I'm real hesitant to recommend this based on the same deal for Panzor Dragoon a couple of weeks back that everyone ordered, but no one received because of cancellations.

Also on sale for $9.99:

Shinobi (PS2)
Red Faction II (PS2)
World Rally Championship (PS2)
Twisted Metal Black (PS2)
Die Hard: Vendetta (GC)
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance (GC)
Madden NFL 2003 (GC)
SSX Tricky (GC)
MLB Slugfest 20-03 (GC)

You'll be safer scouring your local Best Buy for the titles, but it's worth a shot online. The worst they can do is say it's on backorder once your order it & later cancel your order & not tell you about it. :)

Be sure to use your Best Buy Bucks from McDonalds!

Fug.

Again, I paid 45$ for many of these titles.

I apparently fail.

Yep, I already ordered it, and they already notified me of backorder, possibly shipping out on 11/11 (I suppose we'll see)

Side note, how is baldurs gate on the GC? I heard it sucked compared to the PS2 version, having not played either, would it be worth it, or should I just grab the PS2 version when I see it.

Reviews for Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance for the GCN say that it has various issues with slowness, bad textures, etc. It received lower marks (by 20% or like 2 points, if I remember correctly - maybe more like 1.5 points on a scale of 1-10) than the PS2 version.

I saw that for $10, too, but decided against it based on the Gamespy and Gamespot reviews. I went with the PS2 version for $20.

Shinobi's great, but maybe not deserving of $50. Once again, my love for video games overrules my tendency to get stingy with cash. Why didn't I wait? :(

If you go to McDonald's & get either a Large or Super Size Fry, you get the two Monopoly pieces as well as a Best Buy Buck. There's a chance of getting $1, $5 or $20 (I think those are the denominations), but I've only gotten the $1.

You can then use that coupon for any in-store or online purchase. So that makes ordering one of these games only $8.99.

Is this the Panzer that's $12.99?

I think that's the music from the game or something. If not, do you have a direct link to the Xbox Panzer?

My local McDonalds ran out... I have 2, but BB isn't recognizing one of them. I tried switching "l"'s for "1"'s, and "o"'s for "0"'s, but it didn't work :o
