It comes in a medal case with artwork and I think a book and a DVD.

I guess MTV does everything now EXCEPT play music videos.

I bit the bullet and ordered it as well. It is strange to order from MTV, but this is the best price I have come across so far.

Maybe it will ship before next summer...

I was on the fence on this game due to the fact I'm not a big FPS fan, but at this price I couldn't pass it up. Nice Find!

Looks like a great deal. Too bad I can't seem to sign up for an account
What's wrong with that site?

edit: By continuing to hit Back on my browser and then hitting refresh when I got to an expired page, my account went through, I got to a confirmation of my account and then I was able to place my order. what a PITA, though.

...still, it's gotta be better than ordering through DVD Pacific, right?

There are some other good deals too.

I picked up two platinum wavebirds for ~41 + tax.

Also you can get games that normally go for $20 MSRP for basically buy two get one free. I bought:

Resident Evil (GCN) -- $18.13
Resident Evil 0 (GCN) -- $18.13
Midway Arcade Treasures (GCN) -- $18.13

After $8.29 off and %10 came to 40.66 + tax I believe.

One thing that concerns me though... my confirmation email shows full price without any of the discounts applied, anyone else get this?

EDIT: I just checked my online banking, looks like they are charging the correct price.

At my local Gamestop I was told that the CE would come in a metal tin with an extra dvd inside with stuff like original character designs, a look at some discarded maps and such stuff, all with creator commentary.

Sadly, there isn't any added game content so I'll stick with the regular edition.

But at this price, the CE is cheaper than the regular version anywhere else.

Can you use the coupon more than once? There are a few other titles I wouldn't mind picking up at that price.

Thanks for the heads up Monkey!

Yes you can use the coupon more than once.

edit:

I've updated my original post, you can grab Fable for $37 also.

you can use it multiple times. i just ordered Kingdom Under Fire w/ a dvd (to get over $50).

out of curiosity, why $8.29 off of $50?
