umm.... tempting. since the conditions for bestbuy used games are always like new.

[Vigilante]

Hmm...I got all the achievements for the version, but this game was so good that I'm tempted to pick it up again for .

[TooPoor]

You guys who play the same game on both systems are hard core!

[cynicalaa22]

Family Video has this game for $20 used w/ $2 shipping, for those who don't have a subscription to @gamer.

Wish my mag had shown up this month... That's finally the right price for me to pick this up.

[CheapAssHustla]

After seeing the PC price for $6, the CAG in me won't let me buy this just yet. Is the DLC worth it?

[jiggyteddy]

I bought this at full price, and have no regrets.

This was my most played game of 2012.

I hope this game did well enough for them to make another.

the game flopped badly in sales.

[joeyshadows]

It's strangely in stock at my local store. This will be the 8th game I've bought within the last month.

I remember their launch week sales were quite respectable considering they went up against Darksiders II.

I stopped following after that first few weeks, and hoped for the best. Their twitter account is quite active still. I throw praise at them every now and then.

DLC for this game isn't worth it, just skins and some challenge missions. Game is definitely worth $17.99 though.

not the mention the quality of used games from bestbuy, almost like new games. If i can find one with the complete cover art, i will buy it

look where darksiders II is now, THQ is out of business, the developing company Vigil might be too

Um yeah I wasn't talking about right now obviously.

My comment was referring to the launch period when these 2 games were competing for attention.

Such a sick friggin game! The fact that this did not sell that well is a travesty. It got the GTA clone treatment and that is a shame. The game is similar yes, but similar in the same way that Batman and Spiderman are. I liked it way more than GTA 4.

I would love to see a revamped version with extra content on the Wii U. I would buy it again for sure. I only paid $30 during the TRU Buy 2 for $60 sale earlier this year and felt I got a sick deal then! $60 for this and Darksiders 2 was the best deal of the year for me! Screw the used copy Buy a new one so they can make a next-gen sequel!

[strait edge follower]

its well documented that this coupon wont stack with the 10% off. they both need to get an override for it to happen. this is a coupon that bestbuy really needs to fix

[alwayscheaper]

I paid $29.99 for this a week or so ago an have no regrets. Like some said, this blows gta out of the water in terms of the way it uses hand to hand combat, guns, cover and bullet time like mechanics, collectibles and missions. I've been playing the heck out of it since I got it and am nearing completion and have a lot of interest in getting the platinum.

I couldn't remember when it was $6 on the PC?
Anyways, I definitely recommend getting this for the PC.

[Lemstar]

It was $12 with $6 credit back or $4 cash back at GMG during the winter sale period. There was also a price glitch on Steam when it was $5 for 30 minutes.

I think this is the first time anyone has ever clamored for a Wii U port. That system is nothing but ports. And then you say we should pay $30 for it instead of $18 - nearly double. This ain't Rich Ass Gamers!

Ah thanks, I must have missed the 30 minutes :(
Got it for more than $6, CAG fail.

just a warning, there is alot of bugs on the pc version

I have only played the first 30 minutes, thanks for the heads up.

[guessed]

In-store price was $44.99, had to get them to match the $29.99, then accept the coupon, then force the 10% - a little more involved than I expected, but no real trouble. I usually let the used game coupons go to waste, so I'll have to keep an eye on the used games of the week deals in the future (beginning in March, I guess, since this was a Jan/Feb coupon).

[WilliamG]

That's for sure. I got the $5 Steam version for PC, and some bugs were pretty annoying. My favorite one is the thug standing there dropping and picking up the crowbar. Clang! Clang! Clang! Over and over...

Still a fun game. Played it to completion. The driving "ram" was just plain weird, though...

Agreed. For me this game is probably my favorite sandbox game of all time. Mostly due to how they handled the combat and the setting.

[jiggyteddy]

Let's not forget that the driving mechanics were pretty solid too.

Nice one! But seriously, the Wii U has made me a believer. I dont care if its a port, just enhance it and add the DLC, slap a $40 retail price on it and boom... another good title on the system. Say what you will about the Wii U port "issues", but I love the system and would like some open world games on it. Im far from a fanboy, I just love games and the Wii U is a sick piece of hardware. Ive had plenty of time with mine and I dont have any issues with a lack of games on the system, I just want more of them. Who doesnt want more of a good thing? I like the idea of having a whole screen dedicated to the map and menus in my hands that I can use in real-time. I would get rid of my copy of Skyrim on 360 if I could have a Wii U port with all the DLC. That game would be great for the gamepad! Any game with lots of menu trudging would be great for the gamepad. Nintendo is on to something here and Im sure it will be copied by both Sony and MS.

Sleeping Dogs thpough, greta game that could be introduced to a whole new market of gamers with a Wii U release and I think Square owes it to the developers to put this on as many platforms as possible to get the word out so they can possibly make a sequel! There are also some buigs that could be worked out and such. A win-win in my book.

[exaznkid]

i'd recommend this for <$20. It's rough around the edges in graphics and a few nuances that could use a little brushing up but it's definitely a fun action sandbox game with an emphasis on kicking people in the face.

This franchise has great potential but a personal criticism i have with this is that the story is below par. As exciting as the campaign may be, don't expect anything stellar but expect a lot of loose ends.
