I couldn't pass the first damn level but my brother has finished it three times and I have friends that have Platinumed it. I know I'm not a terrible gamer but this game can sure make you feel like it at times.

I ended up caving in and buying NSMB & Demon Souls. $69.98 for both didn't seem too bad and I can use the credits to grab Mario Galaxy 2 for $29.99. Then with that credit I can finally preorder Halo Reach for $39.99. Then they can all sit in my unplayed pile

This applies to all previous orders as well, right? I always just assume so, but I guess I've never checked to make sure.

The learning curve is very steep (and even after that, no matter how much you level you have to be extremely careful). I wish they included that strategy guide with every game, and not just with the LE, because it was very helpful, and the game doesn't really start until after you beat the first boss.

I wasn't sure, so I asked: they said it would apply to my preorder.

It should, they changed it when they got in a GC fight with Wal-Mart over Modern Warfare 2

Yes, any new pre-order promotions always apply to all existing preorders as well.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Just pre-ordered Red Ded Redemption. At check out I got an extra $10 taken off. What was that for? Just said promotion applied, but I didnt see any $10 off promotion.

Never mind, forgot that I had a $10 credit for ordering Bioshock 2.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

What was the last video game you purchased from Amazon? Odds are you had a credit you just forgot about.

Easy to forget, It's not like we've been talking about it for the last 30 posts or anything.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Did you forget if you justified the Bioshock 2 purchase with the credit and are now double-dipping on it?

Heavy Rain has also dropped $3 today, and is currently priced at $46.99 plus a $10 credit that you may choose to mentally discount now, on a future purchase, or both.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Bioshock 2 has been removed from the deal and bumped back up in price for some reason. Most of the other games I checked were still at lower prices and offering the $10 gift card, but the one game I was considering is gone so I'm skipping this deal.

I sure hope so as I cancelled my first pre-order of Red Dead so that I could apply a ten dollar credit from Super Street Fighter IV. So now I should get the 20 dollar gift card plus the golden gun although the gift card wasn't offered at the moment I placed the second pre-order?

I just pre-ordered Tiger Woods '11 from amazon and noticed there is a $20 credit on that one.

Does it comes with a mistress bonus?

No, just a pack of condoms.

A 12 pack because anything less wouldn't be enough for Tiger. That's with the one per person policy.

Nah, it's an 18-pack. One for each hole.

Including Wii Sports Resort is a little disingenuous considering it'll be included in the new bundle coming out very soon.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Amazon question: If I cancel my pre-order for Halo Reach, which had a 25$ promotional discount applied from the Comic Book snafu, will the promotion go back into my account or is that a pain to deal with? (wanting to cancel, use it on Red Dead Redemption, and then order Halo later with the code from that)
