Final Fantasy XIII, Bayonetta, Modern Warfare 2, more for $30 each at Kmart

by JC Fletcher on May 4th 2010 8:01PM

Kmart isn't a name we turn to often for game deals, but the retailer has made a pretty strong case for our continued attention, with a bunch of limited-time deals that are, frankly, a little ridiculous. How about paying for just the good half of Final Fantasy XIII? At $30, that's essentially what Kmart is offering.

Time-release RPGs not for you? How about Bayonetta, Metro 2033, or Modern Warfare 2 for $30 each? Even Nier's been marked down to $44.99, though that game is ridiculous on its own merits. These deals are only available through May 10, and can be found both online and in-store. See the full list of weekly discounts after the break.

While I would never want Joystiq to turn into cheapassgamer or something, I do love when you guys post deals this good! Thanks for the heads up! Bayonetta here I come!

best part is the guy that runs the kmart blog is a CAG member

You will definitely enjoy it. I know I was glued to that game for quite some time after release.

I got Bayonetta for $20 used at Family Video, so if you don't mind slightly used (disc is in excellent condition) and you have a Family Video around, they tend to have some decent prices. I saw Left 4 Dead 2 and Bioshock 2 for $30 as well.

I'm going to second the Family Video thing. I have one a few doors down, and I've picked up numerous games from them for under $30, some that were only out a few months. They always clean them, and then you have 30 days to detect any flaws and exchange it.

Too bad I own all those games except Nier, and not interested in that.

Man, at $30 FFXIII is almost worth it!

IMO, it was worth it at 60. Bought it day one and dont regret it. Very fun game, and very long. Took me like 40 hours to beat it.

I'd rather pay $20 for a couple hours of enjoyment over $30 for 20+ hours of enjoyment and 30 hours of boredom. Just saying.

Exactly.

That's your solely opinion. I've been playing Final Fantasy XIII since release date and right now I'm reaching around 95 hours and I'm still having a lot of fun, but that's just because I really enjoy Final Fantasy saga.

If you are not that into Japanese RPG you will get bored pretty quickly.

Cheers!

Saw this on SlickDeals this morning, nice!

Think I'll finally pick up Bayonetta (for 360) and Darksiders (for PS3)...

Looks like FF13 is out of stock already. Good for the couple minutes it lasted I suppose.

Just buy these games on kmart.com. The shipping is cheap and most of the games(Final Fantasy XIII, Bayonetta, Darksiders, etc) are still in stock.

Get 'em while they last!

I've been waiting for Bayonetta to go down to $20-30 for awhile now. Didn't think there would ever be a Final Fantasy XIII for $30, at least not for 6 more months or more.

I think I'll pick up both Final Fantasy XIII(PS3) and Bayonetta(Xbox 360) tonight.

Forget picking the games up in-store, get 'em online!

It would have to be on the website in order to order it.

It IS actually on the website. I have both games($30 each) in my kart(lol) right now.

I caved and picked up FFXIII during my lunch break. Figured it was worth a try at half price.

Is there a trick to getting the sale?
I clicked on Darksiders and Metro 2033, and Kmart.com has them listed for $40 and $60, respectively...
So, now I'm more disappointed than I was before reading this post.

You have to add it to the cart first

And this makes $15 bucks for 3 maps and sloppy seconds look even more ridiculous. (or justifiable dependant on your view of Acti)

Why are you guys still heckling Nier. It's been said many times that Justin was playing the game wrong. He should have went to spot marked with a big X on the map. The whole thing would have taken just a few seconds. If he'd failed he'd have gotten the required fishes after three failed attempts. But instead of using his brain he put a silly video online and now the internet is convinced Nier is the worst game of the year. Great job, Joystick ....

Boo hoo.

Go away.

Most people here seemed to hate it already - just look through all the comments here: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/04/20/nier-makes-everyone-feel-better/#comments - so it's not really a big deal.

I'm still gonna play it. =D

I can't seem to get the K-mart site to work. The electronics part is loading but it appears that page doesn't exist.

It's about as enjoyable as going to a K-Mart.

I'd also like to say I haven't been to K-mart since 2000.

That's about right.

K-Mart is stuck in the 90's, I think, considering the look/condition of most of their stores.

Which I think is amusing, considering how well they've done with evolving Sears over the years, while they've let K-Mart go to hell.

Where have you been? Anybody who's anybody buys their underwear from Kmart! :p

From time to time though, they do have good bargains. For games, that is. Not just underwear.

Pantsparty: We're still experiencing some technical difficulties with kmart.com. We're working on them, and hope they will be resolved shortly.

(NOTE: I'm the social media manager for Kmart/Sears Home Electronics.)

I took a trip back to 1998, and it was worth it. Got the 2nd to last FF13.

Assassin's Creed 2 on sale at Amazon for $26.54

http://www.amazon.com/Assassins-Creed-II-Xbox-360/dp/B00269DXCK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1273019284&sr=1-1

Shit I got it for $16.54. I had a $10 credit for purchasing borderlands the other day

man i love Amazon.

Man, I have a $10 coupon for Gamestop that seems to not be working for ANY game! What the hell?!

Just had my other location call me telling me about this asking if i wanted any of em. Told em to pick up AVP for me. $30 is a steal! Thanks Shaun!

Cant ship to Canada.... Sad day....

I was thinking I'd wait for the price to go down on bayonetta but now why bother?

Most of these deals are dead thanks to Slickdeals.net.

Those a$$holes camp out deals all day.

Rule of thumb. When a deal is posted on Joystiq, it's already been on slickdeals for hours. Ergo, it's DOA.

Been keeping my eye on a price drop or sale for Bayonetta ever since it was determined that its fraternal twin brother, Dante's Inferno, was sickly and stupid. Assuming that either your site works or I can find it locally, thanks, Kmart!

Wow, KMart does it again. I remember buying World at War last year for $20, best deal I've ever seen for a popular recent title like that. The fact they're practically doing it again this year with more games makes me wish I waited on buying some of the games on that list...

Har har, half of the word "half" is italicized.

Damn K-Mart and their weak ass website!!!!

For 30, I wouldnt mind owning Metro, I usually avoid buying games without multiplayer, never seems to make sense to buy a game Im gonna play for maybe 9 hours for 60 dollars and never touch again. Though I did buy Mass effect 1 and 2.... but those are exceptions.

Simple yet effective photoshop on the picture, love it.

Just ordered Bayonetta on 360 and Darksiders on PS3. My wallet thanks you.

I haven't been to Kmart in years, but I just went out and got FFXIII, thanks Joystiq!

Only for the 360 apparently :\

Is there a method by which I can only PLAY the good half of FF13? No? Then I'm still not interested.

I'd bite for Bayonetta if I didn't already own it, though.

Thanks Joystiq.... now I won't be able to sleep tonight since i'm sooo going to pick up Bayonetta & FF XIII tomorrow as soon as the store opens :]

BTW... Kmart still exists? I thought wal mart just consumed it.

I placed an order and the discount did not kick in at final check out like it states. I had to call customer service only for them to tell me they will research it and I'll get a response in 24-48 hours. I'm thinking about canceling it and just driving the 10 miles to the closest K-mart in town.

Excuse me, Flare-Sama

You're excused.
