This used to be a big topic every year, yet there doesn't seem to be a dedicated thread on the sale this year. I almost missed it as I haven't seen the thread here. Did I miss something? I just found out today while browsing their site. And yet the sale I think is Oct 14 to Oct 22 only! It must be the sign of the times.

After browsing, I msyelf am not sure I can pull the trigger for $130 for 3 video games. I'll pass by the store tomorrow and will decide then. NBA 2k12, Gears of War 3, and something else if I do make a purchase.

Signs of the time indeed.

It's covered in the Video Game Deals thread. So many other good Kmart deals every week and new, more restrictive return policies make this sale less attractive than in years past.

First year in a few years that I didn't buy anything. I would've liked to have gotten some combination of Saints Row 3, MW3, and something else. That wasn't in the cards this year.

Yeah, if Skyrim, MW3 and Battlefield were out right now this would be a great deal.

Spot on with this.

Well, the point of the sale (I can only assume) is to get inventory down for the big rush of games during the Xmas season, so it makes sense that they cut down on the return policy (plus people had been abusing it to get free games).

But yeah, not as much on my radar this time around... if Arkham City didn't come out exactly in time for this sale, I probably would have passed altogether.
