No, you are not wrong. It was taken away for some reason even though the game can still be pre-ordered.
Found it in a cached page on Google:
What the hell is the meaning of this? This thing looks awesome. And now it's disappeared before the game even unlocks.

I don't know if it's a glitch but right now you can buy the Special Edition cheaper than it would have been pre-ordering with that coupon.
Edit: Yeah, it was a glitch and it's now fixed.
I actually saw that, but they fixed the price by the time I had my card information in. I thought I lucked out!
Yes, F5.
Impressions when i get home!
Hmm 4:3 shots?
Will be posting glorious widescreen shots with probably some SweetFX to make it darker and more moody.
I've turned those options down already, i couldnt allow this game to drop below 60.
Next zone looks better, but still quite crappy, but at least has tons of stuff to destroy or just throw.

Can't wait to max the fuck out of this game. Gorgeous.
Yay, great news.
Fortunately Interceptor will be patching quick saving into ROTT. Huzzah!

Its time for WANG !
I'd maybe try a demo of this, but I couldn't get into Hard Reset so I'm going to pass for now.
Didn't know that. Weak, but I've already beaten it.

I really want this, but I have enough to play already. I hope a demo comes soon to help convince me :<

First level done, 23% money found, 1/8 secrets. I need to pay more attention to my surroundings.
Graphics are hit or miss, looks beautiful at times and looks very ugly at times.
Also, there's a little Easter Egg at the start of the game. If you turn around and start walking down the road, you get signs that say "Road Closed 400m." At the end, it looks like you're just coming up on a flat texture/invisible wall, but when you get closer its actually a large sheet and there's a hole ripped in it, on the other side is Hard Reset. Its a clever way of handling something that most games would do a stupid cop-out like road construction signs, or a rockslide that blocked off the road. Its dumb, but appropriately dumb given the game.

Fighting is so amazing in this game, so rewarding. I'll make tons of gifs later
Did i mention that game is extremely fast?
YES I love how fast it is! I'm loving how frantic the swordplay is.

It'd be tough for me to say from only one level. If the game can be played primarily with the sword I'd think you'd be fine, but from the limited shooting I've done it seems imprecise even with a mouse, I think it'd be brutal with a controller.

Need to get this, here are some GIFs I made from earlier footage:

I believe shadow warrior will or has already exceeded my expectations, after only the first two levels. level design is boring, but the gameplay is really really fun, as expected after the videos. I have to agree its one of the most fun fps this year, at least around the level of gunslinger. I suppose there will also be a new game + with this big amount of skills to unlock? anyone know how many chapters there are? I hope its not a too short.
17 chapters. Go to the load screen and you can replay missions. And yes, it has Hard Reset's EX Mode, which is New Game +
My 5 minutes combat video from end of 1st chapter and beginning of second.

It make one(or more?) ennemies explode in a 4 metres radius.
I was only able to squeeze in about a half hour this afternoon and I absolutely love the Katana combat. So much fun. Can't wait to play more tonight.
Awesome.
Awesome.
17 chapters goddamn
That's probably why it costs $10 more than Hard Reset did when it launched. I'm guessing it's at least twice as long.
It's not a super impressive looking game but it's ok, my good old 560 is still able to keep up lol
It'S cool that the tree is casting a purple/pink shadow on the ground.
LOL, where can I find this easter egg?
Also, killing rabbits may unleash a fearsome demon rabbit, that has its own metal soundtrack. Pretty cool little touch in the game.
Will try searching for it then.
Seems like Godzilla can be found in the background of the second stage wreaking havoc after reaching the top of the hill of the very first area. You need to look back after reaching the top, the area just before the arcade.
