    Default Metal Arms (XBOX) at Best Buy for $5

    Hope this hasn't been posted already (did a quick search and didn't find anything), but last night I found and bought Metal Arms: Glitch In The System for $5 (well, $4.99) at Best Buy. Don't know if that's just a local price, though. It seems like a fun game, certainly worth $5.

    OK, bye!

    There are a TON of games at Best Buy for $4.99. Gamespot had a complete list earlier in the day. Everything has been sold out online, but stores still have games.

    Well, I'm tempted to go but the problem is the closest Best Buy to me is at least a half-hour drive away. That's a long way to go (especially with gas over $2 a gallon now) on a whim...especially since they may not have much I would be interested in. At least I already have that game...it arrived Saturday on an online order from Best Buy. Of course, I could go up and, if I don't find anything worth buying, I could still take in Shrek 2 or something at the first-rate multi-plex that's up that way...

    If anyone can find me a Metal Arms Xbox for $5 extra, I will be eternally grateful. My Best Buy was WIPED OUT.

    Anyone know if there are similar deals on GameCube games? Sure could use a few of 'em right now...

    If I do go and they have Metal Arms, perhaps I'll pick up a couple and I'll offer you one of them, portnoyd. I may pick up some extras of others if they have any other really good games at low prices. Of course, I still am unsure as to whether I will go or not. I'll let you know tomorrow...

    If there's any chance someone could find me a new copy of Final Fantasy Origins at $5, that would rule of you I would pay for all costs + shipping and a bit for your legwork, of course.

    My BB had crap as usual...I did pick up Freedom Fighters and Robotech both for Xbox though. Those seemed like the only decent titles they had left

    I was at Best Buy yesterday looking for an xbox game and the salesguy didn't even mention the $4.99 sale. They didn't seem to have too much in stock, but I wonder if it's worth a trip back.

    Ah! Wish I knew! Glad I got lucky happening to be there and picking up Metal Arms. Maybe I'll go back and see if I missed anything else.

    If anyone sees extra copies of Warioware, Golden Sun 2, and Simcity 2000 for GBA I'll pay you for them + shipping. PM me if you can help me out.

    I went to one of my BBs today...still had some games left, none of the big name titles, but I did get:

    GBA - Mega Man Battle Network 3 : Blue & White
    GC - Mega Man Network Transmission
    PS2 - Parappa The Rapper 2
    PS1 - Dirt Jockey

    I left behind a couple games I may go get tomorrow, but before work, I'm going to go check on another Best Buy... I really want Wario World.

    Also, I wish I could still find one or two of the 99 cent games...

    Bah. Went to mine today, nothing. Still had some of those dividers with the low prices, but not ONE of those cheap-ass games left. Probably not worth a half-hour drive for most people...

    I'm heading that way on Friday anyway, but I doubt there's anything there NOW let alone in three days. Sad. I always seem to miss out.

    I hit up one of the Best Buys close to me and they had NOTHING. All of the title placards that said $4.99 were empty. There are a couple of other stores in higher-traffic areas, but I won't bother since they're most likely cleaned out too. I really wanted Wario World and RPG Maker 2...

    As soon as the word got out, the vultures were out in force, buying it all up for resale. Just watch Ebay, just like after that Circuit City sale not too long ago.

    Well, I woke up early (hard to sleep when a big furry cat is licking your face telling you to get up and feed it) so I will probably go ahead up there. I'm one of those that has to drive about a half-hour to get to Best Buy. Luckily, there's a number of other places up there that interest me (PetSmart, Barnes & Noble, a multi-plex) so if I don't find any games I want, it won't be a totally wasted trip...

    I'm going up to Best Buy today to buy the new Slipknot album (bring on the Slipknot bashers! ). So if there aren't any cheap games there, at least I won't go home empty handed. And there's a pawn a few blocks away that I've made some decent finds at, so I'll probably go there too.

    Just got back from my local BB (endured a flat tire to get there too), and all they had for $4.99 (other than stupid code disks) was one copy of Powderpuff Girls for PS2. So yeah, mine's been gutted too.

    If anyone can hook me up with Romance of The Three Kingdoms VIII (PS2), Unlimited Saga (PS2), Syberia (Xbox), Beyond Good & Evil (GCN), Wario World (GCN), or Sim City 2000 (GBA) for the BB price it'd be MUCH appreciated.

    Damn, I got quite a few of the $5 games, but you got the 3 games that I was hoping to find...(see my list on the trades page).
