Lost Planet pre-order at Best Buy
 

$5 gets you:

$5 off the game if you buy it at BB
a green case
a pretty cool little 3" by 5" laser cell (with a COA even!)
a card with a unique code to download a new multi-player demo map on xbox live

I thought the $5 off the game was essentially the $5 you've already paid.

Oops, yes, that's what I meant.

From the demo (and my predilection for FPSs), I'm pretty sure that I'm going to buy it. So I might as well get it at Best Buy, getting this stuff for free and also using the $5 GGC when I pick it up.

Cool. I wanted to get the extra map(s) but was on the fence about putting money down at EB/Gamestop.

I'm down with BB and $5 is the right price. Thanks for the heads up. :)

Does the bolded above mean that the game will not normally ship in the standard green Xbox case? I hope that isn't true. It may be obsessive compulsive, but I want all my game/movie collection in the same kind of case. That is one of the reasons I never buy special editions that come in non-standard cases dammit. :grumble: I will even go so far with my DVD movie collection as to swap out snapper cases and white Disney cases with standard black amaray cases.
