    I managed to get 96 on the fruit game, which is my personal best. 20ARP. Whomp, whomp.

    20 ARP as well. Really banking on the 2000 and 3000 DRP rewards magically becoming available on 02/01. Might just pick up Space Marine 2, and bow out. Aside from hoarding points to replace the next controller that succumbs to drift, there's nothing else left to buy.

    You might want to check your control center just in case. My result said that I won 20ARP, but I actually ended up with 1000 DRP somehow.

    Maybe I'm just an idiot, but I'm still a bit confused about the 'Hurry! Your Dell Points expire soon!" email. Does this mean that all $15.31 I have left (all 'won' in December) will disappear on 01/15, or is this a form email that they sent to everyone? My 'points expiring soon' value is N/A...

    I only got 5ARP this week. Didn't realize that it was possible to get an amount that small. I probably could have done nothing and gotten a better prize. Also...has anyone gotten their auto-redeem? Thanks to the nerfs, I'm down to my last $35 in my Microsoft Account. Trying to decide between...

    Weird. Ever since Microsoft flipped over to the phone verification requirement, every redemption I attempt through google voice fails. I get a 'this order can't be completed' error message.

    This is probably an exercise in futility, but has anyone had success with Dell pricematching microsoft on digital Xbox games? I'd like to pick up "Person 5: Royal", which is currently 50% off during the spring sale. Also, which chat do you select? Sales?

    Just an FYI for the Dell Rewards folks: For some reason, we can do both 'Drag N' Drop' AND 'Step off' this morning. I was able to play 'Axe Master' a day early. After two weeks in a row of 20ARP, I followed the tips that I read earlier in the thread and hit the 'skull' tile as soon as I saw...

    The The axe-throwing game is quicker, at least. Last week, I got 1000 DRP for just clicking on the settings. This morning, I made it up to the second boss and received....20ARP (whomp, whomp). Took maybe 30 seconds, though.

    Damn! I did the same thing, and got 5ARP. Still have yet to actually PLAY the game. Edit: Just checked the control center, and the status of the activity said "Complete - 1000 Dell Reward Points". Jumped over to Dell, and there they were. I am so confused.

    You could always pick up the gold edition of Avatar for $109.99, RE4, Assassins Creed Mirage, etc. Not optimal, but all good games. I have....$30 in Dell Dollars (and 599 in Points). So screwed. Gods help me, but I was actually looking up reviews for the 'Bluey' game. :( Looks like I'm...

    It looks like Dell just completely DECIMATED their selection of Xbox digital products. Everything I wanted is still in my 'saved items', but I get error messages whenever I try to add them to my cart. Just tried it with the following games, and all were removed: Skyrim Anniversary Upgrade...

    The 2024 Gamestop Thread

    This right here is why today was my last visit to a Gamestop store. There is no consistency, and the overall experience sort of sucks. It's sad to see what they've devolved into. I get that they're a terrible company to work for (Managed one of their stores for about 4 years back in the day)...

    The 2024 Gamestop Thread

    I just called 3 other stores in Connecticut, and they all verified that trade-in credit can no longer be used to purchase digital currency / games / items. Apparently, there was a revision to the policy at some point last December. My last store visit was 11/29, and I was able to trade in a...

    He claimed that there was 'stick drift', but that was only after I asked him why the trade was only $11.36 as opposed to $22. Given the quality issues with Series X controllers, I'd be hard pressed to dispute a claim of analog problems. However, this is a relatively new controller (November...
