Walmart.com was the way to go if you were looking to pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, as they were giving at $15 gift card to anyone buying the game. No, it is not as good as a $15 discount, but at least you could make up some of your losses with groceries or batteries or that peanut butter and jelly in the same jar crap.
Amazon has stepped up to the plate to match Walmart's deal. Kind of. All of the versions of Modern Warfare 2 have some kind of money bonus attached to them. The standard PS3, Xbox 360 and PC versions all match Walmart's deal, giving buyers $15 toward another purchase. The $80 Hardened Edition and the $150 Prestige Edition both have a $10 bonus attached to them. I guess they figure if you've got that much cash, you don't need as much of a bonus.
You can pick from the various versions here.

For instance the new silent hill game on the wii is going to cost 70 dollars
I swear US ppl have a taste like a horse
I find this site amusing. It reminds me of when I was a teenager and I read Hit Parader and shit like that. Shallow, but amusing.
Anywho Amazon kicks ass. Recent purchases have converted me into an Amazon fanboy.
So I will be purchasing from them, and use my card for the next trade paperback of "The Walking Dead" which comes out soon.
Either way, beats the hell out of the "Exclusive gamer picture" offered at Gamestop. Fucking lame.
I think the game and the studio should be boycotted period.
PS. COD4 was a rental.
The SP was as on rails a shooter as I have played in a long time. The AI sucked.
3 days done , chuck.
Although the devs. Defending the sp game lenght ny saying that people will get way more because it has multiplayer. Sounds like a long way of saying "yup it's another" 5 hours campaign. And this is from someone who generalies starts playing on the harder difficulties (no hardest on cod cause the nades makes it more frustrating than fun.
Any but yeH, if I can get it at $40 I can sorts overlook the puny campaign.
