On all games? I can't think of anything I want at the moment, but it's tempting.

Some sale info for the Marketplace next week:
http://majornelson.com/archive/2011/03/03/comingsoontothexboxlivemarketplacemarchthird.aspx

To save you some time, the only real deal is Lara Croft: Guardian of Light for 600 points. I'm gonna pick that up, so if anyone wants to play through it with me and pound out some cheevos, just lemme know!

Yakuza 4 just came out (today, actually) and Best Buy has it on sale for $40.

If Amazon doesn't match, I might go pick it up later today.

demi · « **Reply #666 on:** March 15, 2011, 08:42:02 AM »

Still buying it at KMart for the free Yakuza 3.

$20 credit with Portal 2

PS3 version comes with Steam PC/Mac version. So $35 for a PS3/PC/Mac copy.
Or $35 for an X360 copy.

Dude, I dunno why you say this. It's not "$35 for a 360 copy"

This is still a really good deal for this game though.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #671 on:** March 24, 2011, 01:29:39 AM »

20% off on everything (including pre-orders) at Direct2Drive. Might end up getting Rift for $40

Mount & Blade Warband is only $7.50 too, I can get both for $45.

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #672 on:** March 24, 2011, 02:19:18 AM »

Not a huge deal but you get at $10 giftcard if you get Crysis 2 at Target.

Cravis · « **Reply #673 on:** March 24, 2011, 04:20:42 PM »

Gamefly is doing nightly deals again. Yesterday was Mafia II for 12.99. Today its Alan Wake and Metroid Other M for 12.99. They'll announce a new deal tonight.

The ridiculous shipping fee defeats the sale on the cheaper games, sadly.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is $15 on Stardock Impulse today.

Saw this on GAF, lots of nice sales on XBL this week:

Quote from: BigMack

Jesus Christ there's a ton of shit on sale this week that MS never even announced. On the dashboard, in the Extreme Shopping Sale Week promotion, there is:

Casual Arcade Games:
Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's Decade Duels - 400
A Kingdom for Keflings - 400
Crazy Taxi - 400
3D Ultra Mini Golf 2 - 400
Costume Quest - 600
Monkey Island 2 - 400
Faery: Legends of Avalon - 600
Gyromancer - 400

Core Arcade Games:
Doom 2 - 400
Quake Arena Arcade - 800
Zeit 2 - 400
After Burner Climax - 400
Alien Breed 1: Evolution - 400
Alien Breed 2: Assault - 400

Mirror's Edge: Pure Time Trials - 400

And some junk for your avatar.

Think I'll get Doom 2, Monkey Island 2, and maybe Costume Quest and the Mirror's Edge DLC since I need an excuse to go back and complete that game. Kinda interested in Gyromancer too, but it seems people didn't like that game very much for whatever reason. I'd get Crazy Taxi as well but I'm waiting for that Sega Dreamcast xbla disc to hit $15-$20. Plus Raskulls should be on sale soon for 400 pts as well.

Buying games I'll never play for half off

demi · « **Reply #679 on:** March 29, 2011, 08:00:53 AM »

Hot, was just telling myself last night I was waiting for Doom 2 to get a sale. Will buy at work today.

demi · « **Reply #680 on:** March 29, 2011, 08:58:19 AM »

Picked up Unbound Saga since it's only $2. Seems easy 200 as well.

Gyromancer is ok, but it's no Puzzle Quest. Good for the Sekito soundtrack at least.

iconoclast · « **Reply #681 on:** March 29, 2011, 09:00:23 AM »

I don't even know what a few of those games are, Unbound Saga included. Gonna try some demos later on. I think I read that Yugioh is pretty good, but since I despise Yugioh I will pass regardless.

After Burner Climax

Friday's XBL deals:

New Vegas Dead Money - 400
Comic Jumper - 400
Deadliest Warrior - 200
Fable 3 Understone - 400

iconoclast · « **Reply #687 on:** March 29, 2011, 12:50:08 PM »

I hope Comic Jumper is as funny as everyone says it is. Last thing I need is a shitty run and gun that's as "funny" as Family Guy or something.

chronovore · « **Reply #693 on:** March 29, 2011, 07:14:51 PM »

Grabbed Unbound Saga, because I had already been half-interested in it and didn't even know it had come out. The art looks like Ranxerox.

Probably going to get Darwinia+ as well. Waffling on Mini-Golf and Kelflings. The latter had an inexplicably poor framerate for a game with almost NOTHING going on onscreen.

demi · « **Reply #694 on:** April 01, 2011, 07:47:14 AM »

There are so many hot deals on my extensive software library that you'd be CRAZY not to ask me if i have <game> at <reasonable price> !!!!

Well, since you asked. Here's the stuff I was planning on picking up used next time in Japan:

X360-J/Death Smiles 2
PS3/Hokuto Musou (or International)
PS3/Atelier Totori
PS3/Ar Tonelico 3
PS2/Ar Tonelico 1
PS2/Ar Tonelico 2
PS2/Higurashi no naku koro ni append disc
DS/Super Robot Taisen OG Saga Mugen no Frontier Exceed
DS/Layton 4
PSP/Ryu ga Gotoku Kurohyou
PSP/Valkyria Chronicles 3

I'm guessing most of that stuff is too animu or new so you probably aren't selling any of those, though.

Raban · « **Reply #709 on:** April 03, 2011, 12:15:10 AM »

You could've gone to another video game distributor like Best Buy or Wal Mart and they would've price matched Gamestop's offer if you had the ad.
