Seems like a good price for it, especially since it's half the price TRU had it for (which seemed to be the best deal for it)

Great deal, I have no idea what this game is about. I do love the $5 games, if you buy it and don't like it you can almost always get your money back. Its like renting with a saftey net.
BTW since shipping is free all this week they also have

I'm just wondering if anything else worthwhile besides what was already posted because I'm a man who loves his free shipping.

Hmm. Like an idiot, I didn't jump on the B2G1 DS sale from Amazon/TRU, so I think I may buy this just to satiate my purchasing impulses until KHII comes out. At $5, I have little to lose with this game.

Edit:
Damn. They have a lot of games at really good prices that are OOS.

The following are all for PS2, and are OOS:

$10:
Mercenaries
Secret Weapons Over Normandy
Killzone
Xenosaga Episode II
God of War
Forgotten Realms
Shadow of Rome
Dynasty Warriors 4 Xtreme Legends

$5
Siren
PSI-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy
Echo Night: Beyond
Robotech Invasion
Medal of Honor: Frontline
The X-Files: Resist or Serve

03-20-2006, 01:47 PM
It's actually a good game too....

Think Resident Evil meets Ghost Ship, but slap Ghost Ship's stupid plot out of the way and replace it with the usual mad scientest trying to help humanity and being manipulated by a militant government bent on using his research to create reanimated mutagenic biological weapons :) Add in the helpless damsel in distress / scientist's daughter and some funky Breakdown-esque viral infections and you've got a solid B title! But for $5, it can handle a B grade.

And no, it's not a thing like RE: Survivor (blech).

Hmmm...I've been meaning to play this...is it a decent game?

Definetly a decent title. I played in beat it in about three days playing a couple hours a night. I paid $20 for my copy a while back so it was worth it to me.

The atmostphere of the ship is very neat and the weather effects on the deck are really well done. The story is typical survial horror and the length was just about right. The only problem I had with the game is there is no Map. The only map is in the instruction booklet and it does not help at all.

Make sure to pay attention to your surrounds and get a feel for the layout of the ship so you know how to get from place to place.

Good price, but to quote the compusa website:

"Usually Ships In:

Wasn't the game released in 2003?

free shipping will end soon! here's the fine print...
Offer Valid 3/19/2006 from 12:01 a.m. CST to 3/25/2006 11:59 p.m. CST Only.

you know the voyeur cam from vice city? well, this game has something like that. Sometimes water or blood will drip down the "screen." It's pretty hilarious when you get your first headshot. ;)

Cold Fear is up for trade if anyone wants it. ...haha.
i was hooked for a couple hours on it, but i think i'll let it go for the right offer.

After dealing with Gamestop, it's nice for something to work out smoothly once in awhile. I'm glad I waited when I saw this game for $7 @ Amazon.

Many thank you's, OP!

No, they all went FedEx Ground as far as I know. The reason is that FedEX doesn't sit on Ground packages like UPS does. FedEx will get a Ground package delivered as fast as they can, they just prioritize it lower is all. UPS will actually sit on Ground packages they could easily deliver, just so the Ground business doesn't compete with their next day/2-day business.

I just now got the shipping confirmation email from CompUSA, a whopping 8 days later. This is a stark contrast to some of you folks getting the next day.

Can't complain though, only 5 bucks and I already own the game so I'm not out anything. Just weird that it took this long.

I got my Cold Fear last week and it was rattling around inside the case. I've go to go back and exchange it. The boxes for my Street Fighter controllers were also messed up. The Ryu one had a side ripped off along with the cover and Ken's got some bubbles underneath on the top.
