They really had their shit together today. I almost picked up 3 d dot heroes but decided on the kiddie Marvel Hero game for my son instead. using the two $15 coupons I got last week, I walked out of the store with L A Noir, Marvel Heroes and a $20 gaming coupon for $32.48 out of pocket.
So she tells me she's going to find a computer to look it up online for herself. After the website proved to her that I wasn't a liar, she was then convinced first that the $20 coupon was the free game. Then I was told that I needed to buy LA Noire and it would print 2 coupons. So eventually I was rung up 3 different times, two of which will get credited back to me at some point, but I still have 3 pending charges on my account instead of one, and I think I lost whatever Rewards points I had when the transaction was initially rung up. Online Kmart guy seems to want to make this right after hearing my story, but it was still frustrating as all hell. |

Walked in, none of the new games were out, no one staffing electronics. 5 minutes later, find someone. 15 minutes later, he returns with the game. Go to checkout, free game doesn't register. Mention the deal, manager acts like I'm trying to pull a fast one since it's not in the ad. Show them the Kmart blog on my phone... still dubious.

At Kmart, interact with the cashier as little as possible. NEVER try to explain the deal to them. 9 times out of 10, the cash register software will do all of the work and take care of whatever deals/coupons you are supposed to get. If not, just smile, walk away, and email Josh (the Kmart Gamer guy). He will take of any issues and make it right. It's not exactly ideal, but it will work.

Re: Whatever happened to LA Noire? -here's some info
If they're playing it, they're can't also be here to talk about it.

Re: Whatever happened to LA Noire? -here's some info
Some people work during the day too.
I picked up my pre-order at my non-midnight-equipped BB and they had none of the dlc cards. Went to the one Tulsa-area store that did (71st, dsa_shea) and went up to the BB.com pickup counter and they had a stack. I told them the story, showed I had picked it up already at the other store, and they gave me a card with no problem. |

Tonight/tomorrow you'll see a lot of impressions posts.

Re: Whatever happened to LA Noire? -here's some info
I won't be posting any impressions on the game until I've played it for a long while....same thing I did with Alan Wake.
I definitely do see why now a lot of people make such a big deal out of their purchase though to as well....whereas before I though you were all just cheap bastards :lol: |

Re: Whatever happened to LA Noire? -here's some info
I've been playing it for the last hr or so and it's pretty good so far. The fighting is fun and shooting setup is pretty easy to use as well. Love the look/feel of the game. I've only done 4 or 5 missions and already made Detective.

Re: Whatever happened to LA Noire? -here's some info
I got in on the Kmart deal no problem. Free game and $20 coupon, easy peasy. What I'm wondering though is if there's anything preventing me from buying another copy and getting the same deal (like if the rewards system will only let me do it once). Because I was considering buying another copy, flipping it at Amazon, and keeping the extra coupon and free game.

Yeah, 16 pages and almost nothing on the game. I get it, but it's almost like a new thread should start once people are actually discussing the game itself, not rumors of a release 5 months away or a KMart clerk. Just sayin'...

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
10 pages!
I've installed all three discs to my Xbox. Does that count as game talk? |
Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
Great they close my thread for no good reason so they force me to read useless fucking Kmart talk. Thanks dvdtalk your wisdom is great.

Re: LA Noire - The Thread.
Where's your commentary, Larry? I must've missed it. Was it just the "I like fighting and chasing" bit cuz, well, cool?

by the way I couldn't help but jump at the chance add a little more Kmart talk to this thread. :D |
