With the worldwide economic downturn still raging unabated, many are looking for ways to stretch their already pulled-taut dollar. Despite recently reporting a twofold fourth-quarter loss, Take-Two Interactive imprint 2K Games provided one such way today, in the form of a discount for several of its top titles.

No Caption Provided

Until the end of the month, gamers can visit www.2kgames.com/coupon to print out a coupon (pictured) that will lop $10 off the cost of Civilization Revolution (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360), Civilization IV: Colonization (PC), NBA 2K9 (PC, PS3, 360), NHL 2K9 (PS3, 360, Wii), and BioShock (PS3 only). For the more casually minded, the coupon also discounts Carnival Games (Wii, DS), Carnival MiniGolf (Wii), and Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Snow Princess (Wii, DS).

The 2K coupon can be redeemed at a number of participating retailers including (but not limited to): Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, GameStop, Game Crazy, Virgin, Hastings, Meijer, f.y.e., and Fred Meyer. It cannot be used for online purchases.

Already bought NBA 2K9 at Target for $40 on Black Friday, but I will definitely pick up Bioshock now. It'll be $30 after this coupon. That's sweet.

Steam had bioshock for $5 but there was still some debate whether securom was still being used (steam bioshock forum). I was going to purchase but I refuse to purchase anything with securom. Another sale lost to idiotic DRM schemes!

to "buzzguy", coupon says US only, but I think ebgames was offering the same for their boxing week specials. And I think THQ games were also 10 bix off.

Darn it, shouldn't have bought bioshock last month then, but the guy 2 posts below probably had it harder. Dude, you should just go back to wherever you got the game and just do a price match.

Glad they are doing it. Nice gesture and all, but honestly, too little to get me off my sofa. $20 and I would be in the car.

I still think 60$ for Bioshock was too much considering it was a late port, also at the very least they could have made the DLC free.

Eh, already have Civ and Bioshock and I'm just not buying Colonization unless they release a version that isn't bundled with invasive DRM software.
