As of now the Gamer's Grind is having some RADICAL price changes. From now forward all games that have a Suggested Retail price of $40 or over will be 25% lower as our regular price. Games with a suggested retail between 32 to 39.99 will be 15% lower than suggested retail and all other games will be 10% lower.

The amount may possibly go up to get the free passes next month depending on how things go.

Board Game Tournaments.

Tournaments at The Gamer's Grind: I am working on setting up board game Tournaments at the Grind including popular games like Dominion, Settlers of Catan etc. I wanted do what I call Iron Man Tournaments. Basically players will play a series of different but somehow related games and points would be awarded to the winnners. One for example I am considering is a Iron Man Race game which would include a series of games such as Formula D, Hot Rod Racers, Robo Rally, Galaxy Trucker and a couple others.
