Doesn't really require any specific time. If two or more people from the club are on at the same time, you can play a game. Doesn't hurt to join so if you want to jump in an EASHL game, you're already set up. We're not playing each other, just random other clubs playing at the same time. No set requirements. No schedule.

Just send a request to join and I'll approve.

This should just be appended to all posts from members contemplating a purchase.

I agree, and they should change their avatar to a pic of said backlog.

"I have Madden 96 still shrink wrapped, but $39.99 for Madden 11 was just too good to pass on. Thanks OP!!!1111one"

Fable 3 is offering $20 GC for both the normal edition and collector's edition. Is that bonus separate for each item? Meaning, if I order a copy of the normal edition and the collector's edition, will I get two $20 credits?

I know Walmart does this, but wondering if anyone had experience with Amazon doing this.

Guess I missed this reply. Yeah, you can search for our DVDTalk club and then just send a request to join the team.

Unless I'm missing something (and I just checked), only the normal edition is listed as having the discount. CE doesn't have it. Pretty standard practice, and the reason I haven't bought any CEs from Amazon.

You're missing something.

In answer to the previous question, I think both $20 credits would apply. If for some reason they didn't you could call them after the items ship and they would almost certainly issue you the other one.

Huh...so they buried it further down on the page rather than in the "Bonus Offer" box near the top, where they usually list the, um, bonus offers. That's curious, but good to know.

At first Amazon only had the $20 apply to the Standard edition of Fable 3, after Walmart started offering the E-$20 for both, then Amazon caved in to give it to both. Probably in the rush of matching, they probably put it in at a weird place. I still haven't pre-ordered mine, I'm not sure what's keeping me. (I pre-ordered Fable II LE) I'll probably decide this week.

I was tempted by World at War as a lightning deal for 18.99, but I noticed the non-Platinum Hits version is 19.99. So not a great deal.

The same two titles over and over all day? Great idea, Amazon.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Greatest Hits for PlayStation 3 - 100% claimed
Call of Duty: World at War Platinum Hits for Xbox 360 - 94% claimed
Call of Duty: World at War for Nintendo Wii - 100% claimed

I guess it was :shrug:

And clearing out old stock before Black Ops was probably smart of them :p

The first deal/"different kind of shooter" is Cabela's North American Adventures 2011 for $26.99. No thanks.

Seriously?? WTF?? My guess is less than 10% of those get sold. I would have been all over Borderlands at a decent price though.

Damn I was waaaaay off one #1 but got #2 50% so far
