Driver: San Francisco (PS3/360) - $39.99 shipped at Amazon

Great game. Really enjoyed it, and all the different aspects to shifting. Very neat. Multiplayer's pretty fun, too.
 
Really want this game, but expecting it to hit $30 or less relatively soon b/c of the lack of marketing. Pretty stupid of them to release it during the months that are already jam-packed with big-budget titles.

Agreed, this game especially dropped quick.
 
[quote name='MIX_MASTER_ICE']Of course it dropped fast.....It's an UBI Soft game. Any CAG should know this! lol[/QUOTE]

Most CAG's will not bite until under the $20 mark =) unless there's a possible flip!


With the gamer coupon at best buy it will cost about $38 after tax, $5 for the magazine, and the $10 off coupon plus you also get another coupon for $20 off hunted or brink for $9.99 before tax.
 
I guess everyone still doesn't know that Ubisoft game prices drop like a rock. Why anyone would buy Assassins Creed, Rayman, or any of the other Ubisoft games at launch this holiday season is beyond me. :lol:

Look at the people in the AMZ DOTD thread for AC:B $25 it was this price with the coupon before a sale was even stacking back in May & $15 after it stacked with a sale.

Most newer releases have $30 base TIV combined with the higher(40%-50%) deals with the 10%=easy $45-$48 per game.

played the demo and kinda like it... and 60 fps open world game on consoles which is super rare, ever since burnout paradise. i'm the type of gamer who takes framerate (60fps) over graphics anyday, as long as they don't make it too ugly. ;) may have to bite at this price.
 
[quote name='droider']Never heard of this game :$

Sounds like GTA, is it?[/QUOTE]

Other than the driving of cars, nope. No on-foot parts, just well-balanced (in my opinion) progression of story missions with lots of side missions and other distractions (collectibles, fully licensed cars to purchase, upgrades).
 
[quote name='showtimefolks']more reason now a day to never buy a game at launch when within first 2 weeks it will get 20-30off[/QUOTE]Agreed, although that has almost always been the case with some exceptions like Blizzard games and Call of Duty. I think I'll wait until this one is $20.

but now a days its becoming very bad habit. look at dues ex a lot of us paid full 60 next week 34.99.

so i will be waiting on every game because i know waiting a few weeks mean 2 things:

if a game has any issues i will know about em and chances are with few weeks they will be patched

and i could end up saving 2-20 so why not
 
I'm tempted since I have a $20 credit right now, but I have a feeling that it'll be $20 soon enough.

I did have interest in this game at one point, I played the demo, thought it was alright, don't think much of that shift thing. It's cheaper, but the motivation factor to buy it is low.

I actually subscribed twice. The first time they didn't even give me a magazine; however, I trade in so much I wanted to make sure I got the 10% extra. Since I was at a BB trading in some stuff I just bought a few magazines and copies of DSF along with hunted and Brink (with gift cards) then traded in the DSF's.

I bought a couple of AC:B during the blockbuster B1G1 so they were technically $10.80 each. I actually traded in some with the DSF's and 40 other games =)..
 
I've got a rental of this from Gamefly and it's been incredibly fun. The shift mechanic adds a brand new element into an open city game.

Say you're in a race with other cars, you can shift to a huge truck to crash into the cars in front of you, even if you're way behind, and then you can steer around it and take the lead. It's been great thus far.

i bought the last 2 Assassin's Creed games on launch, beat them (about 3 weeks), and traded them back in to amazon for more than i paid.
 
After completing only half of the first day of p90x schedule, Lombardi says he woke up sore and ill. He states that anyone who has done the workout knows what it feels like after the first day. The routine included push-ups after pull-ups in a very demanding way.

Having just finished week 4 of insanity workout schedule DVD program, I am posting my progress to compare with when I started, and am very happy with the results so far :). Everything looks more defined and I feel so much fitter.
