Hello again all.

Anywho... Here is the preliminaries for this weeks Price Watch. I hope to have this all completed by the end of the day.

I will have more in this thread as the day goes on. I'm still working my way through the flyers from yesterday, and really couldn't bring them to work. Sorry.
Thanks for your patience.
As you can see this is a rather big week as far as the ads were concerned. Just about everyone had 20 or 30 games available. Makes for a busy typing day.

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault Spearhead (PC)


Is this just add on missions for Medal of Honor: Allied Assault or a seperate game??

 

[GlenHaag]

It's an addon from what I've seen.

Thanks,

Glen

 

[Christopher_H]

Medal of Honor Allied Assault Spearhead is an expansion pack for the first Allied Assault game. It has like 8 new levels or something and a lot more stuff to do in multiplayer mode. (new weapons, grenades, characters and maps).

I can't wait to get this one!!

 

[John Berggren]

Great list. I'm waiting on a PS2 bundle or price drop to sit the Sony device next to my gamecube. Until then I'll have to balance whether or not I should get Sonic Mega Collection or just wait for Metroid.

 

[Scott Shanks]

Target had the GameCube on sale for $129.99. If you buy the Cube for $149.99 you get a $20 gift card in return.

 

[GlenHaag]

I was going to be posting a few things like that later today, but you beat me to the punch.
I'm not sure you'd be able to use the gift card on that purchase though. If you could, it's a great deal.
Glen

 

[Chris S]

Thanks for the post. Is Star Wars: Bounty Hunter coming out early? I thought it wasn't due out for a week or two. Man the Xbox live is tempting, but there just aren't any games I really want to play on it...

Chris S.

 

[Patrick_S]

Man the Xbox live is tempting, but there just aren't any games I really want to play on it...

I know how you feel. I would buy it in a heartbeat if Halo were online.

I have read that Halo II will support online play so I guess I'll just wait until it arrives.

 

[Scott Shanks]

I'm not sure you'd be able to use the gift card on that purchase though. If you could, it's a great deal.

You can't use it on that purchase, but as much as our family (especially my wife) shops at Target, it's like getting $20 in cash back. I plan to use the $20 towards a Wavebird.

 

[Dave Scarpa]

Anyone call around and find out if Either Mechassault or Unreal will street today ?

 

[GlenHaag]

NBA 2K3 (Xbox) for $39.99 at Kbkids.com
I'm just trying to prove that I don't stop with the sales flyers.
Glen

 

[GlenHaag]

NBA Street for the Gamecube at Target $9.99 on their Clearance shelf. I have no idea if this is at every store, but well worth a look for a terrific Bball game.

Spy Hunter for the Gamecube also at Target for $14.99 on Clearance. (Just for you David)

Glen

 

[David Lambert]

Not at MY Target. :frowning:

 

[GlenHaag]

Dave,

If you want, send me an email and I'll pick up Spy Hunter at the local Target.

Shouldn't be more than 17 or so with shipping.

Let me know.

Glen

 

[David Lambert]

I might take you up on that. Let me check a couple of other nearby Targets first, though.

 

[John Thomas]

Any word on Mechassault for the XBox? I've seen glimpses of it on TechTV and it looks pretty darn impressive.

 

[Chris S]

I had a friend at work who pre-ordered Mechassualt from ebgames.com and he received a copy in the mail on Tuesday. Check any GameStops or EB stores in your area. They are probably your best shot.

Chris S.

 

[GlenHaag]

I saw a few copies of MechAssault at Best Buy when I was out there today.

Also, I saw Gun Valkyre for $19.99 at Best Buy. Not an advertised price, just a drop it looks.
