'Metro: Last Light' current $.01 on Best Buy's website

Examiner: "If you act now, and head on over to Best Buy's website, you can nab yourself a copy of Metro: Last Light for only a penny. In what's surely an error, many are capitalizing on the mistake and purchasing the title which released just two months ago."

It's not there for me...

EDIT: Never mind it worked lol! That is so awesome... Hopefully it goes through...

Kamikaze83935d ago

Worked for me, though they give you a code to enter on their website to get the code. Kinda stupid, but I'll take it for a penny.

Snookies123935d ago (Edited 3935d ago )

Seriously appreciate the heads up on this! :]

I really wanted to check this game out, and if I do like it I'll definitely try and buy the game again to support the devs.

Testfire3935d ago

Lol, my PC can't even dream to run this and I'm not upgrading anytime soon. Gonna sell the code on Ebay.

aCasualGamer3935d ago

Guys, if i want to get this game and i don't live in US, how can i get this offer from Bestbuy?

PM me if you'd be kind enough to buy this to me.

PLASTICA-MAN3935d ago

Does it work on steam? I want achievements !

BluEx6103935d ago (Edited 3935d ago )

Holy shit it's still active for .01 cent lol. I'm ordering like 50 of these. I just bought a Graphic Card and a day later they started a promotion for free Metro Last Light with it. I was bummed, but now I'm happy. =)

aCasualGamer3935d ago

Guess i'm not getting this fine deal as i don't live in US and i don't have a valid adress >=/

adorie3935d ago

That game wasn't even worth a cent. It sucked

GuyThatPlaysGames3934d ago

This game has nothing to do with CoD

NeXXXuS3934d ago (Edited 3934d ago )

It's an FPS.

Why thank you Examiner!!! This is a crazy deal!

Edit: Ah, it's the PC version! Still good, but I was hoping for the console version of the game. Still a steal!

ginsunuva3934d ago

Why would you want the console version of a pc graphical powerhouse?

Xaphy3934d ago

because not everyone has a monster pc?

No Way3934d ago (Edited 3934d ago )

Cause I have a laptop that freezes up with too many internet tabs open! :S

Murad3934d ago

@Xaphy
I actually agree with you. Sadly I would say that PC is better, but in all honesty, it better be because it costed me a ton of money to upgrade it to EVGA GTX 760 and even more with a power supply, but got to say, the Console version looks fabulous as well.

animegamingnerd3935d ago

i am tempted to do it but i am worried they would fix this and charge 60$

Snookies123935d ago

I don't think they could do that. The product is labeled as such on the website, and it is giving you confirmation before purchase that the price is $0.01. Which means you are buying it from them at THAT set price. They can't charge you anything over that, because it was their mistake. For all we know, it could have been a promotional sale or something... (Sure, it's not lol) but you get my point.

Testfire3935d ago

The price is legit, but it was only supposed to be a promo price for those who bought certain graphic cards, it wasn't supposed to be available to everyone. And they can't charge you any more that .01 without your consent, you consented to .01 any further charges would be illegal.

Kamikaze83935d ago

Yeah, they can't that would be illegal.

InTheLab3935d ago

It's their error,not yours. It's illegal to advertise a price and adjust it after money is exchanged...

konnerbllb3935d ago

In addition to what others have said above me, the most they could do is cancel the order.

InTheLab3935d ago (Edited 3935d ago )

Must have fixed it :/ Guess I'll wait for the Steam sale...

edit....never mind. If you go through Bestbuy.com it wont work, but if you click the link on Examiner, it will...

jdktech20103935d ago

I would feel bad for doing this. I might end up waiting for the steam sale since this is obviously a mistake and would be robbing the developers money and Best Buy (don't care as much on this one)

InTheLab3935d ago (Edited 3935d ago )

Gonna buy it on Steam now. I feel terrible. Like I just walked out with a game...

Edit: So I'm on Steam and the purchase option is missing. It's only letting me pre order...wth?

jdktech20103935d ago

If you're really purchasing it on steam, wait for the daily deal. I've got a hunch it'll go for 50% of or maybe more. I think 24.99 is the sale price that will happen.

InTheLab3934d ago

Best Buy canceled the order after the purchase so I feel good now about waiting for an actual sale. I'm sure day 5 of Steam's sale will give me a sweet deal...

Metro Video Game Series: A Comprehensive History

The Metro video game series started with a humble b-list title, before building a strong fanbase and becoming a pioneer in the industry.

TheBrainZ72d ago

Never got into Exodus, but 2033 was excellent.

kevco3372d ago

Yeah, Exodus just didn't grab me either, sadly.

I absolutely loved 2033 and Last Light, however. Played them both on 360 and then again with the remasters!

anast71d ago

I just started it and it is already miles better than the first 2 which are dated.

Metro: Last Light - Still Fresh After 10 Years

4A Games' Metro: Last Light originally launched on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC 10 years ago today, and still holds up.

MrDead338d ago

I got bored of Hogwarts crazy quick and it's bugs, was looking for just any good game got the Metro trilogy for about £8.50 in a Steam sale played through 2033 Redux, Last Light Redux and now am on Exodus. The series is awesome, the first two are like more liner story driven FPS with a few options to confront the levels, stealth, no kill runs and guns blazing, depending on how you play effects the story and its outcome. Third game I'm playing now is heavy story driven (but optional if you don't want to listen you can just walk away... I don't know why you would though) with large open levels that take hours to explore and still some of the best use of RTX I've seen to date, can play this game on ultra with DLSS set to quality, raytracing set to ultra at 4K with no dips, played on Extreme setting and was getting a few drops around water and some interiors.

Cant recommend this series enough and as a new fan I can't wait to see the next game in 2024... I also got the audio books so looking forward to see how well the games follow the original books. A4 Games are extremely talented.

ravens52337d ago

Beat Redux and Last Light. Really good games. Haven't played Exodus yet, was thinking I'll get it for ps5 just havent yet. I will.
