Title: Newegg sells cheap 360 games too
Post by: drozdal on January 28, 2010, 10:42:29 PM
Yet another thread with crazy deals in it (for older games).

Newegg has almost 40 Xbox360 games for under $10 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2083230516%204024&page=1&bop=And&ActiveSearchResult=True) right now. Majority of them have free shipping too.

Here is the list of stuff that may interest some of you

Crackdown
KOF: Circle of Doom
The Club (Sega's weird mix of third person shooter and racing game)
Condemned 2: Bloodshot
Guilty Gear 2: Overture
Operation Darkness (360 version of Valkyria Chronicles)
Project Gotham Racing 4
Project Sylpheed (one of the few decent space arcade shooters on 360)
Pure
Bionic Commando

Sadly Raiden Fighter Aces is back at it's regular price.

Pure is definitely worth $10. And holy shit, they have Stranglehold? Sold. The demo alone provide so many laughs that I'd feel like a jerk passing it up. And Bionic Commando, simply because I'm a big Mike Patton fan (even Capcom concedes that it's demo was the absolute worst things ever).

These are all new copies, right?

Yep, all those copies are new (newegg does not [yet] have used game program).

I remember playing Stranglehold, laughs aside (there were many), but the game camera combined with wonky and not precise controls killed it for me. I had enough and quit during ship level (maybe third mission?). This game looked beautiful when it came out though. Also doves...

Yeah $10 for Stranglehold, you'll get that much fun out of it. But it suffers from camera hell and having a control system with so many varied moves you can theoretically pull off, but a sloppy-ass system of trying to do any of it, that you wind up just running & gunning most of the time, because fancy moves get you smeared all over the geography.

Actually, it's only $8, and I still haven't picked it up, and might never will in the end. Cuz I can still think of other things that I'd rather blow eight dollars on, plus the demo is just the right length to show folks before becoming bored.

I got out of bad last night (1 AM-ish) and ordered a bunch of these games, I really don't remember what I got, or even what compelled me to do it.  I just know that in a couple of days I'll have more games about shooting people.

You sleep shopped?

You sleep shopped?

Pretty much, although it felt a lot more like waking up from a night of debauchery and having a vague notion of what happened. There was shame when I realized what had transpired, I ended up with Stranglehold, Dark Sector, The Club and Bionic Commando.

Ouch, and you didn't even get Pure.
