I think we will only be getting the bi-weekly coupons we get for free now.
They already said they will discontinue @gamer along with the coupons with no mention of them doing anything with them.
They also said they were completely changing the rules for trade ins & due to the large vocal negative feedback they backtracked. Same thing is going to happen with them taking away RZ pts for financing purchases there`s so many people complaining it`s drawing alot of negative attention so it`ll get changed too.
I don`t ever see the mag(physical or digital) coming back since it`s not a profit maker, the high level of theft/exploits during good months & the large # of unsold mags. However, if they can profit and/or increase the # of $120 subs from having more coupons I see no reason why they wouldn`t.
Off the top of my head I think of 5 coupons that really temp a person to drop $120 for GCU
1- 1 Free game up to $60 with purchase of GCU sub
2- A $60(3DS/PSV) $75(PS3/X360) $100(PS4/XB1/Wii-U)giftcard w/GCU sub
3- 40% off 1 used game or 1 used game transaction
4- Additional 40% trade in bonus on 1 game or 1 game trade in transaction
5- Buy 2 get 1 on new games or buy 2 get 2 on used games
A combination of "bait" deals like these would get people to pay $120
Actually, if BB upgraded their welcome coupons correctly that would make big difference too. With the increased cost we should be getting more welcome coupon to begin with. 1 set of 12 coupons every 12 months & either 2 B-day coupons or 2 B-day coupon packs would suffice.
Link the coupons to the myBB & GCU accounts & they`re good.
