LOL @ Gamestop
My old COD 4 disc got ****ed up and won't play. So, I've been waiting for several months.....like about a month after COD 5 came out.......to buy a used copy of COD 4. The price has been horribly high - $45 for used when I could pay $50-$60 for it brand new.

So, I waited.....and waited.....and waited for the price to come down on the used ones. Walked into Gamestop last night to get something for my son, just thought I would look at the COD 4 and see.....nope, still $45 for a used copy - nearly 2 years after it has been out mind you.

Checking out the other 360 games, I come across a brand new, COD 4 Game of the Year edition for.....$39. I laughed a little bit, and turned to the two guys running the place - "Why can I buy a used one for $45, but I can buy a new one here for $40?"

Their response: "The used price just hasn't come down yet."

I doubt the guys in the store have any control over it.

Oh, I'm sure they don't. Corporate more than likely sets all the prices, which is why he said the used price hasn't come down.

Probably waiting to have some promotion involving the used games and they don't want to be out of old games once the promotion comes out (probably memorial day blowout)

I've honestly talked to about 4 different game stores about why the price is still so high and the short version is.....the price will come down when people stop buying the game.

Just tells you about the popularity of the game. It's still my #1 on 360 followed by Mass Effect at #2.

I know......and it's why I want to get it again. I should have just bought the damn thing last night. They did tell me that the price probably won't come down until about month before MW2 comes out.

Best Buy has it on sale this week at $39.99

They are also advertising a pre order for Modern Warfare 2 (November?)

If you preorder ($5 deposit) you save $10 on any game priced $39.99 and up.

Therefore you get COD4 for $34.99 out the door, brand new.

That would make sense if Mass Effect wasn't priced at $19 right now.

Sorry. Misunderstood ya there. I thought you were saying ME was the second most popular game or something like that. I've never played it so I know nothing about it other than its cheap price.
