I'm not sure, since the game wasn't on my radar when it originally released. 2K did release a GOTY edition a year later after its original debut.

It was 39.99 MSRP at release too...The game was under most people's radar.

Yeah but if you are a silver member it is almost a no brainer unless you want to pay less than $20. A 60 day PM window on these games almost guarantees a $20 RZ cert AND a cheaper game. If you are waiting for sub $30 that just may not happen for 6-8 months on everything but AC. And we do not even know if that is going to happen since the game has so much hype behind it. I know many of you are not silver but I plan on using it to he fullest this fall. I plan on getting Far Cry 3, Borderlands 2, Dishonored, ACIII, BLOPSII, ad HALO 4. Since it is all trade credit I plan to spend max about $30 game + tax. For some I would not be surprised to get them for $20. Yeah waiting will always see a price drop but some of these I plan on playing and trading also making them even cheaper to get.

Question for the BB experts here:

I don't have Unlocked, but I preordered Halo 4 today. If I get Unlocked before release, will I be able to make sure my account get the $20 cert?

If you are not a Gamers Club Unlocked member at time of pre-order, you must join in-store prior to game pickup or shipment. If you join on day of in-store pickup, enrollment must be on the same transaction as game pickup and member number must be provided to be eligible. If you join after game pickup or shipment, you will not be eligible to receive an award for that title.

Just make sure your unlocked before you pick-up the game. The quoted section is pulled from the terms and condition of the offer.

Please provide Reward Zone member number at time of pre-order and pickup.

I also want to add that you must be a reward zone member at least when you placed the pre-order though. You need to have the reward zone member number tied to your pre-order deposit receipt. It is so the system can track that you pre-ordered, and when you upgrade to unlocked it will still be tied to the same reward zone membership number.

Thanks. I am a RZ member and that is on my receipt too so it shouldnt be an issue.

Almost no games drop as fast as the ass creed games and that includes the borderlands games lol

LOL, maybe assassins creed is a bad comparison, but just in games in general, and comparing it to borderlands #1

How about Farcry 3? Being an Ubisoft game, can we expect it to drop in price (almost) as quickly as ACIII? How fast did Farcry 2 drop?

So if we pre-ordered Assassin's Creed III weeks ago with the Steelbook case offer does this still apply, or do we need to cancel and redo?

Also I just pre-ordered Halo 4 in-store and took home a kick-ass 11x17 Litograph. It's also offered online but you can get it now instead of waiting for the game to release.

That's my conundrum with the possible USA freedom edition. If ubi has learned they will tone down production numbers, if not you could have a 150 CE selling for $50 in a few months.

Honestly I think they do it on purpose, they probably sell BETTER that way, in waves.

I'm definately in for Black Ops 2. I don't know about the others tho. AC and Farcry 3 will drop fast enough. Maybe borderlands 2... but they liked their goty edition, so i might just wait, but idk!
This deal is alot better than the 5/100 deal and fingers crossed it would all work out last year.

Remember the Borderlands 2 pre-order will come with the Mechromancer character when she releases for free. Sounded like Randy Pitchford said it would cost like $10-15 for her otherwise since adding a new character is not an easy process. The DLC for Borderlands was really good (other than Mad Moxxi) and I did not feel ripped off from it. Plus it is on sale all the time so if you are patient you can get it cheap.

In reality, I do not mind purchasing many of these day 1 because I want them to continue making great games. It also does not hurt to pre-order and then cancel if reviews are bad or you lose interest. You cannot get this offer the following week so I am just pre-ordering everything I think I want and will decide that week.

Crap, I misplaced my AC3 pre-order receipt.
But if it's listed on my RWZ account should I still be okay?

LOL Much Appreciated. As much of a pain as all the EA games can be, I find myself buying their titles on a consistent basis.

I might be wrong, but I think there's an option to print out a copy of the receipt from when you placed the preorder.

I get $20 and am weird. I buy one copy of every eligible title. I get $220 in reward zone certs.

What about buying 1 copy of AC3 for 360 and 1 AC3 for ps3?

Is it $20 per console version or per title?
