[quote name='slidecage']That is where the webpage is messed up it popped up this morning with 1 copy in I ordered is using my CC went back 2 mins later still there. ordered another one with Gift card for Present Still there[/QUOTE]

I didn't even try for it. Little bit too much for me. Hopefully you get a copy.

eb might be pushing a new plan in where you can only order 1 rare game at a time to stop hoarders from taking them all. Then again i might had a bug in my cookies and it just kept reshowing it. was only like 24 afters coupons they run around 40-50 on ebay.. will know by tomorrow if any of them ship or not
 
[quote name='escapekey']Wow, wonder why so cheap?[/QUOTE]

you could get them used off ebay complete few days back as low as 15 bucks. I had one ordered friday but Cancelled my eb order
 
i think im going to crash i just hope the Brigandine games i order do ship. If they do then i wouldnt care if i got anything else this week if they came complete it would really rock. I might again say MIGHT have one for trade if both ship. right now im thinking 1 for myself and the other one (i used my gift card on is for my friends Bday) and that is IF they both ship cause when i jumpped on the first one it just said 1 in stock

$9.99

This game is awesome and crazy addictive (only one left) ...
http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/209841.asp
$12.99[/QUOTE]

I haven't picked up anything in a while, but I couldn't resist these two. Dodgeball was a game I always wanted to pick up, but never saw in stores after the first week or so it was out... and Snood is single handedly responsible for many of my less than stellar grades my first year in college haha... thanks for the post!
 
Dodgeball is a fun.. but ultimately its very easy and not very challenging.. the "special" throws are cool.. i would imagine this game is funner with a friend.

Glad to be of service.
 
I hate, personally, everyone who bought Snood. You might as well just track down the designer of Puzzle Bobble and kick his teeth in.
 
[quote name='mkelehan']I hate, personally, everyone who bought Snood. You might as well just track down the designer of Puzzle Bobble and kick his teeth in.[/QUOTE]

IIRC, Puzzle Bobble = Snood = Puyo Pop (maybe not the last one)?

If this is correct, why bother getting upset about someone who clearly didn't have his/her intellectual property covered? It's not like Snood would exist if the designer covered their ass, right?
 
Puzzle Bobble (Bust-A-Move)/Snood and Puyo Pop are two entirely different games...

And I'm not sure of Snood's release date, but Puzzle Bobble was released in 1994. I have a feeling that Snood being shareware and all is probably a rip-off of Puzzle Bobble. Nothing wrong with that, but just trying to clarify.
 
So Saturday I got my GBA Super Puzzle Fighter, and inside the proper case is the chipset for Virtural Kasparov. This is the second time that I received the wrong chipset inside the case of a relatively rare game, both from ebgames.com (last time it was Kung Fu in an NES Contra case). Am I the only one this has happened to, or is there a black market in people scamming EB? Sucks to be EB.
 
[quote name='WinnieThePujols']Tic-tac-toe, three in a row.

http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/119122.asp

I don't know if that's rare or what, but I could've sworn I didn't see that game the last few times I'd been checking...then, randomly, Friday afternoon -- POOF -- it showed up. I know I have not seen that in-stock before.

Now, whether it's worth buying is up for debate. (I personally have no idea.)[/QUOTE]

I bought that game about two years ago for less than 4 bucks off of EBGames! It's pretty damn fun, a kind of side-scrolling RPG/Action game. HUGE levels, TONS of weapons (literally more than 30 to obtain), and one of my favorite side-scrolling gimmicks - the real-time, momentum-driven grappling hook (Think Worms 2). Plus, because of its RPG nature you can run through all of the landscapes and get the weapons at your own leisure.

The only problem is that there is no save - only a 40-character password system. Literally the reason I sold the game. If you can stand that, though, it comes highly recommended.
 
Anyone know how often ToCA Race Driver 2 with the free Colin McRae Rally 4 shows up? I know the regular version is available currently.

I could have sworn I saw it last week for $15.
 
Just received my 2 lunar 2 copies. They are both in great condition, but have nothing else besides original case and 3 disks. What can you expect though.

[quote name='iammeiam']Woo. Just got a shipping notice for my backordered Gitaroo Man. EB does seem really flush with the rarer games lately.[/QUOTE]
Awesome! I got my copy today, and I'm thrilled with it. I am still insanely jealous you got Rez tho.

I wish I could get my hands on Rez... I've had it snatched during checkout three times during the last week. Such a tease; it makes me sad :cry:

You're thinking about ATL: Twilight of the Spirits. The new game is $29.99.

Let me know how it turns out for you. I'm an rpg nut, but I didn't really remember being too impressed with it, granted I didn't play it much though. If it was cheaper, I'd give it another shot but I figure I would just let someone else from here get it because they will probably get more enjoyment out of it than I will.

I have both and I think Gitaroo Man is a much better game. I adore it and I listen to the soundtrack often. Bee Jam Blues and the Legendary Theme (both acousitic and normal versions) are my favorite and a joy to play.

I've played a few stages of Rez but haven't had the urge to go back and play it. Maybe I need to give it another shot. But just wanted to say congrats on Gitaroo Man, I wish they would of made a sequel.

EB is becoming one of my favorite online stores, at this rate.

I still don't have Rez yet. Hopefully within the next day or so. I'm half expecting the mailman to destroy it, or something, because the idea of no longer having to obsessively check every store I go to for that game is near-foreign to me.

On another note, I did get Suikoden II today. It was game-only, but the game disc is actually in really, really good condition. No major scratches, and I didn't really notice any minor ones either, which surprised me. Kind of surprised somebody would lose the case & manual but treat the disc so well.

Not Puyo Pop - that's more like Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine for the Genesis (same game, actually) or Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo.
 
EB has the worst deals out of all the retailers now... WTF happened? Why did they sellout and go corporate?? It use to be about the gamers.
 
[quote name='Kastides']EB has the worst deals out of all the retailers now... WTF happened? Why did they sellout and go corporate?? It use to be about the gamers.[/QUOTE]
Actuakky gamestop has the worst deals out there. AFAIK it was and has always been about the money, and if they make the customer happy its a added bonus. They "sold out" because they were BOUGHT OUT by gamestop, they have limited recourse when these things are set in motion (AKA you really cant stop a train with a car) They have gone corporate because its the way to control the bottom line if you got a 1200+ empire (I use empire loosely)
