How is Kung Fu Chaos?
decent. lacks depth, but has some cleverly designed minigames/levels. multiplayer probably wouldn't last too long since all of the characters play the same. probably worth $10 if it's your kind of thing. it has absolutely atrocious sense of humor (but you can turn off the commentary in the options) and poor character designs.

i hear there is a co-op mode in KFC. Can't remember how to do it.

I'm interested in Max Payne for Xbox, and R: Racing Revolution for GC, as well as XIII for GC.

Are any of these worth $9.99? Actually I'm not exactly lacking in the great games to play catagory so they need to be worth a lot more than $9.99.

Someone said that the prices were scanned at a higher price on a couple games at their Best Buy, so these might not be nationwide (yet). YMMV

Good luck getting any of these. The two local Best Buys I checked had Whiplash. Lots of Whiplash.




Well, I did kind of want to play Whiplash.

I only found Onimusha Tactics. I've never played a tactics game before, so this will be interesting.

Noticed that there were 5 copies of Tales of Symphonia as well. If I had the money I would have grabbed one but alas it is not quite payday.

The wife and I are playing through Whiplash right now. The humor is pretty good, love the bunny. It's a little glitchy too, so save often.

Wario does it again, folks. Thanks Wario.

I just picked up The Simpsons: Hit and Run for Gamecube. They had at least a dozen left and they were all marked $39.99. When I brought it to the counter the guy was pretty surprised.

I didn't notice that Onimusha Tactics was also $10. I should have picked that up as well. Theres always tomorrow.

A Best Buy in near me opened just last Friday (Colma, CA)! I can't wait to check it out!

Oh yeah I remember seeing it under construction a couple of months back. It's where the United Artists Cinemas used to be, right across from the Home Depot in the Metro Center. Now there's another Best Buy for me to swing by when I'm in that area...hehe. ^_^

Yep, where the theatre used to be. I'm very happy about this, because Best Buy would usually have something if Circuit City didn't, and the atmosphere is just much easier for me (if the San Carlos and Palo Alto locations are any indication). Overall, I'm pleased.

Hopefully I'll tour the place tomorrow and maybe even find a "Now Hiring" sign somewhere. :)

EDIT: And this makes three places to price match in the area. CC, TRU and now BB. :)

How is R: Racing?

Picked up R Racing, XIII and Grabbed by the Ghoulies yesterday all $9.99. So far XIII is the best of them all but I also spent some time with R Racing. I think it's a decent game over all. Good FMVs, an interesting style and some good levels. Visuals are not the best but not bad by any means. It runs in progressive scan and DPLII so you can't lose there. I would recommend it. I like the series and this one, while different, still has a similar feel to the previous titles.
