Well I snagged it and it had a sticker on the box for a free game rental. Wow, can't wait to play it. I hope Medal of Honor goes on discount sale price as well.

@syzygy - Thanks! Ran out and got Metroid as soon as I saw your post. I'm gonna think over RE 0 for one more day...
The Blockbuster website also listed these at $19.99:
007: Nightfire - PS2
Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance - Xbox
Super Mario Sunshine - GC
Starfox Adventures - GC
I think it depends on what's left in the store, though...

I work for Blockbuster, and there were several games that went down $20 -$30 last week. The email didn't get to my store until last night (the most ancient text-based one-way email system ever! >.< ), but the prices downloaded on March 28th. The games that went to $19.99 included:
GCB Metroid Prime
GCB Resident Evil Zero
XBX Madded 2003
XBX Blinx
XBX Mech Assault
XBX Metal Gear Solid: Substance
I say included because the email only includes games that are shown in inventory at the time it's sent. Other games went down to $29.99, but most were games that you could get for that price elsewhere. A bunch of the accessories also went way down in price.
By the way, the free game rental sticker expired on 01/31/03. You may be able to argue your way into using it, though.

I hit 3 Blockbusters on the way home last night, the last had 6 copies
of Metroid left (El Camino and Kiely, Santa Clara Ca if anyone is local). Thanks
for the tip.
