Sometimes I wonder why I bother buying games the day they come out. Jeez. I could have saved around $80 right there between GoW and ME2.

When you buy them when they come out, you're voting with your dollar.

@omgJOHN I only buy select games on day one...usually it's something I buy the collector's for (e.g. Halo) or a sports game (like Madden when I buy it). Everything else is a rental from gamefly...if I like it I keep it for usually a huge discount...they even send the original case so you get the "buy new" incentives as well.

Gamefly is win-win-win for me.

Gamefly would be win-win-win for me too if they ever sent me the damn game I want. Red Dead Redemption has literally been at the top of my list SINCE IT CAME OUT. I still haven't gotten it.

They should actually pay you $8 to play it.

@Chris DPSN AggieCEO XBLThe Aggi Hmm, I see. Hype can kill a game for me but I wasn't hyped for this one at all. I'll still get it eventually but was just curious. Thanks.

I've already got ME2 on PC, but I'm waiting for the Special PS3 Edition, thanks.

It's tempting for me too since I don't actually own a 360, but I still have a save file on my roommate's from the first game and I really want Wrex to be alive. He was my fave. :)

You've been reading too much speculation. Who says Wrex, and other options, won't be available through the Prologue that's being released exclusively for the PS3?

I didn't even hear about this prologue. Maybe I'll hold off after all. Thanks for the heads up! :)

17.99 sounds about right to me for alpha protocol.

I love you, Joystiq. ^_^ Now I can finally play ME2. (And before people swoop down from the sky, I don't own a 360 or else I'd have already bought it. My roommate has one that I occasionally take over.)

how does a cheaper price solve your problem of not having a 360?

Like I said, my roommate has a 360 I take over some times. I still have a finished ME1 save file on there. I just wouldn't want to pay full price for a game on a system I don't personally own.

why dont you just sign up for gamefly!? It saves me over $1000 a year!

If anyone wants a free month just send me an email to dianediaz@live.com

I can then send you a link that gets you one free month instead of the usual 2 weeks free!

I did have Gamefly. Their turnaround times are horrible. It would take almost a week for a game to arrive and another week for them to receive it.

Also, they never sent games that were on the top of my queue, even though it said that there is a "high availability"

I just picked up god of war 3 for $20. With a price that cheap should I be worried?

No I bough 2 of them. May give other as a gift, or just sell it back on eBay with a nice profit. I like great deals.

@DG Bruin 08 You need an account but you don't need an active membership.

Thank you! Got it just in time.

It was at 85% claimed when I clicked the link and by the time I checked out and looked again it was at 95%.

And now that I've finished writing this it's 100%.

Well when I find awesome deals I want to share too. Making it harder might to find deals is counterawesome.

Looks like I'll finally be picking up Dante's Inferno. I already have all the other games listed, minus alpha protocol which you'd have to pay ME to play.

Similar thing here, I went to buy God of War 3, but its only available new for $60 now. Did "until friday" change meanings?

I would be really POed if I bought Alfa Protocol at full launch price. When was that, like a month ago?
From what I hear about it, it might actually be worth $17 but not $60.
