this is the reply from the best buy rep on their site, so I couldn't PM AC3 because I got the steelbook (already called twice and got the same response) that they considered an "promotional item", so I guess I can't pm Dishonored either because of the lamp?

That all seems like a bunch of I do not know what to do so I will make up some type of excuse answer. I would call CS again. The steelbook and the lamp do not keep you from price matching anything.

Wow i can't believe Fry's already has Halo on sale haha will definitely be price matching day 1.

My points are still pending for Dishonored... would be nice if these drop before Halo releases.

Have there been any decent PM opportunities for Dishonored yet? I don't recall seeing anything. Would love to get a PM on that before Halo drops as well.


***Also, i still don't have pending points from AC3... picked it up 10-28 (oops was looking at my rewards site, that's when i switched it over from 360 to ps3, i picked it up on 10-30 of course)

There is a very long answer, but the short one is play it for yourself. You might find you agree with the turbonerds. Just think of your favorite trilogy - game, movie, novel, whatever - and replace the entire dramatic climax and ending with a bloated LOTR era Peter Jackson taking a dump for the last 45 minutes, end mission, third of book. It kinda soils your view, no matter how great the preceding portions were.

Back on topic. I think it's time to cancel my Halo 4 pre-order on Amazon and go to Best Buy tonight. There shouldn't be a problem pre-ordering this close to release should there? A $20 cert sounds way better than a $10 Instant Video credit.

If you're worried, just order it online. But no, there won't be any problem.

You can now put down any amount you want up to the full amount (minimum of $5) but can only do that once (can't put down $5 today, $20 later, etc.). Also, it's a different kind of transaction so the whole return/exchange thing will be a thing of the past. This only applies to titles releasing in 2013 going forward, so all the current titles will still be under the old system.

This just in. Dead Island Riptide just added to the promo.

What do you think guys, should we start up a new thread with just info on the 2013 titles?

It's too bad Best Buy doesn't appear to be gettng the "Special Edition" that Amazon and Gamestop have listed.

This isn't 100% confirmed, but I recall asking someone at Best Buy about the same thing during the spring this year for some game, can't remember, and they said they don't price match preorder prices. Not 100% positive though.

I didn't see a Fry's ad for next week's deals yet. Where did you see this?

You can't do pick up in store yet... hopefully it is 46-49 in store when the game releases.

That could easily just last until release and then go back up. Best to wait till late tonight/early tomorrow to find out if it's in the ad before getting peoples hopes up

Ah .... thank you. Now I know why I missed it. Skimmed for Fido's Frys thread specifically.

Still no AC3 DLC code. What was the pre-order DLC? If it's nothing major I'll just call them up in the next day or two and start playing now.

I just went through the bestbuy.com forum. It seems like an easy process. Just awaiting for a response. Read the instructions in the forum.

A weapon and a mission I believe.

Don't worry about the dlc yet. You have a couple of hours before you reac the point where the weapons are usable/accessible

I am looking for some advice. I recently Purchase Assassin's Creed online last minute at 7:55pm on 10/29/12. It still stated that it was a pre-order. Although I didn't get the dlc when I picked up my game on 10/30/12, I am not much concern of it as much as I am about the $20 gift cert for GCU. Also, because I am afraid I may not receive the $20 gift cert, and I have not price matched. My game is still sealed and have not opened. Looking for some advice as to how to approach my situation. Thank you, just 1-3 people, don't want to cloud the forum.

Cool thanks.

The wizards at my local BBY asked for my RZ number at the time of my AC3 pre-order, but apparently it never made it to my account. My AC3 purchase just showed on my account, but without the "Victory Can Be Unlocked" 1,000 bonus points. I emailed BBY with my Customer PIN (found on the bottom of the receipt) and according to their response, BBY will manually add the $20 RZ voucher when the purchase changes from pending.

I'm posting this so that others won't get too worried if the sales rep somehow messed up the pre-order process. Seems a bit too common for my taste, but apparently a quick e-mail to the people at Reward Zone will straighten it out if you're having problems.
