F.A.Q's

What is Amazon Warehouse Deals?
Warehouse Deals is part of amazon that has open box, generally like new items.

Is the Amazon Warehouse Deals return policy the same as Amazon's return policy?
Yes, All purchases are eligible for Amazon customer service and 30 day return policy.

What condition are products from Warehouse Deals generally in?
Usually, games are re-shrinked wrap and almost in perfect condition. Any game i have personally ever bought has in like new condition. However, some people have reported that games were scratched with stickers on the insert. Consoles are also usually reported in like new or new condition with box damage. Rarely, a console may be missing a key component such as a power brick.

I'm using the games sort by console link, and the games will not sort by price properly. What is wrong?
You aren't doing anything wrong, the sort by price feature on Amazon is broken

I'm waiting for the 360 slim, or ps3 to pop up.. What time do they usually appear?
They can show up any time, the best way to find it is have the item tabbed on your browser, and download an auto refresh app and frequently check it... Sometimes they will not pop up on amazon warehouse deals storefront, you will need to check the "used" section of the item

Why did all the prices of games randomly jump up?
Games on warehouse deals generally go on a cycle. They will get extremely low, great deals.. Then they will jump back up and restart the cycle of falling in price again.

I have a gaming credit and/or an Amazon gift card. Can both of these be applied to Warehouse Deals orders?
Gift cards can be applied to orders made on warehouse deals, however video game credit is only good for items shipped and sold by "amazon.com", warehouse deals does not count as this.

Don't forget about online pass... Especially with the emphasis on autolog, could get annoying.

I thought the demo was boring as hell. I don't know, probably just me. After playing Blur, I had zero interest in this or Split/Second.

I abhor racing games, I originally intended to get NFS:HP from Gamfly for flipping, but I loved it so much I couldn't. Bottom-line; if you like fantastic games with great polish, it's awesome. :applause:
 
[quote name='ceve2001']Anyone here buy or have the MJ Kinect game? I bought it when I saw it on the warehouse deal, and mine has some Chinese characters instead of English letters. For instance the game rating isn't E, it's some Chinese character. I'm kinda worried Amazon just sold me a fake game. It works fine on my 360, but I don't want it if it's fake.[/QUOTE]
That's definitely a bootleg. I'd contact Amazon and get some compensation.

It's not a fake, because if it was a fake it wouldn't play in your 360 unless you have a modded 360.

the Michael Jackson Kinect game is region free, meaning you can buy the foreign copy and it will work on an American 360. So that's all it is, but you can definitely contact Amazon and I'm sure they will understand you don't want a foreign copy.

I'm not sure about 360, but know people who bought bootleg DS games and they'vd worked fine, so I don't know if this is entirely true.

I agree Most wanted all time favorite. Carbon was supposed to be MW2 but it never match up to Most wanted, if they only made Most wanted 2

Check out the Amazon reviews...only 3 1/2 stars, at least for the PS3 version. Lots of people didn't think it was that great. And...of course...it's not.

Oh, yeah, and just so I don't miss out on being a douche, too.... :applause:

For comparison sake, and for anyone who's looking into the game, it's received an 88 (360) and 89 (ps3) average on Metacritic.

The single player is solid, didn't play much MP, but I preferred Blur, personally. Not a good opinion though as I've never really been a fan of NFS, however this one was at least enjoyable for me.

Solid buy at

To be fair, the highest amount of voter gave 5 stars, and many of the lower ones (as with anything on Amazon or other sites) are from people that had reasons like online pass, shipping, or "I wish it was something else so don't buy it" type reviews. So the game itself wasn't even in a factor in many of those votes.

Either way, some people really liked it, some hated it, so it does belong in the 3.5-4 out of 5 star category, which is just above average.

I'm sorry, I forgot that your ever-lasting omniscientness could determine how good a game is FROM A DEMO. And clearly stating my opinion was incredibly douche-worthy so I apologize. *sarcasm*

It's an import version that's likely a region free version if it works on a NA console. I had a copy of Demon's Souls that had Chinese/Japanese writing on the packaging and on the manual/inserts but also had a full English 'cheat sheet' for the controls inside the case.

So that's likely what happened here, is that someone at Amazon(or their trade partner NorAm rather) accepted an imported version of the game. Would it be hard for the CAG who bought it to resell/trade it? If someone buying it noticed the foreign language markings on it, then yes, but to me an import version is as good as a domestic version so long as it works and plays 100%.
 
Same feeling here. I want it, but there are too many November releases that I just wouldn't get around to it for a while. Still, that is a very tempting price.

it also looks like Rage, Gears 3, and Dead Island are available in the same price area from AWD. But with summer releases already at half their retail price, there's no telling how low they'll get for black friday.
 
Hot Pursuit is totally the best NFS ever. However, I think the online pass added a lot of value. I loved comparing my autolog with friends.

Two caveats about that, though: the autolog is less useful now that everyone has stopped playing single player, and it should have been free in the first place.

Still though, it's close to being my GotY. Can't praise it enough.

I think I have some extra NFS online codes both for 360 and PS3. I will post them once I get home tonight... assuming I don't forget.
 
[quote name='WV Matsui']Damn I really wish that NFS HP would show up for PS3 at that price![/QUOTE]
no way, it was really bad on PS3, loading times were just awful. Duke Nukem type of awful.

Really?

Hmm I may grab this for my 360 then!
 
[quote name='Play3rtwo']no way, it was really bad on PS3, loading times were just awful. Duke Nukem type of awful.[/QUOTE]

I played NFS:HP for 25+ hours on the PS3 and didn't have a single problem with it. Loading times were fine. I would guess that your problem would be with your internet connection settings having problems with autolog.
 
You guys aren't missing too much by not getting the NFS HP online pass. The online is pretty much dead the last time I checked. It was fantastic when the game first came out though - a great online experience!

The single player is pretty fun. Getting gold times on all the missions is a good challenge and adds replayability. Also the leaderboards are very developed in the single player, almost the focus of the game even.

TLDR - worth it for SP alone
 
[quote name='WV Matsui']Really?

totally, i've played on both platforms and the 360 one ran a ton better with very lower load times. the PS3 hindered my enjoyment of it.
 
[quote name='kouleefoh']$38.99 for like new White Knight Chronicles 2? Worth it? I have 1st game, haven't even played it yet lol[/QUOTE]

I think Best Buy had it on sale for 39.99 new recently(I could be wrong). Keep in mind that there's an online pass for that game. I'd say wait for a price drop or sale and try to sell your copy of the 1st game because WKC2 comes with both the first and second game.

It was 40 at Best Buy awhile ago. If you can wait until black friday, I suspect there will be a better deal.

Oh I did not know that. I will definitely trade it in then because it doesn't have manual. =/

Granted I haven't played in a couple months, but I found out that the reason I was having no luck finding matches was because my client wasn't updated to the newest version, and the game will never tell you that. Once I updated I started finding races again.
 
[quote name='Velo214']nfs hp was awesome. i played on ps3 a ton and never had any problems. loading times?[/QUOTE]

yup, feel the same way. Easy platinum too. Maybe it is quicker loading on the xbox, but it was never a noticeable issue on the ps3.
 
My Alan Wake Limited Set came near mint. Amazing deal for 20 blades :beer:

Why does amazon put those huge white stickers on the back on the cases and then shrink wrap the games? I am happy about the condition but why do that?
 
Xenogears got here today. About as close to perfect as possible. Discs were flawless. About a half inch crack on the back of the case, in about the middle of the back. I'm stoked.
 
xenogears was awesome when i was 18. lol deep existential shia in there. i loved krelian and ramsus and miang and fei and all them.

just picked up through awd dead rising 2 otr for 25.xx
and sims 3 pets for 20. seems like ok deals for stuff just released.
 
[quote name='Beatofficer']Is Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes worth $10? I've seen a lot of mixed reviews, just curious what other CAGs think.[/QUOTE]

Now beforehand let me warn you that i'm a fan of the hack and slash/beat em up or whatever you want to call it since dynasty warriors 2... and yes i have bought every game since then.

As a huge fan of Devil Kings (it's a small club) i pre order the heck out of Samurai Heroes when it was announce, and i almost couldn't have been happier.

Now i said almost because:

1) the game still had a small cast of playable character (you couldn't even play with Kasuga for pete's sake) compared to DW (it was better than DW:6 though.)
2) It was waaay easier than Devil kings, but entertaining nevertheless.
3) Would've to see more levels to play in or at least make them bigger.

Those aside, i love the game and i would gladly pay full price for the game again. I will say though that the game is not for everyone, i would only recommend if you're a fans of the whole hack and slash/beat em up or whatever you want to call genre.

P.S: Yeah, windy speech :p
 
i heard bout 4 months or so ago that sengoku was also going to have a (free) dlc update? something about co op last partyl? idk but check it out
new characters and stages and playable npcs?

http://www.destructoid.com/sengoku-basara-3-utage-release-date-announced-209372.phtml

ok so that says it releases in 2 days, nov 10th in japan, so hopefully localized here...?

edit - oh god i forgot this is crapcom or cashcom or something to bash capcom. they are releasing it as a whole new game in japan... ugh
hopefully we get it for dlc but idk, i was hoping free, but knowing capcom it will be $15 or they will chop it up and sell it to us in pieces.
sorry guys!
