HOT $9.99 PS2 Deals at EBGames.com - FFX-2/kill.switch/Rising Sun + more
Snatched this from CAG - great list of games at only $9.99!

Buy Final Fantasy X-2, get free shipping with the code "FREE2DAY"

Why not add these to your cart and get free shipping on the whole thing? Or... add some cheap $2 game to your cart and apply the PPLAY15 & SAVER codes for 15% off and free shipping.

Alias (PS2) $9.99
Kill.Switch (PS2) $9.99
Downhill Domination (PS2) $9.99
MOH: Rising Sun (PS2) $9.99
Max Payne 2 (PS2) $9.99
Legacy of Kain: Defiance (PS2) $9.99

Good luck - some of these seem to be selling out as we speak...

I had FFX2 but cancelled my order to use the free 2 day shipping with ffx2. When I went to reorder I lost it, I got too greedy. Oh well I don't really like Final Fantasy games anyways. There is a list at cheapassgamer.com of a lot more games.

I got
Alias $9.99
Red Faction $7.99
Activision Anthology $7.99
Primal $9.99
Kill. Switch $9.99
Max Payne 2 $9.99
Legacy of Kain Defiance $9.99

I really wanted FFX2, but I couldn't pass up:

Red Faction $7.99
Aggressive Inline $4.99
Activision Anthology $7.99
Legacy of Kain: Defiance $9.99
Rogue Ops $6.99 (regular price, but I was ordering anyway)
Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne $9.99

Between this and the TRU clearance, I'm never going to catch up.

cheap AND greedy!

i think ebgames tends to restock so people should probably check every once in a while.

If the past is any indication there is a chance these will go down again later today.

I managed to get the following titles:


Final Fantasy X-2
Medal of Honor: Rising Sun
Downhill Domination
Kill.Switch
Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy (while it was $4.99 - it's since gone up to $9.99)

I don't really understand these "sales" that seem to only last a couple of hours and are completely unadvertised. I find it hard to believe they're catering to the manic cheapass game buyer that scours the site daily for price drops - isn't that a pretty small market?

(and nobody scream PRICE ERROR because they seem to be shipping these babies!)

not sure what the reasoning is. frankly, i suspect that there is none as i think ebgames corporate is run by monkeys.

i'd pay more for xbox versions of a lot of those games though. (obviously, ffx-2 being a ps2 exclusive, is an exception).

as noted already, it seems like they sort of restock/re-lower the prices.

It figures they'd lower the prices again while I was at work. I love how they block certain sites, like ebgames/gamestop, cartoon network, etc... but not other sites like amazon and shockwave.

So I take it that the B&Ms' pricing is different?
