If I get a chance today, I might swing by the Wal-Mart in Fair Lakes to see if they any titles on closeout.

By the way, I posted my wantlist earlier, but didn't post a thanks for looking. So, thanks for looking, even if I don't get anything out of it! Appreciate the heads up on the deal, and making a special trip for a fellow DVDTalker.

I went to the Sterling store today, and found a few. Someone had nicely tried to organize the titles by console (primalurg?) and I fixed the few that others had put out of order. It was much easier to look once they were all in order by console with the titles facing out. The cache had been picked thru a lot, it was maybe half the size as when I orginally found it.
I found:
Amped 2 xbox (first dibs go to edstein)
Fatal Frame xbox (first dibs to msdmoney)
Fatal Frame 2 xbox (first dibs to liquid death)
Only 1 copy of each of those I'm afraid, although I might eventually decide to sell my copies. I think I looked at the want lists correctly and put these in the right order, sorry I couldn't find more.
Lots of Catwoman and Drake were left. I wanted another Raze's Hell for system link play but it was gone

Vbellino,
I might decide to part with my copies of the 2 games you requested, and you would be next up for both. I'm afraid that I have no idea when I'll get around to actually opening and playing them, it may be a couple/few months. But I have a good memory and will give you first crack at them if I decide to part with them.
Same goes for the other games and people who requested them.
And maybe we'll all get lucky and other Wal-Marts will follow suit on these great prices.

Well you might want to crack open Metal Arms and give it a shot. It was a fun game but it had issues with tearing on the screen and was the only game i have ever played that made me seriously motion sick (only due to the tearing). It was a shame though because what i played of it was fun and quirky.

nodoubt,
You were right. Nothing at the Fair Lakes store. I look all over thinking it might be stashed at the end of a shelf (like in Sterling). No luck.
The Sterling store was already pretty picked over when I stopped by on Tues. I'll keep an eye out on the bin in Sterling. They may put more stuff in it from time to time. I talked to one of the workers there and he said they use it to clear out old stock.

Trevor,
I was at the sterling store last night (the one next to sams club and lowes right) I could not find a bin at all. All I found was a bin of dvds. Is it with the rest of the video games?
thanks

Yes, that the correct Wal-Mart. They aren't in one of the usual DVD style sale bins. Rather they are in a couple of big plastic storage bins on the bottom couple of shelves in the very back right corner of the electronics area. Took me a little while to find them too.

I've learned to be thorough when browsing the media/electronics sections of stores like Wal-Mart or Target. Good deals and clearance items are often stuck on out of the way endcaps.
