Several people may know about http://www.play-asia.com, but if you don't then it may be worth a look. Especially if your interested in 360 games. Most of them are under $40 (ie. Farcry, GRAW, Tomb Raider, COD2..) I've heard from a friend who got them that they're identical to his US copies (bar code, language and descriptions except that they have a extra sticker on the outside plastic cover. They have to be games that are "region-free" which is pretty much all of them, except for jap games which seem to be all region locked.
So if your looking to buy Tomb R, or one of the new titles this may be worth looking at. In case your wondering, I was told that they work fine online (US servers) and achievements.
Here's the guide which shows which games are US capable (we're the NTSC-U/C column). Though not all of the titles seem to be listed. Cost is around $40 per game w/ $3 shipping (taking around a week to arrive)
**EDIT**
I forgot to mention that if you pay with paypal, you can use the $5 discount code: GO-PAY-PAL Works only on orders of $40+ which isn't hard since thay have good asian candy. So in the end it'll cost around $40 for a game and shipping.
Bestbuy has Gamefly 2 month trials for 11.95 online (normally $22 month) saving 75% for those two months. Great deal in itself if your wanting to rent any console game.
BUT... if you can make it into a bestbuy, get ahold of a coupon book they hand out at the front for a $10 coupon off this item. Taking it to $2 for two months:) You'll want to order it online for the in-store pickup option since it's $20 in the actual stores. You then have them price-match and apply coupon.
You can buy as much as they will allow, you can cancel account before the 2 months are up, and start a new 2 month trial (change Credit card, address/names don't effect anything).
So if you want to spend some time, you can get 12 months of Gamefly for $12. Remember it's 2 games out at a time, not to shabby if I can say so! This won't last long, but when things get CRACK'N it may come in very very handy to some.
