Newegg for games
I know newegg sells games, but not the ones I'm looking for. Are there any sites that are as reliable as newegg that is dedicated to games (PC, console games). I was thinking ebay, but if anyone has a better site it would be appreciated.

ebgames.com is too expensive for brand new retail stuff. There's a local eb games at our mall and the only thing it's good for is that it buys and sells used games. It also sells many old games in retail condition which you can't find anywhere. Also their selection changes, you can't find what's in the store on their website.

I usually buy games at Wal-Mart or Costco. Good prices.

I don't know what you mean by that, newly released games are usually the same price everywhere, unless they're Pre-Owned. |

At my local ebgames they are usually one of the higher priced retailers on brand new stuff. I can usually find better deals at Sam's Club or Wal-Mart. I just browse the shelves of ebgames to see their selection of older games which are usually marked down. It's a pretty good bargain.

Yes, Costco does sell games individually as well as builk. I like buying in bulk too. I love Costco. They great deals on a lot of stuff. And the in-store restraunt is really good and cheap. They have really good pizza. I only wish the nearest one wasn't 40 minutes away.

I don't think there are Costcos in Canada. Some of the larger ones have a decent seletion, and the smaller stores are OK, but you have to keep your eyes open as if a game is there one day you like, it may not be there the next time.

I'm not in Canada, I'm in Georgia. I've never heard of Coscos though, the only thing we have is Best Buys, Circuit City, EBgames and some other small shops possibly, but not Coscos.

They're not nation wide (yet), but I don't know what I'd do without They're a "warehouse" type of store and have a little of Best Buy, Sam's, tools, appliances, clothing, photo center, an RX, and so on inside (even burners and hard drives). It's a "club" store, as you have to be a member, but with the stuff I buy, I save at least hundreds, if not close to a thousand dollar a year shopping there. They carry a lot of different stuff, and have the best meat in town.

I agree on the getting out in the fresh air. I order pretty much all of my components and stuff from newegg because they do have excellent deals compared to stores. But usually I purchase games from local stores just to benefit them too, also newegg does not carrry a large variety of games, just some.
