Edit 11/26/09: The price for the PS3 and Wii has reverted back to $39.75. With all of the Thanksgiving specials coming and going, anyone who is interested should check the link and add their preferred version to their cart to assure the proper price is displayed. It has been fluctuating frequently.

Edit 11/27/09: PS3 version has reverted to $69.99. It is DEAD for now.

Edit 11/29/09: 360 version is out of stock. The price is unknown. Used copies are being offered in varying conditions for $27.99 which are Amazon fulfilled. Some claim to be shrinkwrapped.

god dammit...

Freakin' awesome price. Is this a BF deal that started? If so we got a LOT of good things to look forward to.

Shit... The game alone for Wii is $25 at Fry's right now... From what I've heard this game is worth maybe around $20 new... Just gotta figure if the Slimer statute + game is worth $26.78 (w/ leftover ECA code)...

Hm 80$ left in video game credits, and I've basically bought every game I want that is already out(thank you cag, and amazon, by the way), and I do want to play this...but do I want to buy it? Well if I wake up and it's sold out on 360, my decision is made. If not...hmm.


FYI: It also has a magazine deal for 50% off "select videogame magazines". It seems you'll get the exact details in the e-mail though, I can't find info on which magazines and what other games qualify, atleast not where I'm looking.

This is the price point I've been waiting for. PS3 version ordered with Amazon Prime. =D

Thanks OP!

Thanks, just bought it. I'm a huge Ghostbusters fan, and I was waiting for a good deal on this.

I bought it for 50 new, it's definitely worth the 30 price point for the slimer edition.

Yes!!! I saw it at 70 and was hoping amazon would put it on sale for BF. BOUGHT IT!

THANKS OP!!!

What does the Slimer edition come with?

good deal, meh game

A slimer statue and some stickers. It's a good collector's item for GB fans.

Finally, my price point, bought.

Preparing my order already, Amazon? o_O

And to think I went through a load of trouble to buy it when it was a lightning deal a few months back. It was $90 list, marked down $40 - so the "deal" was for $50. An ECA double-stack brought it down to $32 - so yeah, ECA "abuse" really didn't cost them anything in that case . Actually this has been true with just about everything I bought from Amazon, even the new releases (e.g., R&C lightning deal for $30, and there have been many others).

But I jumped through hoops to order it while I was at dinner on my iPhone (which is a chore, I tell ya!). It sold out within 15 minutes, and I barely got an order in. I also used one of my $30 game credits from the trade-in program. I have yet to even remove the statue and look at it (though my son did play the game).

Um, yeah, good luck with that - they expired the last of them about a week ago.

QFT x 2!

Nooo! Not now! I always wanted this game, but was holding out for the $20 mark. But now that I have $22 in Amazon credit...this edition will only cost me $7.75. That's the great news.

The bad news is that I was saving my credit for BF in hopes of Dragon Age being $34.99 (if Amazon PM's Best Buy).

What to do? My gut is telling me to bite on this as I am a huge GB's fan.

Oh yeah, another was Persona PSP . Came up cheaper the other day than my 2 x ECA codes. So, pretty much the ECA enticed me to buy stuff at full price (or overpriced like this Slimer Edition was back then) that I wouldn't have normally bought - then they sell it all cheaper shortly afterwards anyway. Oh well... I'm seriously tempted to get another of these but then I realized that is pretty stupid - why double down on my original mistake? .

Don't get me wrong, the game seems decent enough - I didn't play it but I helped my son through parts of it. Just note that you can get it at Hollywood Video or Gamecrazy for $19.99 new if you are looking for that price point.

Dragon Age for $35 (potentially), eh? I will definitely be all over that - one thing I did hold off preordering in late summer was that one...
