Looks like you can only the games on the list are valid. I tried ordering Kingdom Hearts (a greatest hit that isn't on the list) with Jak II, and it wouldn't let me. Sucks.

Weird. I got Metroid Prime which was on the list and Zelda Windwaker which wasn't on the list for $25 plus tax and shipping. They charge too much on the sales tax...grrrr...

I'm calling customer service and seeing if they can combine my 2 orders and save me some shipping...
 
[quote name='guyver2077']WTF MAN....

now im trying mario golf and project gotham 2 and its giving me the same shit....

damn you eb[/quote]

Those games aren't even on the list....
 
Go to the Thanksgiving Special link on the main page, pick the first page it shows at the 2 for 25 deal and you will get the pop up window with the 2FOR25 code. IT HAS A LINK TO THE GAMES ALLOWED, each word "player's choice" "greatest hits" etc, I'm going to guess those are the only games they will allow for that coupon code...

Let us know how that works out. I think they have it set up so they can get more shipping out of you at least. I had to make 3 orders because it wouldn't let me combine any of the sale add stuff on one order. Still better than fighting the crowd at the mall!

Just spoke to someone on the phone who said they're having some issues with the coupon working, and they're getting it fixed as we speak. 20-30 minutes and it should be fixed.

Last year when Animal Crossing and Smash Bros were $30 they let me do the 2 for $25 in store.

(I just ordered Final Fantasy X-2 and Midway Arcade Treasures 2.)

I don't know then. I'll try again just in case. They changed the PS2 list, it has less games now. I missed out on Sly Cooper too, even though when I first input the code with the game in my cart it was accepted. It wasn't until I went to checkout that I got the "must be $39.98" message and Sly Cooper was gone. :(
 
Was able to place 3 orders, some of the games weren't on the list. It cut me off after 3 orders, saying I'd hit the maximum for the code (can't really complain, though).

GC-Zelda Wind Waker
GC-Animal Crossing

XBX-Midway Arcade Treasures 2
PC-Colin McRae 05

GC-Super Monkey Ball 2
GC-Mario Golf

Had I known the cutoff was 3 orders, I would have thought a little more about what I wanted, since I had these others on the list:
PS2-Tony Hawk Underground
XBX-Crimson Skies
GC-Metroid Prime
GC-Sonic Mega Collection (would have tried the XBX version first, though).
 
[quote name='Drakken']Darn it. I used the 2FOR25 once, and it says I've used it the maximum amount of allowable times. That's upsetting. :x[/quote]

that's odd... i used it twice in 3 minutes with no problem. give it another try...
 
[quote name='"Drakken"']Darn it. I used the 2FOR25 once, and it says I've used it the maximum amount of allowable times. That's upsetting. :x[/quote]

Doing that to me too. And I've only placed one order.
 
Tried to order Tony Hawk 4 and Conflict Desert Storm, both of which show in PH packaging on their website. Didn't work, saying I didn't have $39.98 in the right category.

When I tried to order Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy X-2, it said the same thing. Did it over the phone, and the guy overrode it without any problem.
 
Melee isn't going to be on the list, you just copied it yourself, it says all PC, GH, PH, etc...
REGULARLY 19.99!

what's Melee going for? it only meets one of the criteria, not both (which I decry since it's supposedly the best selling game on the GC, it's almost as bad as how MS didn't even drop the price of halo until almost halo 2! gah!)

29.99 is the PC price of Melee, so it wouldn't fit in that deal

Nope, still not working. :(
 
I was hoping I'd be able to get College Hoops 2k5 in the 2 for 25 deal with Katamari Damancy, but it didn't work, so i settled for 007 Everything or Nothing.
So I got:
Katamari Damancy
007 Everything or Nothing
Doom 3
for $50.13
 
So should I wait up and see if the other GH, PC, PH, etc. games become validified, or just order based on the list that's linked to?

crap 007...thats one of the games i wanted...let me try again with that.

funny wont let me do it with 007 and pgr2 but will work with mario golf and 007

I wouldn't wait - the games are disappearing from the list from being sold out...
 
Just picked up Katamari Damacy + FFX-2 in-store for $25.

As a side-note, though, it looks like the 75% off PC games isn't combinable with the "B2G1".
 
guyver, if there are ANY other two games you want and you're only doing it online, I strongly suggest you do it now because games are dropping from the acceptable list VERY quickly, I've seen the games I was thinking about getting change position twice in the last 15 minutes, although I decided I'm not going to get them...

I think the ONLY way you're going to get melee in on this deal is if you have at least one local EB, and you take that ad in to them and just keep pointing at the part that says ANY GH/PC/PH title, and hope it gets added in by a manager or something too scared to contest what a customer shows is in an advertisment. I'm sure the regularly 19.99 was indeed added into that statement intentionally, and if you see, it certainly fits with what you're able and not able to do.

Anyway, I would have ordered that if it was on the list, too, I've been officially against paying anything but 20 dollars for it brand new because it seems Nintendo is trying to rip people on that game (or squeeze it for dear life)...
 
[quote name='trunks982']damn sly cooper gone[/quote]

Heh, I just got up and ordered, should have known Sly would be gone by now. I tried to order last night at midnight and later a few times but it was a no go. Oh well, got Katamari Damacy and Jak and Daxter 1.

Looks like a lot of us are buying Katamari Damacy!
