PSA: Gamefly has a ton of Wii and 360 games for under $10 photo

You wouldn't know it by looking at my credit card bills, but I have never been a member of GameFly. I have, however, racked up a bunch of meager transactions over the years whenever they try to pawn off their excess videogames with crazy sales.

Today is another one of those days where GameFly wants the garbage games out of its sight. Quite a few Xbox 360 and Wii titles were marked down to prices below $10, and hold on a second -- some of them aren't half bad. Heck, some are even good.

A few that caught my eye were Ninja Gaiden II, Mercenaries 2, Pure, and Far Cry 2. All of those are $9.99 shipped. And if drunken hobo fights bring you entertainment -- they're my specialty -- Condemned 2 is worth grabbing at $6.99.

Remember these are pre-played games. With that said, out of the numerous purchases I have made from GameFly, not once have I had any issues crop up. I'd also urge fellow bargain hunters to look at their other wares; you'd be surprised how low these prices tend to be.

Yes, I do realize this post reads like an infomercial. Is my check in the mail, guys?

But do they have original cases and books and all that?

Far Cry 2 is alright...but pretty far from the 2nd coming of Christ Anthony made it out to be.
Other then that, not much here, except maybe Dark Sector. That game wasn't THAT awful; I thought it was fun for a playthrough or two.

There are PS3 titles, too. No idea why they were omitted.

I disagree with Shadowiii; FarCry 2 is indeed, as Anthony's Rev Rant hinted at, the second coming of Christ.

And I still haven't finished it yet. That's how good it is.

Is it sad that the only one I'm really considering is Sonic Unleashed for the Wii?

Possibly Far Cry 2, but how many people actually still play that game online on the PS3?

Even though I'm the only person in the world who believes so, Far Cry 2 is just about my favorite game of this generation. It's so incredibly flawed and I honestly have a hard time playing it, but oh how I love it. Ahhhhh.

Having purchased quite a few games from gamefly, I have to agree that their games show up in pretty good shape.

Sure, there are six PS3 titles under $10. But those aren't part of this newish promotion. The little newsletter-style email GF sent out specifically highlighted only 360 and Wii games for this temporary sale.

Please don't turn this into a silly argument.

Gross. You couldn't pay me to play most of those games.
Gamefly should buy a landfill in New Mexico and be done with them.

Buy FarCry2 just so you can drive a Jeep around the user created Jurassic Park. Fun for the nostalgic lulz.

Far Cry 2 is worth $10 as is a few of those other games.

If you haven't try Condemned 2, now's your chance, I really love that first person brawler game :D

I'm wondering: Do I need to play the original Condemned before I play Condemned 2? (You know what I mean...)

@runtheplacered

Like Jordan said, the PS3 selection is very sparse, and was not advertised because of that.

Goddamnit, places need to stop having sales. This past weekend, I just bought 3 games for less than $30 all together, thanks to massive sales like this. And Black Friday's coming up next week.....I think I'll have to pass, so my wallet can rest.

SON OF A BITCH. Condemned 2 is out.
Sad face up in this.

I picked up Need for Speed Undercover. I know it's supposed to suck, but I loved Most Wanted WAY more than I should have. I'm just hoping it can fill a little hole in my racing free time, and at half the price of Gamestop, wtfn?
