JB Hifi has just kicked off a massive video game sale that runs until Sunday, taking 20% off every single game in the store.
The offer excludes bundles and accessories but, regardless, this is a pretty slick deal, and just in time for Thursday late night shopping.
My poor wallet. It weeps. Have mercy!

Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 11:26 AMHmmm… might have to check this out, there were a few games I let through to the keeper earlier this year and this might be a good time to pick them up.

Their Friends and Family sale didn’t at any rate. I tried to get Uncharted 3 mega edition then :P

Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 12:53 PMJust had a look at my local, not much on offer really.
SSF4AE caught my eye, but otherwise…

Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 12:55 PMJust picked up Resident Evil 5 and Just Cause 2 at JB in Galeries in Sydney for $46.40 (20% off marked prices of $29 each).
I note they still have 2 for $40 on some items, I don’t know if the 20% off applies to that deal, though it’s worth noting for anyone interested they have Blazblue Calamity Trigger in boxes including 2 xbox controller skins for $29 if anyone’s interested.
I also noticed Homefront for $49 (which might still be too much considering the universally “meh” reviews the game got) as well as Read dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare for $39 apiece.
Since there’s nothing really coming out this week it’s worth checking out JB for anything good you missed over the last year.

Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 4:29 PMJust got back from Melbourne’s Bourke St store. The 20% applies to the two for $40, so that’s two for $32.
Some good games in the pile too: Mass Effect 2, Resident Evil 5 Gold, Metro 2033, Burnout Paradise.

Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 2:19 PM… and the retailers want us to believe they don’t have massive mark ups on games. You think they’re selling them at a loss at this sale?
Neil Williams
Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 2:56 PMOdds are that they are. JB operates off having cheap prices to draw people in to buy additional products with a higher mark-up.

Thursday, August 18, 2011 at 3:01 PMPity then that I always go into JB specifically for those sale items.

Friday, August 19, 2011 at 10:57 AMDespite this, it is still cheaper to import games or buy digital copies.
