[the_ENEMY_]

so I heard these black ops mad katz controllers are awful, taking forever to charge, not keeping a charge, some needed to keep it WIRED to work at all, and it also has a USB stick to work.

anyone else have a comment about it? I have 4 official controllers but their batteries are starting to show signs of their abuse.

 

[technicalstylez]

no need to cut up the slip cover, only 1 strip of glue holds it together and u can use a craft knife to cut along that strip and separate the glue without damaging the slip cover. this results in a 4 panel poster i guess- 3 panels of artwork and 1 panel of back of box text- i folded the back of the box art panel behind the artwork and was left with a panoramic tryptych of the artwork. its awesome. then u'll only need 1 frame

im pretty sure i have an extra manual, i'd say to paypal me 2 bucks for shipping but u don't use paypal s


[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']Damn you for giving me the idea to possibly end up buying ANOTHER CE within the next 1-2 days with my remaining credit.

Unfortunately I checked the slipcover for the Skyrim CE I bought more thoroughly when I got home and there's a bunch of creases on it. . Not only that but there's rips on the front cover of the damned manual in that shittastic cardboard/plastic hybrid DVD holder they consider a case.

Now I'm really regretting not keeping my mint case/artwork and manual from my vanilla edition for the CE. But I didn't wanna be a dick and screw over whoever buys my used copy next by trading it in disc only.

Oh well. Time to fire off an email or call Bethesda and see if they would be willing to send me at least a replacement manual. Chances are I'm gonna cut up the slipcover anyway and maybe try framing it in 2-4 smaller sized frames or something.[/QUOTE]

 

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

I'll just ask the one manager who doesn't give a rats' ass that I'm banned at GS if I can uhhh 'borrow' one from one of the copies in his store when I get my next eRewards $25 gc next month. I'll probably throw $5 down on a pre-order I'll never pick up to help his numbers AND renew my PUR card with most of the rest of the gc.

Either that or I could just grab the manual from the copy of Skyrim I bought pre-owned for my buddy from BB with one of those $10 off a $29.99 or higher pre-owned game coupons, since all he cares about is if the game plays. Then I just have to print up some custom artwork for the extra content Blu-Ray from the CE and plop that in one of the umpteen empty PS3 game cases I have.

i think you should grab the manual from the copy of skyrim you lend to your friend

 

[SonictheHedgehog1337]

This almost belongs in a bragging thread. Today I went to pick up my $2.99 copy of Fallout New Vegas (ps3). When I got home, I realized it is the Ultimate Edition with all of the DLC. yeah! It was "shipped to store" so I guess they just shipped the wrong game to the store. It looks like it is brand new. I think all of the DLC is on the disc rather than DLC code voucher.

 

[ashtonreeves]

when is the "arkham city" deal goes live?? how may hours?

 

[Saix_XIII]

[quote name='ashtonreeves']when is the "arkham city" deal goes live?? how may hours?[/QUOTE]

Approx. 1-2 hours.

 

[Vigilante]

[quote name='ashtonreeves']when is the "arkham city" deal goes live?? how may hours?[/QUOTE]Unless I'm mistaken, about 1:15am EST.

 

[ashtonreeves]

thanks guys do you guys know is this the standard or game of the year edition?

 

[Saix_XIII]

Read the thread more...

 

[fishface45]

[quote name='ashtonreeves']thanks guys do you guys know is this the standard or game of the year edition?[/QUOTE]
Standard

 

[Vigilante]

[quote name='ashtonreeves']thanks guys do you guys know is this the standard or game of the year edition?[/QUOTE]Common sense dictates that it'll be the standard edition.

The CAG hope is that it'll be the GotY edition.

 

[ashtonreeves]

when I saw it first it didn't say which one. I didn't went to the first page after that. now I see.

for me:
there is no use of buying this for $20 including tax if this standard. can buy on ebay for that price any day.

 

[nypickle]

vanilla versions of Batman Arkham City are Today Only Video Games page. That should squash any hope of GOTY being a part of it.

 

[coopscohen]

As expected, Batman: AC Vanilla is the DotD.

 

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

Arkham City(vanilla edition) is up on the DOTD page. So I get to keep my remaining $30 in BB credit for another possible DOTD later on.

 

[Lord Izanami]

Man, I have no idea what it is with the DOTD page. None of these DOTDs showed up for me on the page. When I searched the item in question, the price was right for the DOTD, but it just doesn't come up on the actual page.

 

[Namerson]

prices are up

 

[YBX87]

LOL, the tiv for batman ac is going to plummet again like the last time with the gamers coupon

 

[iduncurr]

Price is in effect right now (at least for me and I'm in California) and with free shipping

 

[HDShadow]

Snagged a 360 version. No in-store pick-up for me, sadly! I just bought Arkham Asylum, I'm totally up for playing these back to back.

 

[golfing7861]

I'm just waiting for tomorrow's deal.

 

[Enuf]

can't bother with AC @ $20 since it was already $10 multiple times using the @gamer coupon. Even if you weren't unlocked the $15 + tax is still cheaper than $20 +tax. They must still have a huge stock on the vanilla to clear out.

 

[MochaRaf]

[quote name='jiggyteddy']Bought my copy in store for ps3.

Tried ordering for store pickup, but they were listed as unavailable at all locations. However when I visited multiple stores today... They all had it in numerous quantity.

Also noticed lots of ORC for both systems. Must have restocked following the deal.[/QUOTE]

There seems to have been a few glitches with the system today... I had ordered a 360 copy for in-store pickup a few moments after the deal went live, yet when I woke up at 9 AM I had received an email stating that the item is not available at my selected location for in-store pickup and my order will be cancelled. I had to run a couple of errands in the morning and decided to stop by the store, to my surprise I found three copies for the 360 sitting on the shelf. I was happy to snatch a copy, but it was a bit frustrating that my order had been cancelled knowing there were actually copies on the shelf... Makes me wonder how many deals I have missed out on when my in-store pickup had been cancelled and I never gave it a second thought to visit the store to double check the shelves...

 

[strait edge follower]

I have flipped this game more than 10 times this year lmao. 20$ is still a solid price for a great game like this

 

[IAmTheCheapestGamer]

If you're having issues getting in store pickup for this game, try doing the stock locator and then clicking on add to cart for the store you wanna do pickup at. That's what I was gonna do this morning when it wouldn't allow me to just straight up add the game to my cart and then check off store pickup during checkout.

 

[Donut2922]

Weird that the PS3 doesn't offer in-store pickup.

Stock locator works fine though so you'll be able to see if you can nab a copy in-store tomorrow

[AgentSquishy]

What?! I though DoTD was online only. I didn't know I could just walked into BestBuy and buy it for the sale price...

All of those games I could have bought...

 

[Video-Gamer]

Bought for the PS3, thanks.
Not sure what some one else said earlier about buying it on ebay for $20, maybe used yeah - but brand new ones go for $30+, so this is still a deal.

[quote name='AgentSquishy']What?! I though DoTD was online only. I didn't know I could just walked into BestBuy and buy it for the sale price...

The website has to state "online only" while video game DOTD's have not been or even ever iirc.

Technically you were able to get it twice for $10 at BB by stacking an @Gamer $20 off coupon in conjunction with a $29.99 sale price. So the vanilla edition of this game HAS been cheaper at BB NEW.

 

[showtimefolks]

i was at gamestop and they had the last of batman AC limited edition for 60 i didn't know if it was a good price but i bought it

heard nothing but great things about limited edition

great deal, well worth $20.

 

[MIX_MASTER_ICE]

I know the Arkham games have both received great reviews, but IMO they are both overrated. Kinda bland gameplay wise to me and just didn't hold my interest. The detective mode is really cheezy and you shouldn't be able to use it all the time. Using it all the time in turn makes the graphics ugly.

That's fine if you think the game is overrated. But Batman is one of the greatest detectives ever and he shouldn't be able to use his talent whenever he wants?

That's like saying The Incredible Hulk games are too easy if you use his fists.

Even with Detective Mode on constantly it's still easy to miss things.

 

[mr_burnzz]

Batman is a dope game but I kinda agree with mix master ice with the detective mode. Game is pretty damn easy with it on (regarding asylum, haven't played city yet.). I'm playing mgs hd collection now and doing snake eater and in that game they have thermal goggles (mgs detective mode) but there's a battery so you can't abuse it. I like how I have to conserve the energy sometimes. Game is harder and feels more real.

 

[ijustw1n]

Great game, bad price.

 

[karyadi]

Anyone else think the 3D glasses made the gameplay FREAKING amazing. Going from GOTY AA(had the glasses) to AC, did NOT disappoint, even with detective mode.

 

[nikkai]

Mental note - don't buy on release day if I know it will be sitting on backlog long enough for it to drop to $20.... sigh.
