Other than seeing everyone on this forum rant about it, this is honestly the first time I've ever actually seen the game's box art and/or screenshots.

And it doesn't look that good.

The game doesn't look good at all when you look at screenshots and all that, but it is good. I don't know why.

And this sucks, I bought used for $35 or $40, I don't remember.

Any idea if this is an actual price drop or just a temporary sale?
If it sticks around I'll probably get it by the end of the month.

Pretty sure this is Gamestop/EB's new price for the game.

It retailed for $40. Then dropped to $30(most stores currently sell it for this).

Now it is $20.

Killer game and well worth $20-$40.

At this price how can you not pick it up guys?

i bought it a couple weeks ago & i have really enjoyed it. i really didn't think i was going to, which was why it took me so long to buy it. but seriousl 20 dollars is nothing. if i didn't already have it, i'd buy it.

Really is ashame that this game didn't sell as well as it should have.
The funny part is everyone complains that there isn't any good 3rd party games but there are plenty of them but no one buys them. So the publishers think hmmm... why publish a quality 3rd party title that will not do well when I can publish another stupid game that for some reason will sell... This is the same reason 'Conduit' still doesn't have a publisher yet...

- Zack & Wiki
- OKAMI
- Resident Evil:4
- Geometry Wars: Galaxies
- Scarface
- No More Heroes
- Bully
- SSX Blur (only if you have patience with new controls)

These are just a few games off the top of my head that everyone should atleast Rent... and they are all quality 3rd party titles that deserve much more attention than they recieve.

According to amazon.com...

Discontinued by manufacturer: Yes

So I'm guessing it's more of a clearance price.

Oh dear.

Everyone, go buy Zack and Wiki, especially if you liked all those old point and click adventures like Monkey Island.

Yeah it's a pity it didn't really sell well. This is an excellant game, and that is an excellant price. You'd be mad not to pick it up.
