DJ Hero Renegade $99 @ DSE. Should tide you over until that Armin van Buuren game comes out.

Holy Crapsticks - if anyone can pick me up a copy of UC2 (original art, not interested in plat.) from Game and post it I will love you forever.

I'll see if I can find one when I drop by Game tomorrow.
EDIT: Just called them up, it's in stock but it's still at $109.95 :S
I'm going there tomorrow anyway so I'll see if the price has dropped there by then.

There are a few games at DSE that are even cheaper than what Game are listing.
The $6+ postage just for one game when buying through dse.com.au kind of ruins things though

I just called GAME at Broadmeadows, Airport West and Southland - they don't have any copies of Magna Carta 2. They only have pre-owned copies of Heavy Rain, which haven't been reduced. 
Dick Smith have MGS4 for $20, lots of stores in Victoria have copies according to their site. Transformers 2 on PS3 is going for $10, but the availability is low. Lost Odyssey is going for $15, quite a few stores have copies. Soul Calibur 4 is also going for $15, there's plenty of stock in-store. Force Unleashed is $20, there's plenty of stock.

Oh Yeah, I forgot one thing. I'm pretty sure the DJ Hero Bundle is going to $49 at GAME too. Pretty sure its that price in the catalogue.
Borderlands is $30 at Dick Smith (360/PS3) and $20 on PC.

The GAME sale makes a new release game @ $119.95 look absolutely ludacris.
They have single handed killed the videogame currency in the market.

Yeah, its a double edged sword. Its great for bargains, but also makes the value of games drop hugely. It's great for us gamers, cause it lets us buy cheap games and probably more games too, but also makes our collections kinda worthless at this time. It's good and bad really.

Gamers being able to purchase games for next to nothing is never bad.

Oh I completetly agree. The only place I see gaining from this is GAME. It's getting massive exposure atm, it's free advertising and word of mouth. I have told all my family and friends that are non-gamers but own PS3/Wiis/360s to get in there and have a look. Most of them said 'what is GAME?'.
EB is the real big loser here. They need to get with times. JB/GAME have really stepped it up in the last year while EB has remained 'expensive'.

Cranbourne Game had 5 copies of Heavy Rain and 4 copies of Uncharted 2 when I called and neither of them had been discounted. Hopefully it's different when I get there tomorrow or </3

DJ Hero (with Turntable) was $24 second hand at Game. If I didn't already buy it for 4x that price I would have jumped on it.

Yep, it seems Heavy Rain hasn't been discounted in-store just yet. I mentioned that I'd heard the price had been reduced, they said it probably would be in the next catalogue (not sure when that is).

I doubt they would make a catalogue and have it last for 1 day. Anyway, I've heard it goes for a good few weeks. Probably over the School Holidays.
For all those wanting Uncharted 2 and Heavy Rain etc. I was told that the prices where being updated today and should be in there system tomorrow or Thursday.

Uncharted 2 hasn't gone platinum yet, right? I don't even have a PS3 yet but I'll buy it for that price.
Anyone tried to pricematch anything at EB just to make them feel pain?
