Best Buy video game blowout! Over 100 titles for $9.99

The BB ad for this Sunday (4/26) shows a bunch of games for $9.99 plus more. The games shown are:

360

Pure
DMC4
Bourne Conspiracy
Red Alert 3

PS3

Lost Planet
Fracture
Soul Calibur 4
Blitz 2
Rock Revolution

and a couple DS and Wii games

Hopefully there will be some more decent ones like the Target clearance ones (I'm still looking for Tomb Raider)

I bought the ones I want now and will price match on Sunday. Some of the stuff like Singstar Vol 2 and SC4 only had one copy at the store I went to.
BTW, the stores have the ones that will be $9.99 marked with a yellow sticker. You can find them pretty easy if you check today or tomorrow.

The scan of the ad that has been posted around does not say "starting at", it says "Over 100 Great Game at One Low Price".

Actually, if you look at the ad, it specifically says:

"Look for this sticker: $9.99 each
Over 100 Great Games at One Low Price
Title selections may vary by store. Online offer may vary. Rainchecks on insert items only"

That makes it pretty clear that all of the 100+ titles with the special yellow sticker will be $9.99, no more and no less.....

According to CAG, the prices are already effective. Might want to hit there tomorrow before the ad comes out. Double check CAG on that though, I read that over a week ago, and things might have changed.

How is Pure?

Hm, I don't think they are in place yet, the items are just tagged with yellow (I assume not price tag type) stickers in most stores. A lot of people are buying stuff now to get adjustments on Sunday. I'm just going to wait and look online Sunday morning, then hit a store when it opens to look for Pure, Infinite Undiscovery and maybe 1 or 2 more. If they are gone, oh well, my backlog is huge anyway.

Pure is awesome, sort of like SSX on ATVs.

85 at Metacritic.

Anything else on the PS3 or 360 lists that you guys would highly recommend? The only ones I've played are Rock Band (obviously), the GH's, and MLB 08.

they all have little yellow circular "Best Buy" stickers on them. Wish I would have connected the dots when I was there today.

I'm hoping to grab Bolt as a gift, Hellboy and Infinite Undiscovery for myself. I am not counting on there being enough copies though.

Overlord is a cool game. Sequel drops in June I think. It's fun and worth at least twice that. Too Human isn't great by any means but as far as a futuristic dungeon crawler, it's probalby worth the $10. Obviously Soul Calibur IV is pretty awesome on either system.

Would Amazon compete with BB and match the prices?

If my BB has DMC4 on Sunday I'll grab it. Didn't see anything else I wanted.

The only Wii game I want is Samba De Amigo. The other Wii games look like trash.

Not part of the sale, but I found these 2 Wii games on sale on Best Buy's website:

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock for $9.99

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith for $9.99

I got both of these in a Dual Pack at WalMart a couple of weeks ago for $40.

Fun game. Reminds me a lot of SSX. There's a demo on the 360 (I don't know about the PS3). $10 is a great deal.

If I find them (and the deal doesn't exclude Puerto Rico), I may get the following for my PS3:

007: Quantum of Solace
Bourne Conspiracy
Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions
Soul Calibur 4

I just picked up SC4 at Blockbuster for $25 and thought that was a good price. If I can get a $10 copy, I'll return the Blockbuster one.

Great... I'm going to be out of town. Won't even be able to get the ad to price match.

Just went and picked up:
007 (360)
Overlord (PS3)
Jericho (PS3)
Infinite Undiscovery
Silent Hill

Infinite Undiscovery rang up at $10 (after my RZ card went thru), all other were regular priced. Plus most of the ones I bought weren't tagged with the yellow sticker

I tried to pick up 007 today and it still rang up $29.99 even after my RZ card. This was the PS3 version and came with a free 007 t-shirt. Does this sale not start officially until tomorrow?

Starts tomorrow. Just take your receipt to BB tomorrow for a price adjustment.
