I got some overstock on this I am blowing out. I want to limit it to 5 per customer though. Also note these are NON-Platinum Hits. All games are new and factory sealed as well.
Use code freetoship to get free shipping. Minimum order for this coupon is $30.
Enjoy.

Meh, I would get it if I could get 4, because the only reason I would use them is for my LAN parties and the coop on different tvs. I may grab one though.

Grr... I didnt think of the LAN users. I changed this to a limit of 5 but PLEASE no dealers. I hope that more than 3 CAGers can get in on the deal.
I only have about 20 of these.

It's a decent game. It suffered big time because some morons got it in their head that it would be the next Halo. This built up a lot of hype and when it didn't deliver a Halo experience, it was branded as crap.
Granted, it's not a 9/10 game, but it's a solid 7 at the very least. If it had been made as an FPS game rather than third person, I think it would have been better (and performed better, saleswise).
Definitely worth a look at $10. Just trying to find something else to add to the cart.

Order it and in the checkout process, you can select in-store pickup.

Microsoft did that to themself. Every issue of OXM said it was the next Halo

The game was much better than the word of mouth it got. It was over-hyped and under-delivered.. but it's still a very solid co-op shooter game.
If only Hawk (I think that's the stealth girl's name) had any sort of usefulness...

Ugh... I thought the game was complete crap. Not even worth the $10.

Is the multiplayer only system link? Or is there some sort of splitscreen?

Is in-store credit card still an option with Cash on Pickup? I know the question seems a little dumb, but I'm curious if its just a label you used for the in-store pickup option.

Hey, Defender, you need to stop having deals on games right after I get them some other way. First there was Viewtiful Joe, now this...

I actually thought this game was better than Halo. Of course like Halo I refused to play this game anything but 2 players, but unlike Halo this game could also be played co-op 3 or 4 players. The variety of characters was nice too adding some decent replay value, although I found myself playing as Brutus over and over again anyway. My real question is how you could find Hawk useless... to each his own, but one of my friends that I played the game with pretty much mastered that character and was very good at vanishing and using her special "1 hit kill" attack.
Anyway if you don't own this game and have never played it, at $9.99 it's kind of pointless to rent, so just buy it.

Maybe I just didn't spend enough time with her... but the game just wasn't set up for a stealh kill like that.. it was more run and gun for the majority of the game.
And compared to how easy it was to snipe, and how powerful the big guy and the lizard were.. I found her totally useless.

Well I ordered 4 of them from you, even if the game is not that great it will still be fun playing coop on 4 tvs.
Can anyone tell me, is the system link limited to one user per xbox like in Rainbow six or is it like Halo were you can have 4 players per Xbox when linked?
If I can play 2 on 2 via sys link, I'll buy this game again.

if only chains would let us do that, and use giftcards too.

Its 2 per xbox for a maximum of 8 people in LAN. So a mix between the two games you mentioned.

Excellent, 2 is what I play anyway :)

its a decent game, I went into buying mine from Target knowing not to expect Halo, so I have been pleased with it so far 8)

I know a lot of customers who bought this and didnt like FPS games liked BF. Some people cant take the FPS modes.
Brute Force plays and controls very similar to Halo except it is NOT FPS. You see your character. This is the main difference.

Or maybe you played 1 player, I can see how it'd be very difficult to do some of the stealth kills without proper distraction on the enemies.

I guess I never did try her out in co-op.. I went through it single player first and found her so worthless I didn't even bother with her in co-op.

Well there ya go, that answers that. I wouldn't play as her in single player mode either. When you play co-op and people start dying (it happens) I did get stuck with Hawk once or twice alone and that was not good for business.

A very good game, well worth the $9.99. I'd get it if I hadn't already gotten it for the same price a Target awhile ago.

SHipping kills the deal for me (Iknow there's the coupon, but I only wanted to spend $10+ tax at the most)
