Basically, this depends on how cool you are with your local GS dudes, unfortunately.

Their sale dropped the game down to 30$, and GS sent out 10$ off coupons for people who bought Vitas (can be used by anyone, I think?), and it doesn't combine in the system to give you the 20$ off, but because the actual wording of the coupon (in the email) says nothing about not working with sales prices, I got one of the bros who works there to match it for me. I was going to grab ModNation Racers for 10$ as well but decided not to because my credit was getting a bit low. Here's the full list of games that you can get 10$ off of.

Reynolds · April 2012

I picked up FF13-2 and Bulletstorm today. I had a horrible time convincing the employees to give me the damn coupons. I bought FF first, no problem. Then I found Bulletstorm and went to a different register, where this employee told me the coupons didn't work unless you were a Reward member. Which amazed me, seeing as I had just used a coupon without signing up for jack.

Dirtyboy · April 2012

Amazon is also going to have a digital downloads (PC) Easter sale.

Confirmed games: Dragon Age, Mass Effect 3, Kingdoms of Amalur (no prices yet). Also, 55% off Crusader Kings II, Defenders of Ardania, and King Arthur II and base game of LA Noire for $4.99. More games will be added before sale starts.

Watch this forum thread for updates

Variable · April 2012

mk komplete for $30 feels like an acceptable price.

been waiting for it so I can get it on ps3, 360 controller is terrible and online is so bad that it doesn't matter.

Corpekata · April 2012

Serious Sam 2 is 4.00 USD over at Gamersgate. Steamworks: http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-SS2/serious-sam-2?caff=3884871

They also have the other SS games on sale, but this is the notable one really given the other ones have more frequently hit much cheaper on Steam.

SkyTurnsRed · April 2012

I'm about to buy a PS3, but I'd like to get a nice deal...

"Nice" is up for debate, but there's this:

http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-3-320GB-System/dp/B003VUO6LU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1333391303&sr=8-3

The 160GB version is also on sale at Amazon... a whole four cents cheaper!

Custom Special · April 2012

Thanks @Kaseius, I will certainly be picking up Arkham City on my way home with my phone coupon (which they better accept or NO DICE).

Skull2185 · April 2012

I feel comfortable purchasing Syndicate for $40. So, I purchased Syndicate for $40.

I'm sorry, I probably should've mentioned it in the Draw Something thread (I've been sick!), I uninstalled it from my phone :c

All my games kept glitching or getting wiped, so I said "to heck with it!"

The_Spaniard · April 2012

So is Unit 13 worth the 20 bones?

Kaseius · April 2012

Not sure -- haven't tried mine yet.

Amazon has pricematched some stuff!

Call of Duty MW3 PS3/360 35$ :!:

Catherine PS3/360 30$

Batman Arkham City 30$ (2 days left to get it for 10$ at Bestbuy w/ their coupon)

SSX PS3/360 30$

Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning PS3/360/PC 40$

Grand Theft Auto 4 Complete PS3/360 20$ (backorder)

and today's deal of the day is:

Xbox Live Gold 3 month card - 15$

mxmarks · April 2012

Grabbed SSX and Arkham City for a total of $40.

Havent even finished Asylum yet but figured Ill never find Arkham City cheaper so take the plunge now.

It's rather unfortunate though because I don't see any way to trick off of mountains with avalanches in any other games I own, so they will never be played again.

Holy SHIT SSX is fun.

Skull2185 · April 2012

Yes, SR3 is Steam.

Is The Darkness II Steamworks, and is it worth it at $12.49?

Not sure about steamworks, but probably yes on that.

If the demo is any indication, I would say that The Darkness II is more than worth $12.49.

Beltaine · April 2012

I'd say Darkness 2 is worth $12.50.

Not sure on the Steamworks.

initiatefailure · April 2012

pretty sure it activates on steam

Vegan · April 2012

If it's Steamworks, the Amazon summary will mention that it requires Steam.

Kaseius · April 2012

GameStop started a b2g1 free on all used games today, for those of you who are like me and want to pick up 6 titles from a year or two ago.

initiatefailure · April 2012

Hmm I probably would but I'm running into a problem that I never had during the previous generation. Trading in games just doesn't seem worth it most of the time anymore and I'm running out of space because i currently only have a shared book/dvd/ps2/ps3/blu-ray case with 3 shelves on it.

Lindsey Lohan · April 2012

If it weren't for PAX this weekend I'd be b2g1 for a few PS3 games for my new console, but gotta save that spending money. As a side note - has anyone here tried Gamefly? I did a buy 1 get 1 month free deal, just sent my first games back Friday 3/30 in the morning and they still aren't showing them received. Am I just spoiled from Netflix or does that seem like a long time just to have them receive them?

I'm probably not renewing if a round trip from sending a game off to getting the new one takes a week and a half or more.

Kaseius · April 2012

I'm almost out of space as well -- I've got about a hundred ps2 games stacked in my closet because my book shelf has no room between ps3/vita/DS/PSP/bluray

Skull2185 · April 2012

If you can bear to part with game cases, big ol CD albums are great space savers for games.

Form of Monkey! · April 2012

That L.A. Noire is easily worth 499 of your pennies. It was a landmark game with a very compelling storyline. One should play that if they haven't already.

For me, selling games isn't necessarily about the money. There are some games that are great, but just lack any kind of replay value. Sure, I could keep them, but I probably won't play them again. Why not get $5-10 bucks, clear out a spot on the shelf, and give someone else an opportunity to enjoy the game?

Gamefly can be really bad if you're not close to a distribution center. Results vary wildly based on where you live.
