Thanks to some of my Twitter friends (gadgetman007 and Mehar Gill), I was steered to this little deal at newegg! $7.99 with free shipping, not bad. Looks like Newegg is clearing out some of their games stock. It might be a good time to check em’ out since I noticed a lot of other games going for a sub $10 price w/ free shipping. It’s funny that I find my self with this game as I was bashing it just a few days ago. My recent doting about Split Second got people talking about a similar game slated for the same release window: Blur (Bizarre Creations). Watching a recent developer diary video for the title got me feeling a bit wishy washy about it so I was going to take a “wait and see” approach to the game. There seems to be a lot more compelling software up for grabs. Then I made the alleged mistake of saying “I mean they did make geometry wars but… they also made The Club” (referring to Bizarre Creations). Then I was I was hit by a barrage of people telling me that The Club is good! I based my statement on the yawn inducing demo. So let’s see if it can capture me with it’s high score-perfect run replayability.
I figure it’s worth the less-than-a-rental price to entertain my curiosity. Now to find the time to play it… don’t worry, I’ll squeeze it in!
I always forget about NewEgg. I should start looking over there a little more. I like cheap games!
I also picked up Project Gotham Racing 4 yesterday morning for $9.99 w/ free shipping. I can’t stop, I’m hooked on these newegg deals! They seem to be the place to go for older games.
