The extras are pretty cool, especially the map. The game on the other hand pretty meh.

If the links don't work just search "war in the north" on their search bar.

Very very tempting. That map would look pretty pimp up on a wall somewhere in my house. I just can't pull the trigger because the game is pretty "meh" like the OP said.

The other day, a Best Buy employee let me have one of those War in the North Troll statues for free. A few of my stores still have these sitting on the shelves of the PC game section.

I picked this up at Best Buy a few months ago for $19.99. Odd they'd increase the price.

That was probably YMMV clearance, whereas this is most likely a universal price drop.

I picked this up for $30 a few months ago. Still haven't played the game but the map and the troll statue I got with it (I guess they had tons in the back) are pretty damn cool looking.

I have this CE. The game would be pretty great if I wasn't the victim of a game-ending glitch where I'm stuck in chapter 5 with no way of advancing.

Very tempted by this, I'm a bit of a Tolkien fan and I like the extras in the package.

The heck with it... in for one!

I got the same glitch, do the piggyback method.
The PS3 version isn't available for shipping it seems. Doesn't really matter to me since I got it for $40 from amazon when they didn't charge tax. Great CE, and you can use the quiver to cosplay AssCreed I loved the game, great for local co op, aside from the bugs which can be avoided if you are ware of it beforehand.

Same sentiments I had, except I hit the same type of glitch in a different chapter. Supposedly they devs patched the bugs out, but I've too busy (and too miffed about the glitch) to start the game over.

Game was quite fun, tho.

I've had this CE for quite a while, picked it up for around $50 on Amazon way back when. I've been happy with it. I too hit the bug that you guys are talking about on my second playthrough (PS3 version). I was able to get past it by joining a co-op game hosted by someone else and completing the level with them.

Anyway, the game is a ton of fun in co-op mode (same screen or online). I love that it has same-screen co-op, far too many games this gen eschew single-screen in favor of online-only multiplayer IMO.

If you're a Tolkien geek (guilty) I highly recommend picking it up.

Awesome CE, I can't pass it up at this price, thanks OP!

In for one!

I'm pretty sure it was universal. There's a thread on here about it somewhere. I think I saw it in the Shadows of the Damned for $10 thread, where others had similar success. In fact it was marked $40 and rang up $20 when I picked it up.

Correct, i went for the regular version for $10 though should have spent the extra $10 looking back

Hm. Couldn't disagree with OP more about this game. It's one of the best games of 2011.

Too bad I'm not paid until Friday, else I'd be on this.

Hell, maybe it'll still be available. It'd be nice.

It wasn't universal. I picked it up right after someone reported getting it for $19.99 and it rang up at my store for $39.99. I continued to check online for a few weeks to see if it would drop to do a PM but it never did (until now, but I'm passed my PM window. Only 10 bucks, no biggie, it was worth 39.99)

I hope this isnt sarcasm. Can you give an explanation? i decided to bite for the swag. I cant wait to wear this in my public speaking class

Anyone think it will drop to $19.99 for Black Friday? I would much rather pay $19.99 since the game wasn't that good, apparently.

i'm such an idiot for buying this for $40. the game is good, though.
