Taiko Drum Master set is $20 at BestBuy.com; buy it now!
Last night, we received word from the ever resourceful CAG forums (registration required) that the Taiko Drum Master bundle with drum peripheral was on sale for $19.99 at BestBuy.com. If you've never played Taiko Drum Master, it's one of the best rhythm/music party games you can find for the PS2. Think of it as a cross between DDR and Donkey Konga... all right, Namco made Donkey Konga for Nintendo, too, but Taiko's played with two sticks, just like the real Japanese instruments!
[UPDATE: online stock sold out. Thanks, Peak. Try in-store?]
Hey, and if you can find the drums actually in-stock at a local BB (good luck), you can save on shipping AND possibly get the set for half off� that�s right: ten whole bucks! Barring that, just grab one of those discount coupons from McDonald�s (also CAG) and pick up the set for fifteen if it�s still twenty in stores. But make sure to grab two�your gaming buddies will be very sad if they can�t play with a drum of their own. (Clearance-priced alternatives are pretty rare in EB/GameStops nowadays, so $20 is a great deal for the game and drum.)
Speaking from personal experience, I picked up two such bundles from EBgames.com when they offered it for the same price a little while back, and I�ve seen more non-gamers give the game a try and love it than even DDR (and the game reviewed well even when the bundle was $60). Please consider it. And, trust me, there�s nothing like banging away on those dedicated drums when playing with a friend. It�s just a really loud game. Naturally.
