Thanks TallGeese for the thread and everyone else for the hot deals.

I picked up an XBOX for my son for Christmas and would like some recommendations on the $20.00 and less bargain games. Trying to fill his stocking with games but not all at $50.00 a pop....

I got the Sega bundle,Halo,Madden NFL 2003, DVD remote and the live kit with memory card. I guess I should pick up some good online games too....I know that might cost more than the $20.00 though.....

I'm just trying to be the best Santa I can be....Thanks, Ed

Try posting this to the DVD Talk Video Game forums: http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?forumid=15

You'll probably get better response there.

Just for those who were wondering, I spoke to a CSR and the XBox Bundle did qualify for the DVD rebate.

If you want to save, take back Madden and get the superior (IMO ) NFL2k3 for $20 less.

And NFL 2K3 has Live! capability where Madden does not. I recommend MechAssault as the best online game so far.

Robotech Battlecry $29.99 at Target B&M. Xbox only version is at this price.

 

[LeStEr]

XRdirtHead - Some of the cheaper games that I recommend are : Amped, Rallisport Challenge, NFL Fever 2k3 (My fav football game for xbox and its Live compatible), Dead or Alive 3 and Fuzion Frenzy (If he plays with alot of friends).

 

[Runciter]

Just rented Ghost Recon, and wow that game rocks on Live! Looking for some deals on it... anyone?

 

[dealmaker]

Milpitas Walmart has the Xbox with 3 free games out already.

Sega GT
JSRF
Amped

all for 199

Sux I bought mine two weeks ago. Now they pull this sh!t. Screw MSFT. I am a haxor my machine

 

[Prismic]

I saw Ty the Tasmanian Tiger at my local Target for $27.88. As always, YMMV

 

[bickle]

Has anyone received their Unreal Championship order from fye.com? A few pages back it was priced at $29.99, but they still haven't shipped yet (at least to me).

 

[telstar1]

Buy.com has lowered the price of the MS Xbox High Definition AV Pack - Buy.com - $18.99 (posted 08-13-02) to $16.99.

It's a Walmrt only deal. And if it's that big of a deal for you, exchange the packages.

 

[MaximusH825]

Can anyone post scans of the ads for the Walmart and Toys-R-Us deals? I'm going to Best Buy today to pick up an XBox and would really like to get in on this, especially with a 10% pricematch! Thanks.

Also, I didn't see, but has it been confirmed that the DVD rebate deal works on the Sega Jet Radio/GT 500 bundle?

 

[loopy26]

Starwars Starfighter SE, 7.49 at Target. YMMV of course! (in MD)

Not sure if anyone has posted this yet, TRU (b&m only) is having a deal where you get:

-Xbox Sega Bundle
-NFL Fever 2k3
-Spider-Man
-Intec Black Cyber Pad 2
-Intec Programmable Controller


So, you get all of that for $249.96 and then you could send in the $10 off for NFL 2k3, so it would be $239.96 (before taxes obviously, and valid from 11/17-11/20)

So is that 4 games and 3 controllers, then?

Affirmative

no, i'ts not, unless i just got a really pissy CSR, i only was able to receive 1 controller as he told me it was a "misprint" that you'd get both the black cyber pad and the programmable controller, screw that shite

 

[SrikanthAG]

Wow, what a POS, talk about fraudulent advertising then. Misprint my ass.

I don't think its made by the same people as Rallisport challenge. Because its out on PS2 too.

Review I saw smacked it pretty hard. Mainly for control issues.
Rallisport Challenge still the Xbox champ!

^ for the evening crowd

 

[Tom61]

Kabuki Warriors is now at Wal-Mart for $19.92 (may have been $19.82, I forget which)
X-box Exhibition is also there for $4.99

Definately get the Exhibition disc if you haven't, 10 demos (the DOA 3 booster has time-attack enabled), music that can be saved directly to HD, and videos of games, and a few G4 TechTV episodes (including how to do the jumping jeep trick in Halo).

If you subscribe to OXM with the demo disc, all the demos have been released already on various of those discs. Prolly most of the videos too.

The music and G4 episodes would be unique...but prolly not enough new stuff for even as little as $5 IMHO.

However, this could be a GOOD stocking stuffer for NEW Xbox owners.
Great way to check out titles before buying/renting.

Of course, BETTER stocking stuffer would be a subscription to OXM, IMHO

thanks for the heads-up Tom!
