    So I was browsing Gamestop.com yesterday, looking for any good deals. The week before Christmas, they had the new Prince of Persia for $40, which I think is quite a bargain. After having rented the game and just beating it yesterday, I totally recommend it, though if you can rent it, you might want to do that instead since the game is rather short. Definitely a fine game for any man's collection, however. Anyway, back to the point. So I was looking to see if they had any similar deals. I noticed they had Call of Duty: World at War for $35 new. Seemed like a pretty great deal to me. I was a little reluctant, because of my whole current "I have more games than I have time to play them" attitude, as well as my fairly recently developed "Don't buy games without playing them first" stance. I think COD4 is a totally phenomenal game, and is crazy as it may be, I still haven't tried it online despite having Xbox Live. I think the single player alone is fantastic, and actually, it wasn't until last month that I bought the game, though I did rent it and beat it shortly after it was released. Well, today I decided I couldn't pass up on this great deal and I went to go buy it and afterwards was going to make a post informing all of you Giantbomb members of the rad deal, and dude, it's back up to $60. Heartbreaking. And I thought good things were supposed to happen to those who wait...

    I saw MK vs DC for $40 on Amazon a little while ago.  That being one of the few games that came out this year which I want and don't have, I of course procrastinated until long after the sale was over.  I also wish I got Banjo Kazooie back when it was $25

    Someone up there is saying, "Don't be an idiot, you have too many games as-is." Now you won't be kicking yourself for wasting your money! :D

    Maaaan! Are you guys serious? I totally missed it again! It's sold out at amazon and back to $60 at Best Buy. This is what I get for sleeping! I have learned much from this experience. Be an impulsive buyer and don't sleep!

    Anyway, thanks for trying guys. Much appreciated.

    COD 4 and 5 are way unbalanced and glitchy,but COD 5 is worlds better than COD 4.i'd rather play through events that were meaningful in shaping the world as we know it today, than play through fake events based on one of the most selfish and stupid conficlts in history(The Iraq confilct in case you didn't get that)
