[quote name='rywateska']Hopefully it was a good decision to pick up Magic Pengel...

I found a mint/complete Disaster Report at my local EB and put it on hold until the weekend. Any arguments on if it would be wise to pick up?[/QUOTE]

I think both are good choices. The graphics on disaster report are nothing special, but I found it tense in a good and fun way. Just like you would be in reality, you're afraid to walk to the edge of the unstable bridge in case there's another aftershock and that area collapses. I have one of the Rez trance vibrators in the mail, which can also be used with this game, to offer additional rumble sensation. Should be pretty cool.
 
Who bought all 3 copies of NCAA College Basketball 2k3 for GC at $5.99 each? Usually, I laugh at you guys who cry about missing some SNES game, but NCAA 2K3 for GC for $5.99. Who looks at GC games anyways?

If it is someone on this site who bought all 3 copies, can you spare me a copy for $10?
 
[quote name='slidecage']Very lame update. Im s ure that gitaroo man is a glitch if its just saying for a second just liek lunar 2[/QUOTE]
You're wrong... People are just buying it very, very quickly.

Really have yet to here somone say they got it shipped

Yes, considering the only people who buy from EB are participating members of CAG. No lurkers or people not on the site period :roll:

is that the game that fetch too much money on ebay (like 30-40) shocked eb even had them

i think a few people here said they got it ordered but never got the shipping email saying it went out
 
[quote name='slidecage']i think a few people here said they got it ordered but never got the shipping email saying it went out[/QUOTE]

Two of us apparently ordered at the exact same time, and then somebody else ordered later when the system did the weird readjusting into stock thing. One of the people who initially ordered did get it shipped, and said so in this post.
 
[quote name='slidecage']Really have yet to here somone say they got it shipped[/QUOTE]
These things go for more than $80 on ebay, people snatch them up extremely quickly. You have to be prepared to buy that game, and only that game, before the system is done updating, and have your coupons entered beforehand. This is the only way you can get things like Rez, Suikoden II, Valkyrie Profile, etc. Rez and Gitaroo man are even more desirable because they are guaranteed complete.

Yay for me :)

By the way, is it normal to see Rez or Gitaroo Man both appear twice in the same week? Until this week, I never saw either of them (though I admit, I actually made more of an effort this week since I happen to be up).

Definitely yay for you (Seriously! Jealous! But, ah well.)

I haven't been following the update for too long, but have hit pretty much every update for the past couple weeks. This week was the first time I saw either Rez or Gitaroo Man show up, but I do remember somebody saying 'rare' games tend to pop up in streaks, which seems to be true. I think Suikoden II popped up twice last week (leading to some people suspecting another Lunar 2 bug), too.
 
Umm... you can't use gift vouchers in combination with any of the codes (SAVER, CAG15, etc)?

How about if I buy a gift card with them, then is it stackable?

Edit: Nevermind, they aren't letting me buy gift cards with them either. Ah well.

I haven't been watching it, but I saw it on June 29, when I ordered it. Hasn't shipped, but a lot of my backorders get filled.

My Suikoden II from July 15th shipped, though.
 
be interesting to see Suikoden II show back up. Im on backorder for it though the phone. wonder if they put new stock online or really fill backorder phone orders ... I got to call them today and cancell Arc the lad. I found out i can get sealed for that price on ebay

I've yet to order from EB, so I know if I get a good game in my cart, it'll be gone before I can get to checkout.
Spikeout is still in stock for $20.24 a/c, I think that might go up a little in value... Though its very low on ebay right now, might even be cheaper there.

DAMN, I cannot believe that game popped up on EB's site. FYI, only 3000 copies of that game were made, and it's extremely rare, which is probably why one person bought all 3. Take a look here:

[quote name='b0bx13']...and I just grabbed the other. Thanks for the tip :)[/QUOTE]

For me, this is the value of the morning update . . . I don't try for Rez or other high-profile games . . . I look for the quirky (I got Skygunner months ago!) and cheap stuff.

Serious Sam was pointed out 2 days ago (p.59 post #1165). And I thought $4 ac! . . . but damn it was OOS. So, I added it to my favorites and caught it today and its best when you can share with others . . . so I posted it as well.

If someone else wants it for this price, add it to your favorites and check it for yourself.

A nice quiet morning update for me.
 
I see NCAA College Basketball 2k3 all the time. I just never pick it up because I don't like sports. Rare or not. Plus, I don't trust half.com as a judgement of value. I might search completed ebay auctions.

ebay is 30 to 40
 
man got up this morning and stayed up (cant go back to sleep for some reason) for nothing i cancellled my orders. I can find arc the lad cheaper then 25 on ebay hell one went the other day for 15
 
Not so much of an update price, but EB has the Pokemon Trading Card Game going for $4 BC right now, with 43 copies remaining.
http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/174753.asp

There are also 34 copies remaining of the original Pokemon Pinball, for the amazing bargain price of $1.50.
http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/163728.asp

I know these have been posted before, but I think it's been a while...and besides, you never know who might want one of them. :D

they still gotta sell it for those ridiculous prices.
 
I actually couldn't find any auctions for the NCAA game currently or completed on ebay. I specifically remember one mint copy going for about 80 on ebay a couple months ago though.
 
So does anyone know what the hell is going on with the coupons and why they only allow ten dollars off? Even me edge card number won't let me get more than ten off, which is bullshit. I have a $300 order waiting to be placed since yesterday, but I won't order it until the codes are fixed or we get some kind of explanation. I won't make a bunch of small orders, because that's a pain in the ass, and that's beside the fact that after so many orders from one place at one time, my credit card company cancels every order because they think the card is stolen.
