Discounts at Target

Every now and then Target marks some good stuff down to clearance level. We are talking up to 70% on some quality games. For example, last week, I bought Drilldozer for GBA for under $8 brand new. This week they have Geist for the Cube for only $12. I saw a lady buy 2 PSOne systems for only $38 each. Not only were they brand spanking new in the box, they included 3 games! Crash Bandicoot 2, Stuart Little, and Cool boarders 2(i think). Anywho, I noticed that those were the last 2 systems. She paid with a Paypal card which leaves me to believe that she will Ebay them. The moral of the story is to check Target weekly for clearance games. They usually keep an end cap near the other games and it usually has a good selection. Heck they even had Gran Turismo 3 for under $5. Of course everybody has that game, but still.

Not too much else going on in the world of Cow. I tried to cancel my Gamefly subscription because I haven't really been taking advantage of it. For example, I got Prey 3 weeks ago and I still have not finished it. I am near the end, but I want to beat it before I return it. So I go cancel it and they offer me $7 off my next month so I guess I'll stick it out a bit longer. I just have so many games here now. I still have yet to play level 2 of Cloning Clyde and I want to beat up some more n00bs on Street Fighter 2. So little time for all thats meant to play.

Made it to 53 in WoW. Been spending a good 2-3 hours a day on it. I'll never be able to beat the game by myself though. No matter what kind of 1337 gear I get. Bummer.

Kotaku had a cool little story on the new DragonQuest game for Wii. When Square Enix announced a DQ game at launch, I knew right away it was gonna be based on this puppy. http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/retro/plug-play-slash-192410.php. I was so tempted to buy it, but I always thought it was gimmicky and an exploit of the priceless DQ license. It turned out to be a good game though and it is right up Wii's alley. Exciting stuff.

Dead Rising is coming out this week for the 360. Not gonna get it, but it is supposed to be quality. The demo is out now. Also did I hear that Castlevania Symphony of Night is coming to Live? Goody.

Not that great of a deal. Now when Kmart was clearing out PSOne systems *with* the LCD screen for $15 total a couple of months ago, that was truly epic. :)
