Tony,

Awesome deal!
Two questions about paying.

1. I see there is not an option to choose to pay with JUST a credit card if you have any Amazon credit, unlike when purchasing pretty much anything else on Amazon. I know it's a somewhat interesting point, but still...

2. Also related, there is not an option to use any Amazon.com credit card reward points.

Are there any plans to change this in the future or is this some type of policy for downloadables?

You can cancel your preorder on Origin. Just go to the chat and talk to someone about it. I got my cancellation about a week ago

Done deal, pal.

Thanks for the deal.

Looks like we have a winner, very nice

So how does this Amazon digital download work, besides the obvious? What I mean is, can I use this digital download key for Origin or Steam?

Edit: Okay, so after some reading, I've answered my own question - Amazon sends key on date of release, input key for mandatory Origin install. Thanks. Best deal by far. Glad I waited.

Those prices are crazy, pre-ordered. Thanks Tony.

Please tell me Skyrim will be 30% off, ready to Buy now!

K people that want to get their Gears credit applied read this:

Talked to chat. No go. Gave me the Game Download number.

866-439-0310

Called them up and the guy said he could reissue a generic promo credit, but he wasnt sure it if would apply. Tried it real quick and it works!


Also, I told him if i couldnt apply it then I would just buy $20 of graphic novels or something and not give Amazon the extra money. Then Id go to Best Buy and buy the game for $60. I really wanted to support Amazon in this instances tho.

Very glad at the way Amazon handled this. Amazing deal and will gladly support Amazon and their future digital sales. $22 for BF3 and I dont have to travel anywhere! WHOOOO!!!

Depends how they spin it. If they go with "they are unfairly inflating their ranks", which would be a (potential) side effect (more people, more killing, more points) then they could easily get away with it. The people who care are the same people who "boycotted" Modern Warfare 2. And the people who actually play the game just see "Me want fairer stats!"

I doubt they'll ban for the higher playercount servers, but at the same time, I ain't gonna be hopping on those.

INCREDIBLE! Thanks so much for this deal!

What are the chances for a deal on Skyrim? ehh? ehh? Or Rage?

Can we pre-load the game before the midnight launch? I really want to play as soon as the clock strikes midnight.

sweet! just cancelled my newegg 48 dollar "deal" for this! thanks!!

nope, according to my Amazon game library it will be "Available on October 25, 2011 at 10:00 AM (US/Pacific)"

Yeah, it said that too but I was a bit confused since technically the "minute it comes out" would be midnight (in accordance w/ Origin.)

Oh well. I guess I'll stick w/ my Origin pre-order I got for $47 and a free copy of Dead Space 2.

Thanks!!

Same lol

Now if only we could get this kind of deal on Skyrim

so when this releases I will be charged only $42, correct?

Yup.. unless they come up with a better deal(you can only dream)
Just placed my order. Thanks...
Man... Nov is gonna be all play & no work

Any idea how big the BF3 file will be? Otherwise I'd rather wait 2-3 days for Newegg.
