Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Apparently Target will also be doing the Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale next week, right after the Best Buy sale ends. This might be a better deal for those who want to pick up AC3 and/or WWE13 or those who only want one game at 33% off since that's how it'll ring up on their receipt. I think I might just do that to get Forza Horizons since that's the only game I want that I don't have preordered.

Also remember to buy things after November 1st, as that is when the new price match system at Target begins. That will give you price protection through Christmas, including Black Friday sales. Last year Forza 4 dropped to $27 on Black Friday, so that protection is a good idea.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

From CAG:

Saw an advertisement in Wal-Mart's Game Center promo magazine. Said: "Text TRYITOUT to 727272" for a free game rental at Redbox. Assassin's Creed III and Just Dance 4 was pictured in the ad.

Awesome thread was able to get 5 codes and yes OP should be updated with all available codes.

Edit: 6

RENT, TRYITOUT, TRYGAMES, JUSTDANCE, SCREEN, TRYREDBOX
Check the original thread at CAG for latest update, in case some of those don't work.

Thanks, all 6 worked for me

I've never tried redbox before, so this might be a dumb question. So if I stop by after work and pick up a game, is it just a 24 hour rental? Or just get it back before midnight the next night to avoid getting charged?

Sweet, thanks! All 6 worked for me as well.

Matty - I'm fairly sure you have to get it back before 9pm the next day. At least that is how it works for movie rentals.

It is by 9 PM. You get the most bang for your buck if you rent early morning and return the next evening.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I'm going to try this out with MOH Warfighter. Seems like the perfect game to run through the campaign in a day or two.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

I just bought Ghost Trick for the DS for $7.71 at Sam's Club. If you go and it isn't priced right yet, have them scan it. It apparently dropped today and this is for the remaining stock of the game. I got the last one at my local store.

I've been meaning to play this for a while now. I also bought 999 the other day for $15 so I have two older games for the DS now to play through on my 3DS.

999 was something else. Good and all, I just never would have expected that on the DS.

Really wish they'd port it to mobile.

Yeah, the sequel just came out and its even better. But 999 is honestly in my top 5 on the DS. Great game.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Anyone try to use the latest Newegg code for $12 off a pre-order? I used it on Halo 4 and then went back (after clearing my cache) to use it on NFS: Most Wanted and a few others... damn website won't take the code again? The coupon specifically says you can use it more than once... so what gives?

Code is: EMCJNHE52 for anyone that wants to use it.

I clipped the DMC coupon and added the PS3 version to my cart, but it's not applying the discount

It doesn't expire until 7PM. You clip it automatically when you click the link. If you try to clip it again, it will say expired, but if you look at your clipped coupons, it should be there. It just doesn't work

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

The show says the DMC collection is out of stock, so I think these are just like special lightning deals. Time and stock constraints.

There is no link to clip it (anymore). I click on the link provided and it has the message "We're sorry, this coupon has expired." I assume they're out of stock so thats it like pinata said.

When I clicked Pinata's link, it told me I had clipped it. Then I added it to my cart, and it didn't show. Then I tried to clip it again, and that's when it said it was expired.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Not my links! Clearly it's a limited supply and there's no reason to not just buy it if you're intending to. Next week we'll know it's starting at 5pm/2pm E/P and we'll be the first in line.
