Damn, gamestop.com. You're killing me. Am I in for a Legend of Zelda Wii and *insert-$50-pre-order-game-I don't think-I'll-be-able-to-find-a-better-deal-on-here" order? I'm not sure yet. I'll wait until after I know there isn't a B2G1 during the Game Days sale to decide. After all, it seems like the coupon will last for a while, knock-on-wood.

sweet! any possible glitches?

I had the same problem at first. I had my order ready to go then I went back to change a game and it went to $25 instead of 25%. So I cleared out my entire cart, logged out and closed the window- Restarted from scratch and it worked perfectly. Hope they don't cancel my order because I feel like I got away with murder...lol

... wait a second. That doesn't save me 25% of $120. That saves me 25% of each game. :/ So basically, optimize it the best you can, guys. It does seem to be a little buggy.

Are you seriously suggesting that saving 25% off the entire order is not the same as saving 25% of each game?

Or I am completely misunderstanding you.

Thanks OP, picked up Resonance of Fate and Bayonetta. Also threw in Grabbed by the Ghoulies for $2.99 to hit $100 as I've been meaning to try it and it made more sense then throwing in Madden 2003 or something for 99 cents. $81 shipped/with tax.

Math is fun (25% of $120= $30 or 25% of $60 = $15 x 2 =$30) =P

Finally placed an order. Agarest LE, Red Dead Redemption, and Trauma Team for $130 after tax. Not bad at all, no glitches experienced. Only strange thing is that my order status is listed as "verifying", which I haven't experienced before, so here's hoping no sudden unexplained cancellations or anything.

If all goes well, I'll see if I can't place a second order for the stuff I'm getting last week of June/1st week of July. Other M + P3P + something else.

He's saying that you can potentially receive 25% off anything as opposed to having to spend $100 to receive 25% off. I had $46.50 to spend in credit and I managed to get The Last Guardian for $48.xx. I was on the fence whether pre-ordering and saving $15 on that title will be better than any possible holiday deals considering the release date.

can the preorder be picked up in store?

I ordered DQ5 used, Persona 4 used, FFTA2, and Super Street Fighter 4 for about $80 total. Nice deal.

The pre-order didn't work for the discount when I ordered it to pick up in store, but it worked when I had it shipped.

that's not what he said at all

Hmmm, don't want keep the thread derailed, but he did indeed put a "face" that would imply he had an issue with it being 25% off each game rather than the order...when in fact they are the same thing.

Not from what I can tell. Tried it on other coupons and no go.

does anyone think Amazon will match this?

That's how I read it. He assumed it would take 25% off the total and not break down each game at 25%. I'm sure he realizes it's the same savings... I hope.

Tempted to go for Heavy Rain and Bayonetta and throw in something for a dollar but I think I can wait... damn you CAG

I got Lost Planet 2 and Just Cause 2 for $98.62. Not bad at all considering $68 was from freenerf tradeins. Thanx OP!

I don't know How it worked out for everyone else, but when buying used games with the 25off and the 10% Edge the discount, it came to exactly %32.5 off each game and not 35%.
