The fact that you can’t invert the Y-axis in the game keeps me from jumping at this deal. That, piled on top of all the control complaints I read in reviews when the game came out.

I’m with you Steve. I probably will never pick up the game if you can’t invert the stick. Very bad omission.

World of Goo just went to $10 on Amazon. Buying now…
p.s. Shipping is $5.
edit: Maybe for five bucks more I’ll just buy the game directly from 2dboy. hmm

It’s prime eligible, $9.98 shipped for me. I already own it though… D-:
Holy crap, WoG sold out in under 10 minutes. Good thing I ordered my copy before coming back here.
Sluggo gave it a 5/5. I guess I’ll have to bite for $9.98.
It’s showing that 17% have been claimed on my screen as of 5:08 p.m EST.
Edit: While it’s still showing far less than 100% claimed, in the little meter, all of the available copies appear to have been claimed as you can no longer add it to your cart. I must’ve barely gotten one!
Has the Steam version ever gone on sale?
Sorry to ninja-delete on you there, MSUSteve. Tried to cover up my idiocy: forgot that by “claimed” it meant I’d ordered one, not that they’re all gone.
Unfortunately, now I have to ninja-delete you.
EDIT: BTW, if you need a cart-filler to hit $25 for free shipping, why not consider some delicious hot chocolate?
Once you claim one, the Add to Cart button goes away for you. This prevents you from claiming more than one (i.e., hording) under the same account.
Hurrr. Maybe unbongwah should ninja delete me.
I was under the impression that Silent Hill 5 had a control bug in the PS3 version but not the 360 version. Are there other control problems?
I only just now checked it, and it allowed me to order it.
Not bugs with the controls, but my memory of the reviews is that the controls overall weren’t particularly responsive, especially regarding combat.

Yes during the After Xmas sale that was referenced in a bunch of threads.
It was on sale along with everything else on Steam during the week-after-Christmas (boxing week?) sale. I picked it up for $14.99.
Hey CalvinGT, courtesy of Slickdeals: Dell is having another one of their deals. You can get a 360 Arcade Bundle for $158. You have to click “Add to Cart” in order to see the discounted price.
And for others in the market for a PS3. The 80 GB PS3 w/ no BC for $316.
For me, it’s coming up as free shipping, but I’m also getting hit with tax here in Missouri, so that might vary by state. How come Dell always has the best deals on game consoles? It’s so bizarre.
Man, for $158 I almost feel compelled to pickup an Arcade Bundle to have in reserve for the likely future failure of my third Xbox 360.
Gamefly just sent me a coupon for $10 off any game $30 or over. I’m trying to decide among Farcry 2, Fable 2, and Saint’s Row 2.
Oh, good through 21st.
While they’re all great games, I’d go with Saint’s Row 2.
