Double Dose of Daily Deals: GRAW2 and Dark Sector

The second deal is less of a deal but still something to consider if you're dying to play something new. Dark Sector has popped up on Circuit City's website for $40. Whichever deal you take is up to you, but either way you'll get a decent game. Heck, go ahead and take both deals for the price of a brand new PS3 game. It's almost like a two-for-one deal. Almost.

Dark Sector demo is good times, dunno if it warrants a purchase but it's a definite rental.

I thought Dark Sector was lame, personally.
The only good thing about the Krull-esque weapon is that it retrieves stuff for you much like Link's boomerang. It has some use if you happen to run out of ammo, but otherwise, shooting people is much more efficient. It's just another shooter amid the wave of other indistinguishable shooters... aside from the Krull-blade. Yawn.
GRAW2 on the other hand is quite enjoyable. $20-30 is an awesome deal for that.

Well, personally I thought the graphics were great, the sound design is excellent and the boss battles are challenging. Even in the demo it took me forever to kill the boss. It's too bad they didn't release the demo 2 months ago before the game came out.
Again, I advise everyone to try the demo, you may end up liking it. Graw2 felt like a chore, I ebay'ed it.

Different strokes for different folks.
If you don't like tactical shooters then no, you won't like GRAW2.
Maybe I'll give the Dark Sector demo another try... I did quit before the end of the demo. Playing the first 5 or 10 min, it just seemed like yet another shooter with some gimmick tacked on.

I submitted a news tip a few days ago that Dark Sector was $39.99 at FutureShop.ca and retail locations here in Canada, but I guess that's not newsworthy since it's Canada.

GRAW 2 is only $20 new at Circuit City. Definitely worth the purchase. Amazing graphics and cinematic gameplay.. online is ok, but is nice considering how huge the story mode is.

Circuit City has Graw2 for $20

It's "Out of stock online"

Circuit City right now has a deal where you buy 2 $19.99 games for only $30 (online only with free s/h). So you can get that GRAW2 game from Circuity City along with some other $19.99 PS2 or PSP game for only $30.

With the precipitous drop in price with certain non-blockbuster titles, I'm going to have to sit back and wait instead of using $10 off coupons. Condemned 2 even dropped down to $40 and that hasn't even been out that long either. -_-
Lars @ May 5th 2008 8:41PM
It's true, there have been quite a few price drops lately, quite early in game's lifecycles. I hope we don't experience another video game market crash like the early 80's...

Dark Sector rocks after the first few stages!
Mike @ May 5th 2008 10:17PM
Both these games are garbage... im out

GRAW2 is great. I've completed it twice now, second time on the hardest mode. Great fun.

Graw 2 is great. The multiplayer is loads of fun. Dark Sector: I've only played the demo, and wasn't impressed. Nice graphics, but the enemies are dumb as dirt, and the final boss battle is ridiculous. You can walk over to a corner of the church, and he never finds you! Lame.
