Same here the store manager was so anal about overriding the price so it was $20 had to wait like 20 minutes. Manager only dropped the price after I said I was not going to purchase the Skylanders and Wii U I had in checkout as well. Guess the Wii U was not selling well at that location there was like 30 of them piled up in the middle of the store entrance. Have no interest in the system only purchased it for my nephew.

I had a copy of R3 too that I just traded into Best Buy for $6.40 with GCU to help pay for the collection (manager had to override too for the $20 off). Pretty much nothing but I had only paid $10 for it previously when they had the coupon for it(all with BB credit anyways).

That's so funny that you mentioned that; I had to use the same tactic with the Killzone Trilogy while waiting for the manager override on the Resistance Collection. Best Buy definitely doesn't want to, and literally cannot afford to, lose more business.

Sometimes you get people that work with you, and other times you get stubborn jackasses. I understand they're just doing their job or whatever, but come on... it's a screw up on BB's end, not the customer's end. The customer just wants their coupon honored.

BTW, kinda off-topic, but can I just say that BB price-matching Amazon and NewEgg is the best thing ever?

It's dissapointing, but not as bad as when I got the GoW collection a couple months back and found vouchers for GoW Origins on PSN instead of the game discs. I had to clean fridge, and those games + the videos that came with them still took almost all the memory I have left. I can't believe a couple of remasterd PSP games were that large. And to add insult to injury, it took 14 hours to download everything!

What really sucks though is that I had also bought a copy of that collection for my friend as his birthday gift, and he has no internet in his apartment (they have wireless, but only in the common area), thus has no way to download the games I paid for .

Compared to that disappointment, getting 3 separate game boxes isn't a big deal at all.

is the resistance collection 3 sealed games inside?

Pretty much, yes. It's just like the Resistance/Uncharted Dual pack but with Resistance 3 thrown in. The back says something about extra content for Resistance 2/3 (I'm assuming some DLC) but I haven't opened it yet to look at it. Anyone got any ideas on what, if any, DLC is included?

After researching the games I think I'll keep them. I am intrigued about the 60 player multiplayer on R2, can anyone tell me if that's still alive at all? Otherwise I doubt I'll barely even touch the multiplayer...

Picked up GoW Saga today. I also saw three copies of the Resistance Collection out on the floor, looks kinda ugly since it's a mash of two greatest hits and R3.

has anyone tried this at any of the best buys in south florida?

Feels like they went a step back with the Resistance set. One thing I loved about the previous sets is it was all in one case.

Def. going to pick up the GoW saga this week. I still have the Origins collection or whatever with the PSP titles on disc for the PS3, so I thankfully won't have to bother downloading the games from the PSN.

Went to two Best Buys and couldn't find God of War Saga. One of them had it in their inventory, but none on the shelves or in the warehouse. Boo Best Buy! You can't use this online can you?

All RZ offers are in-store only.

Ah dang. I guess I'll just wait for this to get cheap somewhere else down the line, or hope they discount the GOW Saga controller bundles to $40 at some point like the Killzone ones.

visited several stores and only found 1 copy of Resistance collection. it was the 3 case version. might pick it up if it's still there though I'll have to deal with terrible managers there...

got pretty lucky today at the Best Buy in Woodland, CA with purchasing the Skylander's Adventure Starter Kit for PS3. The store was running 50% off clearance games which included the first Skylander's Starter Kit. That stacked with the $25 off RZ coupon. So in the end i walked out with the starter set for $10.XX. I had to get a manger override for the two to stack together so of course YMMV. but i would recommend checking out if your store had the starter sets on clearance.

Anyone know what the sku number is for the Resistance Collection? Its not listed on the website. -_-

ya i cant find resistance either

Yes. The store in Boynton Beach price matched this for me without issue. They had them in the back not on the shelves. The manager called corporate first but I doubt he'd have to do that again.

I suppose its worthless getting the collection if you already have 1 and 3?

The trade in values for both are pitiful.

Thanks for the heads up. Much appreciated.

Unless you want the cardboard slipbox, there is no point. Especially since you can find 2 for dirt cheap.
