Plus if you go to TRU you get the game in hand on release day. How many times has Amazon guaranteed release day delivery only then to not come through?

Oh, I didn't know that was even a possible problem. This is the first time I've done release day delivery, but I can't imagine there'd be that issue.

If TRU has the $20 gift card deal, I'm thinking that's the way I'm going since I have a ton of gift cards there.

Also, Best Buy has a 10% off reward zone coupon coming out and they carry the LE version. So that would make it $89.99 after coupon. And you get $10 off the GOW collection. So that's kind of tempting too.

If you're paying less than $59.99 for this game then you are doing a disservice to the monumental accomplishment that this game is.

Indeed. You all should be buying two copies of this game at full price!

And then sell me one for $20

You all are quite dismissive of this man's salient points. Frankly, it's about time that somebody stood up against bias journalism. Too many games have been denied 10s due to this scourge of the gaming press industry.

I'm going to start a game review site, but I'm going to go to 11.

Why don't you just make 10 count for more?

Because 11 is 1 more. Games I review will get a bump just by getting my attention, they're better than games I don't play by definition.

Yeah but 11 is just really 10 in disguise. May as well make it 42.

Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?

How much more awesome could God of War III be? The answer is none. None more awesome.

In my case, never. Got FFXIII two days ago, in fact.

Well, on my scale (bias aside), it could be 1 more awesome.

Thats because everyone is buying new units to replace their YLOD systems.

My father-in-law has been waiting for GoW3 since GoW2 came out.

He played the demo, and said it just saved him $65.

What's this $10 coupon to TRU I see people talking about?

I'm on the fence about picking this up, but I think that would seal the deal.
