Brutal Legend (360 or PS3) is available for $3 with free store pickup (if your local shop has it available) at Best Buy.
It's available near me if anyone really wants it and it's not close to you (I can ship it to you). It's a fun game and totally worth $3. Gamestop has it for $5 used, which isn't bad either.

EDIT: Looks like Rhythm Heaven (DS) is $3, too. I had a lot of fun with it as a rental and would pick it up if it were at one of my local stores: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rhythm+Heaven+-+Nintendo+DS/9208591.p?id=1218059106517&skuId=9208591&st=rhythm%20heaven&lp=1&cp=1

derp, fixed the OP :-[

3$ for one of the funnest games this generation? Badass. People who don't get this deal might want to relinquish their "gamer" title :P
-
Hmm it's available in the next town over. But I won't be able to get over there anytime soon.
-
I might need to pick up a few more copies now. I remember picking it up day 1 and I still enjoy the hell out of it.
-
Just edited OP - Rhythm Heaven is also going for the same price.
-
There isnt a copy near me. I would like one!
-
Wow!! Thats so cheap! It makes me happy to hear more people will play those games, but sad to see both of those games selling for so low :[ They deserve better <3
-
I hate that those super awesome sales are always USA only :'( Both games aren't even listed on bestbuy.ca, what the hell :o

Dang, I just checked the store availability for my area and the PS3 version is also unavailable for me... Just the 360 one and Rhythm Heaven available 15 miles away :\

Don't be dismayed by Desocietas' bad tidings!
I have an extra (PS3) Brutal-Legend C.I.B. / Never-used; even :)
...and, it apparently has your name all-over it :o
Consider it an X-Mas present and/or a "pay-it-forward" game...PM me your address & I'll send it out to ya' tomorrow ;)
*ONLY* "Condition" = that you *PLAY* it & let me know what ya' think of it...

Sweet! It doesn't even show up on BB's site anymore, so I'm glad the stores still had some available for your gf.

If you are reading this and you haven't played it, you need to go get Brutal Legend. Unless you hate Jack Black and/or metal... even then go buy it. It's the price of a fancy Starbucks latte thingy. It's a shame the BS they had to go through to get this game shipped because it really is fantastic. I can't overstate how much of a bargain $4.99 for this game is.
-
The game really is pretty neat. :D

How dare anyone hate metal?!?!?
Actually, Jack Black is excellent in this game. His own performance is really good, but like his character in the game, he takes a backseat and lets all the other voice talents shine. You got Lemmy, Rob Halford and Ozzy all having great performances too.

I was actually talking to another gamer about this just last week. We were talking about games that really grab you right out of the gate. As an older player I tend to be a bit jaded and games have less of a visceral impact on me than they did when I was young. However Brutal Legend was the exception.
The live video intro with Jack going into the record store just lets you know that this game is going to be different. Then you get to play with the album cover menu. The best part for me is when Eddie is first transported to the metal realm and he's about to pick up the ax for the first time. There's this riff in the background. "Hey that sort of sounds like Black Sabbath... is that the riff from Children of the Damned?" Then Eddy picks up the ax and the riff seamlessly blasts forth into the full song! Eddie begins dismembering unholy zealots. "Yes! HOLY F*CK YES!" Goosebumps. :)

I was right there with you. The game was awesome. I was pulled in from the demo, then just had to go get it. I love all the metal references in it, too. It really does help to be a metal fan to enjoy this game, though.
