Not seeing that special offer in the listing, my cart, or email.

I posted it below in the Amazon VG deal thread:

I got that for buying a Criterion blu-ray. You buy one recently?

I think it's for any Blu-Ray or DVD, the top of my email says:

"Thank you for purchasing a DVD or Blu-ray disc from Amazon.com. This purchase entitles you to $5 in credit on select NBC content at the Amazon Video On Demand store. "

I pre-ordered Monsters, Inc. yesterday, but I technically haven't bought anything. That must be it though.

Thanks for the info on the real triggers, I'll use them as filler with my next amazon order.

ah, I ordered some real triggers and Eastbound and Down and got the nbc coupon. Guess I should have limited it to video game shit.....

Probably referencing the Amazon.uk pre-order page complete with user generated PS3 mockup that was up for a couple hours, but almost immediately taken down about a week ago.

Or looking at the random posting and sign up date, like someone is trying to earn their linking wings. I'll hold out hope that you are right. :)

got another email for the mp3s. I guess I qualified for both the dvd and vg promo.

If this posting is indeed true (I doubt it), the PS3 slim might be out in Sept.

That ad looks very fake. "full backwards compatibility" is a real telling sign that this is made up. Would be nice if true.

Re: Official PS3 Thread - March 09 Edition
 
If that ad is real, what I'm interested in are the "$9.99" titles like Uncharted and MGS4. I still need to get those two.

I don't get the big deal about a slim PS3 (or any slim console for that matter), but the lower price will be nice for those who are considering getting one.

^ Is that all the new update will address? I guess I can save myself time spent downloading another update.

Fandango 08-14-09 02:08 AM

Re: Official PS3 Thread - March 09 Edition
 
That's just an update for the website, not a firmware update.

RocShemp 08-16-09 11:15 PM

Re: Official PS3 Thread - March 09 Edition
 
^ Oh. Thanks for clearing that up.

did they release that update to the website? I can't check from work.

I got in on the MAG Beta. Did anyone else? I thought it was a small download (250+MB) but after you download that then there is a 2+GB download you have to do. My PS3 is in the middle of downloading it right now.

tlwizard 08-17-09 09:33 PM

Re: Official PS3 Thread - March 09 Edition
 
I just got in as well. I was really suprised that the download was 248mb. But I guess the 2gb download I have ahead of me makes sense. Thanks for the heads up on that.

Anyone want a beta invite for Supercar? You have to have a UK account. I only have one. Let me know here and I'll pm you the code.

How did you guys get the MAG beta? And how is it?
