That is a minor bummer since I don't have a 360.

I think you're right. Someone at CAG said that "Journey to a land of legendary combat" is on the back of the POP case.

I'm guessing it's the Graphic Novel version since that's the only one Amazon's selling. They have a listing for the plain version, but it's sold by 3rd party retailers.

I'll probably pick it up when it hits the $20-$25 range. $40 is too much. Didn't the pre-order come with a $20 GC? If so, $40 isn't much of a sale price.

Here's the Singularity thread:

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

I'd like to pre-emptively put in a good word for Metro 2033 if it's offered at a decent price. Recently played both it and Singularity and greatly preferred the former. Singularity, sorry to say, was a bit of a dull Bioshock retread, but fairly well-polished if that's your kind of game.

LittleBigPlanet Spiderman and Elektra costumes are incorrectly priced from $1.99 down to $.49

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...1.51_47&fsc=-1

Also, for anyone that may have wanted the PSP game What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord 2 at $1.99 I did pick up an extra one if you're interested.
