Silent Hill: Homecoming on 360 worth it?

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #3 on:** April 23, 2009, 10:29:29 PM »

Watch them not have crap actually in the stores.

I'd get Operation: Darkness, Silent Hill: Homecoming, and Too Human for that price though.

Bildi · « **Reply #4 on:** April 23, 2009, 10:34:14 PM »

Jesus, I can see why they're on sale.

PURE is cool though.

But really, a lot of those games are weak

I would, if I hadn't bought them all already, get-

007 Quantum of Solace
Bourne Conspiracy
Devil May Cry 4
Infinite Undiscovery
Operation Darkness
Silent Hill: Homecoming
Soul Calibur 4
Too Human

Blockbuster is also cleaning out their old inventory. The prices are decent, about $10 less for their used games than anywhere else.

Pure is awesome period. I bought it at 30 and never regretted it.

Maybe picking up Infinite Undiscovery, Too Human, and Unreal Tournament and TNA impact. Mostly garbage. And i already had Too Human but cant pass on those prices hope i can find them on sunday/monday

Also picking up GTA DS at 20 bucks.

I think I'll get TNA and 007. Short games that won't take long.

Beezy · « **Reply #16 on:** April 23, 2009, 11:31:19 PM »

Infinite Undiscovery
Soul Calibur 4
Pure
Too Human

I'm thinking about getting 2 or 3 of these if my Best Buy has them.

If you use a guide (missable items, etc) you can get like 950+

Still requires a bit of time though.

I only have like 654, since I was going to clean the rest up as I do Hard / Infinity

bork · « **Reply #18 on:** April 23, 2009, 11:49:20 PM »

Might get Silent Hill Homecoming and maybe Pure.

There are a lot of decent-to-good games on that

archie4208 · « **Reply #20 on:** April 24, 2009, 12:06:40 AM »

Condemned 2
Devil May Cry 4
Pure
Rock Revolution
Silent Hill: Homecoming

Interested in those games.

All I'm gonna say is I hope the media employees at your Best Buy stores aren't nerds. My store has 1 copy of Too Human and 1 copy of Operation Darkness. Want to know where they're at? Mwahahahahahaha! You'll never find them (until I buy them on Sunday)!

Sure. It's pretty shallow and gets old fast and there's no 1p mode worth caring about, but it looks nice and is fun for a while with friends.

Absolutely, especially for $10. It's shallow like Bebpo said (but still much better than SC3), but it's fun as hell and very accessable. The create-a-character mode actually rocks too; it's simplified from SC3 (no more unique styles), but is essentially the first custom character mode in any fighter where you can make characters that actually look as good as the original ones do.

Online is also very good. I played the hell out of this last summer/fall.

chronovore · « **Reply #30 on:** April 24, 2009, 04:26:11 AM »

Hah, I think I just paid 12.99 for Fracture during my vacation/shopping trip. However, I'ma get PURE. That demo sold me, but I wasn't up for US$60 for it.

Definately getting Silent Hill. Besides Alone in the Dark, what's the easiest 1000 achievement game?

demi · « **Reply #32 on:** April 24, 2009, 12:37:13 PM »

Bourne Conspiracy is an easy 1000
Operation Darkness is too, its a SRPG so you just gotta take your time

My manager/supervisor was a dick and told one of the employees in Product Processing to put all the games we had in the back out on the floor. I went ahead and bought Too Human and Operation Darkness today since they were the last copies we had left of them and I'm planning on price matching them Sunday. I hid my copies of Infinite Undiscovery and Pure in a filing cabinet so I'll still get those Sunday. Dicks.

They appear to be sold out online.

The only games my local BB has that I'm interested in are Pure and Silent Hill Homecoming. Is that worth driving a total of 2 hours for a round trip to buy them?

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #42 on:** April 26, 2009, 10:55:03 AM »

I'm gonna price match these games at Sears and get em for cheaper (they do 10% of the difference)

Go to Bestbuy.com and look at the ad before you head to sears. The ad says 100 of games for $10, but only lists about 15-20.

Wow some fat ebay seller douchebag made off with literally a pallet of Soul Calibur IV games when I came in. Told him to fuck off and get a real job. Needless to say, everything I wanted to buy was all gone.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #47 on:** April 26, 2009, 03:01:09 PM »

a pallet?

The values of all these games will be so depleted by tonight. every distinguished mentally-challenged fellow in the world will be listing these games on amazon/ebay. Same thing happens every month with Sears clearance. The games end up being listed for little more than the price they were bought for as idiots to try to make $2 profit on shipping.

soul calibur is already down to $16.99 on amazon

Didn't bother going this morning and am not sure if it's worth a look at this point-- everything good is probably gone already.

FWIW, the only time I every rainchecked a game from Best Buy, it was when NG2 was selling for $10. By the time I got the rain check followup (like a month later), it was back to regular price.

siamesedreamer · « **Reply #53 on:** April 26, 2009, 04:44:49 PM »

My BB was pretty much cleaned out of everything good. :'(

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #54 on:** April 26, 2009, 04:59:12 PM »

sucks to hear other people saying their stores are cleaned out.

I just drove to two stores checking out PCs for my folks and snagged such great hits as:

--Too Human
--SH: Homecoming
--Infinite Undiscovery
--Soul Calibur 4

Summer of mediocre gaming, here I come!

I might pick up DMC4 if I can find it, but I've played through Normal and Spartan twice each, as well as a ton of Bloody Palace...but that was on PC, so I'd have to do it all again :\

Gay. Anyway, I just got back. All they had was one copy of Operation of Darkness. I left the store and didn't bother trying to get a raincheck. It's times like this that I wish that I didn't live in a big city. $:-\$

Beezy · « **Reply #57 on:** April 26, 2009, 05:07:35 PM »

I didn't even see any $9.99 price displays for Infinite Undiscovery or Soul Calibur IV. All I saw that I gave a fuck about was Pure and Condemned 2, but ofcourse they were gone by the time I got there. I almost bought The Last Remnant for $40 out of anger, but I told myself to just leave.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #58 on:** April 26, 2009, 05:09:15 PM »

If anyone was looking for Too Human, I still have a copy that I will probably never pick up again. Send me a pm
