I just went to gamestop to check out that deal. Its kinda BS imo, only on a few select games and hell they didnt have much of the games. The only too i like was mw2 which was only 10 dollars off the real price and AC2 for 30. I did get ac2 for that price and they only had 2 copys of it so i bought one. To me the sale really isnt that great. I thought i would be on more games they what they got but thats not the case.

all the gs's by me were already selling blazblue for like $20 or 30. thats a good pick up. id still pay full price for it. probably the best fighter on the ps3 imo.

out of what they have...

bayonetta, ac2, fallout, and mw are the only ones that interest me.

the sale said hot NEW titles on sale. yea, so much for that.

I went today and picked up - Disgaea 3, Blazblue, COD: World at War. All for $19.99 each. The only downside is because I went brick and mortar, all three of them were opened and with sale stickers right on the case even though they are "new". I asked for sealed copies but apparantly they still do this on every game in their inventory, game is stored in a sleeve and they put it in the case when they sell it to you. Dumb@$$ gamestop. Oh well, still a decent deal.

I came back from my local Gamestop an hr ago as i write this and left disappointed. I give them credit for having recent releases like Bayonetta and AC2 for $30, but one has to wonder how they decide which games should be part of the promotion. Also i didnt like the PSP choices.

I did get AC2 for 30 dollars but like some have said the sale is a joke and a big disappointment.

Just bought the first modern warfare today. Pretty good deal at $20 considering it was still selling for $40 beforehand.

I get that weekly ad to my inbox too... is that just an offer in the States?
I'm pretty sure the Gamestop.ca ad was different.

Here's the link:http://www.gamestop.ca/gs/weeklyad/default.aspx

If so, that is VERY disappointing. :(

I would probably pick up Heavenly Sword and Lair for cheap... I've always wanted to try those.

It has probably been stated many times in this thread already but it's UP TO 50%... just like any kind of sale.. whether it's a videogame store or a shopping mall.. That means 1%-50%... it's " UP TO." And not all games will be featured on this sale... ONLY SELECTED videogames.. Check the website for a list.

If you have some extra pocket change and you're interested in something new or old on the market, I would go down there anywhere, or shop online. I am 99.9% sure..games like God of War 3, Heavy Rain, FF13 will not be on the sale.... Come on guys, get real. Most of the sales will be on old games.. and they'll probably set a few NEW games (less than 5) at 20-50% off. I'm willing to bet anything on it. Knowing Gamestop, and most retailers.. that would be more than likely.

I wouldn't hold my breath. Look for Buy 2 pre-owned games, get 1 free promotions, or buy 1 get 1 free promotions, when they come around the corner. Those promos are far better. But like I said, take this opportunity, go down there to Gamestop retailer, perhaps, and check it out. Promos vary store to store, versus online. But GENERALLY speaking, a few games will be half off, or at a high percentage off the price tag.

I was thinking of picking up Blazblue or Prototype. I've already got the psp version of Blazblue so I think I'm good on that, but how's prototype anyone? Is it better than inFamous?

But they were at that price before.. the sale.. =/ Even less with an edge card if you buy em pre-owned. $18 bucks a piece. Some deals are good like Prototype if you're still interested in that game.. and Assassin's Creed 2.

Is it worth it for Prototype? $20? I'm still on the fence. The biggest turn off are the bland graphics, especially the buildings, landscape, and scenic parts. Is it true? Worst than GTA IV and other sandbox games?

They're both good games, I don't understand why MGS4 was "on sale" seeing as yeah it was $20 to begin with I believe. I bought the collector's edition for $30.

Eh, I think I'm going to skip prototype, thanks guys, I wish there was more games on sale but Modern Warfare is pretty good!

I actually just got a PS3 a couple of days ago (finally found on on eBay since I couldn't find one locally for weeks) so I picked up Metal Gear Solid 4, Call of Duty: World at War & Modern Warfare 2 and I've got Assassin's Creed 2 and Fallout 3 on hold at a store a little further from my house since the one closest to me was out of them already. I'll go pick them up tomorrow. I mean, I got 5 great games (in my opinion) for right around $150. Not a bad deal. I would like to have seen Uncharted 2, Little Big Planet and/or Borderlands on the table as well. I had Borderlands for 360, but most of my friends are on PS3 and I'd like to pick it up for a little online multiplayer. Alas, it is what it is. We all know how GameStop is about making money. Just roll with it and get what you can when you can. They'll knock the prices of some of the other ones down this summer I bet, and probably again in the fall a few months before Christmas season. It's how they do. Gotta boost sales when sales are down and this is the down period for a lot of retailers. Hell, I got such a good deal on the 5 I picked up (3 actually, 2 more tomorrow) that I bought Heavy Rain and Just Cause 2 because I had some cash left over. It's a good way to get people into the store to buy stuff (on sale, or not).

Well, unless you got free shipping you didn't really get a great deal at all. GameStop has it for $29.99 and if you use store credit they don't charge you tax. Even if you do have to pay tax on it, it would only be about $3 or less so you still overpaid by a couple bucks. No worry, I'm sure as it's apparently a great game. $32 vs. $35 isn't a deal breaker for any game in my opinion.

Picked up Disgaea 3, Prototype, X-Men Origins, and COD WaW. Thinking about getting Sacred 2 and Wolfenstein.

Good deals though.

GameDays ends April 25th. (gives me plenty of time to think about whether or not I REALLY want Disgaea 3). As for the finer points of Bayonetta. Attractive female character that gets naked when she casts certain spells and you can fight with guns or with her hair. I ended up getting Prototype yesterday. Had to deal with annoying little kids in the store though. I think some parents use Gamestop as a babysitter or something.
