Best Buy discounts Xbox 360 games
It’s no surprise the economy isn’t exactly at it’s peak right now, and trust me I’m getting damn sick of hearing how horrible it is too. Best Buy probably doesn’t care if you’re sick of hearing it or not but who cares because they have recently introduced a new reduced price on several Xbox 360 games for a limited time.
The sale includes Halo 3, NBA 2K9, Shaun White Snowboarding, Midnight Club Los Angeles, and Tom Clancy’s EndWar all marked down from $59.99 to $39.99, not a bad deal if you ask me.
While they don’t list when the sale is going to end, chances are it won’t last forever so you better move fast!
NBA 2K9 Ships With no CD-Key, Fix Available
If you just so happen to purchase the recently released NBA 2K9, you are in for a surprise. When you go to install the game you will realize there is no CD-Key to be found. Why though? Well, it seems 2K Sports forgot to include one, rendering the game seemingly unplayable.
However, quickly jumping to their aid, in a statement to Shacknews, Valve announced that Steam will fix this problem allowing users to install, and play, the game regardless of a CD-Key or not, provided the retail CD is in fact in your CD drive:
Owners of the retail version of NBA 2K9 for the PC may now install their games without the CD key, provided the disc is in the drive. And those considering a purchase of NBA 2K9 may do so without concern of installation issues related to the lack of a CD key
While the game is also available for the PS3 and Xbox 360, the console version of the game remains unaffected.

NBA 2K9 on PC
Publisher 2K Sports has announced that NBA 2K9 will be released on PC alongside the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the basketball game.
"The PC version will please even the most dedicated basketball fans with the same level of quality simulation we’ve become known for in the console versions of the NBA 2K franchise," said 2K Sports development VP Greg Thomas.
Quite interestingly, 2K’s move rivals that of EA’s decision to not release PC versions of its major sports franchises this year, though it will be starting to do so from next year.
NBA 2K9 is now available on PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360.
