Last Remnant No Longer $40 on Amazon After Platinum Famitsu Review

17
The Last Remnant, a game previously doomed to the bargain bin before it was even released, has received a near perfect score from prestigious Japanese gaming mag Weekly Famitsu. The game got a 10/10/9/9 and a shiny Platinum Award. Amazon, which had previously been selling the game for a mere $40.00, must have been reading.

1 - I never purchased a game from Amazon
Normally an online purchase is not charged until it ships and at that time the MSRP is used. I've never used Amazon so I can't say if people who put an order through already will actually get the lower price, but good luck to them.

PirateThom, I was thinking about buying the Destrroy All Humans new game coming out in December because I want it and Gamestop has it listed right now for 39.99 and they say you get a free bobblehead too. Do you know if Gamestop is one of the stores that follows that rule?

They will.

Most stores have a guarantee that if you buy it, that's the price you will be charged, unless they cancel the order (for example, the price is way to low, due to an error), but they'll always inform you and never process it without permission.

5 - I ordered it the other day...STILL GETTING IT CHEAPER!!
I just checked the page, and it said 'you already ordered this product...view your order' and I clicked on it, and it's still gonna be 39.96! Now, if the price would DROP before they shipped it, I'd get the lowest price. So, this is a win/win situation. I got the low price by listening to the thread on here the other day that told me about the low price, but if it would happen to go down in price, I'd get that price. Amazon rules. I did get a guide that had a minor defect, I reported it, printed out the postage labels to return it, and they give you 30 days to return it before getting charged...while the replacement arrived in 2 days. I am sold.

Yeah, what kind of company is this? Trying to maximize profits when they realize that there's a chance demand for the product will be high, I mean, that's just ridiculous.

After watching some videos of the overworld gameplay, I can safely say that this game sucks balls.

Hmm. Well isn't Famitsu the same as Kotaku? Either way if their reviews are well respected by Japanese people well than you can expect a surge again in 360 sales when this is released in Japan.
