Forums - Gaming - My wallet has taken a beating from these game sales.

I have seen Toys R Us and Best Buy run game sales, like buy two, get one free, and I have bought far more games than I had thought I would.  Among the list:

Forza 3

Tekken 6

Dragon Age

Modern Warfare 2 (Bought because it was a $20 gift card, which was used on Dragon Age)

Brutal Legend

Uncharted 2

Ratchet and Clank: Crack in Time

Batman: Arkham Asylum (PS3)

Borderlands

(I may of forgotten some others also)

And if KMart has L4D2 at $40, that will end up joining the list.  Anyone else gone nuts here?

Yea I almost had the same problem, had to stop myself after my Toys R' Us run, told myself I wasn't allowed to buy anymore games until I at least beat 2 of the 3 I bought.

Around the Network

All I have got in just over the last month it: Gran Turismo, Motorstorm, FIFA 10, Uncharted 2, Ratchet and Modern Warfare 2... and Dragon Age and Assassin's Creed II are coming next week



I've avoided sales, citing a lack of disposable income as my reason. Then, I turn right back around and buy the exact games I would've bought except I pay full price!! Or I'll buy a few old games I may never play for the money I saved by not buying a new game.



For what was called such a lack luster release year with all the game delays, Amazon's sales have got me to buy a lot of new games. I usually pick things up used because I enjoy being cheap.

ODST for $50.99 + $15 GC

Borderlands / GTA:IV $81 + 40GC

Dragon Age $56 + $10GC

MW:2 $60 + $20GC

I've got $30 in Amazon GC waiting for a tempting deal.

I also bought on Ebay several older games for $12 each.



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
