Sucks that gamestops website doesn't show trade in values for retro games. I have a few N64 games I want to trade in.

It breaks my heart to see gs get anymore of the retro games. I will buy n64, snes, and nes games for real money or trade other newer games or swag or whatever, just please hit me up before giving retro games to gs.

 
grr wish watchdogs didn't drop to $1.50 geez it was just $3.30 a few wks ago now I can't trade it in with the Extra $10 tradein on 2 x1/ps4 games coz it needs a minimum of $2.5 gahhh.  Once it reaches under $2.50 there's no hope of it fluctuating back up right? Anyone know what the minimum is before it no longer goes back up or is $2.50 it?  Looking over the 4 for $10 sheet really quick some games had a $2.75 / $3.03 value then now is up to $3.50 / $3.85

 
Yeah, I was going to mention that you have to keep in mind the fluctuating trade market. Don't buy a game ahead of time if it only trades in for a few dollars; good chance it will drop even further and be useless to you.

Man, that is tempting. +$100 to upgrade to the Alan Wake bundle. What to do...

Depends on how old your system is. I did this when they had the $40 extra coupon. Ended up essentially paying $35 (I'm trading in my controller from the bundle right away) for a white system to match my 360 with a brand new warranty and Quantum Break for free. Factor in the change I'll get for selling Alan Wake and trading QB back in after I beat it and it's a win win for me

Is Quantum Break a physical disc in the bundle?

Will the 20% coupon available now in Active Offers stack with the 20% Bday coupon? I have both...

No, it's in the fine print of the coupons

Makes sense. Reviews are weaker than expected, as well.

Its not a type of game the general Xbox player goes for. I really tired to drum up interest for it but the typical response was if it's not like cod or division in not really interested. Sucks too since the game looks neat.
 
It looks Alan Wake-neat and Alan Wake-successful. A decade from now, some Xbox executive is going to be like, "Yeah, I guess we should have put some distance between them if we wanted Quantum Break to be more succesful."

Also, what's with the egghead titles? Binary Domain is another underrated shooter whose title didn't do it any favors. Singularity was another.

I don't get that. Alan Wake got a great response when it came out. The reviewers are saying it's just not as good as we hoped. I really wanted to hear QB was excellent, but it looks like it's just going to be good.

I put the lady at my GS to work tonight as I traded in an original Xbox, N64, Dreamcast, and Gameboy Advance SP along with some games. Coupling all of that with the $150 promo for my extra 320 GB 360 and I walked out with a 1TB Division XB1 and a $50 GC for $7. I was happy.

Any way you could post receipt details. I am interested in what they actually paid cor the systems since it seems pretty hard to get good info.

They sent out steel books a week or so ago so any preorders that were taken after they shipped they didn't send any for those

Yeah, the guy at my store said when they sent them (a couple weeks ago here) they only had one preorder.

Another store in the area had 5-6 of them under the counter that I saw the other day.

Yep, but that won't take any hurt off the butt of those that don't get the case because they didn't get there early enough. Does GS tell its employees to tell their customers that they might not get any physical preorder bonuses if they wait until less than a week before a game's release? That might actually be a selling point to have someone preorder a game at all.

 
No usually it's not like that. Usually we get more than enough or they just the right amount with the games.

Honestly most the people won't come in the first 48 hours anyways so at that point nothing is guaranteed
 
Looks like they shorted out the steelbooks for most stores. One store received 2 Steelbooks for 6 pre-orders and the store across the street got 6 steelbooks for 13 pre-orders.

Quick question for anyone picking up the QB XB1 bundle, did you guys get a generic headset packed in with yours? I have astros but I just realized I didn't get any. Not sure the new bundles don't come with a headset anymore.

The thing is, it's not THAT different from The Division, in that it seems to be a solid cover shooter with a third-person camera and some special abilities. It's not an MMO, but at the same time, I see lots of people running around The Division by themselves. At this point, it's kind of hard to believe the backlash against and always-online Xbox One, because it seems that a game NEEDS online play to get the attention of the masses anymore.

I got the Halo 5 bundle last November, and it came with a 3.5mm headset. I still have that and the original one from my Titanfall bundle (with the bigger plug-in)

Some do. Some don't. That is no rhyme or reason for which ones do
