    Question

    Some people on ebay and yahoo auctions have been offering to sell "information" on how to obtain the new video game Perfect Dark for $29.99. Anyone want to save me a dollar and tell me the "trick" to get it for that much/cheaper? I'm guessing its some online site/coupon discount.

    Wow, people are charging to show how to get a deal?!?! Well uh, ahem. . . whatever they're charging jrolsen, I'll charge half of, deal? Hehe, just kidding. Anyhow, one deal I know of is goto: www.valueamerica.com
    Buy it there and print out the mail in rebate. Your total will be $54.99 and subtract for a $25 MIR and grand total is $29.99. Voila! So how much do you owe me? It becomes even a greater deal if you have any value dollars left too. My friend got it for $2.50, little bitch. . . Well enjoy and off to e-bay I go. . .

    I personally love it. Haven't had much time to play but if you own a 64 this is (IMO) one of those must own games since there aren't many of them on this system. Check a review out at: http://ign64.ign.com/reviews/3906.html

    My friend has the game and he loves it. He says it's one of the best shooters he's played. I plan on getting it. Thanks for the tip at va.com.

    This game is worth getting. They have improved bond in every single aspect plus some. The weapons are great, the story line is very interesting, and the gameplay is excellent. I got it at mobshop for 45 + tax i believe.

    Crappy thing is is that you have to invest a lot in your n64 to get the dang game to have all its options... ie. you have to go buy the Xpansion Pak (20 bucks) and the memory card (about 20 too). I ended up getting them, and it was very difficult to find the xpansion pack because of the high demand from perfect dark.

    you pretty much have to buy the expansion pack but you really dont need to get the memory card. The cart itself has 4 slots on it which should be enough.

    apparently none of you looked to see how much you would get for your Nomads on ebay...

    people were selling for $5: "How to get a Nomad for $50"

    That was ridiculous

    I got Perfect Dark from www.valueamerica.com for the $54.99 less the mail in rebate of $25, so only $29.99 w/ shipping & handling on their pre-order. My brother-in-law just tried to order his and its charging him $4.99 S/H since its no longer a pre-order.

    If you want to buy it now but don't want to wait, this is what I did: I went down to Toys R Us and bought the thing the day it came out, and have been LOVING the game ever since (last night my brother and I played on the cooperative version for 8 hours straight!). Yesterday I got my valueamerica game in the mail (finally!), and I'm taking IT back to Toys R Us at lunch with my Toys R Us receipt.
    That way I get it instantly and for the $29.99 price, but it does cost my a couple of trips to Toys R US (and technically it should be Toys R We, right?).

    You NEED this game if you are a Bond (007) for N64 fan... it rocks. It also has the Complex as a level for multi player and its very fun with the Laptop Gun and some simulants!!

    Have a great day!

    HAVE FUN TAKING IT BACK TO TOYS R US.....

    My friend did a similar thing with a Sega Dreamcast for $150 online, and he wanted to play it the next day. Guess who got screwed when it came time to take it back to Toys R Us? They checked the STOCK # on the system (at least they do for consoles), so he's stuck with an extra dreamcast system. good luck tho

    I took it back no problem.. this is ancient history so who cares, right? Anyway, I took it back no problem and am well on my way to winning the game.
