of course I don't know what I would get...

You can easily sway them out at any store
 
damnit i can get god of war 3 and uncharted 2, but i can't find a third game i want! maybe i should take it as a sign, i mean i do already have atleast a dozen games at home to play

Unless it's not easy to swap them out or they don't have them...
 
Finally got in early enough to get some PS3 games before they sold out. Picked up LBP2, ModNation Racers and Lego Harry Potter.
 
Wow, this is actually a pretty ridiculous sale since it's currently stacking with CAG16 (though I still can't get certain games to work with the code...ie: Kingdom Hearts RE: CoM). With CAG16, PowerUp, and SAVER on top of this, it's basically 50% off if you're buying 3 equally priced games.
 
Does anyone think

COD:Black ops
Dead Rising 2
Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles

is a good deal at $66? Any better suggestions?
 
:360: Fallout 3: Game of the Year
:360: Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
:ps3: Yakuza 3

$54.83 shipped

This one was my better order. Before discounts it was like $98.xx. Pretty good discount between CAG16, my Edge card (that expired last August, but still works online :lol:), and B2G1.



:ps2: Yakuza
:ps2: Yakuza 2
:ps3: Madden 10

$24.19 shipped

I was just getting ready to order Yakuza 1 & 2 yesterday and held off. Ended up getting both with Madden 10 for cheaper than they would have been together yesterday :).
 
They must have replenished the PS3 stock -- finally saw a copy of Sly Collection used! Got that, AC Brotherhood and Mario Kart Wii all for around $58 shipped with CAG16 to boot. Hope it ships! :D
 
Not sure if I should hold off until I see what some of the amazon gold box deals are for tomorrow. I'd be peeved if Black ops went down to $30 or something. Excellent job OP
 
Debating on whether I should pick MGS4, Valkyria Chronicles, and Infamous for $32 dollars. I don't have a PS3 yet, but will be picking one up in the next month. Hmmm...

i'm the exact same way lottagames......i tell my gamestop clerks all the time listen i'm anal about this stuff. if you don't have the manual book, cover art (original front & back and none of those bullshit madeup blockbuster covers) or case (doesn't have to be original just system standard case) i won't buy it.....i got screwed buying a few games from gamestop.com and never buy online from them....

as a matter fact....isn't time for gamefly.com to have some deals coming up?
 
Put a couple of orders in, thanks OP.

For some reason I was getting the EDGE discount on everything to, which is a weird as I've not has a valid EDGE card for over a year. Mind you I suspect they think I do as I've been getting Game Informer for the last few months.
 
Does anyone know what happens to credit on my Edge card if I cancel the order I used it on? Does it go right back on the card, or is it going to be in limbo for awhile? I've got an order "pending" right now, and I'd like to add an extra game to it if possible.

All you have to do is go into a GameStop with your receipt and swap out generic cases for original ones w/ manual (if they have it).

Its can take up to a week for your credit to refunded back to your card.

I completely agree with this. Bought 4 Splinter Cells not too long ago, Double Agent and the original 3. Only Double Agent came with original box and instructions. The other 3, generic custom cases and no instructions.

Ah, all right. Thanks. I'll leave well enough alone then. Don't want to screw myself out of the deal I already got, haha.

Wow, speaking of said order, I just received this email.

So, they're having to make sure I'm not fraudulently using my store credit? lol. I wonder if they'll cancel any of these orders since you're definitely not supposed to be able to use FEB2G1 with CAG16.
 
Thanks OP. Grabbed 6 PS3 games. FEB2G1+PowerUp Card discount+CAG16 all stacked.

Grabbed some titles for me and the kid.

NBA Jam
Monopoly Streets
GH Warriors of Rock

Fallout New Vegas
Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Infinity Gauntlet
Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom

Total was around $90 for both orders
 
Sigh I am still banned from last b2g1 apparently. Bought a few copies of Black ops then traded them back in to gamestop for about $15 profit a copy.

I'm confused. Why are you guys in a thread specifically for used games online if you don't buy used games online?
 
AC:B is an easy flip to the Zon Xbox ($30) PS3 ($32).

Course, the SKU is a crapshoot with all the Collector editions that are out there not to mention any BB versions that were traded in.

lol. I did the same thing. They haven't unleashed the ban hammer against me yet though.

ouch. how did you get caught?
 
Bought:

NBA 2K11 [32.99]
Fallout: New Vegas [24.99]
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood [32.99]

$60 shipped. Was planning to get NBA 2K11 and Fallout NV new for $60 at Amazon/GameStop this week, but 3 used w/AC: Brotherhood I guess was a better deal.
 
[quote name='bgame2']lol. I did the same thing. They haven't unleashed the ban hammer against me yet though.[/QUOTE]

It is really rather annoying. I spent $1,000s at their store legitimately and the very first time I abuse an oversight on their part they ban me.
 
[quote name='Donut2922']ouch. how did you get caught?[/QUOTE]

Probally because the only way I could do it was to show them my receipt. When I brought them in to the store they said there is no way they could take 12 copies of the same game that the chances of them being stolen were too high or some such thing. I showed them the gamestop.com receipt and they had no choice but to let me trade them in. They grumbled about it and someone probaly reported me, but end of the day I turned like $250-$300 in to about $550 or so gamestop credit AND earned enough rewards points from buying and flipping the games to get a $20 PSN card to boot. Still think its crap I got banned since as I said I have spent $1,000s with their company, but ah well gamestop sucks anyways and it was rare I used them(90% of what I bought got returned for being incomplete)and hey they gave me $150 in credit + a $20 PSN card to boot as a good bye gift ;)
 
I want to get Red Dead Redemption for Xbox 360, but the PS3 version comes with exclusive DLC on the disk right or is it in the form of a code voucher?
 
why is it when i get to the check out, it wont give me one free? am i doing something wrong is there a exception?
 
bread's done
