Video Gaming Junkie (lol) looking for consoles and games, suggestions?

The consoles are going to be about the same price no matter where you buy them.

Costco sometimes has a good deal on bundles so try them first. Otherwise, Bestbuy, Target, etc. doesn't matter.

Games - if you're OK with used games, go to Gamestop. Sign up for an Edge card. It's $20 but that includes a 1 year subscription to Game Informer. The Edge Card gets you 10% off any used game in the store (or on their website.) It also stacks with other deals, so when they hold their "buy 2, get 1 free" sale, I usually pick up 6 to 9 games :-D

I've also started shopping on Glyde (glyde.com) It's another user-to-user sale site. Prices are sometimes lower than Gamestop, but more of your money goes to the seller. While Gamestop also buys games from people they only give you a few bucks - if that.

Another option is renting games. Gamefly (gamefly.com) is to games what Netflix is to DVDs. Like Netflix you pay a flat fee each month. You can have up to 2 games out at a time, but you can go through as many games as you want (or as fast as your mail system can handle them.) Like Netflix you can also keep games out as long as you want - again you just pay the monthly subscription fee. This is a good way to try out a game, or play a very short game without having to buy it.

Hey, I found this site to be pretty decent. They have a 30day return policy in

case you don't like what you ordered. They have other electronics etc on the site,

but a real nice selection of video game consoles and individual games for different

platforms including xBox 360 and Nintendo Wii. Check it out @ http://www.keysetsystems.com/

IF not Amazon try Half.com...they're linked to ebay I beleive...
