I hope I bought Dead Island GOTY less than a month ago. I'd love to get a price adjustment using the $10 off coupon!

You guys should just do the 2 for 40 on Kingdom Hearts 3DS right now at Toys R Us. You can trade the extra copy into Best Buy for $30.

Will I regret picking these up when they hit rock bottom on BF? Hopefully, I can get them cheap enough that any future price difference will be marginal.

i would even purchase it if $25, just to support the developers in some way, lol

CoD blows. This coupons are worthless unless you consider the hdpvr 2 for 145 but I'm sticking to hdpvr 1 cause it has no copyright protection

Why can't every month be a winner? Do you think it is out of line for someone to expect that?

Hey, maybe it is. Maybe gaming covers such a wide variety of genres and systems it would be impossible to please everyone, but I think they could do better. More coupons that work for all titles. Coupons like buy one get one half off type stuff. A five buck voucher for any preorder. Coupons off more digital content.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that they make every month an objectively good month compared to months they have had before. If it was a free service, there would maybe be less reasoning to say anything, but it isn't. It isn't going to affect my shopping at BBY, and how they want to handle people facing the choice of renewal for their service is none of my concern, but I am of course entitled to my 2 cents on the matter. Maybe someone from BBY is reading this thread, after all.

My oldest wants this game for Xmas and that's a good idea. I think I will partake. Thanks! I'll put the $30 credit, combined with $20 RZ certificate into $50 amazon credit.

Hmm. No sign of KHDD at toysrus.com. Hopefully it's in store.

My xbox live runs out on the first and 15 off is better than full price.

Yeah you should be able to find it in store, hopefully. I believe the day lasts through the week. I picked up mine on sunday and it worked easy enough.

Yes it is unreasonable. You know why? Cause everyone is different. What appealed to you last month might not appeal to someone who is psyched about this month.

You expect to be a focus group of one. That's not possible. Also CAG isn't the entire game buying universe.

I've never played a Call of Duty game, but it can't hurt to try.
Is there a certain one I should play first before jumping into these two?

when its come first person shooter games, it does not matter, unless you are planning to play it for the single player only. most ppl who buy call of duty games, play it for the multiplayer online experience.

If that second set of coupons is true.....looks like I have to re-up my subscription now.

Mine lapsed a few days ago and I was just going to sit it out for a few but I'd like that 3ds KH coupon & the $10 off used as there is a game I'd pick up.

So....how do I handle re-upping to get everything?

If you're playing for the story, play COD4->MW2->MW3. Black Ops has its own story

Just go to the gaming area and sign up exactly like you did the first time. There isnt a special way to do it for resubscribing that I know of yet.

my rewardzone acct states my gcu membership expired on 3/20/2013, is that information accurate ?

Will I receive a new welcome packet and everything?

I never actually signed up in store.....BB sent me of the first few issues of the magazine and I mailed in the card to subscribe.

Around a year later I got a letter in the mail informing me I was going to receive an additional year subscription and become GCU for free.

I haven't payed for the magazine since that initial payment by mail.

So just go to the Gamer Desk and sign up....will I be given a copy of the new mag on the spot? What about welcome packet (I never got one the first time)? And do I have to pay/sign up for GCU?

Any help is appreciated as I haven't had to bother with this in quite a while.

EDIT:

I just got on the @Gamer customer service website and put in my account # info to log in...it says my subscription doesn't expire until November 2012 which means I have two months left. But it's not showing me as a GCU member?

How do I go about fixing that issue?

Do you think that I think everyone who buys games in the world is a CAG? I hope not.

So you do not think they can offer more "blanket" deals that cover wide swaths of stock? Maybe some coupons for used games, more for digital titles, a percentage off accesories... and that is me just thinking off the top of my head. I think they can. I guess we will have to agree to disagree. I hope I'm not offending you by suggesting they could have better deals, I don't want you to take my thoughts on the deals personally.

Edit: I don't think I should have to say this, but I don't mean a 100 percent satisfaction rate among 100 percent of subscribers. I mean working towards that and trying their best to get as close to that each month a they can. A 100 percent satisfaction rate among 75 percent of subscribers would be better to me than a 50 percent satisfaction rate among 100 percent of subscribers, and I think this is something they can reasonably acheive by keeping an ear to the ground with sites like ours and gamers in general through things like surveys of purchase trend charts, or whatever else.

As far as mentioning CAG, I was talking about the deals in relation to CAG and how the average user here would percieve a CoD sale, when I assume most people here probably already own the games they want to own. I do think however that even outside of this site the majority of people who want a CoD title have probably already gotten it, and a lot of those within the first 3 months whatever title was out. In regards to my last paragraph, it is my personal opinion that instead of trying to appeal to a comparably small amount of people (those who don't have the CoD titles listed, whose hurdle was waiting for the price to go down, who are also GCU members), they could easily cover a more broad spectrum to please more people.

The guys back in the gaming department "should" know everything to do.

Yeah just go to the gaming desk and they'll scan a brochure for the GCU membership. Its $14.99 that you'll need to pay right then. You also get a current issue of the mag when you sign up. I dont know if anyone that has renewed has recieved another welcome packet yet since we've just been starting the first of the renewals but I think I remember reading on here that we do get another welcome packet.

Black ops has some ties to world at war but other than that I agree with your recommendation

I was going to attempt to type some logical comment to get people to stop complaining but hell, whiners will whine. Like the other guy said, my wallet is cheering for this bad month. haha

Yeah. Didn't, even, think about that.

Well, there's SOMETHING in that batch, at least, that would interest me. Angry Birds Trilogy.

Possibly, a $10 F1, lol.
