Kind of peculiar that Best Buy has Diablo III for cheaper on BF. And I don't think it's something that's going to sell out. I've been meaning to get this game, but I hear so many arguments against getting it even at $30. The haters say not to get it at all while others say to wait until it...

So they still haven't posted their BF sales? Kind of surprised. It's only 2 days away. Does Fry's have good BF sales? I imagine it's going to be much like anyone else.

Yeah, I used to love the great deals you'd get at Fry's. It was pretty good for console games, but was insane for PC games ($5-$8). I'm such a dork (or typical consumer) that going to Fry's was a treat. Now it's more, "I can get all this stuff on Amazon for so much cheaper."

Oh good. I thought it was just a mix-up in that the $39.99 for Xbox Live required a game purchase and that was the reason why they were having trouble activating the card. Since they were having so much trouble and actually had a manager/supervisor on the phone with Microsoft(?) I thought they...

Was anybody able to purchase 12 months of Xbox Live for $39.99? I talked to a sales person and asked if we needed to purchase a game to get the discount and she said it was most likely an inventory error in that the card rings up for $39.99 regardless, but they're obligated to sell it for that...

Does anyone know how PC downloads from THQ work with retail/brick & mortar purchases of a game in a series? Say I have copy of Company of Heroes and Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts. How will a PC download copy of Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor work with those two games? Thinking about...

I signed up for this about 4 months ago, and although it takes a while for you to first get a copy, you eventually will. It was sort of a hassle to have them roll-over the 1 year free subscription to my current one. That took about a month before they got back to me with everything settled...

Last week I received the September and October issue of GFW. So this definitely works. Called Ziff-Davis and had them roll over one year to my current subscription. Couldn't be happier (didn't get another subscription to Black Enterprise Magazine on this one). I hope this is the case for...

Went to Circuit City in Santa Monica, but (as expected) they didn't have any copies of CoD3. I can't believe a few lucked out with gift cards!!!!:applause: Went home somewhat disappointed (I didn't really want CoD3 badly, another WWII FPS), printed out a 10% coupon at EB and went to my local...

Yeah, I expected this to be the norm and held out for these deals, but I haven't come across one since Bioshock. Which, actually, wasn't a very long time ago. I'm disappointed on the lack of a similar deal for Halo 3 and Orange Box. Although, I'd have to say, that Best Buy offered pretty...

Will Best Buy price match the $37 for Orange Box at Circuit City?

I'm wondering how long it will take before we get an issue. And from what I read, it shouldn't make a difference whether you're a current subscriber, they'll just add another year to your current subscription (?). I suspect it should take 4-6 weeks at least, since that's amount of time it can...

Maybe I'm paranoid, but I rushed linking to the page and filling out my name and address. From what I remember, these things are generally scams in one way or another. I now have a lifelong subscription to Black Enterprise Magazine even though I'm pretty sure I never subscribed.

Fry's never sold it slight discounted, did they? Wasn't expecting it so I just got the $10 gift card, and $5 1600 Xbox Live Marketplace from Best Buy. Strangely, still would have preferred a $10 off Halo 3 instead. I stocked up on the Marketplace cards from Circuit City two months ago and I...
