When it comes to video games I am obsessive-compulsive about beating them. If I start a game I must finish it. No matter how bad, or how hard it is I will not rest until the ending credits have rolled across the screen. Like Bruce Hornsby says ... that's just the way it is!

If you�ve been waiting for the right time to buy Street Fighter 4, MadWorld, or Animal Crossing: City Folk, now is the time to do so, because GameStop has temporarily dropped them all down to only $19.99. For six days only, from July 28th until August 2nd, GameStop is dropping the entire list of games below to $20, and there are a lot of really good games on that list.

I don�t know about the rest of you, but I�m going to pick up a copy of Street Fighter 4 for the PS3 and MadWorld for the Wii. I�m heading there as soon as the stores open at 10AM. Are any of you gonna take advantage of these awesome deals?

JACK of No Trades

Thanks man. SF4 will be a steal!

JerinsFury

SF4 and Madworld for me. Maybe FEAR as well.

Senisan

I recently bout 50 Cent: Blood in the Sand for 14.98 at target on clearance. Now, all i need is someone to share the hilarity with in the coop mode.

DaedHead8

Except for the Wii version of Jungle Beat I already own everything I would want off of that list. Any Wii owners that haven't picked up Excite Bots should definitely do so. It's my favorite racing game on the Wii, hands down.

SilverDragon1979

I just got back from GameStop where I picked up 2 copies of SF4 for the PS3, and a copy of MadWorld.

So I really only have one question: Who wants to get their ass handed to them in SF4 tonight?

CWal37

Looks like I'll be getting SF4.

Overcrowd

I lost my SFIV so this is the perfect time to pick me up another... Thanks for the tip, man. :D

JACK of No Trades

Two copies?

SuitcoatAvenger

Nice on SF4. Might have to do some o' that. Shame Silent Hill is only for 360.

Oh, and Wanted wasn't $20 already? That's surprising.

SilverDragon1979

@Jack: I picked up a second copy of SF4 for one of my friends.

zombiekiller13

Might be time to grab Silent Hill...

JACK of No Trades

@Silver, Thats nice of you.

SilverDragon1979

Does anyone know if LAIR is worth getting since they patched the controls that actually make the game playable? I have always wanted to play it, but never did thanks to the horrible reviews. I know they patched the controls though, so I am curious if the game is worth getting now.

FalconReaper

@ SilverDragon

No, apparently it still sucks.

Drachula64

Hell I might finally pick up my own copy of MadWorld

DaedHead8

@SilverDragon

I don't know as I haven't played it, but I do plan on buying it when I buy a PS3, if only for its notoriety.

Corak

Hmm I'm not much of a fighter fan but $20 for SF4 is a steal, also I'll probably pick up Mad World as well, and maybe Wanted too, for $20 it might be worth it.

JohnnyViral

Looks like im going to get me some FEAR and SFIV

Guagloves

I might pick up Warioland and Excitebots.

Blasto

I bought Lair last year for reasons similar to what Daedhead mentioned. Yes it sucks. Ass.

Bulkmailer

Awwww. You guys are so lucky, nothing for me here. :(

pascuz46

I wonder if this also does for EB games in Canada. That would be nice. I would probably pick up SF4, Ive been hankering for a fighting game.

Zippyduda

:) Good to see your getting on the SFIV train. You got any room on your friends list Dragon?

grassr00ts

Thanks for the heads up! I picked up SFIV, and put it on goozex :P

vexed alex

MadWorld just turned into a buy.

Dao2-SKP

madworld is also $20 on amazon if u missed it at gamestop ;p along with deblob if ur looking to get the free shipping, a double package of awesome

SilverDragon1979

If anyone wants to challenge me to a game of Street Fighter 4, my PSN ID is SilverDragon1979. Feel free to add me!

CWal37

Just got my copy, I just hope you're as bad as I am.

megamonki

is it $20 for used and new or just used?

SilverDragon1979

@Megamonki: They are all brand new games for $20, not used.
