Thanks again, OP.

the only way to input game codes is through the marketplace blade on the 360. the only codes you can redeem online through the xbox.com website is for xbox live subscriptions.

Ok that's enough, I am about to give these folks a call or osmething, or would it be better to contact them via e-mail?

This worked like a charm for me...especially with the one click cancel once I got the code.
SlaughterX
04-26-2008, 01:33 PM
I called and after staying on the phone for a while informing the lady of her own store's promotions she tried to tell me that I would get the code when I got the game,w hich I know is not true... so now she's trying to say that Microsoft was supposed to e-mail me the code, then transferred me to Xbox customer support... I'm not even going to deal witht his shit, if I don't get it in another day or two I will just cancel it and buy the game somewhere else. Circuit City never has their shit together, that's why I quit that godawful job a couple of months ago.

How long have you guys been waiting? I still think most of you guys are just impatient.
You should give it at least a week. Or check your spam folders.

I got mine Friday, right around 4:30pm eastern. It took them eight days, so over a week, for that I cancelled my preorder.

Cheaper what? I think the point is to get the DLC for free...not because you actually want to buy ninja gaiden.
No one's actually planning on buying it through them.

No dude, I was being sarcastic.
I have no plans on buying it from them anyways.
Just got my confirmation email saying it's been canceled.

I'll give this a try and see if it still works or not.

I don't see why you just didn't keep waiting. They won't charge you until they actually ship out Ninja Gaiden.

Well they finally replied to my e-mail and gave me the code, after I cancelled the order... Ohh well, this is a game I want to have on day one anyway, and hopefully Blockbuster's discount at least covers the tax...

Looks like they have caught on to pre-order cancellations as they switched to you will get the code AFTER the game has shipped :(
My friend who pre-ordered it two days after me still hasn't received his codes, yet I got mine on Friday and he should have gotten his by now. You could always get the game, wait for the code, then take it back to the store for a full refund unopened right?

1 call and 2 emails and still nothing.
Now there are two possibilities to those of you who are still waiting:
1. They figured out that everyone is canceling the preorder to get the maps for free
or
2. They are really really slow and disorganized and you just have to be patient for your code.

I pre-ordered on Sunday, so I guess I could wait until next Sunday, but it looks like I just missed out on this deal.

I take it number 1 is the cause. I ordered mine on Monday got it friday while my friend ordered it on Wednesday and still hasn't gotten it as of last week.
It's all those people who CALLED that threw up the red flag. :(

Damn, i was hoping to get the maps by now since they are now required for double xp weekend playlists. Is anyone still getting codes or have they stopped sending them out?

Yeah they did that with me and I just hung up becasue I knew Microsoft wasn't going to do anything. If sending the e-mail didn't work I don't know what else to suggest besides canceling your order.

Does anyone know if this applies to in-store pre-orders too? I was told by two employees it does, I gave them my email address, and now I'm on their mailing list...
Anyway, I pre-ordered on 4/18 and still haven't received a code. >.<
I just called the store and the guy was puzzled as to why it wasn't sent out a week after. He told me I should call the main CS number, which is closed on Sundays. Blah. Here we go with the customer service runaround.

There is a huge standee in the store for this deal, and it says at the bottom that you have to go online to preorder to do this deal. Hell, they didn't even have a way at this local CC to preorder it, because I wanted to do it and get the codes right there and then (and just grab NG 2 from there the day it came in) but they had no codes or way to preorder it.
I figure I'll go ahead and do this on the website, and just cancel... if CC hasn't started going for people yet who did this, they probably never will, or just don't care.

I think because of the amount of people who got the code and then immediately canceled (I was NOT one of them) that they are just going to email the code when the game ships in June. I seriously doubt many people, if any, will get this code now any time before June.
I wonder though if I will get a second code by mistake? If I do, I'll donate it to CAG to give away on either the CAGCast or CAGForeplay as I don't know any IRL friends (instead of XBox friends) who would want the Halo 3 maps. Plus it would just be right seeing I wouldn't have gotten them if it wasn't for CAG.

hmm so are they still sending out the codes like a week after u order it? or do we have to wait for the email when it ships in June? (i'm guessing its when it ships since thats what the site says so o well ill wait it out)

It should be once the game ships now, although some previous buyers seem to be getting them. I wonder if they'll screw up and give me a second code since I still have my pre-order?

Hardee har har... I ordered on 6/2/08 to get the free code and planned on just returning the game to a brick and mortar. Today they sent me the code and sent me a notification that the pre-order shipment would be delayed by one day. Bonus! So I canceled it online. Thanks for the free maps! CC sucks it long and CC sucks it hard.
