Not sure how much traffic we get in here but giving my fellow achievement hounds a heads up as it's currently $20 at Gamestop (online or in-store). Free shipping code is XB2D. Still about twice the price at half.com and amazon.
Seems like a decently straight forward 1000.

Wow, didn't it just come out? That's a hefty drop. Cheers for the heads up.

Might as well. I've heard that the game is pretty painful, but I'm a slave to my achievement whore tendencies.
Thanks for the heads up.

I was about to call BS, but after going to the Gamestop website I stand corrected. It is listed at $19.99 - $40.00 off.
All I can say is this game must SUCK!
Details below.

I frequent slickdeals a lot and saw this on the front page and came directly here to check out the achievement breakdown. So I can't take full credit for the find.

im kinda tempted, but its been out like 2 weeks. if a game has that drastic of a price drop, it has to be shittastic.
but hey why not, how easy is it to get most of the achievements?

I heard the game really does suck... and this price drop confirms it. Oh well though, good for the buyers. I think i'll just hold off and rent it still. A friend (that doesn't even really go for the full 1000 or achieves) said he got the full 1000 in about 12 hours. He thought he could have done it sooner but wasn't paying attention to the achieves and had to go through the game 1 more time to get them all. He also said that the hardest difficulty is cake! To me, thats not worth a buy

LMFAO....if they can add ginormous to the dictionary I think this should be in the new edition.

Just because the game dropped that must doesnt always mean that it sucks. Speaking as a store manager for EB Games/Gamestop, this happens from time to time, especially around christmas time. choice titles go down. Just because it is 19.99 right now doesnt mean it will stay that way.

This game isn't worth ten dollars, it's that bad. Has a nod from me as the WORST GAME on the 360. At least what I've played. I never played Pimp My Ride, but I hear that it's pretty awful. Probably bout the same as this. Do yourselves a favor and if your really curious spend less money renting it. you will be glad you did. trust me!

But a week ago it was $59.99 and a week before that it was brand new.
I think however, that what they're doing here is clever. This is a movie based game, which means that unless it's a pure solid gold game no one is going to buy this for much longer, as interest in the movie fades, so goes the game.
So why not sell a few more copies of this crappy game before it's truly dead. I'm sure they're not making any 'new' copies so let's move the ones that are sitting on the shelf.
$19.99 will do just that.

For the people who played this game, is it even worth it buying the game for 20 bucks?

I cannot believe the price drop on this game so fast, that is uber LOL. It must be pretty craptastic. I would be all kinds of pissed off if I had paid full price for this game.

I think this game meets standards to be a 40-60 dollar game. But Christmas season came and they were the only company to drop prices for more profit. Think of the game like this, God of War, Meets Conan, and then add difficulty like Ninja Gaiden. This game gets a 4.5 out of 5 from me.

Truthfully the game isn't that bad - is it good? Hell no. Its easy, and its a fast beat - and in my opinion was more fun than Conan.
As for the price, go pick up a used copy - GameCrazy (if there is one near you) is selling for $12 used. Really can't beat it for the price. And for those of you who haven't seen the movie (first, save your money, and never, ever watch it), the game will more than entertain you to be worth its money, and it will be much more interesting than the movie itself.
