...now is a darn good time. While you won't find Circuit City's 9.99 BG&E deal on xbox (ps2 only), a bunch of sites are offering this zelda style game for only 19.99. I've heard nothing but good things about this game, in fact the worst thing i've heard is it's a sleeper hit. Here's Linkage to 3 online storesamazon (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?tag=videogamescheap&path=tg/detail/-/B00009ZVHR) best buy (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?j=1&CategoryID=cat02121&id=1060002781574&skuId=5864479&type=product) ebgames (http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/236397.asp?siteID=nFQfGaScW7s-qVQZuJ5zIpkYvRLxFuF7Uw) EGM gave this game an 8.5, 9.0, and 8.0, and while i've already picked up a copy i advise you all to do the same! i also found out that IGN gave this game a 9.0! woo!

EDIT

more stores that have a 19.99 BG&E are gamestop (http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product%5Fid=210427) ign (http://gamestore.ign.com/product.asp?product_id=210427&affid=6500) circuit city (but sold out last time i checked) (http://www.circuitcity.com/gamedetail.jsp?c=1&b=g&qp=0&bookmark=bookmark_0&oid=81670&catoid=-10782)

I played it for only a few minutes at a friends house. He was really into it and i can see how its fun but right now i am playing PoP and am loving it. I will probably try it out for pc again though.

I also heard it was an excellent title. Isn't that a Ubi-Soft game? They are great game developers.

To use the gyro disc all you have to do is switch to the camera mode and then in camera mode you will notice a white dot that is aside from tne camera's focus use it for firing by pressing the small back button. In all you simply press the black button to go to camera mode and the black button to fire while in camera mode.

Well I went to go rent this.. but none of the video stores had it :(
They also didn't have any Racing Evolution or ESPN College Hoops. Yet they had The Sims Busting Out which is a newer game then the others!!!!

Also wanted to note that on ebgames.com right now BG&E is on backorder for Xbox and is listed for $19.99

WOW, $20 they must have screwed up. The games been getting great reviews everywhere. I personally think it's awsome.

So do what MM3 says and pick it up NOW!

I played it last night and tonight. Its very fun, kinda like a Zelda so far, but not really like a zelda. The gameplay is very easy to get into. I thought i was watching a cutscene in the beginning and to find out that i was supposed to be fighting. The graphics are sweet, and the characters are original and very comical. The environments i have visited are nice, and the fighting systems are simple enough to get right into without reading a book and learning how to do this and that. The puzzles so far were very easy, mind you im only in the very first mission. I like the game, and i will probably complete this by the weekend. This game is a breath of fresh air from the more serious games i always play like ghost recon, splinter cell, deus ex, and rainbow six 3. This game is a gem and i am having a ton of fun.
