I don't think that is correct. My Best Buy is going have a emailed code and Target employees said they might not even get him.

They also just posted up a Ultimate Edition Pass which is basically the Season Pass upgrade to the Ultimate Edition which includes Darkseid as well. So even if you can't find the Ultimate Edition but want to upgrade to it, you can do so quite easily.

The season pass won't include all the dlc characters right? Only the first 9?

I wonder if they would do a Komplete Edition lol silly to call the $100 copy Ultimate Edition. From what I've read, they plan on releasing many more dlc characters

It's advertised as the first 9. I'm sure that they will have a 2018 Season Character Pass or whatever they end up deciding to call it for next year. Interestingly the DLC in the Ultimate Edition says that it must be redeemed by 5/16/2027. I doubt they plan on supporting the game for 10 years though.

Can Gamestop employees see everyone who owns an account at a specific address? Is that how someone had their 2nd acct terminated above? Using an old address of mine...I don't think that address was used originally when creating my former acct but idk if GS can search that way...I should've used the address of 1 of my parents' rental properties thinking back...would be super weird if they can search then they'll wonder why I have 2 accts rofl or if a bunch of gamers live there and all come up..but I do have a legitimate reason that GS.com can't unfortunately fix...only way around it is by creating another acct.

My saved trades values data is corrupted under my real acct, was lazy and didn't delete old games and system values...so annoying now i have to manually jot everything down.

Data becomes corrupted after ur 99th save. The 100th save empties ur saved trade values page on app & website. It says i have no values saved and any attempt to add another value errors out saying there was a problem saving that value. Can't delete old values coz ur trade values page is blank grr apparently it was only programmed with a max of 2 digits and therefore 100 being 3 digits messes up the data to become undisplayable.

Anyone know if the phones promo works yet for any phone thats not in system?

Blackbeard is there anyway to generate a list of stores that have Retro games in stock? I know they are supposed to send that stuff to the warehouse but I've heard tell of a few stores that keeps some of it and sell it.

Just call the stores that interest you and ask them.

NO, WE LIVE AND DIE BY THE SHEETS NOW! THERE IS NO CALLING!

On a related note, Blackbeard could you get a list of everything in the entire GameStop inventory and list everything every store has in stock. And then cross reference this list with every retailer that takes trades with a percentage (positive or negative). Then add a gas mileage calculator that pulls values from gas buddy, Google maps, and the nada so I will be able in input my car and locations and it will tell me how much I am spending in gas to make these flips. Also, I will need to know this data at all times of the day so, I am going to need you to keep this updating at 15-30 second intervals.

Today is the last day for the hidden gems 50% bonus, and I've been going back and forth about buying Stardew Valley for Xbox One. The digital copy is $14.99, but supposedly, there's a collector's guide or book that comes with the physical copy. I actually want to play this game, and I'm not trying to flip towards anything but the game, but does anyone think that it's worth it for me to go physical in this case? Whether I need another game or not is irrelevant since I've got a backlog that will take me through the apocalypse.

Personal call. The extra $10 for the physical copy is for the 4 page "mini-guide", a map, and a soundtrack (don't know if it's a separate disk or a dlc thing). Worth it? Not for me, but I needed to buy something when I got the 50% trade boost. Like you, Stardew is on my backlog wishlist. I wanted the digital copy at $10 or less...(the sealed copy is mocking me right now on the bookshelf).

Decisions, decisions...

oh yeah - go to amazon and look at the video. It will show you what is included. A buyer has posted pics of the map and his disappointment at the "guide".

I got PvZ 2 for $12 at Target, and with the bump, it covered the whole purchase. For that price, I think it's well worth it. The soundtrack is it's own CD, and the mini guide and map have a nice hand drawn look.

Game is definitely worth it and yes the soundtrack is on a separate physical disc.

Beautiful package overall, imho.

Just buy a copy of GTA IV Complete from Best Buy for $11.99 with GCU and trade it towards Stardew Valley for $22.50. Almost covers the difference between digital and physical by itself

 

[Faithful]

GTA IV complete for Xbox 360/Xbox one BC is on sale today at BB for $14.99 ($11.99 after GCU). $15 base trade value at GS or 22.50 with 50% bonus.

Y'all know what to do...

-edit- Kyle beat me to it!

 

[blackslash]

Arent they doing another 50%  with another set of games the second half of this month?

I got some cheap copies last night on Amazon, so that's another place to try if you have an Amazon gift card (most of us should lol)

 

[josekortez]

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I think I'm going to trade towards Stardew Valley this afternoon. I don't think Little Nightmares is my type of game, so I'll pass on that. But my copy of Cabela's African Adventure for Xbox One and a copy of Phantom Pain for 360 from Target will cover Stardew once the bonus has been applied. I have two extra bills that I need to pay this month, so I haven't been buying anything lately that wasn't trade-in fodder, but I've only heard good things about Stardew, and it seems like a game that someone can put a lot of hours into without getting bored. So thanks for chiming in.

Kinda hard to check since some stores might have any of 1500 retro games in stock and also some stores forget to defect the games out and show them in stock even though they do not sell them. Theoretically it probably would take 5 mins to check each individual store for all retro games * 3886 stores.

Opinions on Horizon Zero Dawn? Is a new copy worth $40 after the $20 off coupon this week?

There's no dlc if you buy it new. You might as well buy it with a B2G1 sale/coupon if you have any. 1 Horizon Zero Dawn, 2 BOTW...enough said

 

[Faithful]

Opinions on Horizon Zero Dawn? Is a new copy worth $40 after the $20 off coupon this week?

I personally am loving it. I'm on the final chapter. Was my #1 game of the year so far until I picked up Zelda, which is why I'm still on the final chapter!

I would say it's worth it at $40 unless you're catching up on your backlog. It'll come down eventually but it's worth picking up and playing right now at that price. It's also on the extra 40% trade credit when you buy 2 "playlist" games if you are trading stuff in.

Physical CD of the soundtrack.

Isn't purchasing Guardians of Galaxy still giving 50% until the end of the month?

 

[Querjek]

Isn't purchasing Guardians of Galaxy still giving 50% until the end of the month?

Yes, through 5/28. There is also the "playlist" promo which is valid through 6/11.

 

[Fat Pigeon 007]

Isn't purchasing Guardians of Galaxy still giving 50% until the end of the month?

yes until the 28th I think, hoping for a nice stealth bump at the end of the month to work with. I got a bunch of 3ds games locked and loaded

 

[plus1zero]

Does the $20 off HZD apply to new or used?

 

[DANIEL]

Opinions on Horizon Zero Dawn? Is a new copy worth $40 after the $20 off coupon this week?

is it possible to use the $20 off coupon on Zero down plus a rewards certificate (together)?

 

[An actual noob]

Just realized a gamestop near me sells hooters gift cards I know what I'm doing after every stealth bump! But seriously what normal GameStop customer would need a hooters gift card for?

Rumor for store manager is starting tomorrow electronics are going to get an extra 50% for cash and credit.

Highly skeptical about +50% extra on cash but but if true then maybe get some good flips with the 25% off going on...

It's true. All of it.

 

[Liquid Metal]

BB, can you hack into gamestops system and give all of us 100,000,000 points. Will make flipping a lot easier. Thanks

I did prove you can get a PUR point loan though.

 

[chrome3333]

Kind of curious does it have anything to do with the glitch I posted before about login into and out of accounts. It no longer works with Chrome and was wondering if it might work with another browser.
