There is no way this is just any current gen game right? That seems too ridiculous.

Even if it were true, I don't think I want to bother trying to beat the RFD crowd.

In store reserve my friend. I already put all three titles on reserve. Will hit up fs first thing tomorrow.

 

[kitzkozan]

I'm gonna probably get all 3 of these since this offer is just so silly lawl. I've got games which I wasn't sure I would be able to sell, but it seems like I might be able to dump them after all. If I can dump stuff like NHL 09 then it's just a bonus. :]

 

[BadHand]

Getting Battlefield 4 and AC4 on hold, drag my wife in there with me first thing in the morning.

Shame I can't get my 5 year old to reserve COD on my behalf.

how does this work? when we go to pickup the order, we just pull out our game and say we are trading it in? i've never traded in games at futureshop.

Yeah, exactly. I would do the reserve ASAP as I wasn't able to do it for bf4. People are catching on.

that one says next gen. is it current gen or next gen?!

 

[flkraven]

This has got to be bullshit...right? right?

 

[sammich]

I cant trade in for PC versions can i? If so im so f'in doing this.

ok they need to confirmt his. i won't do the upgrade thing (i'd hate to have 50gb taken up on the drive AND have to put in a disc), but i would be down for a regular next gen copy.

One per customer per game? Or only 1 game period?

 

[DenogginizerOS]

I believe this is only for current gen versions of these games.

 

[Junior Mint]

Let the insanity begin !

aren't the XBO games still streetdated? It is probably current gen since the article would only say PS4 games (or wiiU)

 

[explodet]

Will in-store reserves even work? They're not selling them, they're giving them away free.

They put it away for you NOW, and you go pick it up and trade in game for free (basically make sure you get one).

 

[btkadams]

they posted a correction and it is just for the current-gen. so, you would still have to do the upgrade thing for the ps4 version where you download the game on ps4 and need the ps3 disc to play. i honestly don't know if it's worth it for me. i think i'll stick with my $40 preorder of battlefield.

Eh, works for me.
I've got a game or two I can part with.

 

[Malechai]

it costs nothing to put a reserve and they put it behind the counter today. you have no committment. if the deal ends up BS or they have a game list then just do go in and pick it up. theres nothing to lose here. I put in my reserve for ac4

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Are there FutureShops in the U.S.? I don't think I've ever heard of it.

 

[squall23]

I'm in if I can get PC version of BF4.

 

[SuperSah]

ANY current gen game?!

Take Mindjack!

 

[phoenix296]

Has best buy confirmed they are doing this?

Are there FutureShops in the U.S.? I don't think I've ever heard of it.

Futureshop is Canadian. This deal is probably exclusive to Canada.

 

[Liberty4all]

I've got my 3 trade in games ready

 

[FairXchange]

Is it really correct that they'll take any current generation game? Really, any game? I need some fine print or details on this!

Yep. FS themselves have confirmed.

Madness. I wouldn't even do it because I can't imagine how crazy it's going to be at FS tomorrow.

 

[H3xum]

Wowwwwowowowow

How can this be? I'm sure theres zero chance but I hope domestic Best Buy picks this up.

I know there is a 10 dollar upgrade on CoD and BF4, but is there one for AC4 as well?

 

[FairXchange]

I guess my only real problem is that I'm on Bell internet, my bandwidth is crap, and I won't have the convenience of playing my new games if I have to slowly download 50gbs per game . Still, this is very tempting to jump on.

There's an upgrade for all three titles. A voucher for it is in the game case.

This is one of the most insane trade-in deals, ever (especially if you can do the $10 next-gen upgrade on top of it). Shame it's Canada only.

 

[FairXchange]

Also, 1 game per customer, so you have to choose between AC, BF and COD.

I reserved all three, oops lol.

 

[Malechai]

source?

 

[BraXzy]

Waa..whatttt? Surely there has to be a catch? If they make a $15 profit on every game that is traded in, they are still gonna be losing so much money.

Why are all these recent ludicrous deals US only?!

this isn't a US deal..

Fortunately, this one isn't.

What about for the XB360 version?

 

[Liberty4all]

Better hurry, Futureshop is almost sold out in Toronto.

Is this a Best Buy Canada deal too?

 

[Malechai]

https://twitter.com/FS_Gamer/status/398874050619244544

Hmm..still doesnt say ANY game. I've got my copy on reserve regardless just in case.

 

[Mercury Land-Snake]

Not sure. PS3 versions are like this.

[The Elite]

A lot of the stores that had Battlefield 4 are already off the list for in store pick up. Hope they have stock for walk-ins.

 

[calder]

Hmm, sounds like a plan!

There are a handful of Future Shop locations that are not participating in the promotion, due to what the company calls “local laws on trade-ins.” The stores not participating in the promotion are located in Nanaimo, Kelowna, Vaughan, St. James, Garden City, Pembina and Richmond Hill.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.

 

[Junior Mint]

Boom

I put it on my shopping cart along with COD and AC4, reserved them, and the confirmation said they held it BF4 as well. We'll see. It's only 1 per customer, so I don't really think I'll get the three games with trades, I may have to pick 1.

 

[Jacksonlee]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.

i wasn't that suprised when it read richmondhill/vaughn didnt participate, because they dont do trade ins at all...

what makes you think they'll do this specific trade in if they didnt do trade ins at all? :S it sucks... but blame da laws

 

[Tsundere]

The walk-in stock is the store reserve stock.

 

[breadtruck]

Bring this deal down south!

 

[Megasoum]

Any chance those PS3 version of AC4 are a weird unique SKU that doesn't have the 10$ upgrade?

 

[vinnygambini]

Haven't received my email confirmation for pick-up yet :s
