$18 w/EDGE discount.

If this kicks you to the GS home page, the link to the weekly ad is the first link on the top navigation.

don't see anything in the link?


*EDIT

Found it. Had to click "Weekly ad" top center. Don't know why Gamestop doesn't want you to have a direct link.

*EDIT 2

thanks to my $2 Edge card and a local coupon, still haven't spent over $15 on a PS3 game

Yeah. I tried editing the link a couple times but it won't let me directly link to the page. Sorry about that. Good deal though!

This seems like a great deal...can anyone chime in with opinions of the game? Are there still lots of people playing online? Also, is any of the DLC worth buying?

I played the demo and had a blast. Fun as hell. I plan on picking this up tonight. Can't go wrong for $20.

The great thing is is that most of the copies are from the Motorstorm pack, so the copies are like new in my experience. People just take the copy of Motorstorm out of the box and trade it immediately.

10% coupon does not stack for motorstorm since its already a promotion.
But the good news is edge card takes 10% off on original price of $35 so you get the game for $16.49 + tax. Sounds like a glitch to me
Great deal anyways

Snagged the one without. Thanks, OP.

Got the last one at Westwood, CA. Unfortunately in the "not for resale" box, and the disc looks a bit beat up, but mostly dusty. I'm hoping I can clean it and it'll work ok. I've had bad luck with used games but I am hoping Bluray's scratch proofing will help. The guy tried to charge me the $34.99 for it but I kept insisting it was $19.99 in the newsletter (which I had just received in email about 30 seconds before I left)... finally he found the magical button to push and suddenly says "Oh, yeah, that'll be $21 [whatever, after tax]". Weird.

That's a good price for it. It gets old pretty fast but surely a few hours of fun is worth $20.

yeah..mine didn't update the price from 34.99 until the guy got to the payment options.

Went to both the EB and GS in my mall and ended up buying the one at EB because it was the original case. I did however get the "Not For Resale", but that is cool because the disc looks brand new. Also when the game rang up the cashier thought there was something wrong and I informed him it was on sale this week. I've played about 30 min. and am enjoying the game. The elements actually add to the strategy, which is a nice twist. I like all the various routes you can take and how the mud alters your speed. Thanks again OP.:D

I snagged one tonight in Mansfield, MA. If anyone is around here, they have a ton of them at the GS in Mansfield. Most of them are the not for resale copies, but there are a few originals left.

16.49 is a great price for this game.

Does anyone know what to tell the gamestop employee to get the 19.99 price?

My local gamestop had 4 copies, but they all rang up at 34.99.

I printed out the weekly online ad, showing the 19.99 price point, but they still did not give me the discount.

The clerk told me that it didnt show up until like the last thing he did before payment because it was treating the discount like a coupon. Not sure if maybe they just scanned it and viewed the normal price.

I'm holding out for a Greatest Hits pack with some/all of the DLC. I'm wondering if this sale is a sign that the first batch of GH games are coming out. They're already out in Japan (or confirmed at least). They have a yellow spine and the same 360 blunder of an small inset box cover photograph surrounded by a large irrelevant border.

I went to the store in Brooklyn Park, MN. They had 10+ copies on the shelf and what looked like even more behind the counter. Mine was marked $49.99 but rang up at $34.99 - $15.00 so $19.99 and $16.50 after the edge card. The edge card took the 10% off before the 15 dollar discount so it saves over 15 percent on this deal. :) great deal here.

As for those waiting for a greatest hits pack with downloadable content in it, Id advise to just buy this now. For $16.50 you can buy all the downloadable content and still be spending ~$30 dollars. I never see a greatest hits copy going below that in price (short of sales and then maybe $20). Typically the greatest hits versions don't have any downloadable content included anyway but are usually stripped down.

My Gamestop in Denver had a ton of used Motorstorms for PS3. I traded in TMNT 360 and Arcade Unplugged 360 and got an extra $10.00 off any two 360 trade ins, I paid nothing. :D Thanks OP !

Its not an Entertainment book, its like one. Called Quick saver or something. Only good for one game, book had two coupons, only good at 3 GS in my local area.

My used copy from yesterday seemed a bit glitchy (glitches during FMV sequences, etc) so I went to a different Gamestop and they had quite a few more copies. Found one that looked significantly better than my first copy so I grabbed it. They wouldn't take the 10% off from the Gamestop coupon, though, which was too bad. (I have a feeling it was payback from not falling for any of their hard sell stuff-- from the second I walked in the store and had Motorstorm in my hand they were reading off PS3 releases pushing me to pre-order. They warned me it'd be impossible to find GTA 4 if I didn't preorder today!!! uhm, okay. That's a risk I am willing to take.)

So we'll see how this one works, but combining it with anything (Except perhaps Edge) seems a bit YMMV. Or they just hated me.

The ebgames/gamestop computers can only take 2 discounts off on any one title. They technically should have been able to do the coupon with the weekly special but I believe the coupon states not good with any other offer.

17.77 after Edge and tax. Thanks OP!

Once you get to the payment options, the price drops (similar to any coupons at GS). Not all employees know about the sale so they might continue to quote the $34.99 price.

it rang up for that as well for me, but when it's all totaled there is an adjustment to 19.99, this is around the board for every Gamestop. I'm really happy with this deal because the copy I got was in mint condition with no scratches and I also got a copy of Resident Evil 4 premium edition ps2 for 11 bucks, can't wait to get my ps3.

they take the 10% off of the original price of $34.99....or $3.50.

$3.50 off of $19.99 = $16.49

One of the best gaming deals I've gotten in the past year. It's really a lot of fun, and I haven't even played online yet.

I got the last copy at my local Gamestop. In was in perfect shape! The clerk was trying to ring me up for $34.99, but I gave him the smackdown with their online ad. He seemed quite surprise, too! You ain't meeting your quota today, skippy!

To add to that, I had the 25% off any Xbox 360 game coupon and picked up Call of Duty 4.

And to add more salt to the wound, I had another transaction; this time for my little sister. It was the 10% off any game from the e-mail offer, and I just bought her a NEW copy of Harvest Moon for the DS. ;)

I was on the fence on this, but I figured for $17 why not. I went to clean up at the JCPENNY green tag sale and swung by Gamestop afterwards. I was very happy to find a pack in version and the disc was pristine. The only time the back may have seen the light of day since the factory was to put it in the gamestop slip for storage.

The beautiful thing about the not for resale copy is it is stamped right on the disc, so you can have them flip through their copies until they see one with that on there.

So far for my PS3 I have gotten Uncharted, Warhawk, Oblivion, and now Motorstorm and spent less then $100 total. On top of getting my 60gig PS3 a year ago this week for $380. :applause:

I did B2G1 at Gamestop the week after Xmas. I got Uncharted, Warhawk, and Oblivion for like $80ish after edge card discount. It took a good amount of work to find a used copy of it, but I found one.

Those were the first 3 games I bought, besides when I bought resistance for $40 back in 2/07 when I got my PS3 @ Meijer. I sold Resistance for a profit so I don't count that. I mainly play games on my 360 since I like the controller more and 90% of my friends play on Live.

Hmmm even though I was tempted I decided to hold off on this game. I don't think I would play multiplayer much and from what i've experienced and heard the single player game is somewhat frustrating and repetitive.

I might bite if it was $10ish

same here. this is a good time to get motorstorm used because most people are selling gamestop their bundled games right when they get their ps3 80gb. therefore, they are in very good if not perfect condition.
