I don't think he meant it would supersede them, just that old Decker would add to the backlog because of a great deal, despite having more pressing titles to play.

So the purchase then would have nothing to do with getting around to them.
I'm just now getting to Darksiders I purchased with Bayonetta (also unplayed) and Borderlands at the last TRU B2G1 sale. And I added three more this from this year's sale...

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
Perhaps you're right. Though I still think I'm more likely to tackle my backlog if I have less new games to play. Trying to really limit my new game purchases this fall. Absolutely getting RB3, likely NFS Hot Pursuit and Gran Turismo 5. That might be it. Skipping the TRU sale this year.
edit: Oops, and Fable 3 CE. That one I'll play right away.

Lego Rock Band on sale for $15 (PS3 & 360) at Best Buy this week. Wii and DS versions still $20.

, $15 was my price point. Did one for in-store pickup. Curious question maybe somebody can answer...if I transfer these to Rock Band 2, does that count for my 2400 points/get 800 points free in October? I know the RB2->RB3 import doesn't, but wasn't sure about this one.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
They've said anything that's a game add-on counts except for the disc exports. And the 800 points won't show up in your account until around the end of November/beginning of December.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
First of all, you won't get the 800-point rebate until late November, per the terms.
Secondly, we don't know what counts and what doesn't. The thing just says "XBLA games and add-on content". That's ambiguous.
Additionally, I tweeted @XboxSupport about it and their response was just "Spend those points!
" so that sounds like it can be on ANYTHING, but who knows...

If you look at your purchase history on xbox.com everything is categorized. I guess someone could scroll through their history to check and see what LRB is labeled as to help Kedrix out....however I'm going to lunch.

...but Pinata is right, it doesn't mean much. Though I suppose you could raise a real big stink and you might get it anyway. I'll go ahead and act like it is part of the 2400 points. If I get close, I'll purchase a couple of Lips or Rock Band songs to get me over the hump and hope for the best. Otherwise like Corvin said if you spend the points on crap you really don't want, it isn't a discount. But song exports not counting is silly. Doing the song export is still a choice (true, most of us will want to do it) and we are still spending points. Money is money as far as I'm concerned.

What's the scoop on Vanquish?
@Kmart this week... Buy Vanquish, get $30 off select titles (Enslaved, Borderlands GOTY, Uncharted GOTY, and many others) AND get $20 off future game purchase.

I think this has been answered, but if you buy Vanquish at Kmart and get a $20 gaming coupon -- then you return Vanquish due to ass reviews, do you get to keep the gaming coupon or do you forfeit it? Seems like a total scam if you can keep it.
