal for $7.50!!

 

[GlenHaag]

Oops. I had Soccer Slam in the list twice. My bad.

Thanks,

Glen

 

[Matty P]

Has anyone heard the rumor or been able to confirm that Target had copies of Contra for PS2 on clearance for $15? I would love to grab a copy if this is true....thanks!

 

[Craig.Ki]

Target also has a couple of $5 off coupons that can be found here:

http://www.getintothegame.com/bonus_level/index.aspx

NBA Street 2 for $32.88...don't think I can pass this one up!

 

[Allen_Appel]

I picked up Zoocube for GBA for $9.99 at CompUSA.

 

[GlenHaag]

Allen,

Let me know what you think of that one. It looked like an interesting puzzle type game. Eventually I'm going to pick up the GC version. I played that one once and enjoyed it.

Glen

 

[GlenHaag]

RTX Red Rock has dropped to $20 already.

Man, that was fast....

Glen

 

[Allen_Appel]

Glen, this was going to go on the "unopened" pile, but since you asked...

So far, it seems like a good game. Fun/frustrating like Tetris. It's a little easier to paint yourself into a game-ending corner than Tetris, but I was looking for a new puzzler, and this fit the ($10) bill. At that price, most games are a done deal for me, unless I know it's a stinker. Now the dilemma is do I get the GC game as well, or just play this on the Game Boy Player?

 

[Dah-Dee]

Saw Backyard Baseball for $19.99 at Best Buy, meaning you can get it for $14.99 if you can find a Gamer's Gift Card (has $5 off coupon on back).

 

[GlenHaag]

I've heard decent things about the Backyard sports titles. Not the best for adults, but kids seem to love them.

Glen

 

[Troy*H]

uummm...that soccer slam you are talking about that is sega soccer slam right? Has anyone played it? I keep hearing how fun it is multiplayer...for 7.50 I'll go check tommarrow if they have it.

Thanks for making these lists they always help save a few bucks!!!

Troy

 

[Ken Chui]

Yes. The $7.50 price applies to the Xbox version. There are PS2 and Gamecube versions, but it's safe to say that most Target outlets are probably sold out of those (I know the PS2 version was discounted a few months back).

 

[Ken Chui]

For Best Buy shoppers:

Keep an eye out for the free "Summer Buyer's Guide" magazine in the video game section. In addition to preview articles of games expected for release this summer, there are a number of $5.00 coupons for the following items:

- any Dragon Ball Z title
- any Mad Catz accessory $14.99 or higher
- any Xbox Platinum Hits title
- Donkey Kong Country (GBA)
- Game Doctor
- Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, Sonic DX, Super Monkey Ball 2 (Gamecube)

 

[Jason_H]

Just a heads up, I found both Gungrave (PS2) and Gunvalkyrie (XBox) for $7.50 each in the clearance section at Target!!! Quite a deal...haven't had a chance to play them yet.

 

[Troy*H]

yep...called every single Target in my phone book and not one had any left :frowning:
