Target deals as of 2/13: folklore, jericho, warhawk, RFOM

Thread Starter 
i was at target today following up on the folklore clearnce tip and found some other deals on the games mentioned in the title.

jericho 24.98 - i know it's not a wildly popular game and been a bit of a disappointment to some, but at 24.98 it may be worth a look for anyone interested.

folklore 29.98 - from what i've read it's an underground hit and i think sales haven't reflected that. anyway, $10 less than the best buy price mentioned in the add in the BB deals thread.

warhawk w/ headset 39.99 - well... it's warhawk with a headset. d@mn good game, d@mn good headset, d@mn good price.

Resistance:fall of man 39.99 - one of the most successful launch titles ever on any system, it still gets recommended on AVS to new ps3 owners and has sold well enough to maintain a 59.99 shelf price over a year after it's release.

just passing on info...

anyone know if there's a BB $10 off cupon floating around? (specifically for PS2 games).

Might have to pick up the new TM, and at $10 it's a steal.

Arent RFOM and Folklore both coming to greatest hits very soon anyway? Good price on Warhawk though, that is how much the game costs without the headset.

don't know about which stores, but since it's a major national franchise, i'd assume that it applies to more than just the store at polaris.
but yeah, i walked in and that was the price. what was a nice surpise though was that someone in the BB thread posted that target had folklore for 34.98! i got there and it was 29.98!

i freakin' love target!

Well..I will go take a look tomorrow..thanks again. I must have missed the mention of it in the BB thread.

If Folklore goes to greatest hits..does anybody know what the prices are when that happens?

The Japanese one will be priced as 3800 yen, which would be $35-$40 if you tries to import. No word on the US one yet.

It's coming there is no reason they wouldnt bring a greatest hits collection here since they have had them for the last 15 or so years. If GH is 40 bucks I am going to have to stop playing games, they will be 30 probably since that is what the xbox 360 is charging.

^ thanks for the response. After doing a little research, I figure Folklore will be about half price when it goes greatest hits here in the US . If I can pick it up at Target for that now..then no sense in waiting.

agreed, i have to think that this generations greatest hits will be in the $30-$40 range. that's why i pulled the trigger. i may not play it for a while, but $30 for for was too good to pass up.

and remember guys, when it comes to wives and games, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission!

There is no reason no to pick it up right now if you really want this title. I don't regret going for the BB deal, even though wished I could find a Target doing clearance earlier (not every location carries it or put it on clearance)

The Greatest Hits version takes a longer time frame to happen in US (since it was released in Japan way earlier than US) and the cover will be altered and most times will be uglier than the original one.

I got Folklore for $60 and it was more than worth it. Still is. And I haven't even tapped the massive amount of DLC they released for it. At $30 nobody should even be second guessing it. BUY IT.

Going to check my local Target today and pick it up! I've been wanting this game for a while now, just never pulled the trigger. I really enjoyed the demo and I'm gonna guess the actual game is just as good if not better!

Just picked up Resistance and Warhawk at local Target, $39.99 each. Thanks for the tip! I noticed Target often has these good deals without advertising them or showing those prices in their online store.

Target has these deals when they are trying to clear shelf space. Most Target's have relatively small video game sections with limited display space. With the load of games coming out in the coming months they are just trying to get rid of stuff they won't be carrying any longer. My guess is that Resistance, Folklore and Jericho are on that list.

Thanks for the tip. Just picked up Warhawk w/ headset today. My Target had Folklore for $41.98, but they also had NBA Street for $24.98. So each store may vary a little, I'm sure.

resistance and warhawk were only on sale and had the "temporary price reduction" tag on them.

folklore and jericho are on clearance, so they probably are clearing the shelf.

I stopped at Target today..they had one Folklore..$41.98 on clearance. Just like someone else posted here. No Warkawk and Resistance in stock, but the price did say $39.99 on those 2 items.

The had a couple Jericho's for $34.98, and Lair also for $39.99. I have one more Target to check in my travels tomorrow. I think you got a great deal..so's your face. I wonder if your target made a mistake? I was hoping for that deal also..but so far no luck. If I can't get it at my other target, for the price you payed for it..I will wait. I know it's a good game, but I have waited this long, so a few more months won't make a difference if it comes to greatest hits...or I can find it elsewhere for close to the same price. In the meantime, I have plenty of games to keep me busy.

someone posted in another thread that target readjusts their clearance prices every 2 weeks. you might try again in the next week or 2. or try to see if you can pull up my local ad and see if they'll price match. my zip code is 43074.
