Toys R Us has decided that all peripherals must go, and in order to clear the shelves as quickly as possible, a ridiculous number of DJ Hero, Tony Hawk, and Guitar Hero bundles for all systems have been marked down to $9.99. If you've just got too darn much free space in your living room, make the jump for the full list of store-only mega-deals. We recommend getting a swift move on, however; even with these franchises functionally dead, we don't expect this stuff to hang around for long.
[Thanks, Teeftwo!]

Those Tony Hawk games should be free.

Gonna grab a couple copies of the Renegade Edition. They make excellent TV trays.

I work at the one in Wichita, KS. I think the sale started on Sunday and we already sold out of all the bundles on or around Tuesday. The only bundles we have left are the Tony Hawk Ride bundles.

@29A The employee I spoke to said they're sold out across Washington state.

@Downhearted Boy Oops, way over-generalized there. I meant, they're sold out of DJ Hero 2 stuff for Xbox 360 across Washington. Not sure on the rest of the bundles.

WOW that is cheap. If we had a Toys "Я" Us close by I would probably pick one of those bundles up.

Well, I'm in Canada so I'm not sure it would work the same (it probably would).
I'm also leaving town for 4 days tomorrow so I'm pretty much hooped :(

Having a name with alliteration such as mine you tend to become a master of the "R".

I need a new drumset. I liked my Guitar Hero set while it lasted, but I think I'd prefer a Rock Band based set since that's my main game now.

If they have these for that price in the UK Toyrs R US, then I would certainly buy the lot! Sell em on Ebay for double.

I went to my local Toys R' Us on Tuesday and didn't have much money on me at the time. I went back today to get the Limited Edition The Beatles: Rock Band Bundle for $29.99 but they sold out. I did get the Value Bundle instead for $29.99 though!
Posted: Aug 21st 2011 3:31PM Gourd British said
@No Fear Man - Beatles Rock Band wouldnt have been included anyway since this is for the Guitar Hero franchise..
And this sale actually started last weekend. Thought about getting it but I prefer the RB guitar

Cuhrist. If there was a Toys R Us in the area I would get DJ Hero immediately.

Dead franchises or not, 10 bucks for those super bundles is an absurd thought. And to think how much they were not even that long ago.
I'll pick up one of the DJ Hero's if they are still in stock, but contemplating whether it'll be 1 or 2...

If there is one positive thing about oversaturation it's that the patient (or latecomers) will be rewarded.
Posted: Aug 21st 2011 11:47AM Bridget said
@Lerkero Tell me about it. In the last group of music games, I got Beatles, GH5, and *shudders* even Band Hero at $5 apiece.
Just goes to show, if you price these things right, they will sell. When the rhythm genre was bloated, asking $60 for a new title was stupid.

Price match works at Wal-mart , best buy for those not near TRU

I'm probably gonna get either DJ Hero or DJ Hero 2, which is better though?

@agentkuo
DJ Hero has Daft Punk in it (as characters), which is always awesome, but IMO DJ Hero 2 is a better game. Either way, you can pick up the other one used for a song and play both. They don't support the Rockband import feature though, which is their only downside.

DJ Hero (1) has a better and more varied setlist IMO, and DJ Hero 2 has better gameplay.

They really shot themselves in the foot with hardcore gamers, having a 300 lb weight limit on those skateboards.

This sale DID start last Sunday. It also included the GH Warriors of Rock and Band Hero Bundles for $30. They were all gone by the end of the day.

gonna grab dj hero been waiting to play and used to play it on my break at TRU and now that i have a way better paying job i can afford it.
Posted: Aug 20th 2011 9:28PM ColeM said
Yup, it started last sunday and ends today. I went on Sunday to pick up DJ hero 2, and just because it was $10, Tony Hawk. I also saw about 4 moms with their kids putting one of every game in their carts. I bet the one I went to was sold out by the time the store closed on Sunday.

Just called the local Toys R Us and they were out of the PS3 bundles. :(
Did any other news site report this before Joystiq? Seems like their bloggers have been a tad slow lately but Joystiq is the only major gaming blog I check regularly.

Swung by my local Toys R Us a half-hour ago. They were out of all DJ Hero, Guitar Hero, and Tony Hawk bundles for every console. I need some way of getting to-the-minute reports on these sales, they always sell out so damn fast.
Posted: Aug 20th 2011 10:40PM Maximo said
I picked up a Shred bundle and DJ hero 2 both for ps3. Had to go to 2 different stores each store only 2 items left. Crazy good deal. $20 for both games.
