Are those the prices right now or the prices as of a certain date in the future? I have ~$63 in Best Buy gift cards and Battlefield 2142 is much more attractive to me at half price.

Pfffttt...these guys aren't man enough for Guild Wars Nightfall, even at $20. Go ahead, prove me wrong. :wink:

These prices are good right now. I assume they will disappear after close of business Saturday.

Picked up Medieval TW 2 last night for $20. Pulled the gift card trick to get the coupon for $5 off. Felt like a total cheapskate doing it, and almost got the same cute cashier the second time through which would have been totally embarrassing, but in the end it was worth it to get a month-old game for a bargain bin price.

Don't feel like a cheapskate. I've done the same trick (when the store was not busy) only I bought the gift card, tore off the coupon and used it the next transaction without leaving the line or changing cashiers.

No no, you should definitely feel like a cheapskate. But that's ok. There's nothing wrong w/ it.
