I got freaking 4 e-mails for my bioshock CE pre-order. I was going to take it and just say the hell with it to my dante's inferno credit, but as the rest of you found out, I don't actually have any extra credit. Still just one 10$ from my ME2 order. I wanted to get the 10 from DI and use it on an xbox points card or something, this is getting a little annoying.

No response so I'm pretty sure they are being bombarded by GC questions. I'd call, but there's still some time to sort it all out.

I got my Dante's Inferno credit on Wednesday. I guess I got lucky.

I got Bioshock 2 credit today, but still no DI credit.

I emailed and finally got my Bioshock 2 credit.

It would save them so much time if they just automated these credits...

I would think they could just have something that would auto email the codes/promos once delivery status is set to "Delivered" for the order.

They may have to program it but still in the long run it would save them a lot of time because I know they get a crap ton of emails about these promos/credits.

i am glad they are matching walmarts 20 for bfbc2

Gonna keep tabs on your results, if you guys get credit let me know. I have 2 emails saying I'm getting credit for CE but no credit... I think their system is botched.

So I have a random question. Can this gaming credit be used towards gaming accessories as well (specifically game guides), or is it only good for the order of other games? I bought Bioshock 2 for a birthday gift and will get the $10 credit from that. I was thinking I could apply that towards the bioshock 2 LE guide that I want which will compliment my Bioshock 2 CE for myself that I picked up from BB. $10 off the LE guide makes it like $12 which is a great price.

But I'm not sure if it can be applied to things like guides?

No it can't be applied to guides. Just video games. I wish it could though.

How can I check if the credit has been put on my account, and can I use multiple credits on one game purchase?

Thanks in advance.

Put a game in your cart and start the checkout process to see if you get the promotional credit (maybe there's an easier way?). Yes, these are stackable.

I wish there was a credit for Heavy Rain. Surprised it's #1 on the bestsellers list despite there not being a credit for it though.

Not too surprised. I think allot of people have waited for reviews since its such a different type of game. Anyhow, reviews are rolling in and they've been really, really, positive.

Not that I'm a big review person... but I do like to track numbers and watch trends.

Not true. I have been able to use the Gaming Credit for games, strategy guides, XBox Live Cards, Live Points, PSN Cards. The only thing it wont work for is systems.


Just add an item to your cart and see if the credit shows up.

I emailed Amazon about offering me a 10 GC for preordering MLB The Show 10 since 2k10 is getting one. I have yet to hear back.

So I bought bioshock 2 and bad company 2, is there a way I can track my game credits?

I got the BioShock 2 credit on Thursday and the email says it expires on 5/13/10. Last night I received TWO emails saying BioShock 2 credit was posted to my account and it expires 4/30/10.

I only got 1x $10 credit. But why the heck they tell me the two different expiration dates?! Which one is correct now?!

I just got two emails about the Bioshock 2 credit expiring on 4/30/10, even though I ended up deciding I didn't want the game and cancelling my preorder. It doesn't appear to have actually applied any credit to my account. Wonder what's going on?

I just received the email today with the $10 credit, looking at the wording it says it can be applied to any "Video games" item. Unfortunately the Bioshock 2 guide is listed under "books" so when I tried to add it to my cart and go through checkout (didn't actually pick one up yet) it didn't show up with any discount.

But yeah from the wording as I understand it, any item listed under the "video games" category (so including things like XBL points, gaming accessories, etc) should qualify for the discount.

I'm pretty sure I've used a vg credit on ms points before. I guess they count it as video games since it can be used to buy video games...
