[josekortez]

I went to TRU this morning and found nothing. I picked the good green tag stuff clean at that location.

I think I'm my own worst enemy.

[roushimsx]

Just got back a little while ago

Got We Love Katamari and Second Sight for free, plus I finally got Virtua Quest (for only $20!) and Dark Cloud 2.

[Joelius]

This sale is on everything? Including new release? Because if this is the case, I may be getting Blitz the League and Shadow of the Collossus after all...

[Neil Koch]

It's for everything, the free game must be equal value to the other two (so you can't buy 2 Greatest Hits games and get an new $50 one for the free game).

They're also doing a buy one get one free for the Jakks plug and play games.

I was just about to post that about the plug and play stuff. :D

[roushimsx]

I really wish I had more money or else i'd go back tuesday and get Resident Evil 4, Shadow of the Huge Thing,and Sly 3 :(

LMAO "Shadow of the Huge Thing" now thats what they shoulda called it.

[GameSlaveGaz]

Why do people keep beating me to the punch in announcing these things while I'M the resident Toys R Us Employee Extraordinaire?!! It's not fair I tells ya!!!

I'll probably be blowing 1/2 my paycheck (although I shouldn't) this Saturday because I never pass up these sales (the reason I have so many PS2 Greatest Hits titles is last year we kept having 2 for $30 sales on the $20 games!!)

I'm also still holding out for Green Tag to go to 90%. I'll let you guys know when that happens (it'll go to 75% first.) Of course, nothing good will be left by then. There's hardly anything now!

Now when you say everything, you don't mean DS/PSP, do you? I know people have said otherwise, but I want to clarify this once and for all.

[Lothars]

hey is this valid for canada? or just in the US?

Unfortunately, it's only console games, no handhelds. Which is cheap! But we have a few GBA games on sale for $10 (crap no one wants like StrawBerry Shortcake and Cartoon Network Speedway.)

That's corporate for you, always a stipulation. Still, lots of great console games to be had

[Overbite]

I'm gonna get Soul Calibur III and 2 copies of Shadow of the Colossus and sell the extra shadow to my bro for 30, so I get my copy of shadow for only $10! wau!

Hey Gaz, if you could, ummm...find some games that got lost behind a shelf or something about the time that 90% sale hits, I'd ummm toss you a couple bones or something.

Dammit. I guess I'll have to get LCS some other way, then. Hrmph.

I'm thinking Soul Calibur, Shadow the Colossus and Stubbs the Zombie are on the table for me this Friday. :D

[youruglyclone]

I caved and bought online ( the warriors, dbz budokai tenkaichi and mario baseball)

probably hit a brick and mortar store to see if I can grab SC3 and 2 other games..

[Tamashii]

I ordered the following GameCube titles online a few days ago:

- Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
- Soulcalibur II
- Tales of Symphonia

[Joelius]

Anyone know if this is for this week only? or is it a two week thing. Cuz I don't quite have the money right now, and I really wanna hit up SHadow of Coll., Genji and RE4

[PentiumMMX]

...Does "Mega Man Battle Network 5" (Both versions) and "Pokemon LeafGreen" count as Crap nobody would play? (Hopefuly, considering I'm a Cheap Bastard)

What is going on with toysrus? the ones in canada dont have these sales. are the ones in the states closing? what is this green tag sale? Once they had a couple of games on sale. but it was a so called mistake. I got GTA 3 and vice city combo pack for 15$ can. as well as sonic mega collection for 9.99 can. and all of these were a so called mistake. the last sale was said to be in canada, but it wasnt.

Toys r Us has run this sale every year for a couple of years now.

[Griking]

Well, I bought the original Digital Devil Saga, Soul Calibur III and got Shadow of the Colossus free. I was going to get The Warriors but I figured I better pick up DDS while I was still able to find it new.

I just may go back again Friday when I get paid for three more games. BTW, the sale is until this Saturday according to the sales person I spoke to today.

[MarkMan]

Picked up some games today...

- Soul Calibur III
- Resident Evil
- Dora the Explorer: Journey to the Purple Planet

...

Don't ask...

I wanted to pick up Dora for the Gamecube, but it's not on the list, and supposedly only available online... So are you talking PS2 version, or did you swing something special somehow?

Bummer that you can only use the code once online, or they'd have had triple the size of my order. BTW, is there a limit in the stores, or is EVERY two you buy you get one free?

[filmbucket]

BTW, is there a limit in the stores, or is EVERY two you buy you get one free?

Every two you buy you get one free. So if the games you buy are: $50, $50, $40, $30, $20, $10

You will get the $40 and $10 games for free.

I've been looking for this game as well (partially because its an exclusive and partially because I want to buy a copy for my niece). Maybe I'll just bite the bullet and order it online.

Since when was there a Dora games for GameCube????

It just came out like a month ago or something. I've been looking around in TRU for it but haven't seen it; I found out about it from looking on amazon.com during a lunch break last month.

I was also thinking about picking up the Hello Kitty game (one for me and one for my niece) but apparently it sucks :(

I Wish!! But I can't even put them on hold that long for myself, and if I hide them, it'll fuck with the daily counts and cause all kinds of chaos. I'll let you know what we have left when we hit 90% though (that's after I'm done :))

[esquire]

Another thing TRU had going was buy $75 worth of items, and get a $10 gift card. I ended using that to my advantage as well and picked up the following:

Jade Empire LE (XBX)
Mech Assault 2 LE (XBX)
Dead Man's Hand (XBX)
Thief: Deadly Shadows (XBX)
Deus Ex: Invisible War (XBX)
Breakdown (XBX)
Robotech Invasion (XBX)
TRON 2.0 Killer App (XBX)
Street Fighter Anniversary Collection (PS2)
Viewtiful Joe (PS2)
Legacy of Kain Defiance (PS2)
Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution GH (PS2)
Hard Hitter Tennis (PS2)
Turok: Evolution (PS2) - yeah I know, but it was only $2.44
Prince of Persia Warrior Within (GCN)
ATV: Quad Power Racing 2 (GCN)
Pinball Hall of Fame: The Gottlieb Collection (GCN)
The Lord of the Rings - The Third Age (GBA)

All for just under $150. That's about $8.33 a game after taxes.

Now I have to see if anything is left at the KB stores.

[GameSlaveGaz]

Saturday, at the end of the sale, I got a modest set of games (I can't be spending a lot on games :( )
I got 6 games for $85:

Sonic Gems Collection
Sonic Heroes (GC)
Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
Tales of Symphonia
Ratchet: Up Your Arsenal
Sly 2: Band of Thieves

and since it was the beginning of the Big Book, I got a $10 Gift Card for spending over $75, so that'll be going towards another purchase in the future. :)

[esquire]

The sale is over, but I went back and got some stuff 50% off

Hitman Contracts (XBX) 9.99
Pool Paradise (PS2) 7.49
Guilty Gear X2 (XBX) 9.99
Ultimate Halo Companion Disc 2.49
Star Wars Rogue Squadron Rebel III Rebel Strike LE Preview Disc (GCN) 4.99

[josekortez]

I bought Digital Devil Saga, Xenosaga II and Guilty Gear Isuka during that sale. Unfortunately, I wonder when I will play these games considering that I am stuck in SMT: Nocturne and haven't even started the first Xenosaga yet...
