Thanks for the heads-up! I'm in for one. I have never played a Rainbow Six game, and I've seen nothing but great reviews for this one. $11 seems like an excellent price for this.

I'm kind of tempted by Rainbow Six: Vegas, but I bought the second one (PS3 version) and got stuck somewhere in it, so I'm assuming the same thing would happen in the first one.

i have completed the first R6V playing normal on xbox, so I think its ok except that defending the some theatre stuff......
and the second one is more buggy than the first one, the first one is fantastic in gameplay

Hey guys, sweet price on the R6V. I never played part 1 and wanted to get part 2 but with this price, might just have to get part 1 first...
Is the $11 with shipping included? is there free shipping? Or should I expect a $5 bump for that?

These are both for sale by Amazon, and both qualify for free Super Saver shipping on orders over $25. They'd be decent to order together (if one is interested in both), as they'd push the total up over that threshhold.
But seriously, you can type a response, but you can't click a link?

Seems as if R6V is also available through the Target link on the Amazon page. It's a buck cheaper and shipping is a little less too.

Thanks for the answer 'guessed', I apprecitate it.
and sorry bout not checking the link, im usually good with that ;-)
EDIT:

Maybe the title could be updated with a (plus shipping) added to it so that others can know its not just $11 out of pocket

In for RSV. Never played a TC game before, so this should be interesting.
I wonder if there is still an active Live community for this game?

R6V is pretty good, the only issue is the lack of save points. I'd get so far, then die.. and have to start from way back. But for $11- it's a pretty sweet deal. And VF5 is the best fighter I've played on 360. VF5 > DOA4 > SCIV > DBZ: Burst Limit

Don't assume you won't like the better Splinter Cell games even if you hate this. I hated the second one (got stuck super fast), but still loved Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (the Xbox 1 where you can save anywhere).

I don't know how well its held up over time, but R6V had an awesome online community when I used to play a year ago. But that was before the sequel came out... either way, it's an awesome game. Definitely pick it up for that price if you don't have it.

Virtua Fighter 5 at that price is a fantastic deal. I got it for $20 at TRU back in June and I've racked up about 25 hours(1,100+ fights) in the single player Quest mode alone. Depending on the button set-up, which you can customize, you don't have to get an arcade stick to enjoy it.

Vegas is definitely worth 11 bucks. I thought I've seen VF5 going for 20 bucks at Walmart though, perhaps it could go lower?

You can still buy it. It just takes 2-3 weeks to ship. Look on the right hand side for more buying options.

Thanks for that info. I hadn't noticed the amazon option on the right at first.
Now to try the Demo and see if I really want it.
With shipping 2-3 weeks out, I'll have plenty of time to cancel if need be.

Virtua Fighter 5 is a good deal. But I can't bite on it. Two Reasons:
1- I'm not a joystick fan, I'm a d-pad man, and there is to my knowledge no 360 controller with a quality d-pad.
2- Over time, Virtua Fighter gives new moves and takes old ones away, but they took away a somewhat vital move from Sarah (my character of over ten years) that I use to win my share of battles, diminishing her efficiency significantly.

So use one of the new characters or one of the other ones. I'm a big Shun-di fan and his changes didn't make me love VF5 any less. I just started using Jacky more.

I picked up Vegas at this special price as well. Thanks OP.
If a lot of people are going to be buying this game new, maybe we could message each other and play? We can start up the community again if need be.
I remember reading "terrorist hunt" game/mode was a lot of fun for gamers.
What about it everyone?

Yeah, this is where my whole "standardize on Xbox" thing falls apart. That pad is GARBAGE. And I don't know why, because the original Xbox's pad was fine, and the older sidewinder pads were better still. I have no idea why that was released like that, and why it wasn't fixed YEARS ago.
2- Over time, Virtua Fighter gives new moves and takes old ones away, but they took away a somewhat vital move from Sarah (my character of over ten years) that I use to win my share of battles, diminishing her efficiency significantly.
Do you know what they took away? Can you sort of describe it? I'm just kind of curious, because she's who I always play (but I'm not hard core, though the series has always impressed me, except for the Dreamcast VF3).

I received my copy of Virtua Fighter 5 today. I knew something was amiss when the package was from Amazon.com returns center. I open it up and unsurprisingly the game disc was covered in dust, finger prints and smear marks.. At least LBP appeared to be brand new as advertised..

Yes, it was sealed but I suspect amazon had resealed it since the disc had fingerprints as well as smear marks.
This is the 2nd time this year where I suspect amazon had sent me a used copy as new. This past summer when I received my copy of MGS4 from amazon, it had similar problems. Disc covered in dust, smear marks, etc. I just returned MGS4 to amazon and went to best buy to buy MGS4.
Was it a shrinkwrap type of seal? That would be a good indication of it being resealed.
