Hey Guys don't know if this was posted already but I didn't see it. Amazon is offering a $20 promotional credit for pre ordering. It's also on the product page under Special Offers. Don't how long it'll last.

Dead Space 3
Crysis 3·
SimCity
Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel

Crysis 3 also has that promo.

Sweet thanks OP

Wow, good to see Amazon back to getting some deals on physical games + preorders.

Oh snap amazon may be getting back into the $20 pre-order credit business. I remember when it was pretty much a standard offer with all new major releases. Pretty good for those who like amazon but I'm sticking with my BB pre-order.

Same, 60 days to PM is hard to resist.

thank god. between amazon and newegg killing the preorder train in the past few months, i was worried i would never buy another new game again because i refuse to pay 2/3 of a hundred bill for a new game. now its close to half

time to renew my prime

Don't see it anywhere. Does it only pop up at checkout?

It's under special deals/offers

As much as i like this, AAA games rarely drop more than $20 in the first 2 months. At least with this amazon credit, the drop is guaranteed, so i dont have to worry about PM.

Don't get too excited; Amazon isn't doing this on their own they are just Price Matching Walmart.

Is Amazon still stupid about preorders where only one version will get the credit? Meaning if I preorder both the 360 and PS3 version of DS3 on the same account I'll only get one $20 credit?

+ + Price for all three: $179.97 Some of these items ship sooner than the others. Show details Buy the selected items together This item: Army of TWO The Devil's Cartel by Electronic Arts PlayStation 3 $59.99 Dead Space 3 by Electronic Arts PlayStation 3 $59.99 Crysis 3 by Electronic Arts PlayStation 3 $59.99

Army of Two and Sim City are also part of the $20 promo for amazon. So yeah, you're right they are just PMing Walmart.

^ But at least they are Price Matching early and not waiting until the Thursday after release (ala Battlefield 3) essentially screwing over those that preordered early.

You know once Walmart takes down their deal, Amazon will take theirs down within 2 hours.

Gotta get that item back to regular status asap!!

Thanks op. Was on the fence about getting this one, but $20 credit is hard to ignore.

In! Thanks OP.

Whoever 1-starred this thread is crazy.

"This offer will be extended to all existing pre-orders."

Sweet! I just pre-ordered a PS3 copy this past weekend.

Fantastic. In for Dead Space, considering SimCity.

Man, remember when almost every major game had a $20 credit? So nice to get things on release day as opposed to waiting a week or two for the $40 sale.
