Anyone who is thinking about getting it I highly recommend you do, one of the best games I've played so far this year.

I plan on being a dick and buying 5-6 and then selling them for profit/trade then.

I'll keep one however, I want to play this game.

But I will probably not be a dick.

I waited out the last month for this sale.

When did EB Games match the sale though?

Why is this game even on sale? I don't think there's ever been a hot new highly rated games ever going on sale.

A definite buy at that price. A great experience for those who like action/superhero games.

Too bad EB games already changed their TIV for these games. I imagine the other stores have as well.

Just wait a few weeks when it's back up to $70 and throw it up on Kijiji.

I bought this morning. I plan on beating it quickly and hopefully making $10 or $15 profit off it on Kijiji once I'm done.

I was going to pick a copy up if there were any left during the online Canada Day sale tonight but not surprisingly they sold out pretty quick. I'm not too disappointed though. I tried the demo and didn't think it was terrible but it didn't impress me enough to want it. I probably just would have used it as trade bait for another new game or sold it on Ebay and bought another game.

Take it from me, I wasnt terribly impressed by the demo either, infact I got bored of it within 20mins. It was just meh to me.

I ended up buying the game last week and I cant tell you how fun it is. Im normally not a fan of the "GTA like" open world, but this game is so addicting. I just cant put the controller down. Its much MUCH better than the demo. Well worth the $30.

Well, maybe if Futureshop.ca or Bestbuy.ca show anymore back in stock by Thursday maybe I'll pick up a copy. Just like you I got bored with the demo pretty quick.

Don't listen to these fools who cannot appreciate a terrific game. I bought Infamous for 100$ down here in Aus (usual price for games - we get raped). For 30$ this more than worth it.

holy hell!! that's crazy.

and yes infamous is a great game. I lent it to a friend and cannot wait to get it back and start an evil run through. Heck, I might end up buying it again tomorrow and letting him keep my old copy.

ps if you see uncharted and haven't played it you should get it also.

Picked it up today at Futureshop, they had lots left. I have played a few hours into it, I am super impressed with the gameplay, but haven't gotten into it yet, should be good though soon.

The game starts off a little slow but it gets better quickly and really picks up near the end. The game has a great, exciting story but it takes a few missions to get into it.
