Woot, ok, thanks for the tips everyone, I'll make the rounds again looking for the COV CE...

I lucked out and found that sitting on a shelf in circuit city when they were going out of business. Was a nice surprise to find without even looking.

I did the same thing, except the box was still priced at 70 bucks. It's no wonder they went out of business!

That had nothing to do with why they went out of business. The first thing a liquidation company does when they take over the store closing is set -All- prices to full retail. Even the items that are selling for $10 before the closing sale starts. People think that they are getting a deal, so they are willing to buy that "20% off" item that was just marked up 40% two days earlier. Unless you are shopping in the final weeks, you are overpaying for everything.

It was the original price tag on a faded box. Heh.

Around... November? I found for a mere five bucks off (so 55USD still) Auto Assualt CE.
WHen I asked a rep why they still had a game that cannot be played due to the servers it requires to run being shut down 8 months ago, I was told they often keep older software for older computers O.o

Heh. Just a month or two ago, Fred Meyer here still had Tabula Rasa on their shelves still at full price. I brought this to their attention, and they said that they can't pull stuff from their inventory until they got the command from on high to do so (in other ords, it was out of their hands until their corporate overlords told them to get rid of it.)
