Picked up a few things I had just rented in the past and decided to finally buy.

Mario Tennis
Silent Hill 2
Metal Gear Solid 2

How is Twisted Metal Black. I was tempted to get it for $14.99, but don't know much about it. Was it good? I haven't played one since the original.

If you liked the original, you will LOVE TM:B. It's really really fast, has a great co-op mode and is a ton of fun. I got it at BB for $19.99 and it was TOTALLY worth it. It's a great game.

It may be interesting to note that my local Blockbuster had Twisted Metal for $29.99 while another Blockbuster had several copies of Twisted Metal, some for $29.99 and a couple for $19.99.

Anyone know how long this promotion lasts? For some reason I was thinking it ended the 28th.

*Hoping it lasts long enough for Final Fantasy X to make it Previously Played status*

Last week, I picked up:

Devil May Cry
Smackdown: Just Bring It
Metal Gear Solid 2

I was pretty happy cuz I had just paid full price for DMC and MGS2 at Best Buy over the holiday. Luckily I had been so busy that I hadn't opened them yet - so back they went - saving me almost $50.

I may go back for Tony Hawk 3, Nascar Heat, or NBA Live 2002.

With the 25% off - it's a good way to get fairly recent games for cheap.

On a side note: speaking of Blockbuster - a game to avoid even if you only had to pay one dollar for: NCAA March Madness 2002. I used a free rental at BB to try it, and still think I overpaid

Yep.. I picked up Jak & Dexter..

The manager at BB told me the sale goes until the 28th.

Hope to get a couple more good deals before then.
