Yea the article said they have been testing it for a year now in select stores.

Where you in one of the testbeds? I only say this because I've read this awhile back and still don't see used games locally, and I'm not far from their HQ. Maybe they'll add it soon as I'm not super excited but it's something different.

The prices can't be much worse than a GS right? Looking foward to checking this out... a little.

Same thing Media Play tried shortly before they kicked the bucket.

It's been nice knowing you CC.

My local CC is generally overpriced with games...but they do have some oldies that are harder to find elsewhere. Case in point is Ridge Racer 7 (PS3). Ok, the game isn't THAT old, but it is not normally carried in most places around me (new that is), and I did find it there for $39.99. Then, found it again at a Walmart for $29.99. Same went for some BR movies I saw. $35 there, same movies were $25 at Best Buy. I am not sure why this is, but the overpricing has got to be hurting CC's sales. Maybe they think going used is the way to go.....heh.
