Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

If anyone else has that Bioshock 2 coupon and wouldn't mind mailing it to me, I would gladly paypal you a buck or two to cover postage.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

No need to paypal anything. I'll send you one with tomorrow's outgoing mail, John. PM me your address. I'm glad someone will get some use out of one of these coupons as I clearly can't.

No problem. If you could use ODST, Tiger Woods 11 or (shudder) Just Dance, let me know tonight and I can include them as well.

No thanks, I can't say I'd have any use for those ones.

I could use the ODST coupon, if you're still offering, and if it's still available.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

If anybody else needs further confirmation, I was able to use my $20 Reward Zone coupon for Final Fantasy XIII with absolutely no problems at Best Buy today to get it for $20. Got it for the 360. Quick note though, there weren't very many copies, only 2-3 more at best. So if you want it, get it while it's hot!

I think it hasn't been mentioned, Target has a buy 2 games or accessories for $49.99 or more each and receive a $20 GC.

I bought two 4000 points Xbox Live cards. Total $99.98, and received a $20 GC. You can use the GC in any product in the store, in case that's important for you.

Thanks MWB! Nabbed Prince of Persia for $15.



As predicted the computer read it as a $5 coupon. Manager checked the shelf tag ($29.99) and they had a shelf tag promoting $15 off with Gamer coupon. He had no problem overriding the transaction and just took $10 off the initial price and let the coupon do it's $5 thing.

After the feedback here, I'm taking Blur back. -1 + 1 = the pile has not moved. Plus I knocked out Bioshock 2 over the weekend and working on Galaxy 2 and Alan Wake now. I'm working on it.

Weird. I got mine about a month ago. Wonder why it's taking so long for them to send 'em around.

Why did this have to come out before the Kinect and the Move?

Thanks for the coupon. It worked for me on Kinect but not Move.

$90 still seems too pricey. I might still take a chance on it though.

Think this would work on point cards?

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

It worked online until they sold out. YMMV in stores of course, the coupon itself will likely work, but employees might not be willing to scan them.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

AFAIK, point cards are no longer classified as "accessories" in their computer system once MS switched to the gift card/activation route. I've never had any luck in stores at any rate.

Looks like SD has been abusing the Kinect deal so it's doubtful any of them go through. Why can't people just order one and let it ride?

Hrmm, yeah I guess that makes sense with the points card...sucks but makes sense. I printed out the coupon and I'll take a look around there. My wife keeps asking for a 2nd wireless controller for the 360 (we have a second controller but its wired). We shall see.

Hmm, I think I'll try to get a second Wii remote with M+ with this.

No on points makes me a sad.

You can still try on points, it never hurts to try. I would just keep your expectations in check.
