Ugh, woulda jumped on this if I didn't already own it...

 

[earvcunanan]

Hmmm... a key chain, some graffix skins, and a sculpture for $40 more than what the game only is retailing for. I'll wait for another price drop.

 

[lee7sauce]

Come on...they have to do better than that. Not to say $110, but who would buy this for $80?

$80? LOL I would be tempted if it were $60 for the 360. Then I would use ECA, $30 coupon, and giftcards, but it would still be a rip off. Like the other poster said, I'm waiting for another pricedrop. Come on Amazon, Step yo muthain game up!

ECA codes are down again.

 

[skubish]

I will wait for $20

The website is ed up, which happens to CAG too, so I'm not worried about it.

For me, this version is still too expensive.

 

[shrike4242]

This is what it should have been priced at on release, and then we'd have it for $50 for this DOTD.

If this was able to be bundled with the a season of the animated show or something more then what they are offering I would be in.

But now not so much

 

[poker360]

still to much for me, thanks though, op

Ghostbusters: Overpriced Edition - no thanks

 

[StarKnightX]

While I am a sucker for special editions of games , especially when they are on sale (picked up Saints Row 2 SE , Fallout 3 SE , Resident Evil 5 SE all for the same price or cheaper than the regular version) this one is still a bit too expensive. Hopefully the fact that they are putting it on sale means they are overstocked on it and that it'll drop more soon.

 

[bvharris]

Is the special edition the game + $60 cash? Otherwise no thanks.

Definitely not worth $20 more for a keychain and some other crap.

Um...while not worth the $80 IMO, it comes with more than just a keychain and other crap. The main thing is the slimer bust, while not big, it certainly looks nice and I wouldn't mind getting it if it was $50 on DotD, but as it stands...nope.

The game is good, if short, and the $130 original price tag was way too much.

There's an article with a pic of the slimer statue here: http://360.kombo.com/article.php?artid=16220. It's 10.5 inches tall. It's also supposedly limited to 6500 pieces.

 

[choral_music]

To be fair, the slimer statue is about a foot tall (according to this reviewer).

GAH! Beat me to it

 

[randomthinker]

Kinda want, $30 code almost makes it tempting...
probably would have jumped on this if the demo hadn't been so disappointing. Considering RE5 @ $39.99 - $30 code though... now if only ECA weren't down.

 

[crunchewy]

What's the final verdict on the Wii version of this game? Pretty fun? I might jump on the Wii version after $30 coupon.

EDIT: Then again, the non-slimer edition is $36.99, so $3.29 shipped after $30 off coupon and ECA. Hmm.... Probably I don't need another game right now, though.

 

[dieresis]

What is this $30 off coupon that many of you are referring to, friends?

Agreed. If this was release pricing, I'd buy it.. but that time is passed as I already have the game.

Current amazon.com trade-in promo. Trade-in $60 worth of video games and get the credit plus a $30 off next gaming-related purchase coupon. See the amazon trade-in thread.

My sentiments exactly. Awesome pic! These collector editions are ridiculous. Its just a way to milk people. Whats funny is when I see these prestigious collector's editions on sale at Gamestop USED. And I have seen these soon after a game is released. How stupid is that!?!?!?!

 

[maxim2boobles]

It's a fun game and multiplayer is awesome for 360. I got this game for $36 on ebay and it's worth it. Do not get the wii version because its local multiplayer only and co-op.
