Eric P:

yes. same here

Any chance Brad is going to have Braid this low anytime soon? I prefer using Impulse (and supporting Stardock with that ever-so-vital $5 that will keep the lights on), but I really can’t let a deal like this go by.

It looks like Silent Hunter III was replaced with Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War. Damn, and I was going to buy it.

RPS is offering half off of Blurst’s 4-game pack (Velociraptor Safari, Blush, Time Donkey and Crane Wars), bringing the price down to a ridiculous 10 bucks.

These are downloadable, full-screen versions, too.

You can still get SH3 for $5 according to the pricedrop page…

Just a head’s up for those of you in the market for a great plastic guitar and a mediocre game: Target’s reduced Guitar Hero: World Tour Guitar Bundle to $22.98 (Clearance). Found it via Cheapassgamer.com and I saw PS3/PS2 boxes on the clearance rack at my local Target today.

Would this guitar work w/ Rock Band 2 as well as GH games?

Yep, all GH guitars work with RB.

Woo. I was considering signing up anyway, and then this comes along. :)

And already saved $10 on preordering Persona for PSP and Demon’s Souls Deluxe Edition.

Eh, I subscribed for quite a while. I do want to pick their 200th issue if they do something cool in it.

Also after you sign up, you can go tohttp://www.theeca.com/user to cancel the next recurring payment just in case you forget to call before the 1 yr is up.

Lizard_King · 2009-09-12T13:03:42.000Z

This is a good deal. Thanks, Adree. My stack o’ preorders for this year’s end alone justifies the cost of a renewal next year.

Squee · 2009-09-12T21:14:29.000Z

For people with previous knowledge of the ECA coupons, is that GoG code only able to be used once, then it’s gone forever? Or is it a single unique code tied to your account that you can reuse? And if it can’t be reused, can you throw multiple games into your cart at GoG and use the code for the whole shebang?

Haven’t ordered from GoG yet, but the code’s tempting me into grabbing a couple things.
