I haven't been across the border in years, but I recall there being one near the mall thats just a little north of Windsor off the 404 or 402 or whatever the close highway is.
Can't you just be satisfied with 1 (basically) free new AAA game?

Looks like that Futureshop deal for the trade-ins caused mass chaos.

Mass chaos in Canada? What did someone knock over a garbage can in frustration?

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Went to BB around 11:30 this morning. Lineup inside store was 100+ people and they were out of everything except COD Ghosts (had 200+ copies left for each platform). Process was painfully slow and I waited about 90 min in line. No riots though, but people coming in the store were wondering what the hell was going on. Forget about Sunday and Monday, by now they are out of everything. My nephew owes me 2 hours of my life.

I think Amazon has a B2G1 right now on select PS4 games.
Edit to add: Nevermind, I'm blind.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

I picked up picked up 6 games today at Target during their B2G1 sale. This is one of the dual code packages for COD Ghosts. Their system was not giving me credit as part of the sale. So they had to manually enter a coupon code giving me one of the my other games free. So YMMV. They only had 1 copy left in this package at my store.

FYI, I already had preordered two games through Amazon and got an email from them today, with a code redeemable for a free game this week. Pretty cool of them.

This was the only one I saw. The B2G1 is for all games PC, DS, PS3/PS4, Xbox, etc. It scanned correctly but I think since this was a digital code it wasn't supposed to be part of the sale. But they let me use it anyway. This was not a card but one of those thin game cases.

I didn't see that game at the Target I went to.. I may visit another one and exchange if they do. I wanted to upgrade the 360 Ghosts to Xbox One... but wanted to take advantage of the Target sale. It looks like to get the $9.99 deal for upgrading you have to buy from GameStop, Microsoft Store, Best Buy, or Amazon. I called Best Buy to see if they'd match the Target sale. But the manager stated they had a corporate wide email saying not to match Target's sale. Not sure why as I had gotten Best Buy to match a sale like that in the past when Toys R Us ran it. I guess they didn't want the sale to allow people to "double dip in a sense because they are doing the upgrade 360 to One/PS3 to PS4 deal.

Point cards and game reservations are not included in the sale. Otherwise I would have gotten some of the XB1 game cards.

Did you open this yet? I'm curious whats in side. Is it simply 2 codes? One you enter in on the 360 to download the game and then another code to enter in on the XB1 to download the game? Or is it a single code that you enter on the 360 to download the game and when you connect up your XB1, it sees the license for Ghosts and you can download it there?

There was a card inside with a single code. It said you wouldn't need to re-enter it on the XB1. There was a second code for the extra freefall map.

Still not sure why the multi-player and campaign were 2 separate downloads. 7.5gb for the first and 2gb for the second.

I dunno, B2G1 is pretty fucking sweet for new console games, never thought I'd see that.
