On Order - Usually ships in 10-15 business days
Not available for store pickup

I'm guessing shipping would take about 3 weeks. Looks more like a pre-order. Must resist.....

Yep. The mere availability of Steel Battalion is a hot deal in its own right!

EDIT-
Nevermind I see why
Considering that USED full copies of Steel Battalion have been going for ~$300 on eBay due to low supply/high demand...the ability to get a new copy for retail price is actually awesome news.

BTW: I was waffling on whether to purchase SB or not...until I saw a demo video on Gamespot. HOLY MACKEREL!

I haven't heard about any such offering becoming standard from any of my sources.
Several stores have already run promos that include a 3rd game--normally something like NFL Fever or Amped--in addition to the dual JSRF/Sega GT 2002 disc.

But all these have been store-specific, limited time offers.
And the 3rd game has not been a choosable option IIRC for any of those deals.

CompUSA.com has 10% off XBox games. The coupon code is on their site. Would be nice if you could use this for Steel Batallion, but it says "sold out" on their site and "coming soon" for stores. You can always try calling and trying to get it.

No, truth to MS doing that. If it does happen it would be the retailer doing the bundling.

Just called...the answer I got was "Totally out of stock. No chance it will be back in stock again."

The game was supposed to be really really bad. I wonder if this means it'll become popular due to rarity. Air Force Delta Storm wasn't that great, albeit better tha Kajuto, and now it's worth a ton.

I saw a bunch of them at the local BB, so get 'em while you still can. If you really want it that is.
