    50 percent of something is better than 100 percent of nothing.

    I'm pretty sure the longer time goes on the harder it's going to be to get full price for those games

      Only seeing it for Xbox one at that price. Can't even add it to the cart for PS4, out of stock. Even then it was $55 for the PS4 version

        I just don't like the game at all. The first one is the only one I've liked.

            For whatever reason when you click on it it is defaulting to a seller gohastings. Click other new offers and amaZon is on there for 45.

              50%of next to nothing is not worth the time and effort it takes to check the items out.
              Nothing personal, but live your entire life that way but don't complain when you can't make any money yourself!!
              Don't get me wrong I'm all for sales and budgeting ones money and saving, but I remember the day when it wasn't a crime to make money.
              I also understand that ppls lives come in many different phases and there's certainly times when money is scarce, just ticks me off when ppl go through their entire life complaining about, stores, companies, corporations making money only to go home and complain coz they didn't get a raise... Lol
              Not at all saying that's you, just kinda sounded like that and it's something that always bugged me.
              Anywho, glad you got the game deals you wanted, just don't begrudge the stores for making money, no different than you or I trying to make a buck too.
              Happy gaming, and if you remember give me an idea how you like sniper elite 3, I've been thinking about picking that up myself but the reviews I've read didn't sound all that hot. Sounded like it needed a patch and didn't know how well that series is supported.
              Btw in all honesty I probably would of done the same thing you did due to the fact that there was stores out with good sales and it is the holiday season.

                Bruh you went way too deep and I wasn't even talking about that. If thats the case they wouldn't have had the same sale the freaking day before lol.

                Think for a minute. They referenced cyber Monday as if it mattered at all. All they did was lose a customer and im perfectly content.

                I played SE 2 free on PC and enjoyed a bit but I only decided on this matter watching Chris smooves lets play a few months ago because I wasn't in support of the game but its definitely more of my pace because I'm sick of the linear fps genre that refuses to continue to innovate

                  No, it's good business for them to not sell it to you below cost. Why the hell would you think it's smart for them to buy something from a distributor and then sell it to you for less than they bought it for? That makes absolutely zero sense.

                    Uh because they were the ones that had a sale days running.

                    You guys are being ridiculous.

                      They didn't though. You wanted a company to give you something that would actually cost them money. That's why Best Buy doesn't price match Black Friday weekend stuff. They choose what they want to take hits on. The notion that selling it to you at half its cost is better than not selling it to you at full cost is just ridiculous.

                        First of all I didn't ask anyone to give me anything. I went to the store with money and there was a sale on their website which they decided to temp cancel for a few hours.

                        I just asked the man if they'd price match and he asked me if he could see the other companies sales... he talked to the managers and came back and he said they didn't so I took my money 2 doors down where I got the same sale.

                        Best buy should be that a best buy but many times they aren't which is why they almost went bankrupt the way of circuit city. If not for gamers club unlocked many of the guys here wouldn't even shop there.

                        Don't come to me like I'm an evil consumer over a video game. Amazing how you can put up a price to get someone there to suckered them into buying other stuff but I can't ask for a sale? Is this April fools day?

                        Please don't keep this thread on how I tried to rip off some corporation. Its not even that serious

                          I wasn't saying you were trying to rip anyone off. All I'm saying is it's not as insane for them to deny you a price match as you're saying it is. You weren't gaming the system or anything like that, and I'm not claiming you were doing anything wrong.

                              Damn I'm mad I missed out at getting The Show for $20 on PSN since it's back up to 59.99 now SMH.

                              Guess I could always get it from Best Buy since I have the GCU Membership and have $35 on a gif card from them so that's not a bad consolation prize.

                                It’s that time of the year – you know the time when you can’t go to the store without dealing with a million people looking for hot deals to save money. Luckily, you can save money over the next four weeks without ever having to leave the comfort of your couch thanks to the fantastic [...]
                                It’s easier to do the right thing, than to explain why you didn’t.
