Channel checks from my local K-Mart & Wal-Mart:

Quest - still displayed very predominantly in both stores. Wal-Mart had second shipment of 12 carts in. K-Mart clerk did not know how many had been sold but said that is was popular.

WCW/NWO - Player's Choice advertising seems to be working. Both stores clerks had noticed strong sales of "wrestling games", including WCW/NOW and WarZone. Could not get a count of how many they had sold recently. WalMart was temporarily out of WCW/NWO but expected more in today.

Granstream Saga - Not available at WalMart. K-Mart still had 10 left of an original 12 received. Very slow sales.

Also looked for BASS or Brunswick, but neither one had been stocked at either store. The amount of fishing and hunting titles they did have amazed me. Gonna be a tough sell to get noticed as one of 10 fishing titles on the shelf.

Has anyone out there purchased "Ghost in a Shell"? What are your impressions? I know it is a "old" game already, but I am thinking of buying it after seeing it in a Best Buy a couple weeks back.
