Not a lot going on for this offer right now. I'm hoping Dying Light's trade-in offer is good, because pairing that with the rewards cert would be delicious.

 
i hope they add the order 1886 to it, since they prohibited the use of gift card to pay for anything that comes with a gift card offer. this is the best deal for games.

Where's my certificate for Halo 5 ? I've been playing the Beta for 3 days already ... should I be worried , maybe I should call ?
 
anybody else worried that most of these games were delayed by months, aka best buy hasnt added anything new for a long time?

 
Sorry, I'm a n00b when it comes to pre-ordering new releases at Best Buy (just jumped off the LameStop/Amazon bandwagon thanks to the $30 GCU deal). So when I pre-order a game via Best Buy's website for release day pickup at my local store, I don't pay anything down for it immediately at the time of the pre-order?

If you pay with GC it takes the amount right away, for a debit or credit card it does a rolling charge.

They'll put a hold on your card. If you use a giftcard it takes the value right away.

If you don't want 50 tied up right away, you can always go in store and just put down $5. Or wait until a couple days prior release to preorder.

if you really want to squeeze every penny, just go to your local store, and put $5 down on deposit like gs.

As for the poll, I plan on buying every game on the list - as long as trade in values continue to start at 44 with gcu

I pay 48+tax, and get 10 back in rewards (comes out to me paying about 42), then can trade game in a couple weeks later for 44 (plus $1.50 in RZ pts).

Or in other words, every game on the list is a free 3 week rental in my world when I'm using credit/certs to buy the games anyway
 
Sucks no Sony first party games. No Order, no Bloodborne. From the list only Witcher 3 and Batman are lock day one. Maybe Dying light and evolve for the free rentals unless they suck.

Agree. I had never cared before that ps4 titles weren't listed, since I didn't own a ps4. But now that I've got one I'm keeping, I want to see Thr Order on that list

Elder Scrolls Online still isn't worth it.
 
Sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm new to GCU and thought preorders didn't give you the 20% off discount.  Am I wrong about that, does the discount still apply in this instance along with getting the $10 off from the promotion?

 
Yes, but you don't get $10 off. You get a $10 reward cert.
Can you apply that $10 towards your pre-order? Meaning, if I pre-order Witcher 3 online, can I use the $10 rewards certificate when I go to pick it up?

One concern I have is that while pre-ordering 3 games, it looks like it is charging me for all of them now. I do not want this, since then I cannot apply my rewards certificates (at the very least) towards the 2nd and 3rd preorder. :whistle2:/

Nope, you get the points added after you pick up the game/it gets delivered. If you can just preorder them in store for at least $5 down, if you don't want to have the pending charges or actual charges if you pay by gift card

Thanks for the response.

I don't care so much about them putting a hold on my credit card, unless they auto charge that card when the game comes out. I would like to have the opportunity to apply Witcher 3's $10 cert to Batman (for example). If it charges me for all of them now or puts a hold and auto charges the card later -- how will I use my certificate on Batman or additionally, Batman's certificate on Halo 5?

I guess I can just go into the store, but I was feeling lazy. :p

Just preorder them like the week before they come out. You'll have the cert by then from the previous purchase, most likely.
 
Hi new thread. Got :xb1: Evolve preordered at MS store so no cert for that but I have :ps4: Dying Light preordered at Best Buy. Not sure about getting anything else on the list besides DL. I'm getting The Order 1886 and Bloodborne on launch so please add those BB  :pray:

Also htz, add this to the op if you want to give a heads up if people are getting Dying Light. https://dockets.dyinglightgame.com/ This is Dying Light's preorder but the faster you register the more weapon dockets you get. Right now its at 4 because there is only 4 weeks left. It goes down every week so the sooner the better. I got mine in at 5, it started at 7 I think. The good thing about the dockets, is you can save them until you are much higher ranked to get even better weapons.

So I put down $5 in-store for a Witcher 3 preorder, but there was no mention of the steelbook promo anywhere on the receipt. Should I be worried and/or proactively do anything to guarantee I'll get it? Thanks!

 
once you get to payment page, when trying to paid with gift card, you will get your answer
No again, that didnt answer either of my questions which first was WHEN did Best Buy start doing this? Obviously I can see that its a thing now. The second was in regards to The Order having a gift card promo

you better show up on release day to ensure you get a steelbook. bestbuy.com in store pickup order get first priority . whatever is left is up for grabs, as long as you prerorder/ purchase the game on release date. that is what happened with arkham origins steelbook, when i preordered in store with $5 deposit. i had to ask for the steelbook, when i went to pick it up. while the instore pickup orders were set aside with the steelbooks with bestbuy pickup stickers

Will do, thanks!

 
I got a bunch of Best Buy gift cards for Christmas. If I pay with these gift cards, use my GCU discount, and preorder will I still be eligible for the $10 promo? I think the answer is yes, seeing as I haven't found anything to the contrary and I read the terms and conditions, but I'd still be pleased to have some kind of confirmation.

Yeah the only thing gift cards make you lose is the actual purchasing points, but the $10 in preorder points still apply
