I'm PM'ing BBuy. I'm thinking of buying it today to insure I have it and then returning and rebuying on Sunday.
My plan is: Hit BBuy first (it's a 100% pricematch as I already have a manager who assured me he will let me use the coupon) and see if I can everything I want. If not, then I'll take a trip to Toys R Us to pick up another coupon, see if I can find anything there, and if there's stuff I still want then go to Circuit City (who will also do it... it's where I got the 3 GC games last week).
But Best Buy is my main place.
I can't wait also

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I do use a lot of the special moves. But seems like people can get on my tail real easy. Do you people use the black button to track your enemies during an engaged dogfight?

Btw, let me say that I really suck at flying games. Still having a lot of fun with this game even I'm getting my a$$ handed to me by pretty much every Tom, Dick, and Harry out there.
Gromit sent me down to the ground in a burning, smoking wreck many many times last nite. Thanks a lot man!

I wonder if you bought it today, and then opened it, could you go back to Best Buy on Sunday, show them the ad and then get the two extra games for an extra $50?

yeah really, it's Best Buy we're talking about, afterall.

What about picking up 2 games, then heading to Best Buy on Sunday for the third one? I know two games I want already, but I haven't decided on a third.

I'm thinking you won't be able to do it unless you RETURN them and THEN make the deal. I wouldn't advise it if you think the games will still be there on Sunday.

young - seems like the black button shows you the closest enemy. So it switches depending on who's closest. I guess...
Also, the voice thing... The white button is to broadcast to your entire team. The other team still won't hear you. Could be usefull to call for help when your team isn't near you...

My Best Buy is weird, I have no idea if they'd have them on Sunday or not. I think they have them now, at least according to the website, but they tend to sell out quick. Patience is a virtue I lack
