Castlevania Lords of Shadow (Xbox 360) $14.99 Free Shipping at Newegg

This has been the normal price at Newegg for months. Keep an eye out as they've dropped it to $12.99 during sales.
 
I'm still sore I missed this on BBY's site for $7. Unfortunately, that had the side effect of making me not willing to purchase it unless I can get it for $10 or less.
I am, however, submitting this price to Amazon for those CAGs who prefer to buy from there.
 
Just finished this game a couple of weeks ago, one of the best game I ever played. Tons of combos and boss fights. It sucks the PS3 version is never on sale.
 
Thought I'd share for people picking up this game then considering buying the DLC:

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow DLC was "a mistake", says dev

"
The Castlevania: Lords of Shadow DLC add-ons Reverie and Resurrection were "a mistake", developer MercurySteam has now admitted.

Neither were planned, Lords of Shadow producer Dave Cox has explained - they were rushed, due to the game's unexpected success.

"We never planned to do DLC, so we ended up doing DLC after the fact and in hindsight that was a mistake," Cox told Gameranx.

"It was rushed. We had to rush it to market."

Lords of Shadow itself was simply too popular not to have DLC, Cox added, meaning that two add-on packs had to be rustled up for a quick release.

"The problem was that the game's success caught everyone by surprise. It caught senior management by surprise and they wanted us to do DLC," Cox said.

"We never planned to do DLC, so we ended up doing DLC after the fact, and in hindsight that was a mistake." Dave Cox, producer, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

"When you have success there's pressure on you to bring something else to market very quickly. And I think it was wrong of us to do that."

Should Konami release any DLC for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, due for release next year, it will be planned from the start.

"We enriched the story that we wanted to tell, but if we were going to do DLC again it would have to be planned right from the get go," Cox concluded.

"And it wouldn't be something that would try to build upon an ending - it would be something that's perhaps a side story that enriches the original story. If we were going to do DLC again, it would be something much more carefully considered."
