Good price if you like used.  $20 is the cheapest it's been new on PS3 I think so far.

I jumped on it, $5 is a great price.

It was actually free* since it also came with $5 of free credit towards a "top download title of 2011".

Didn't Best Buy used to have "online prices" that they would act dumb about? I remember going there once and something that was way cheap online was full price in the store, and they had a separate "website" for in-store that didn't list the sale prices.

Best Buy seems to have crazy deals every day.  Yesterday had FEAR 3, James Bond Bloodstone, Motorstorm 3, and other games for $5.

Right now:

Steel Diver 3DS or Pilotwings 3DS for $5  (appropriate price for pilotwings at least).
Homefront for $15

Got L.A. Noire for 360 for 10 bucks.  Best Buy cancelled one of my orders for christmas so they sent me a 10 dollar gift card last night.  yesssssssssssss!!

The only game I'm missing from last year now is Portal 2.  I got everything else I've wanted.  This holiday season has rocked for game deals.

For some reason I had $10 worth of rewards certificates sitting in my account. I haven't bought much of anything at BB all year, unless they mistakenly counted the full price of the Kindles I traded games towards, and even then...well, who gives a fuck, no take-backs.  I figured $10 was pretty awesome to rebuy a game I loved. I'll play with you some online, Demi.  I had deleted all my game info off the HDD, though, so I'll be starting over at level 1 probably.

I used my US address and paypal.

However it's possible they might have figured out that everyone from the US was buying it through them and US THQ yelled at them and they did something to block it.

DS2 and U3 are ~10 hours (U3 feels longer because it has some horrid pacing in the middle).  Batman AC was around ~25 to do everything in the main game (no NG+ or challenges); 2 or 3 times larger than AA.

so yeah, a few days depending on how much you play.

best to worst is probably Batman AC > DS2 > U3

I went ahead and bought it, $13 would be the price if it were 67% off the normal 39.99 price, and I figured that's probably about as low as it's going to go unless you get in on a four-pack.  Unless some other crazy $2.50 deals pop up on Steam or elsewhere, I think I'm all done.
