[quote name='chenzan']so whats the promotional sale code when i buy online? the sale doesnt show up in the checkout page.[/QUOTE]

The sale will almost certainly be limited items so you can't probably pick just anything on TRU on Amazon... They haven't posted any codes yet...
 
[quote name='chenzan']wait i thought it was any game 2 games and get a game equal or less for free.[/QUOTE]
Only instore... Online you need to pick ones in the same price category (ie all must be $40 or $50 no other prices), they must be in the limited list of games that is offered on the online sale, and they must be on the same system. So if you are doing the online sale things are much more limited. It is just the way the coupons have always worked.

C'mon please someone has to have a list of the games...

Last time I participated in this online there was not a requirement on which games, but the major bummer was no mixing between systems. TRU here is easily the most run-down and poorly stocked establishment I've seen. Unless you want to play Dora the Explorer you can't find anything.

The sale last year had a pretty good list for the limited items but as far as I know it was still limited to a list that they had prepared. It was however basically almost every new game they had at that price point... Maybe you lucked out?

Seriously... Or do I remember it wrong?
 
I'm about to lose it tonight... Maybe I will just have to hit it in the morning... Why can't stores do these things earlier?
 
I'm hoping for 3 of these 4:

Ratchet: Deadlocked (this is the main one I want)
Jak X
Nightmare Before Christmas
RE4

All for ps2. If I can get 3 of those w/ one being Ratchet, I'll be happy.

You ordering online/going later in the week?
 
[quote name='Trakan']You ordering online/going later in the week?[/QUOTE]
Probably can't get RE4 or Ratchet online because they aren't out yet...

C'mon someone has to have a hookup on this... How is that we had the code by now every other time... I know I'm impatient but I want to know what we are allowed to order... Heck I want to get my order in.
 
It's up online now:

# Buy two select GameCube, PlayStation2, or Xbox games priced at $19.99, get a third game free. Promotional code: RTXB2G3VG999.
# Buy two select GameCube, PlayStation2, or Xbox games priced at $29.99, get a third game free. Promotional code: RTXB2G3V2999.
# Buy two select GameCube, PlayStation2, or Xbox games priced at $39.99, get a third game free. Promotional code: RTXB2G3V3999.
# Buy two select GameCube, PlayStation2, or Xbox games priced at $49.99, get a third game free. Promotional code: RTXB2G3V4999.
 
Damn I can't find a third game I want for 49.99 Shining Force Neo, Far Cry can't find another game I want that I dont' allready have
 
You can mix and match platforms this year. Also, I see no free shipping offers for any of the $19.99 games, although that could change on same games later on this week...
 
Does anyone think it would be possible to get three games today and then return one later in the week for GTA (PSP)? Or would the exchange have to be for a PS2/XBX/GC title? If anyone gets to TRU today and can ask I would appreciate it.

Might work with a Gift Receipt only, as long as you're returning a "non-free" game? Take the credit and then purchase whatever you want. This kind of thing worked in the past, but I have no clue if it still does...

you only get back $33, so it wont work.
 
Why am I getting an error didn't recognize promotional code....
I am trying to order: Shining Force Neo 49.99
Atelier Iris 49.99
Stella Deus 49.99
Anyone else having this problem?
 
It has to be a game that's released, if it is released, then that's a problem.
And if it worked with all pre-order games as well, that'd be just too good, that's why it won't happen.

I tried that order and it seems to work. Did you make sure to get all 3 games from Toysrus and not some other store, like Target or Gamestop? All games have to be from Toysrus for the code to work.
 
nm...

Follow the directions he wrote. They should all have an 'R' Us Star by them in your cart. That is the easy way to tell they are right.
 
Thanks, for some reason the Atelier Iris was coming from Gamestop. I redid the order and got them for $113.89 shipped. The only reason I did it online is because I cannot find Stella Deus or Atelier Iris new where I live. I found a copy of each used at EB but they wanted $45 each and one of the cases look liked it had been used for skeet practice.
 
I've got Digital Devil Saga 1, Makai Kingdom, and Fire Emblem on hold at TRU for today.
At BB I'm gonna pick up: Far Cry Instincts (pm'd via Target) $28
Forza $30
Conker live and reloaded $30
KUF Heroes $40
Shadow of the Collossus $40
Shadow of Rome or Oddworld Strangers $30

I ordered the same three games as you earlier this morning for the same exact reason that most TRU stores don't have Atelier Iris or Stella Deus
 
I figured it would be worth it if I could get warriors, soul calibur 3 and re2 for $33 a piece, but I would need to pay $6+ for both shipping and tax. Might be good if I could find each game at b&m, but online is a waste.
 
Going the B&M route sure looks like the better deal here. The online selection is not as good as you would want and the shipping in most cases is $7-10. Given that there is a TRU about 10 minutes from me, I'll probably make the drive.
 
Man, so many games. I am waiting for Spartan: Total Warrior. The other games I want to go along with it are Ultimate Spiderman and Shadow of the Colossus. Maybe, Resident Evil 4 instead of Ultimate Spiderman. I also saw that RE4 is going for 39.99.

Did anyone see Farcry for xbox for 28.88 in the Target ad?
 
I wanted to get Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2, and Makai Kingdom, but they don't even carry DDS 2, I might just pick up Halo 2 LE. Hopefully someone didn't pre-buy Makai Kingdom at the couple Toys R Us's I've seen it at 2 of them 1 copy each.
 
Will this work online with games that have not yet been released? Example: I want to try to get SW Battlefront II, Battlefield 2, and Shadow of the Colossus. Will it work? Plus, can you mix and match games that range in price?

Seriously consider not buying Ultimate Spider-man! I'm a huge fan of the comics and of the free-roaming elements of Spider-Man 2 but USM was just WAY TOO SHORT and they got rid of everything that was fun about swinging (double handed swings, manual controls, high rises, etc.). No joke, I beat the game in about 6 hours and that included doing miscellaneous missions. Thank god it was a rental.
 
If you don't see the promotion listed on the game's product page, it won't work.
No, you cannot mix games across prices online, but I'm pretty sure you can in-store.

Damn. Without being able to use this online and without having a third game I want, I'm probably going to have to back down from this deal........
 
I ordered Stella Deus, Shining Force Neo, and The Warriors which I thought was a good deal. But I just got a confirmation email now saying that while Stella Deus will ship soon, The Warriors and Shining Force Neo won't arrive until Dec. 27- Dec. 29. What the hell TRU..I think I might just cancel.

Well it was 5 hours when I originally placed my order and Stella Deus can't be cancelled... What a joke, this is my last time I use Amazon or any of its BS affiliates.

I was able to order DDS2 this morning from TRU
I got my confirmation and my order is listed as shipping soon.
