why would you pass? doesn't seem like these would go much lower. maybe a $1 less at most like on BF, but that's about it.

Normally I would be in for GOWII at that price, but then to get free shipping I would have to add something else. Three things I have working against this right now is the number of games I've bought the past week or so, most of them coming from amazon.com. The second thing working against this is I would have to dust off my PS2, which I haven't played in over a year. Lastly, I just got Chains of Olympus this past week from amazon.com. I'm gonna pass! Believe it or not.

Wow - I have been waiting on these for years and I don't think I will find a better price - couple with Orange Box for free shipping and this would be super gaming for a few weeks - should I? Or should I show restraint since I have a back log of games? I will show restraint but this is a great deal.

Wow, play Shadow Hearts first. I loved the game. My list looks a little like that, but even bigger because of all the games I've got from Goozex as well. God of War is pretty amazing though and I was able to beat it in two long sittings. It kept glitching for me on the last boss though on my PS3.

Yeah, I'd say about 95% of my PS2 games were bought new (~20 or so not opened) and the only game I really play is MVP Baseball 05 ;-)
Even my LE copy of MGS3 is still sitting in some box, I think with a a load (60) Gamecube games.
I'm not leaping into the next gen, so I like these PS2 Amazon deals -- I'm hoping one of them is for Persona 4.

Haha, as far as I figure saving unopened games is sometimes a good idea. Before I bought games like crazy I bought a PS1 version of Final Fantasy VII on clearance for like 10 bucks at a KB Toy Works going out of business. Never opened it because I had the PC version and beat it. I'll be darned, checked the price 2 years ago and a sealed copy was 130 bucks. Sold it and that was a lovely surprise.

Damn broke til payday. guess I'll do my little credit card trick to delay the order
I have a visa gift card with $2.xx that I keep on amazons file for times like these. Place the order through that card. Will recieve an email stating "having problems fulfilling payment." Will get that email for 5 days ( I think) before the order is canceled. Then on payday I switch to my regular card and order completed. I've done it twice with deals of the day I didn't want to miss but couldn't afford at the time.

Seriously? I mean there's no accounting for taste but GoW and GoW2 are some of the best reviewed games for the PS2. Universal praise usually means it is going to be good - I LOVED them. For $8 this is a no-brainer - it is like a sandwich or a beer - it is really nothing.

I didn't like the first one much either. It was okay, and then I got stuck towards the end. Only game in the genre I ever truly liked was Devil May Cry 1.

It's not Amazon selling those two copies. It's a merchant.
Congrats to anyone that ordered them -- I own and thoroughly enjoyed both of these games, and the inevitable release of GoW3 is the single reason I'll be sad to not own a PS3.

The deal only lasts until they(Amazon) sell out of the item. Basically, it's a case of 'you snooze, you lose'.
This is why indecisive people(like me) have no real right to bitch about missing a deal. The deals are out there, you just have to grab them quicker to make sure you get one.

I already have one, and ordered GoW2. I almost bought the first one just because it's so cheap, then I thought, wtf, I already have this XD

I'd be all over this if it wasn't GH. Nothing bothers me more than looking down my nice, neat, alphabetical row of PS2 games and seeing one red case sticking out like a sore thumb.
I used to be that way, but Silent Hill 2 GH w/ extra content and 14.99 Symphony of the Night changed my mind.

I still don't get that...sorry :D
I mean...I even kind of like the different packaging. Makes it more interesting. My only real complaint with greatest hits type packaging is Microsoft's 360 stuff. It's so poorly designed *I* could have made it :lol:

I used to think like that but if it's a choice between having the game and not having the game I'd rather have the game. Especially if it's at a great price.

Boy am I glad I got it when I did. Seeing it's sold out now, I havn't yet played GoW2 and that price was great. congrats to all who got it, and sorry to all who didn't.

Too late, I've been wanting to play GOW2 for a long time too.

What!? Are you serious? I saw this at school, was going to wait until I got home to order, literally just sat down to check, and it's sold out. I hate my life.

Simple solution: Don't look at the case.

You and I are total opposites. I strive for the GH versions, so I can have a nice row of red spines.

I love Greatest Hits games, the red spine reminds me that I paid a fraction of the original price of the game. :)

I'm not being sarcastic in any way actually. I think it's smart. Think about it, I purchase it Non-GH, for $50. It deprecates in value, one way or another. I trade it straight up for a Sealed GH version. In turn I get a brand new game, that still holds the same value as before, along with a few extra bucks. If that made no sense, then I'm just OCD and I like one row all red, the other all black :P

Yeah, the GH part bothered me before BUT now it's about having the game vs. not; and while my library doesn't have too many GH titles, I'm not bothered by getting them anymore.

Got it this morning. A plus of having early morning classes.

Your OCD lol. It's cool though, it's your time and money.

no i'm down for buying Player's Choice but the disturbing part was that your statement implied you wait for PC status. I mean what happens if it never gets there.

Then he keeps that game in the black side of the shelf.

Exactly! And when it goes GH, I sell that, and get a minty fresh game, along with a few bucks :)
Everyone wins! I just win more :P

I used to care too, but not anymore. With dvds coming in all kinds of ridiculous packaging, thoughts of having a nice uniform shelf went out the window a long time ago.

why does there gotta be a black side? why can't the black games sit on the front of the shelf? sounds like a issue for Rev Jackson to handle. Oh we can fix this black shelf business up right quick.

I hope it returns soon, I still don't have GoW2 yet.

Amazon's had this deal twice now, both games for $10 or under.
I guess they have a lot of inventory on both games. PS2 games should be a steal this X-Mas.
Was there ever a Headhunter 2...?
