The Xbone needs to remove Kinnect and lower the price if it wants a fighting chance. I also heard that the dashboard functionality is terrible. I will pick one up if they sort that out and get rid of Kinnect.Its because the PS4 is kicking the XBO arse.
No, you're not suppose to be able to get PM if you got in on the GC deal. So stop spreading misinformation, moron.You can get the price match even if you got that promo. Tell them that you know they're BS'ing you and that you are allowed to get a price match.
Forza 5 is a driving sim not a racing game. need for speed is a racing gameHighly recommend Ryse and Dead Rising 3, they're both really underrated. Forza 5 got boring fast but I might not be into racers as the reasoning.
Anyone know if I'll be able to, or have any trouble price adjusting Ryse? I bought it for $60($48 after GCU) a couple days before Xmas.
I found Forza 5 incredibly underwhelming. Nothing about it says next-gen to me.Highly recommend Ryse and Dead Rising 3, they're both really underrated. Forza 5 got boring fast but I might not be into racers as the reasoning.

Hust go to the my best but website and sign in. in top right corner, it should say something about being an unlocked member through a certain dateI still get my gamers mag am I still a member? Is there a special code to use? Like when you go to the gamers website
I love when they assume that a $25 GC is better than $21.50 cash.No dice on a price match, they immediately knew I had received the $25 gc with the 2 games ... damn, saving $20 would have been nicer than a giftcard ...
You mean other than the PS4 launch with all games at B2G1?Wow never seen console launch games drop as fast as the main XB1 exclusives in a long time. I can't recall this happening with the 360/PS3, not sure about before that. But 33% within 5 weeks of a console launch is pretty insane, more so with GCU, but that's not really relevant IMO.
Here is the page for the extended returns if you're still looking for it Donut.Thanks. I figured the promotion ended. I can't find the Holiday PM page on Best Buy anymore.
I was able to over the phone. The rep I spoke with gave me a $10+tax refund without any hassle, but I might've just got lucky. Probably worth giving them a call, though. Worst they can do is say no.Has anyone that purchased these with the gift card offers been able to get a price match?
My friend got a Xbox One yesterday for his birthday and while the UI is a bit of a mess the system works great. The voice controls are really good once you learn what command to use. The snap function is pretty awesome. Once they can integrate the voice function into internet browsing completely it will sway a lot of people. I thought I would not like using the voice commands but they were really fun. Switching between football, the store, twitch, IE and bing were quick and we only had to occasionally say things twice. The auto sign-in is pretty neat with the face recognition. It may be a bit of a gimmick but dam it is an impressive one.The Xbone needs to remove Kinnect and lower the price if it wants a fighting chance.

No you can't. You might be able to trick someone into giving you a pm but that's just douchey.You can get the price match even if you got that promo. Tell them that you know they're BS'ing you and that you are allowed to get a price match.
I was going to post this for Donut but you beat me to it. It's on the any receipt printed in that time frame too, so if you have one you should be good to go as far as "proof" to convince them. I too purchased Ryse and DR3 on launch day. Really tempted to go in and try to get them to give me back the difference (because at this point I've already gotten 5 Xbox One games for like $20 out of pocket, getting the difference back here puts me ahead and I can still trade 3 of the games back in).Holiday Return and Exchange Policy

Low Price GuaranteeNo you can't. You might be able to trick someone into giving you a pm but that's just douchey.
What are you convincing them of? That they have an extended RETURN period? Return is different from "Price Match"... yes? You can return the games but like all returns it will be tracked. If you get in the habit of returning games to bypass the price match policy you will lose your ability to do returns.I was going to post this for Donut but you beat me to it.

To answer your questions... yes it is. It's as douchey as complaining when Best Buy won't PM the "capcom store" or eBay Seller "Imastupidcag" or an OOS clearance item at TRU... but not nearly as douchey as trying in the first place.If you bought a game at launch that came w/ a RZ promo, is it "douchey" to get it PM'ed a few weeks later..
He was referring to the person who said that they should price adjust for people who bought the game with the $25 giftcard deal. Throwing a tantrum about that is douchey because you had a deal based on certain pricing, They weren't giving a $25 giftcard when selling it for $32, they were selling them for $40. RZ promos are different. They've always honored those with price adjustments.Called and got all 3 of my games PM'ed w/out a problem.
Bought mine in the store and called the store to see if I can get the price adjusted in the first place. Rep said she could take care of the price adjustment over the phone if I had the receipt on hand (which I did) and that it didn't matter I got in on the $25 gift card deal over the weekend.
BTW, why would there be anything "douchey" about this price match?!? If you bought a game at launch that came w/ a RZ promo, is it "douchey" to get it PM'ed a few weeks later...geez, it's a new year. Stop being an asshole and get off your high horse already...
I got something price matched from mid November a couple of days ago. When they've extend the returns in the past they typically extend the price match policy as well so that people don't do return/rebuy.What are you convincing them of?

Enjoy.
Is there any way to do this without my receipt? Can they just look up my order information?I was going to post this for Donut but you beat me to it.

If you know the order number or used your RZ, they will be able to find it.Is there any way to do this without my receipt? Can they just look up my order information?
DR3. Forza 5 is a disappointment.Mmm, I don't even have a Xone yet and that's damn tempting. Only enough GC for one and would want both Forza and DR.
Those were in my eyes an incentive to just sell games at launch, kind of like a "OOO look cheap games, so buy the system". After the first week we didn't see any real sales on the games. For PS4 games a few dropped to $50 (Shadow Fall and Knack, don't remember Knack being $40, but I remember $50) but to see every XB1 exclusive for 33% off is rather interesting and surprising.You mean other than the PS4 launch with all games at B2G1?
Dead Rising was pretty good game. The story wasn't that great but leveling up is fun and it's one of the best free roaming environments I have ever seen in a video game.DR3. Forza 5 is a disappointment.
Forza 5 is awesome. I have had no trouble getting the cars I want playing very casually. Just last night I got my McClaren P1.(awesome)IMO, DR3 is the only worthy title. RYSE is decent, but you'll be done with the game in about 6 hours. The MP is super boring, so no replay value there. Forza 5. Not sure what Turn 10 was thinking, but I was pretty let down. Forza 5 was the only reason I wanted a Xbone. IMO, it's all about eye candy. Takes way too long to level up, takes a lot of money to buy decent cars, etc etc.
Not sure how long you have been playing Forza, but I have been playing since the first one came out. Forza 2 was the best IMO. Hated Forza 3 and Forza 4 wasn't much better. IMO, Forza 5 is all about eye candy. Naturally, people who have never played Forza will love it because of it's visuals.Forza 5 is awesome.

My only issue with Forza is the carreer mode is very clunky and they need at least 4 more tracks. Gameplay A. Controls A- Appearance A+. Content Cars A Tracks C+
I didn't even think it looked that great. Maybe I was just bitter because of how crappy Thrustmaster's $400 wheel turned out to be (thankfully i was able to return mine).Not sure how long you have been playing Forza, but I have been playing since the first one came out.

Amazon had buy two PS4 games, get 1 one free the week before launch.Wow never seen console launch games drop as fast as the main XB1 exclusives in a long time. I can't recall this happening with the 360/PS3, not sure about before that. But 33% within 5 weeks of a console launch is pretty insane, more so with GCU, but that's not really relevant IMO.
Because Capcom drops prices fast and Forza always drops fast. I'm surprised we didn't see a $34.99 sale on Forza before Christmas.That's why they are cutting them $20 and they came out a week later?
