Best Buy Haul
Well, I didn't get Soul Calibur IV. Did any of you guys? Our Best Buy was sold out of Infinite Undiscovery too.

I didn't get there right when the store opened, so it's partly my fault. However, the employees lamented to me that there were only two copies of it to begin with, so maybe it's just as well. Fighting over 2 copies of a game with video game nerds is not my idea of fun anyway, and I would have been LIVID if I was waiting before the store opened and still didn't get a copy.

I called 3 other Best Buys when I got home. Sold out. So was the website- couldn't even have one shipped to me. I guess I'm simply not meant to have Soul Calibur IV right now. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before there's another good deal on it though.

Anyway, I decided on a $50 budget to put some games on my credit card, and here's what I ended up getting:

007: Quantum of Solace
C&C 3: Red Alert
Guitar Hero III
Supreme Commander
Unreal Tournament III

The only one I've played so far is Quantum of Solace. Quantum is a pleasant surprise- the graphics are very detailed, I like the soundtrack, and the gameplay is similar to Gears of War. It also came with a free 007 t-shirt, which I definitely plan on wearing.

Ended a bust when I went, but that's fine; grabbed a copy of Order of Ecclesia for 20% off at the SFIV tournament, though, and that's pretty much better to me than what I could've gotten (okay, well, Soul Caliber would've been great, but price standards trending should knock at least $10 off of it from now on).

Aww, man. I'm glad you got a good deal on OoE though. The GBA/DS Castlevanias are generally great games.

Yeah, there will be other deals on SC4. If nothing else, it's almost inevitable it will go Platinum Hits.
