Sonic Adventure DX for the Gamecube finally dropped to $19.99 at EB Games. It's worth picking up just for the complete collection of Sonic Game Gear games emulated within.

This deal is both available online and instore.

GameInformer reports that ESPN NFL 2k5 will retail @ a budget price of $19.99 whenever it is supposed to come out.

Thats one hell of a way to compete against Madden 2005!  Although it leads me to think the game won't be that great though, I mean $19.99 is very cheap, heck i am surprised when games release at $39.99 like viewitiful joe did.

Gamestop.com now has GameCube Soul Calibur II for $14.99.

It's not a Player's Choice title either.  I bought my brand-new copy at the Lenox Square Mall Gamestop in Atlanta.  One of the employees there said that the $14.99 price was part of a sale that ended 06/13/2004 but I think that's wrong.  The price is still in effect on their website.

Regardless, $14.99 for Soul Calibur II is a joke.  I'm not even a fan of fighting games but I couldn't pass such a good game for that price.

Shaolin its probably a way to steal EA sports fan base cause its usually one or the another. This year will kinda be hard for ESPN since now PS2 and XBox versions of Madden have online now so it killled ESPNs Xbox live only sport game line up.

On the other hand 19.99 is great for a sports title since year and year their just small updates from last year and I think 20 bucks is enough for a upgrade unless its a super big overhaul(no new modes are not really overhauling).

I don't usually buy games under $50 because they don't seem like they would be very good. Even $40 doesn't cut it.

[WuTangTurtle]

Well Viewitiful Joe released at $39.99 so that isnt completely true.

there are lots of good games at low prices, you're wasting money if you only buy $50 games.  I just got 4 new very good games for 40 total used.  MGSTS is 39.99, harvest moon gc the same, etc etc.  

[BlackNMild2k1]

If you live in Europe you can pick up a Gamecube for £39.99

The-Magicbox.com

Oh really? I was a little weary about getting Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban because it was only $40.  I guess I'll get it then.  Thanks guys.

[joeamis]

uh we weren't saying every game under $50 is very good.  just that if you only buy games that cost $50 you're wasting your money.  there's many games released at $40 that are better than $50 games.  and if you buy used you can get 3-6 games for less than $50.

Anyone interested in getting MGS TS for $13 bucks?  It's possible, just goto Blockbuster and buy MGSTS for $26.99 used and a 2nd game to get 50% off the one that is of equal or lesser value.

[Pikkcuber]

Has anyone heard anything about a cheap look at EA's b-ball franchise its name eludes me now.  Im kinda looking for the 04 addition.  I saw NBA STREET 2 for 20 thats a good game but i beat it before and im looking for the real thing.  I almost bit on a used NBA 2k3 for like 15 at EB games the other day but i was going to wait to see if i could find a deal on a more current version, and EA is the only way to go for that.  If not dont know do you know when they usually drop on price. thanks

[Chode2234]

I just got NBA 2k3 at eb for like $8.00, its much better than its EA counterpart.  Its worth the outdated roster, IMO....

Oh yeah its called NBA Live XX where XX is the year of publishing, or the next year sometimes, its too confusing for me.

I picked up Skies of Arcadia for 17.99 USD at Gamestop for father's day weeked.  I didn't see it posted so I thought I'd say something.

Err ya I know that.  I just wasn't going to buy it at all.  The other Harry Potter games were good when I rented them so I decided that it won't hurt to get it.  I did get 250 dollars for my birthday.

I'm getting Skies of Arcadia Legends "New" for $19.99 USD at Gamestop, if nothing goes wrong. Then there's Yahoo's store that's has it New for $26.99 USD

Everywhere else it's either Used or they want too much for it $40+ some places I see it for $60. that's lunacris. especially for a used copy, I can't wait to play it, I heard goodthing's about it, and I never could find the DC version when it came out.

Does anybody know if the EB stores are doing that pre-order deal with Tales of Symphonia? when you pre order it you'll receive a mini poster and a free artbook with the Game?

I see that EB's website is, but when I asked the store, they don't know until it comes closer to the time of release if they will get anything like that. I hope they will, or I'll might end up getting it online. That's too good to pass up, and I love to draw.

 

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

Fry's Electronics in Santa Clara, CA had about 20 shelved copies of Skies of Arcadia for $19 each.  No wonder other places don't have it; this place hogged them all.

[MysticGohan24]

lol, where are the other 200,000 copies?

[odifiend]

Sorry I did get my Skies New.  I didn't specify.  Great game and a no brainer if you find it for $20.

[Davideo]

You beat me to it..  I'm not sure if C.C. is going to advertise this 4.99 clearance price, but it is already in effect.  Keep in mind it's for ALL consoles including GBA.   Best thing to do is go in there early and have an associate check prices as most stores won't have an official list based on their own stock till Tuesday.  I didn't check gaming age forums but they might have the list there already, too...      I bought Viewtiful Joe and Desert Strike Advanced for $4.99 each.

[Myxtika1 Azn]

They changed the pricing back their original prices already.  Apparently, they weren't supposed to have the sale for another 2 weeks.  They were planning on advertising it in the newspaper too.  Oh well, at least I got my ZooCube and RE: Code Veronica X for $5 each. muwhahahahahahahaha!!!!!11!
