Really good deal at Best Buy for Brothers In Arms Hell's Highway Limited Edition:
Reward Zone Members use coupon linked here:
https://myrewardzone.bestbuy.com/vie...jspx?tc=CPN_20
That will take $20 off the game. The game is now listing for $49.99, but it seems everyone is finding it ringing up for less. For me it rang up at $34.99 so it cost me $14.99 + tax, but others are finding it for less than $30 and getting it for under $10.
The Limited Edition comes with an articulated 6" action figure seen below:
The Best Buy version also comes with a mini-strategy guide, FWIW.

Gamestop is showing a new Limited Edition of the game on sale for $59.99, $10 more than the regular PC version.
What do you get for that extra 10 bucks? You get a 6 inch Sgt. Matt Baker action figure with 13 accessories along with the first issue of the Dynamite Entertainment Brothers in Arms comic book and a map of the actual Operation Market Garden (the real WWII battle that is the setting for the game). If you pre-order the Limited Edition, Gamestop will even include two models (the German Commander and the American Assault model). It's unclear if these last two are in-game models or actual action figures. The game itself ships on Sept.23.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
I don't know if this has been posted anywhere, but I saw a commercial where Sports Illustrated is bundling Madden 10 (any console) with 28 issues of the magazine for $49, and you get some documentary about John Madden as well. They're touting it as a free game with the magazine, but of course I see it as a free magazine with the game. I don't think they'd deliver it as fast as Amazon, but it seems like a good deal if you can live with the possibility that the game will arrive a little later.
Here's the address: sitvoffer.com
Edit: this is one of those deals with automatic renewal, where you have to tell them to stop sending the magazine or you'll get charged again.

I probably would have passed on Madden this year but the SI offer was too good to pass up.

I went ahead and got in on the Madden/SI deal. Couldn't resist for $15 off retail price, plus some mags to read.

Speaking of good Amazon deals, here's what I posted on CAG to almost complete indifference:

Yeah, it's not the greatest deal on points we've ever seen, but for the first time since the ECA discount promotion appeared, Amazon is selling physical points cards for shipment. They're discounted 50 cents or $19.49 before discount, but that makes them $17.54 after ECA. A good deal for those with Amazon Prime. Even better, you also qualify for the $5 MP3 credit with purchase.

I know it. I'm mostly indifferent about the setlist and only lukewarm about the idea of a Sammy-less VH game, but the deal is definitely getting sweeter. I can turn around and use that $10 coupon on Halo ODST. I might be pulling the trigger today.

Not sure if anyone wants it but Amazon has GH: Smash Hits (all 3 consoles) for $45.49 right now. I figure someone might want it for the export feature.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
Not sure if this should go here or in the XBLA thread, but there's a decent deal going on with arcade titles purchased from Amazon. They're running that promotion where you get a $5 MP3 Store credit with every purchase. Since I already spend about $20/month on their MP3s, I ordered four XBLA games to get $20 in credit. I never received any emails with my promo codes though, so I called customer service. The rep says the system isn't set up to automatically generate promo codes for XBLA games, but that they do qualify, so they're just giving people the appropriate amount of store credit instead. Since their system isn't working automatically, you have to call and deal with customer service, but you basically get $5 back for each XBLA title you buy.

For those with a Fry's : They are selling the legendary Street Fighter IV Tournament Edition FightSticks for PS3 and 360 for $89.99 today only (MSRP $149.99). I don't really need that stick, but damn it's nice. So what the hell, I made the trip and got one!
