Lol, no you did nothing wrong, I'm just saying that's awesome they did that. It might be the same in my case too. I got my RE6 under the "exchange/preorder" receipt so I thought I'd be good. Well, my payment points posted the other day but not the exta 1000 so perhaps it glitched me as well. Idk why though.. Only thing I can think of is that I went back Tuesday night to do a PM on Anthology o Fry's $74.99 price and used my original receipt of course. Maybe whatever they entered or scanned voided out my $20 credit.

I say this because THAT transaction posted as well. My original RE6 purchase AND the price-match money too.

I'll just call tomorrow morning and explain it to them and maybe they'll just credit the $20 on my account. I was under the impression the $20 cert would just randomly show up 30 days later, not that an extra 1000 points would be pending in the same transaction as my purchase.

EDIT: I just checked my RZ points and purchases and noticed when I did the PM, they RETURNED my Anthology and rerang it up at $69.99 for the PM. Clearly this voided out of $20 because they probably thought I returned the game, and the newly PMed game wasn't on a preorder transaction. Definitely calling CS tomorrow then. I'm more than sure they'll just credit my points on there.

IGN review for Dishonored is up 9.2, sounds amazing.

Just read the reviews for Dishonored and am trying to order it online for in store pick up (PS3) but it won't let me. Is this normal since it's coming out soon?

Yep glad I pre-ordered it, and I know some people don't trust IGN (I personally only trust certain people ie. Greg, Colin, Clements, and Anthony for the most part) so

Giantbomb gave it a 4 out of 5.

I guess so, I pre-ordered it earlier today and had to settle for having it shipped to me.

Sounds like something with this particular game, I preordered Madden and Borderlands 2 for in-store pickup the night before.

Monday is a holiday... so it's a bit late to be getting extra copies shipped out for tuesday pick-up.

Actually I did and based on that original post there wasn't any mention of the transaction being rung up wrong. Your follow up post explaining the void is a totally different story I got from reading the first.

For the record, not every eligible preorder will show a pending 1000 point offer. I've had this happen to me before. I waited out the 30 days every single time and not once have I had to call in to CS about manually adjusting anything as all of my preorders have posted fine without any hiccups. I've preordered nearly every major new release from BB since they started the 5/$100 promo last year. I've done in-store and .com preorders too. Both of my NBA 2k13 and RE6 preorders are doing the same. I see a pending 64 points but no 1000 pending points. I'm not worried about it. It'll post.

Nobody has the points pending it takes a week. Everybody chill the the off and stop whining.

Same thing happened for Madden and BL2 no points pending, but couple days later it showed up. No need to call CS and bug them. Have a little patience for once.

Now you two guys I like the way you think the terms of the promo say 35 days after pick-up why is it so hard to wait it out if you don't see the points pop up soon as the transaction post IDK if people are impatient or just don't mind the hassle of hitting CS up in hopes of free RZ certs.The same cycle of this happens every time one the titles from the list release

For this title it appears to be... I preordered it months ago and had to have it shipped to my house.

I read the review and I'm so stoked for this game, always great to see a new IP turn out awesome.

So true, I understand that people just want to make sure that they get their bonus points but its getting pretty ridiculous. If they rang up your pre-order wrong then that's a different story altogether and you should call to have them sort it out, but if everything is normal and you don't see your bonus points when your game first posts just wait it out. I don't understand what the big rush is...

The same thing happened to my BL2 order, no pending bonus points when the game initially posted and then bam, a few days later they magically appeared under the transaction. Most people who have their points manually added are just going to end up with double certs.

Just played the MOH Beta for about an hour. It is very similar to BF3 in gunplay and feel but definitely more COD in terms of action. The buddy system is actually pretty cool. I most likely won't buy because I do not need two war shooters right now but I think it is miles better than the 1st MOH MP. That thing was a pile of crap. I might pre-order and see how the reviews look.

Yeah, I'm not picking this game up because I still play BF3 a lot and I'm getting BO2. There's no way I'm going to have the time to invest in this. Good to hear its better then the previous one though.

God I really want to get Dishonored after seeing the videos and reviews. But I'm still not sure. I have til the end of the day to finally pre-order and be eligible to get the next $20 certificate.

Looks like the first sub-8 for Dishonored.

Guy tool 6 hours the 1st time but then says it actually gets better the more times you play it by taking different paths.

Comments are ripping him a new one though.

Thanks for the replies. Ended up ordering it over the phone because the pre order usb item wasn't adding in my cart, and it's sku wasn't bringing it up on my end.

So Nine missions for Dishonored. Seems small but I am still all in on this game. The other negative is the story is not as solid as the trailers would make it seem. In the end if the gameplay is top notch then I will want to play it over several times. Between this and Hitman I think I will have my stealth/action fill this holiday.

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm thinking that I should just wait til black Friday as last year, all of the games I preordered last year ended up being on sale on black Friday and was kicking myself in the head.

If I played and beat those games before they went on sale, then I wouldn't be too upset about it. If they were still in the shrink wrap though...
