Now you know how I feel with teh Ultimate Edition of GoW3. It makes no sense.

I'll have to pre-order battlefield, but first I have a few questions. Will I get battlefield the day it comes out, or will that be the day it ships and I won't get it till Wednesday or Thursday? And... If I buy one of the xbox live arcade games from amazon do they just e-mail you a code?

You can get "release-date delivery" which means you get it on release day (March 2).

Just to add to that, release day delivery is free for prime members, otherwise it costs extra

Yes, good point. And for those that haven't seen this, there are free trials of prime available [see thread].

I am currently on a 3 month trial and love it! When the trial run out I think I am going to sign up for a year and split the cost with some people in my house (with prime you can have up to four additional accounts on the same prime membership as long as they ship to the same address).

still waiting for the Heavy Rain promo! C'mon Amazon don't fail me now!

I love these bonus credit offers. Got in on a pre-order for BC 2, extremely tempted to order FF13 too.

I HAVE IMPORTANT ADVICE

For those that preordered using the discover promo 10 off 50;

DO NOT EMAIL TO APPLY CREDIT TO THESE ORDERS

customer service will manually change the product price, say 59.99 to 49.99 and deduct your video game credit, thus making your discover promo ineligible, thus leaving you down $10.

I just called them to get my credit back.

I ordered bc2, and I redeemed my code and, do my demise... it was only $5. Any advice?

Damn, now I have to pay $3 more. *sighs*

Apparently if you email amazon about promo credit you get in a never ending loop about it being automatic lol... I don't think they actually read emails, perhaps they just copy paste something. That's been my experience anyway.

Same here. Yesterday I emailed about the Dante's Inferno credit and they replied back saying "The two promotional certificates for $10 was automatically added to your account, and you won't receive a claim code." Yeah, I specifically said there was $20 on my account from preordering Mag and Bioschock 2, but I was waiting on the credit from Dante's Inferno. Reading our emails would really help.

I also have not received my Dante's Inferno credit, though my Bioshock credit arrived quickly.

Sent another email and got them to add a $10 credit to my account. I'm not sure what the holdup is with the credits for Dante's Inferno.

Heavy Rain just dropped by a dollar I think. It's $54.96 now. Hopefully a credit comes soon

Not for me. I emailed about the Bioshock 2 credit last Wed. Day and a half later, no response, so I called and they gave me a $10 promotional credit right away. Now, this morning, I get an email response with another $10 credit. Not that I'm complaining, but what are they doing over there?

Yup, copy and paste e-mail I got. I assume they were talking about my mass effect 2 credit. I didn't bother e-mailing again.

Still no Dante here either, what is their problem with these.

This is probably the issue:

From a phone call I had with Amazon over my Dante's Inferno credit.

Dunno' if it was just a fluke and they're going to change it, but I decided to jump on BC2 because of the 20 dollar credit toward a future purchase. I was toying with the idea of the 2 day shipping with the Prime trial and was clicking through the shipping options. I selected release date delivery and it was only 5 dollars.

I went ahead and confirmed the order and it was only 65 dollars with a supposed delivery date of March 2nd. I thought release date delivery was outrageously expensive?

Just thought I'd mention it, if anyone else wants to give it a try.
