Our favorite doggie detective and his side kick rabbit are back! Telltale announced today that the Sam & Max series will be launched on Xbox Live Arcade on Wednesday 10/14. Read more to see the official press release.
During a visit to my local CVS in North Bergen, NJ, I noticed something quite interesting in one of the aisles. It seems CVS is starting to sell video games at this particular location. The game that was on sale was the Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock Guitar / Game Bundle for the Wii for a damn good price of $49.99, especially when you compare GameStop is selling the same bundle for $79.99. Looks like Christmas is coming early for some lucky boys & girls!
One of the best horror games of 2008, Dead Space is currently selling on Amazon for $18.99. This deal is too good to pass up, so if you’re looking to add another great game to your 360/PS3 library, make sure you add EA’s Dead Space. Trust me!
Fans of Bethesda and 2K Games, rejoice! Oblivion Elder Scrolls IV and Bioshock are coming bundled on one disc on July 7th for $39.99 for the Xbox 360 and $29.99 for PC. Winner of over 80 Game of the Year awards combined between the two. We can’t express how great this value is, and speaking directly for Oblivion, which happens to be my all time favorite RPG on a next-gen console, you won’t be disappointed. Dragon Warrior is still the top!
Refugee’s post yesterday concerning Sony slashing prices on the PS3 still may come, but right now Amazon has a deal worth checking out. Their 80gb PlayStation 3’s are on sale from $400 to $349. It may not be the $100 off you were expecting but this is deal is now, and who knows when or if the $100 off will come.
These bow ties are too tight
We love free stuff. I’m sure you love free stuff. We’d like to give you free stuff, with our Legendary “Caption Contest”. We are working with EA on this promotion for Star Trek mobile, and with a (funny) caption in this contest you’ll win some free Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 merchandise from us. What’s the relation you ask? Simple. Sci-fi. That’s it!
It’s been a while since we last treat you guys with some Ghostbusters: The Video Game screenshots. In case you forgot, it will be released next month on June 16th. While the screenshots below are from the PS3 version, we plan to review the Wii version as well as the Xbox 360 game. We’ve been covering the game in past months and feel June will be a bigger month for coverage (post E3 of course).
For those of you who had the “Gotta Have It” cards back in 1992, Pepsi has brought that glorious summer feeling back. Starting June 2nd, if you look under the cap of specially marked Pepsi products, you could win Rock Band 2 merchandise.
As part of the “Drink Up, Rock Out” promotion, fans who see a Rock Band icon on specially-marked packages of 20-ounce and 1-liter bottles of Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Pepsi Max and other Pepsi products are encouraged to look under the cap for a code and then go to www.PepsiRockBand.com to enter the code for a chance to win prizes. During the promotion, MTV and Pepsi will give away a Rock Band(R)2 Special Edition bundle every hour and thousands of Rock Band downloadable tracks each day. Additionally, fans can enter a weekly sweepstakes for opportunities to win a trip to a Harrah’s Entertainment property, Xbox 360 Consoles and other great prizes.
I’ll admit, I had a card. While I tried collecting enough points to either get a Pepsi bag or some foam insulation drink holder I never cashed in. That’s the problem with those “earn” gift promotions, very few customers follow through. But with this promotion, you can instantly win a voucher for Rock Band 2 downloable content vouchers. Or better yet, an Xbox 360. There’ll be far and few of those, and I’m sure none of the staffers here at PerezStart.com will win that prize. But hey, “Drink Out, Rock Up” err, “Drink Rock, Up Out” I think it’s “Drink Up, Rock Out” with your drink out!
It’s coming Monday, May 18th — Punch-Out!! Wii. Who said you couldn’t wait till the 2nd to last day to pre-order something? Amazon has come to the rescue for you slackers who waited till the last moment to pre-order. (hmm, some of writers included)
