Hope the ebay bastards haven't cleared my store out yet. God I hate those guys =(. Maybe CC is smart and its limited to like 3 of each or something.

there weren't 3 of anything on the list when i went.
 
Xbox has the best online selection currently, ps2 and gamecube are pretty much sold out.

I'm gonna try and get over there pretty early today. It's been said that Rez is 4.99, if you cand find it and get it for that price, consider yourself lucky, it goes for around $65 on Ebay. I find that hard to believe though, it's a rare game, it's for PS2 btw. Viewtiful Joe for $5 is hot...a lot of them are fairly hot really. Hope i can get Mario Party 4 and Guilty Gear X.

What time do they open today, anyone know?
 
Just got back from my local CC, I'd like to thank the original poster!

Picked up Viewtiful Joe, Voodoo Vince (whoooooo), and Moto GP2 for Xbox (which wasn't on the list, I just guessed).

Moto GP 1 was also 4.99, but, I left it since 2 was also 4.99
 
Just got back from CC in Columbus, OH (brice location) and they only had 3 of the xbox titles. MGS 2, Futurama, and spyhunter. Syphunter was not in the list from this thread, but the ebayer getting one of each game he could find said it was $5 also. Only was looking for Voodoo vince, but no luck. Anyone who goes to CC and they have vince, i'd be greatful if you'd pick it up for me.
 
Grrr... they barely have any left of the playstation 2 games. My parents are out there right now (no CC by me where I go to college). So if anyone is around the Burnsville, MN area, the selection is slim.

thanks op.

i got ggx, clock tower 3, RE:X, DMC2, bloody roar 4, and omnusha 2.

not too many people at the store, kinda quite. I think they had more employees working today than customers. lol.
 
nyc union sq location is almost completely out... only games you'll find now are those of the nhl hitz pro type...

i didn't get what i actually wanted (mario party 4) and let another slip (bomberman generation) cuz I didn't realize it was on the list... grr 🙂

it was pretty funny watching the employees stashing away games in their desk drawers... i guess today's crew wasn't working yesterday's shift or they woulda known in advance...
 
Store in Glen Burnie, Maryland hardly had any good games most games were in a "Game Titles for $4.99/each" bin i did however pick up about 11 games totally 47$ after 10$ gc

Games were

Xbox
Crimson Sea
Roadkill
Spyhunter 2
Kung Fu Chaos
NFL Blitz Pro
Lortus Challenge
NHL Hitz
Run Like Hell
Voodoo Vince

Ps2
Rygar
MDK 2

Most titles were xbox games with very few ps2 games left i saw alot of guys leaving with carts full of games as i entered the store which sucks and the register person told me only 18 games per ticket so you could only buy 18 games at one time on a credit card i believe not sure if they are all like these or if it was just this store.

Good Hunting 😛
 
Don't bother in the Houston area. Most/all of the stores are sold out of almost all the $4.99 titles (or at least the ones good enough to make the drive for). I got the last copies of Onimusha 2 and Panzer Dragoon. Unfortunately, no Disgaea, Ape Escape 2, MGS2, Resident Evil, etc... even though I was there at the time they opened.
 
I watched a guy clean out the Woodland Hills store a few minutes after opening. There wasn't much left from last night, but still...

The Northridge store still had a good selection 1 hour after opening. I picked up a couple more games: Aliens vs Predator, Clone Wars, Bomberman and Dead to Rights.

Strangely, Obi Wan didn't scan at $4.99, it was still $19.99.

There are a few games not on the list (or on the FW list) that do ring up for $4.99:
GBA Moto GP
Xbox Dead to Rights (platinum hits version too)
Xbox Moto GP
Xbox Moto GP2

other games online for $4.99 might also scan in-store for the same price.
 
for obi wan you have to find the version that isn't greatest hits, i hit 2 ccs in richmond, va today and the selection was pretty good, i got 33 games, got tired of digging through them eventually so theres still stuff to get there.

one of the employees at one cc said that this sale was not suppose to stat until june 11, oh well, i'm glad i got in before they put the sale in the newspaper, then it would really be a mob and not worth the hassle.
