PJ value of $50 GC is $43
1 Game
B2G1 -> $60
B2GC -> $60
2 Games
B2G1 -> $120
B2GC -> $120, $77 after PJ
3 Games
B2G1 -> $120
B2GC -> $130 (using GC on second transaction)
4 Games
B2G1 -> $180
B2GC -> $190, $147 after PJ
5 Games
B2G1 -> $240
B2GC -> $200
6 Games
B2G1 -> $240
B2GC -> $260, $217 after PJ
Okay, assuming you want to buy ONLY exactly N games (strange I know for 2 or 5), and not counting tax (I live in a tax free state) you have these scenarios:
B2G1 is better in half the cases, B2GC is better in 1 case, and they are the same in 2 cases.
To answer your question, 5 games is a scenario where each game is <$40 as the true cost is $199.95.
Using PJ is quick and painless however, so following that route, the tables turn.
B2G1 is better in 1 case. B2GC is better in 4 cases, and they are the same in 1.
In this scenario, to answer your question, there are 4 scenarios where you pay less than $40 per game.
