I picked up quite a bit when the sale started; Digital Devil Saga, Fatal Frame 2, RE4, Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX, Pikmin 2, and Tekken 5.

I really did want to pick up Darkstalkers for $10 on the PSP, but my TRU was cleaned out of it and only had Rengoku and a soccer game for PSP titles which neither are worth $10 if you ask me.

[Conekiller]

Most Excellent, I got a Resident Evil 4 for GC thanks to that sale

an Alien Hominid, Metal Slug 4 & 5 and Killer 7 as well ( PS2, but for Christmas gifts)

[Noukon]

I was planning to finally snag RE4, but couldn't find it anywhere.

I did score Pikmin 2, WarioWare for GC, Final Fantasy I & II (GBA), and the Super Monkey Ball 2-pack, though.

This sale is pretty awesome. It's worth noting that a lot of the games are available online for $10 via Amazon (there's a list at cheapassgamer).

Meh, all the games I would want I already have. How are Virtua Quest, Final Fantasy I&II, and the Shaman King games?

[Sigma]

Virtua Quest is horrible, Final Fantasy I&II are excellent, Shaman King games look like they would be worth $10.


If anybody gets any extra copies of Digital Devil Saga 1 I'll buy it off you. Just PM me.
Good luck with that, that was easily the hardest game to find from the sale and most people don't want to get rid of it for a decent price. If you really want it try calling local Gamestop and EB stores and hunting down a new or used copy because it will be a very expensive game soon as will it's sequel which I have yet to buy.

[Chad Bonin]

I really really wished I found a copy of Resident Evil 4. Alas...

Either way, I previously purchased Dead Or Alive Ultimate, and last night got Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles, Mr. Driller: Drill Spirits, and Geist.

[William C. Maune]

I was able to get Feel the Magic and Baten Kaitos for my wife. (Hopefully I'll have time to play them some day)

[Artimus Gigan]

I picked up Xenosaga 2, Doom 3:CE, and SNK vs Capcom: Chaos, as well as the Snonic Double pack for the Gamecube, I'm curious on what was added to the GC versions whenc ompared to the DC versions, so 10 bucks for both games couldn't have gotten any better to appease my curiosity.

I saw no Resident Evil 4 though(even though I have the GC collector edition), no Digital Devil Saga(guy said they only had one in stock), and none of the relative big name games that were on the list. They just had a whole lotta junk really. Even the Gameboy games were just all Armored Liberty or CHampionship poker.

[Chad Bonin]

So, Will, you DID get a DS. Huh, I coulda gotten you Feel The Magic for $4.50 at Target...

[Duke]

I was able to get Baten Kaitos
For which system?

And for Virtua Quest, is it horrible as a part of Virtua Fighter (a series I never cared for) or just a horrible game altogether?

[Artimus Gigan]

Virtua Quest is just a bad game alltogether

[Duke]

Virtua Quest is just a bad game alltogether
Ah, OK. Because I had heard that it was somewhat decent if you weren't a die-hard VF fan.

[Peter Paltridge]

Once again, I'm too late. Everything on that list that is good is sold out on the site, and I'm not going to any actual TRU.

[William C. Maune]

So, Will, you DID get a DS.

Not quite. Sarah got a DS. I don't have one yet. (Although I do borrow hers because Fire Emblem looks better on it due to the brighter screen).


Huh, I coulda gotten you Feel The Magic for $4.50 at Target...

Ah, dang. Oh well, at least it's better than the $20 most place around here are selling it for.


For which system

GameCube.

[Noukon]

I'm curious on what was added to the GC versions whenc ompared to the DC versions, so 10 bucks for both games couldn't have gotten any better to appease my curiosity.

Aside from improved graphics, there isn't all that much. I'd still say they were worth it at that price, though. Having a second analog stick for the camera is nice. Both will also connect with the GBA Sonic games for a more complex Chao game than the DC versions offered.

SA1 sports a "mission mode" which I find to be kind of trite, but your mileage may vary. There is also an assortment of unlockable Game Gear games. You can play as Metal Sonic if you get all of the emblems, as well (I have yet to finish this, though).

SA2's main enhancement is a robust multiplayer mode.

[email2003]

Dudes, I work at TRU in the R Zone and I bought Tekken 5 and Killer 7 for $9.99 each.

Theres some other good games like:

PS2:

Silent Hill 4
The Getaway
Transformers
Outlaw Golf 2,
DragonBall Z Sagas
Viewtiful Joe 1 & 2
Virtual Quest
KillZone
Rumble RosesXBOX:

Doom 3
RobocopNot much Gamecube, GameBoy Advance or DS games that were part of the sale.

[Conekiller]

I managed to score a Wario Ware GCN for the sale! sweet!

[Duke]

Well, my TRU was cleaned out. The only GBA game on clearence was F-Zero GP Legend (which I don't care about) and the only GCN games there were Batman Vengeance (which I didn't care for), F-Zero GX (I already have), Medal of Honor, and Splinter Cell (neither of which I have any remote interest in).

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Well I doubt they'll have any still but I'm sure to look for Bomberman DS and Geist now.

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Heck yeah I found Geist. Now that's a sweet deal and I finally have a true FPS for Gamecube (I don't really count Metroid Prime 2).

[Artimus Gigan]

Yeah Metroid Prime is a different FPS


It's a first person scanner, you scan more than you shoot

[Andrew T. Hingson]

I consider it a First Person adventure game with shooting involved but you're right you do scan more than you shoot. Of course you don't have to scan everything, they just want you to.

[Artimus Gigan]

The only way to get the good ending is to scan the entire log book

and it doesn't cumulate like Final Fantasy X-2's %, so you can only get one play-thru to get good ending

[Chad Bonin]

I should be getting Resident Evil 4 in the mail (thanks!).

BTW, tell me the feasibility of this scheme.

Geist is $10 as TRU. Geist, trade-in at Gamestop, is $12 credit. If you trade in five games, you get an extra 30% in trade in. If you have the membership card, you save 10% on used items.

I buy five copies of Geist, spending $50. I trade them in to Gamestop for $60. Factor in the extra 30%, and that's like an extra $18. Effectively, I now have $78. Saving ten percent on used on items means I could spend roughly $90 on used items.

So, spend $50 and get $90? Is there any step I'm missing or is impossible?

no, alot of people do that

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Not a bad idea. I don't think my TRU has 5 left though. Nor do I want to spend 50 bucks even if I'll get more in the return.

You'd be even better off returning those sealed games to, say, Best Buy or CompUSA for $50 store credit apiece (both stores should take them).

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Wow, you're right.

I could take back my new Geist (which I haven't opened yet) and buy a game for my DS.

[Shift]

Yeah, um, what is TRU supposed to mean?

[Duke]

Yeah, um, what is TRU supposed to mean?
Toys R Us.

[Chad Bonin]

Sidenote- Verminium has let me know that you can't return multiples of the same game at once.

[Noukon]

Sidenote- Verminium has let me know that you can't return multiples of the same game at once.

Yeah, you're pretty limited when making returns without a receipt. CompUSA will give you store credit for them, Best Buy will do so only early in the year, and Target will let you exchange any game for another of equal value. If you have multiples of the same title, though, they'll get suspicious of you.

There are lots of $10 clearance games at TRU that still carry an MSRP of $50, though.

[Chad Bonin]

Let's just say I'm playing my 360 with a wireless controller thanks to Geist and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. The other copy of Geist will allow me to play, um... a game.

[Artimus Gigan]

You shoulda bought Doom CE

that goes for 60 in many places

[Chad Bonin]

How would that have netted me a difference? Geist for $10 gains me $50. Doom for $20 nets me $60. Either way I make $40.

Guilty Gear X2 #Reload (Xbox)

That's all they had that I really wanted. For GBA however, they must have had about 80 copies of FF1+2 Dawn of Souls and Golden Sun: The Lost Age.
