[MikeHoncho]

How exactly do I "tarde" something in? Also this deal is crap

[menikmati]

Sweet, getting ready to tarde GS.

[deneem4]

well then let it be crap and keep ya comments to your self

[NinjaPenguin777]

Pictures dont work....

[deneem4]

yea madden is excluded

[jmillion]

hate this deal. to trade in two games, and still pay $20.

[deneem4]

but some games are only 15 used maybe less

[panasonic]

can i trade in oblivion on ps3? can it be used on preorders?

[deneem4]

can i trade in oblivion on ps3? can it be used on preorders?

u can trade in the game of the year edition and no preorders it can only be used on the games posted wit the cover

[Codemaster]

They aren't even there. Just empty space (nothing in the quoted posting).

[panasonic]

Can you make a list real quick your pictures do not show up. So normal oblivion is not accepted? What about Budoaki Tenkachi 3 on wii?

[$hady]

um? update your update? :P

[deneem4]

It Just took me an hour and a half for this stuff yall better make the most out of this deal

[autche]

This deal isn't God awful; you just have to be selective with what you trade in. For example, if you can find a used Blast Works and Resident Evil IV, Wii Edition at a gamestop you could get them for $11.70 each (25% coupon + edge), so for a $60 game (from their selected list) you could get it for $43.39 or get a $50 game for $33.39 - a savings of about 28% or 33% respectively. Unsure if you could stack (though I imagine not) a 10% off new games (slick flyer from selected markets) to take off another $6 or $5 respectively to make the savings even more. Also, if you got in on the $9.99 blast works from BB and the "clearanced" Ghost Squad from Target you could really make out.

Thanks OP, if I can get the 10% off coupon to stack with this I am definitely in - if not I may still give it a go.

[VipFREAK]

Oh, this might be a pretty cool deal! Thanks OP!

[argyle]

My problem this time isn't what to trade in, it's what I'd want to get. The only game on that list that remotely interests me is Ninja Gaiden 2, and I don't want it THAT bad.

How often do they update the list of games this is good for? Once a month?

[awp]

Yeah, I wish they'd update the list to include upcoming games like SW: Force Unleashed and Midnight Club:LA.

[Over easy]

I don't think Hot Shot Golfs Golf: Out of Bounds come out on the 360. Maybe it's for the PS3 list?

[gotrice415510]

so the list of wii, xbox360, and ps3 games are the select titles that can be traded in?

[deneem4]

yes

Any chance of getting a game from the list, sitting on it for < 30 days, returning it UNOPENED and getting the game you want? I remember one of the deals last year was trade in (virtually) any 2 wii games and you get a new wii game (49.99 and under). I traded in for a game, immediately told them I didn't want it; had them credit me back for the amount of the game and placed a preorder for eternal sonata - zero problems. Probably YMMV on that one, but just a thought.

Probably possible - though with the potential for lots of hassle.

It's funny you should mention that trade 2 Wii games get a new one free promo because that kind of puts this one to shame . I made good use of that and got all kinds of preorders. I then switched most of those to other things. I finally just used up the last one recently so I got some good mileage out of it.

No kidding. That was a great deal. It was made even better when Micro Center had games for $9.99 during that time. Nice.

[panasonic]

Hmm i have two games to trade in now to debate ps3 or 360 version of soul calibur. Which has less lag?

[publiicprivates]

get the ps3 one for better controls, game informer says it "has the edge"

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

This is a kind of meh deal compared with flipping the 25% off Wii games to Blockbuster/Gamerush and getting a game I might actually WANT for the cost of the flipped games in most cases.

But thanks for posting it nonetheless, deneem4.

[Link927]

Was bored and looked at the list at GS after work today, I noticed RE4 and thought to myself, with the current coupon and its recent price drop, you might actually make something from this. Of course, its a bit of work, and theres nothing on the list that I dont have already or really want.

I was a weakling, just getting my CAG sea legs when that promo started out. I only used that twice - at the same time - with 4 sealed copies of "meet the robinsons" from the CC clearance ($12.96 ea). Total spent was like $53. I traded in 2 copies for Mario Party 8 - which I sold to a friend at work for face value ($50) - this essentially covered the cost of my "meet the robinsons" fiasco. I used the other 2 and traded in for Trauma Center, gave it right back to them and said put it on Eternal Sonata ($50 credit)- they were perplexed, but complied none the less. This put me about $13 out of pocket for Eternal Sonata - however I got a free faceplate with purchase that I turned around and sold for $20+ on ebay. So when said and done I got Eternal Sonata for free and made around $7 to boot(probably just above breaking even when you figure in tax/ebay fees). All that is left is to reminisce of those type of deals because I don't think we'll be seeing them anymore; at least not anytime in the near future.

I picked up blast works and RE4 today at gamestop for $23.38 in store credit (coupon + edge); I'll fess up the $19.99 (possibly $13.99 if I can get them to stack the 10% off new game coupon - *select markets only*) to get Revolution for $37.36 in store credit. I'll probably sit on the game until Mercenaries 2 comes out then take back Revolution (unopened) to get Mercenaries 2. If they won't let me stack the 10% with the promo, I'll just use the 10% off when I pick up Mercs 2 netting the same outcome ($37.36). Hell, I may do this multiple times to pick up a few upcoming titles for the Wii too - just depends how brave I am (not looking to trade in more than 1 of any title on the list).
