They can't give away free games and pay for the postage for very long.

Status : Online | It's true, I just checked it out. The game is $39.99 with a $40.00 mail in rebate if you buy by August 16 and the game does qualify for free shipping in the USA.
They actually had the same thing for Lord of the Rings a few months ago, $39.99 with a $40.00 rebate.
Thanks for the tip wachtarz!

If you order 100 Enter the Matrix you get a buck. :

Status : Online | Yeah, I don't know what it is. Every so often they'll put out rebates on games that will bring the price down to around $10.00 or sometimes even free as in this case. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it, you just have to check the games you're interested in every so often. ???
Maybe the do the biggest rebates on games that aren't selling well ???

Status : Online | I'm a bit confused about this mail in rebate. I went to Amazon.com and typed in Enter The Matrix in the search bar. Went to buy it, and nowhere did the site give mention about the $40 mail in rebate? Can someone clue me in as to where to access this part? Thanks!

Status : Online | Sorry Lakerz, it looks like they're sold-out of the rebate copies, since the rebate is no longer there. Normally, once you pick the platform and the price is displayed, it will have a link that will take you to a printable version of the rebate form.
With that link no longer being there I can only surmise that they've run out of copies.
