If I had to guess these seem to be publisher subsidized since some publishers never are a part of it. Like Sony published exclusives never seem to be a part of it but MS published ones often are (Forza, RotR, and Halo just recently even). There's another big publisher I'm blanking on that doesn't seem to wait to play ball either.

I don't think anything's ever taken off until it's released and you can get the cert for pre-ordering any time up to when it's considered released in the system.

other big one is Nintendo lol idk how you blanked on that one
 
dreamer131313 said:
not every game usually just what Best Buy and the publisher agree on.

Nintendo exclusives are never part of it and usually either are Sony exclusives. It usually multi platform games or Xbox exclusives

And yes the promo is good until the game releases and the button no longer says "pre-order now"

Ha, so what? Three people each giving unique and helpful info that would have taken a decent amount of time to fruitlessly search for elsewhere thanks to CAG. Thanks for the quick responses guys, very much appreciated! Unfortunately I'm mainly interested in PS4 exclusives and Nintendo >.< go figure lol.

As part of the B2G1 deal a couple games still list as coming with $10 credit. Is this correct? Clicking on the link leads to the preorder page and these games aren't listed. So do I get the bonus or not of if I buy something like Halo 5?

Note that this only appears when looking at the full site, not the mobile version.

no you won't get it. That was only if you pre order they just slow to remove it from the titles and won't adjust it even if you do buy it since it won't be a pre order

R they never going to add street fighter v? The list is so empty now you'd think they would finally add it

I know and this is one of my first times looking at it and all I can think is, "..This is it? I know the holiday games are out already but come on there's gotta me more to this 'perk' right?" Slim pickings xD

There's nothing major coming out for months and everything that is are just delays from this year so it's the carry overs that are left on the list. It will repopulate when the cycle starts up again.

I know I read your previous post, but still even delays have pre-orders so you'd hope there'd be more to choose from here =/

Well looking at the next three months the bigger releases aren't anything that would get this sort of promotion.

January:

Hyrule Warriors Legends, Mario & Luigi, Final Fantasy Explorers are all 3DS

LEGO Avengers is a LEGO game

February:

Gravity Rush is Sony published

Fire Emblem is Nintendo

Street Fighter is single platform and Capcom who doesn't seem to participate in this

Far Cry Primal and PvZ GW2 are reasonable candidates but they don't seem like they're going to get AAA level push

March:

Heavy Rain is a remake

Zelda TP HD is Nintendo

Uncharted and MLB are Sony

The Division has it and was pushed back from this year

After that the only big title that's got a locked down release date is Dark Souls 3 and Bamco doesn't seem to do this either. This is the dead time of the year for new releases and publishers don't spend a lot of their budget pushing these titles because they're either locks to perform or stuff they're taking a chance on and seeing if anything floats to the top on it's own.

I still think we will see Far Cry added. Also doesn't Mirror's Edge come out in Feb? That could be added also. If I remember correctly, I think a few titles were added at the beginning of this year?

If anything gets added I think it's FC or GW2 that have the best chance. Multi-platform, established franchises, publishers that participate.

 
This might be the end of the $10 promo once the last remaining games get released.

 Everyone keeps saying more games will be added, but doesn't look good

not even lol it literally only have 2 games on the list cause it that time of the year. Did it end last year? No yet it only had two games on it last year this time year to and the same the year before that. 75% of the list isn't added until round e3 every year and the rest are added between January and February. Just everyone need to stop thinking just cause it isn't long that it over when the list has looked this way year after year at this same exact time of the year
Ask eldritch, Hubert, Darby vigilante or any the regulars and they will probably tell each of the one saying it the end the same thing that this is the normal yearly routine with the list
 
Darby27 said:
Normally I would, but the regular points aren't pending. They actually posted to my total.

That's the weird part.

Same thing is going on with me. Never seen this happen before, but I'll be keeping an eye on it. Really hope I don't need to jump through hoops to get this $10. R6 is awesome though!

Its happened to me many times before and the bonus points were added a few days later. You should be good.

Same thing with me. The points for the purchase posted about three days after purchase. The extra 500 points were added a few days later. Don't worry, they'll be added.

 
So I'm pretty sure I had my points redeeming at $10 (thought it was at $20) and for some reason I got one in the amount of $15 (not an option). Anyone had this happen? Maybe it was because of a large order which pushed it to another eligible $5?

Also curious what others have theirs set to and their reasoning. Personally I think that not getting them as often will lead to me not wanting to blow more money there all of the time, probably the opposite of their intentions xD But we all know how the backlog effect goes anyways.

Your correct if you have it set to $10 and say you have 490 points, if another 520 points come in, instead of issueing you a $10 Cert it will issue it for all your points.


[attachment=18783:image.png]
For me I always bank my points and just cash them out as I want to spend them. I used $90 Certs in early November and another $40 on Black Friday. All current points are from thanksgiving until now. I should also have more points from the Buy2get1 this week. I plan on using my current balance to buy a Xbox Elite Controller, if it ever comes back in Stock.

Cool thx for the info. Only Elite and Plus can bank I believe >.< nice to have, lame to keep it a perk. But 5,400 since Thanksgiving, isn't that like $1,800?! O.O That's dedication lol.

Also I'm considering getting a PS4 20th Anniversary controller since they're $15 off (and I have that $15 cert I was saving for the Nintendo deal this weekend), but contemplating if there will ever be a better deal vs. how limited/hard to get these will become. Mainly because I don't really need a new controller atm, since I have a white one I just got for $30 but haven't opened (looks great btw). Don't know that I'll ever need more than 2 controllers, lol first world problems.
