Thanks. Glad you're digging the game. Yeah I know the LE stuff is super minor, but I'd be really upset if I didn't have the LE box art. But that's just cuz I'm crazy. Gonna bite the bullet and just order it from Amazon. Probably return it if it's not a LE, eh...

Can anyone confirm this? I know they prints tons of LE's normally, but Amazon's customer support couldn't confirm it for me. Should I order now and hope I get a LE?

Thanks for the replies, guys. Yeah, my roommate's PS2 Slim died on him. I did some research - it seems like every PS2 has issues, but all of the models are still generally reliable. I'll def buy a Slim at some point next year (when I have income) and buy all these PS games I've always wanted...

Wow, I literally just bought the MM Anniversary Collection for Xbox for $30 new (Amazon seller) like two days ago. Would LOVE to get a hold of the X Collection new. Any chance there's a GameCube reprint, too? I don't have a PS2, and I prefer the GC controller, but is the dpad really too awkward...

Well, I turned off auto-renew nearly a year ago... and just now I was going through my spam filter in gmail, and sure enough, they had sent an email a week ago saying I was auto-renewed. My bank now shows a cc charge: 10/28/2010 ENT. CONSUMER ASSOC $14.99 UGH! To those who have...

Guys, the ACII DLC wasn't REMOVED from the game. The team was rushing to meet the November release date, and they decided to axe some planned content due to the time crunch. This is good DLC (if not amazing value), because it never would have come out otherwise...

Man, I was waiting to preorder the collector's edition, and now it seems like it's sold out everywhere online! $75 at Target is super lame. Anyone have any ideas? I really want the preorder bonus, too.

Definitely Battlefield, as long as you're fine with online only multiplayer shooters in general. Picked up Battlefield, gonna get Pinnacle Station and Big Surf for the 800 points rebate. The deadline is Jan 31st though... anyone have any idea if they might discount either of those in January...

Hmm, this is all pretty interesting. I reread the email confirmation, and it does say this: "If an item's correct price is lower than our stated price, we charge the lower amount and ship you the item. If an item's correct price is higher than our stated price we will cancel your order and...

This seems to be a legitimate deal to me. I went ahead and ordered, as I could always return it to the store. Basically, the tradeoff is standard edition from Amazon for $57 with $10 credit, plus the preorder bonus... OR $60-$62 for the collector's edition from Target, no preorder bonus. I...

Buying the GOTY version, beating it, and then selling it is completely moral, obviously. Some people intended to keep their original copy, buy the GOTY, dl the DLC, and then immediately return the GOTY game. Which is obviously legal, but immoral imo. That is all.

I'd also like to propose an alternative: sell the original game for $30-35 on ebay, then buy the GOTY edition for $40 when it's on sale. $5-10 for $50 of DLC? Pretty good deal no matter how you slice it.

You're right, it's not illegal. But it IS unethical. (You don't need the dlc disk, just the original disk. And no one just wants to play the DLC without playing the regular game.) "I never was going to buy Photoshop anyway, but I just found it online for free, so no loss to Adobe." Anything...

Sweet, thanks a lot. My last two gc's from TRU had expiration dates I think, from Scribblenauts and something else. I think it may be a YMMV sort of thing with what cashiers give you.

Was this the one from ODST? I have two from ODST, and while they don't have any expiration dates written on the back or any fine print... I'm still super scared they'll expire without warning. Does anyone know for sure, if gift cards with no written expiration date, cannot possibly expire?? Thanks.
