What 3 games do you plan on getting from the TRU deal?

Check out this thread for info: http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=322694

If it's true and it happens... what 3 games you gonna get?

I'm going to go with a barrage of XBL games:

Top Spin, Crimson Skies, & Amped 2. THU is tempting, but unless there is something revolutionary about it, I can probably live without it.

If this ends up being true and being the week of the 27th for the PS2/Xbox deal, it's the best possible timing. All 3 of the games I want (Castlevania: LOI, SSX 3, and TMNT) come out on the 21st. I may go crazy and pick up Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004, ESPN NBA Basketball, and RPG Maker 2 as my second set.

Top Spin, Links, THUG, XBOX Music Mixer, and if preorders count, I'll just deposit my paycheck into TRU's bank account.

No Crimson Skies?

young: THU = Tony Hawk Underground (last I checked Underground is one word, but I guess "THUG" is a cooler acronym... )

Should I? I'm on the fence so if you push hard enough... I'm hooked on Live and am always looking for new games.

Getting a little off topic, but yeah it's supposed to be a great LIVE game and since Links is on your list and not out until the 2nd week of Nov you coud substitute it.

I think I remember preordering one of the Grand Theft Auto games during one of these Toys R Us sales a while back. Right now, I'm thinking about

Jak 2
Gladius
Top Spin

But if preorders are accepted, I'll go in for these, also:

Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando
LOTR: Return of the King
and... something else.

If Preorders arent accecpted, I'll get Jak 2.. if Preorders are accepted, then I'd replace Jak 2 with Socom 2.
