buy 2 xbox titles and you get 10bucks off on ur next one LOL, nfl before savings is 29.99, pgr is 39.99, 007 & Halo & World Series Baseball are 49.99 all before savings, if you buy 2 other titles. so i reckon, get Hunter: The Reckoning, and some other game and you can get NFL Fever for 29bucks.....*shrug*

not all that good, but the new peeps getting Xbox since this "misprint" peeps are sure to get 2 titles already and why not pick up something else with this new deal they gots this weekend.

I bought Hunter for $44.99 today, minus a $5 coupon from EGM.

$39.99 -- not too shabby.

I got Hunter at Gamestop yesterday, and it was the most annyoing thing ever. My mom got me Jedi Starfighter for my b-day on 5-18, and i didnt really want it, so we went to Gamestop to exchange it for Hunter. When we got there, i gave my receipt to a worker, and hes said i couldnt return it becuase it had been over 7 days. But it had only been 6 days, the guy couldnt add. So then he said," well its a mature title so u'll need a parent w/ u." I brought my mom to the worker, and he told her that the game had chopping off heads and blood gushing everywhere, which is true, but u can turn all of it off. So i brought up that u can turn it off, and then another worker said that it just turns the blood green and the body parts still go flying (which is a complete lie!) One of the workers told my mom that she could watch it being played, so he opened up a new hunter and put it in the xbox. The original worker told me to pick the character martyr (obviously he has hunter cuz he knows the most violent character, stupid hypocrite!.) So i picked that character and turned the blood off, and it wasnt that bad. The zombies would just die, then disappear. So my mom said i could get it, and i started looking around the store. I overheard a worker telling my mom that i would just turn the blood on when she was gone. That made me rlly mad. They were treating me like i was some bad kid! I have had the game for a day now and have always turned the blood off. Anyway, i got hunter. They had to open up the wrapper on jedi starfighter because they thought we might have taken the game out. The whole store was concentrated on me yesterday, everyone was staring. I was so embarrassed. I will never buy anything from there again!

thats funny... i was just lookin at the best buy ad and I noticed that too... I thought it might be an old ad, but PS2 lowered their price BEFORE xbox... crazy aint it? I also looked at the circuit city ad, and it has xbox's price break on the cover, but on the inside it also has PS2s maybe that is telling us that more people will buy the xbox because of the price drop... because its on the front and all, but I dont know:confused:

The whole Xbox $199 price got leaked when someone got ahold of a walmart advertisement showing the Xbox as $199. MS simply told all the big chanis this and they needed time to get it in there ads, Sony and Nintendo probably weren't too sure, and Sony WOULDNT of lowered their price unless they were 100% sure MS was going to lower theirs. And Sony just lowered theirs first to make it apprer and so consumers would thing MS was lowering their price as a retaillation...but us good Xboxers know the truth!
Here's the page for ones who havent seen the ad

I checked a shopko ad today and GC was still $199. And I think I saw another add for PS2 that was $299. I didn't see any Xbox ads...
