CONTROL YOURSELF, SON! DAMN!
thats my man
Still find that weird that they didn't add more pre-orders for Rayman Legends when it's not like it's coming out this month or anything. I wonder if it's a glitch from when it was almost released the first time that they think it's too late to still add more pre-orders. I'm sure Ubisoft would have gladly arranged to get FutureShop more copies of the game.
Checked mine and it still hasn't shipped. If it doesn't arrive tomorrow, waiting until Monday is going to be killer...
Doesn't work for me since there is an additional step with my bank, to verify if my credit card is really valid. And it isn't valid if I change the date.
Since I'm only buying three games and I know I won't cancelled any of them, I don't mind using an online gift card to pay right away. I just need to know if I can use a gift card with this promotion.

If they are guaranteeing day one or close to day one, they can't just keep taking pre-orders indefinitely if they've already made allocations.
Any numbers that change might happen between the two sites though - I didn't even bother to check BestBuy this year, so I have no idea if they're sold out of everything either.
Ah, weird.
I've heard that you can pre-order with giftcards. Or so I heard anyway.
Thanks for the heads up! Shipped for me as well although the tracking number they gave me is a bum. Unfortunately I wont have time to play the game till next weekend.
It'll take a few hours/overnight for the tracking number to actually work.
I only pre'd like nine games, 7 of them are ps4 lol.
So far:
Xbox One:
TitanFall
Forza 5
Dead Rising 3
MGS5
BF4
Destiny
Xbox 360:
Arkham Origins
I want to keep going but it's $316 total
Step your game up.

Has anyone who's recieved a Last of Us shipping notice recieved a code for the Sony headset discount?
I want Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros. digital. Debating on another batch of three games to get, alraedy pre-ordered Wonderful 101, Donkey Kong and South Park : The Stick of Truth with this. Will watch some inFamous and Saints Row 4 videos, if I get those, I'll probably add on Mario 3D World and make it another batch.
Fuck it then, I'm going in (Drake voice)
nope! did you have to preorder at a specific time? mine is from e3 2012.
I don't work on Fridays so if it's not in my mailbox by noon I'm going to the store to pick one up then return it later.

Are you Chad Warren?
My final pre-order list:
Order #1:
Super Mario 3D World [Wii U]
Sonic Lost World [Wii U]
Legend of Zelda Wind Waker [Wii U]
Order #2:
Pikmin 3 [Wii U]
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze [Wii U]
Wonderful 101 [Wii U]
Order #3:
Mario Kart 8 [Wii U]
Bayonetta 2 [Wii U]
Super Smash Bros. [Wii U]
Order #4:
Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster [PS3]
Pokemon X [3DS]
Pokemon Y [3DS]
Mario & Luigi Dream Team [3DS]
Legend of Zelda Link Between Worlds [3DS]
Super Smash Bros. [3DS]
Super Luigi U [Wii U]
Yoshi's Land [Wii U]
I avoided pre-ordering the games that will likely have a Special/Limited Edition, or pre-order bonuses [Metal Gear Solid V, Final Fantasy XV, Disgaea D2, etc.] and mainly focused on the ones that won't likely drop in=price for a long while and that I had a lot of interest in [hence the abundance of Nintendo titles].
It might look like a lot of games, but for the price I could not resist!

It's in the OP. I miss when GAF used to ban people who didn't read the OP of threads.

I dont know whether to get BF4 for PC or PS4
Anyone else knows ?
I have a question for returning a game. Let's say they shipped my order and I think that I don't want this game and I want to return it. Will they refund for what I paid?
Yes, you can. There's an option if you want to use a gift card and you can even check the balance.

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD (wish I could've gotten the Vita versions though)
Tales of Xillia
Lightning Returns: FFXIII
KH3
Final Fantasy XV
Infamous Second Son

Unless God Eater 2 gets announced for localization, I should be set for the next couple of years. May pick up Hatsune Miku to support the localization effort.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Yes, bring the unopened game and invoice (which they don't include with the orders anymore so you will have to print it out) to any Futureshop store.

I take it the PSEye and Controller don't count for the deal?
Alternatively you could bring the shipping envelope with you and they can find it too, a little more work sometimes though.
Yeah, they do indeed.Nintendo really has us by the balls with their price holding.
There's really no point in waiting for the price of Nintendo titles to lower, unless you feel like waiting 2-3 years [even then, there's no guarantee].
Regardless, they oftentimes offer incredible replay value and are, in general, so damned fun to play. So I do not mind paying, especially when I can get them for prices as cheap as this.
