I actually just realized that GameStop can't run out of this since it's a preorder. Although, I guess they could stop the deal whenever they wanted.
It's been on the GameStop front page, too. Hopefully they won't end this deal because of FatWallet.
why does everyone keep thinking FW is going to kill this deal? A lot more people view this topic at CAG than at FW.[/quote]
FW doesn't kill deals like this.
They kill deals like:
FFXI @ CC for $37.49
MGS 3 @ KB for $19.99
R&C:UYA @ Sears for $14.99
CC games @ $5
TRU Green Tag Clearance games
and so on.....
Stuff with quick, tangible returns on investment are the only things that FW craps out of existance. You only get one coupon per person, and you can't do much with the game without the UPC on it, so I don't see FW killing it.[/quote]
I think some of those deals got more damage from CAG. For example, they had one topic on the Green Tag sale, and it wasnt even focus on video games. Plus from the people I talked to in store and cashier most of them got the list from CAG. Most of those topics got more views here than at FW. FW seems to kill computer hardware deal faster, but for games there isnt that much interest.[/quote]
I'll agree with you that some of the deals above had more damage by CAG, especially with TRU Green Tag @ 90% w/EB trade in 2 for $10 add'l, though I know that there were an awful lot of MGS3 and FFXI w/HD copies showing up on eBay pretty quickly. I know MGS3 made the rounds at FW, as did the $5 CC sale, since I saw people with the list from FW on that sale, though when it seems like something for a quick money reward, FW is all over it. Not saying CAG isn't on it as well, though when it comes down to it, FW seems more on cleaning out places to make a profit than CAG does.
