We will see. Will have it hooked up via ethernet cable to network. PS4 is also hardwired. Wonder if dropping resolution to 720p would make it a bit smoother. Will report back when I get it hooked up.

12 month Live sub for $39.99 on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...BWIP6/34a6-20/

From 2/1 to 2/8, purchase a standard 3DS XL at goHastings and get a $50 gift card. Not valid with purchase of a New 3DS XL.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Best Buy as well, including the 12+1 month cards

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Best Buy is charging tax on these. Are these not tax free? I could have sworn I never paid tax on them before like point cards.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I wonder if GCU will work on those.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Nope. :(

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Weird. Here in Canada, I never paid tax on PSN cards.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

FYI: if you want a 12+1 card, get the Titanfall one. I did some reading and the Master Chief one says 12+1 but it is actually a 12 month card with a DLC helmet for the game.

I ordered a Titanfall one since I had a BB reward certifcate to burn. Thanks for the post!

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Cool.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

No tax charged on my BB xbox live card order.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

They charged it on mine. Weird.

I wonder if I contact customer service if they would remove it?

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

NewEgg's running the $40 XBOX Live promotion too, but they're also throwing in a $5 Microsoft giftcard to sweeten the deal.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Thanks for posting! I almost jumped on the Best Buy deal but they were charging me tax as well so I held off. Now I got it a few dollars cheaper and a 5 dollar gift card.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I'm probably late to the party on this one, but GTA V PS4/XBO is $39.99 on Amazon.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

This really irritated me, as the subject line on the email they sent was 'Save $50 on a New 3DS XL', then the fine print said it wasn't good on the new one, only the standard.

For those questioning sales tax on XBL and other cards/subscriptions, it varies by state and depends on local law.

Good job, Nintendo naming people!

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I have a Radio Shack near me closing down (only a decade or two past its prime). Everything in store is on clearance. I spy some Live & PSN gaming cards hanging on one of the racks. Score!

Not so fast! Everything in the store EXCEPT the gaming cards are on clearance. :sad:

Radio Shack, even in shuttering the doors you fail miserably.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

To be fair, there's no need to discount gaming cards as they have no value until purchased - hence no need to actually Clearance them; they can just be destroyed instead.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I figured as much but still worth a shot.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I realize this is currently the same deal as Best Buy, but if you don't have a store by you for whatever reason Rite Aid currently has the Xbox Live 12-month Gold membership for $39.99 with in-store coupon.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

If you need some Xbox credit, you can buy a $25 physical card for $22.50 at Amazon, and a $50 card for $45. Not much, but you'll get a little free money out of the deal.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Seems like they're matching Best Buy, which is doing 10% off gaming cards. Seems like decent free money if you know you're going to buy stuff digitally.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I ordered one with No Rush shipping. Might as well save an extra buck if I can.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

The Best Buy gamers club is on sale for $30. It's supposed to be advertised next week, but some stores are selling it at that price now. Found this pic on cheapassgamer.com:
