Having low expectations help, but after tolerating the load times, it's actually pretty fun to throw a spear at someone's face or chopping off some limbs. It's not refined at all, but for a budget title, it's bearable. And the avatar unlocks are kinda cool.

Is shipping not free anymore? My local store doesn't have it in stock, but its avalible for shipping.. its charing me like 3 bucks though. Hell im not even sure if i can use the coupon online either way

*edit* can you use the coupon for in store pickups at all? Trying to do a ship to store but i dont see how to enter it. All i see is reward certificates option and theres no regular code on the back. The UPC doesn't work. Id just go in tommorow to do it but people are saying the price will go up by then =( Hopefully someone answers tonight

You can't use the coupons online as of yet. Otherwise I'd probably try doing this myself and get one for in store pickup before they change the price to $25. Shipping is only free anymore if you have $25+ or you're a Reward Zone Silver member.

Hmm reward zone silver is what they call the game unlocked isn't it? or is that something else. Well that sucks =( So basically all I can do is go in tomorow and have them set up a store ship option and wind up having to pay $5? Is it for sure theyre fixing it tommorow? Free was good but even at 5 bucks i heard this game was god awful.

Bottom line is that it seems theres absolutely no way to pick it up in store with the coupon is there? If i just pay for it now and go in, using the coupon when i pick it up: I dont think i can use the coupon then, can I? Grrr.. well maybe i can try it anyway. I dont think you get charged until you pick it up

No you can't do it. I tried before at different stores and asked them to apply the coupon to my in-store pickup and was unsuccessful every time (their system doesn't allow it)

Reward Zone Silver is different from the Gamer Unlocked.

Also, I've read that you can ask the associate to cancel your in-store pick up order then rebuy it in a normal transaction but if the price rises (the price on bb.com is still showing $20 for me) they won't honor the old price since you've canceled.

Still 19.99 lolwtf. I guess it's going to be infinitely more difficult to get an override because managers were told not to honor this today? ...

could still be changed before stores open. But we shall see. Interesting nonetheless.

Was able to get this to work yesterday at the BB in Marlborough MA. Took a manager override and about 5-10minutes, but pretty worth it. I brought it to my buddies after class and there were 4 of us taking turns playing vs. in the second Deadliest warrior game. The game isnt great quality, but its hard not to have a great time laughing and watching the characters fall apart when barely touched by the opponent. One thing this game has taught me is that its apparently much easier to kick someone's limbs off than previously thought.

I believe I will be walking into Best Buy at 10 this morning. I don't really see how they can refuse me.

Just check the site & its still $19.99 & still available at my location. Am going to be there 10 - 5 minutes before they open. Hopefully I won't have a problem early in morning.

They said the price is going back to $24.99 today, so when the coupon rings up it's going to be $5.00. Best Buy only honored the deal for yesterday, and it's if they read the news center to know to honor it.

well they have an hour and a half to change the price. Otherwise it should still ring up as 19.99

Just because the price is $19.99 online doesn't mean they didn't change the price in store.

Yes, but I believe they match their online prices should there be a difference.

Long time lurker, first time poster,

Did this yesterday in Garner, NC. I bought Rocksmith for $40 so I think they wanted to be nice to me. Took less than 5 minutes for the manager override.

Game is kind of booty though. But hey, for free....well, its still crap.

It was definitely fun reading through this thread for other peoples experiences!

stopped by a bb close to my work after work and they had 0. decided to stop by one closer to my house (which i mostly go to) and they had 2 left.

grabbed one took it to register and the clerk said he couldn't do it, because he would practically be giving the game away. i said sure you could - there is nothing in the coupon that exempts it from happening.

he called over a manager and made it happen. pretty cool just to get a free $20 game... even if it is horrible. doubt it if people will be able to get the same deal today but... good luck!

I always go to the Garner one and I NEVER can get a manager to override anything!

You can either price match or use the coupon, not both on the same purchase.

still wouldn't hurt to try. For the most part the prices reflected on their site are same in store unless they are outlet items.
