Target/Sears/Best Buy/Toys R Us/Kmart Discount and Clearance Video Game Sales

[walrusmonger]

DoA4 was pretty cool. Super cheezy boss, great graphics, tight control, online was kind of whack (whoever hosted had a mega advantage).

I sold mine since I figured I'd pick it up again for cheap later on, maybe this will be that time... but I doubt my local targe will have any. Maybe I'll drive down and check.

I get it. But is it necessary to create this thread when a thread dealing with the same thing was created 2 or 3 days prior?

2, 3, or 4 simultaneous target clearance or sale threads is a detriment to the cause. Really. Especially when they deal with the same thing.

These threads need to be merged, just like the last 2 circuit city sale threads were.

I love these threads but TheDomesticInstitution summed up my feelings on this one:

Seriously, what's wrong with just bumping the one a page or two back with a heads up of your current finds on the clearance rack at your Target?

Yeah, these Target threads aren't very useful, since (as I pointed out in the other thread) each store does their own clearance. I don't think there needs to be a whole sub-forum, but I think a stickied "deals/sales/clearance" topic might be useful.

If the mods are looking at this, if we're talking about useless/overplayed threads, how about some sort of stickied "official Gamestop/EB bitching" thread as well?

Let the guy post what he wants to post. There are a lot of arses on this site, who always have to come trolling in on other peoples topics! If you dont like it, then do not post! But the dude was just trying to be helpful.

no dude, this goes beyond "let him post what he wants'

this is not 4chan, this is not newsgroups and gamefaqs (yet even those last two has some catagories/moderation). this is DP, and you cannot post whatever you want, wherever you want. that said, deal and such do not related to Modern Gaming discussion anymore than stuff posted in the ebay/B&S/"what its worth" subforums -- thats why they are separate.

I too like these threads -- I barely have the time to keep up with DP, and don't have the time to read CAG too. I've always thought there should be a "$20 and below" thread running that covers all kinds of finds like this, though I had pictured it more of a "this game just went 'Greatest Hits', better pick it up now if you don't want the crappy GH label". I know I missed a couple non-GH PSP and Gamecube games along the way.
