The only games I'm interested in will probably be games that I already own. That sucks so hard when I think of the hundreds of bucks I could've saved if I'd just held off on buying games like friggin' Quake IV and Condemned. I'm sooo glad that I only rent now. Thank you, God, for Gamefly.

I'm definitely going to try to get Oblivion and MotoGP 06. I had them both at one time and traded them in to get other games. I wouldn't mind seeing if my local store had King Kong either. I have yet to play through it for the 1000 points.

@4

I agree!! I just got this game a week ago for $13 off someone on eBay. I played the game for 2 hours, winning quite a few races and didn't get one achievement.

these deals have been posted on all sorts of forums and deal sites. The only way you guys will be getting one of those games (especially the $2 games), is if our at the door when the store opens. Considering that was 30 minutes ago, I would say your already to late (unless your central or pacific)

Nashua, NH did not have any of the games on that list with clearance prices. I checked a few including oblivion and halo 2 but they were scanning at regular prices.

As with a lot of these types of sales, most stores are probably going to reflect the full price for a while. It's probably just going to get randomly updated in the computer out of nowhere.

I checked my local Best Buy, none of the games scanned in at these low prices. I mainly wanted Oblivion, King Kong (if anything, for the gamerscore points), and Moto GP 2006. Oblivion was ringing up for $60, Moto GP 2006 rang up for $50, and King Kong rang up for $30.

Although one of those games are really good, I just can't see justifying spending full price on a old game.

Oh well, I guess this rumor was just that, a rumor. Maybe the sale will happen next week.

i went to the best buy in pembroke pines, florida and it was a bust. i was there right when they opended the doors almost 20 minutes late. They had NO games on the list, but i asked on of the employees to tell me the price of pokemon sapphire for gba and the computer said 1.99. So the clearance was true. But the store opened 20 minutes after 10 am. So im thinking it was a conspiracy. The store opened 20 minutes late with every employee inside. Gets me thinking.

My local Best Buy also did not have any clearance sale games, but it WAS curiously full of employees, which is usually not the case. I think it was an inside job!

you're not going to find many BB's that have ANY of these games. I spoke with a guy at my local BB today and he checked every store in the area and none of them have any of them. Basically, these are games that best buy doesn't stock anymore and hasn't for a while. They're considered "out of print", so if you get lucky and the store happens to have a copy, you can get it for that price, but most stores will have sold out of them a long time ago.

There's nothing at the Best Buy in Northeast Philadelphia (Roosevelt Boulevard, Rt. 1). I was there at open and the guy didn't even know what I was talking about.

I will help clear this up. I went to my local BB and had the clerk (who was not aware) check the system. All the information reported is accurate. The issue is that all the stores in the MA/RI district discontinued these titles long ago and have none (very rare exception on the titles I spot checked). The stores have Oblivion, but the special price only applies to the CE. Must be why it was not advertised in this area - there is no stock.

Lame, there were none of these games in the store :(

Oh well, thanks for the heads up anyway. I ended up buying Crackdown so it looks like their evil plan worked if this was really a marketing scheme ;)

I went to Best Buy. They did not have a single title that I wanted to purchase. I wanted NBA 2K6, Oblivion, and Quake 4... they had none of these games in stock. They had over 50 oblivions but none were collectors editions. The Best Buy employee said that he only found out about the clearence when he came in that morning. This is not False as #19 states. He has bad information. The sale is real finding the games is the trick. This is just a lame attempt of best buy to get people through the door. It worked on me. I bought a ipod.

My brother works at Best Buy so I called him to check the 360 games and he said the only game that they received was Final Fantasy XI for the sale.

This was real. I went to 2 different best buys, one had all the clearance games with the other games. They had PSP, DS and several other games for 1.99 along with the 360 (Most were sold out already for all systems)and the other store had pulled them all from the shelves and put them in one location.

They did have full auto but I missed out on that for my brother.

I did find out one guy bought them all right before me.

I went to look for Full Auto and Oblvion:CE, but the Best Buy in Dedham, MA had none of those games even available. I would say, don't bother trying. It seems that these are all games they don't carry anymore.

"According to a post on IGN's forums"...


soo...
Check it out guys! Best Buy is selling Gears of War for $30, has Alien Hominid HD in disc form, which also comes with Worms!

It was probably just that dumb kids store, and they're probably not CLEARANCE, but USED games, since Best Buy is toying around with selling used stuff now.


I would have liked to get Oblivion for $10 and Kong for $2 though.

Grant, if that was to me i apollogize and stand corrected.
it didn't work on me in the manner they had hoped then, as i walked right back out as empty handed as when i came in. I went in with an agenda and without my BB card, so i was planning to only get these titles had they indeed been there at these prices.

This article is true. I stopped by my local Best Buy this morning and none of the games were left but supposedly they had a line outside and only the early birds got the deals.

My local Best Buy did have two of the games, which I picked up for the prices above, so the deal is valid. Btw, I'm in Northern California.

I found NHL 2K6 and Tony Hawk American Wasteland.

All the other games were out of stock.

Also, NHL was labeled as selling for full price at the 360 section, and it wasn't until I double checked that I was able to confirm the markdown to $4.99

No dice in Minnesota. They had no games for 360 on sale whatsoever, let alone any other console. They had Batwoman. Whoopee.

Went back again to my local BB in FL & picked up College Hoops 2K6 for $4.99 - Yesterday I found Moto Gp '06 for $9.99 both for the 360. Not sure why some BB's are not offering them up, but the deals are true. Good luck.
