I just needed to see this post before I proceeded on doing the same thing. Thanks, lol.
dude I thought that shit was gonna be $40.
It's a PS3 game!
I'll just wait until it reaches that price, probably a month or two after it's out. Not dying to replay TLOU yet, even with prettier graphics.
Thanks for the break down on prices.
I've already ordered the following:
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (PS4)
Assassin's Creed Unity (PS4)
Batman: Arkham Knight (PS4)
Star Wars: Battlefront (PS4)
Alien Isolation (PS4)
Battlefield: Hardline (PS4)
The Division (PS4)
Mad Max (PS4)
Tales of Xillia 2 (PS3)
Halo 5 (XBO)
Quantum Break (XBO)
D4 (XBO)
This is on top of the 10 or so games from last year's E3 sale that I still have outstanding and the one remaining one from the E3 sale the year before (The Last Guardian
).
I always pre-order everything I think I would ever want to play from these sales and just return the ones I don't want after I receive them.

The Vita selection is sadly lacking. Hopefully XSEED's catalog gets added.
Just pre-ordered:
Smash 4 (Wii U)
Hyrule Warriors (Wii U)
Batman: Arkham Knight (PS4)
So happy I pre-ordered a bunch of games last year!
The Evil Within (PS4)
Smash 3DS (3DS)
Destiny (PS4)
X (Wii U)
Bayonetta 2 (Wii U)
Yoshi's Land (Wii U)
SMTxFE (Wii U)
Final Fantasy XV (PS4)
MGS V (PS4)
That's one hell of a list. Kinda regret not pre-ordering Kingdom Hearts 3 last year, but that game probably won't be out until 2018, and who knows? Maybe by then games will be back down to $59.99 ; _ ;
Probably gonna pre-order Pokemon next week along with some newly announced games (Zelda U and Majora's Mask 3D, perhaps?)

I hope so too, but I'm not optimistic. XSEED games are usually listed by FS and BB at the last minute. I would love to pre-order Story of Seasons now...

Completely agree with this. I enjoyed it a lot.. For $20 it seems like a no-brainer
I'll happily pay $20 after the Sony conference and only if it isn't announced as a PS+ title.
This clearing out of stock is telling.
So far I grabbed:
-Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls
-Last of Us Remastered
-The Crew
-Sacred 3
-Pokemon I forget who cares
-WiiU X
From last year I still have
-FFXV
-Kingdom Hearts 3
-Mirros Edge(not a typo lol)
-Last Guardian
-Yoshi's epic Yarn
-Witcher 3
Maybe more I forget.
Time to wait and see what gets announced.
Looks like BB is the way to go but I'll keep tabs on FS in case they put up a game for $60 by mistake.

I will be shocked if Knack is not announced at E3 as being the first full title free rental on PS+
Well you can use Paypal.

If you have Optimum points you can take advantage of the bonus redemption this weekend.
It's going to be a PS+ title. The question is, how long from now?
First three games grabbed:
The Order 1886
The Last of Us Remastered
Driveclub
Definitely going to order more, but I'll wait until next week. Not sure on the platform for a lot of them, since I'm thinking about investing in a new computer in the near future.
EDIT:
That didn't take long. Grabbed The Witcher 3, Civilization: BeyondEarth, and Arkham Knight. All for PC, so I guess I'll be putting that new PC together at some point in the next six months!

Welp, just promised Futureshop and Nintendo I'd give them $230 later. Jerks.
Going to wait and see how much I'm going to promise Sony.

Hmm, Dong Freeze for $28 and tax? Tempting.

Getting really hard to track this thread!
Also Knack at $20 is a must buy, one of the very few family friendly couch co-op games available and a good one too, don't believe the haters!

I agree, why waste $20 on it when it will be free soon? Lots of people can wait until then.

Combine that with the Target receipt coupon ($5 off) and it's even less.
Use the self-checkout for less awkwardness as you buy 5 packs of gum in separate transactions.
Alrighty. All I got so far since the selection is sparse.
Quantum Break
Halo 5: Guardians
Hyrule Warriors
Pokemon Alpha Sapphire
Pokemon Omega Ruby
Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call
Bayonetta 2
X
Super Smash Bros U
Tales of Xillia 2 (Why am I preordering this, Bamco will put this up for $10 a few months later)
SMT x FE
Sunset Overdrive
Got Smash 3DS but I need two more games to get the full discount :/

Couldn't you have added smash to one of your other orders? Or is it limited to only 3 games per order.?

I picked it up when it was used for $19.99 and traded it at EB for $23.33 after beating it.

They don't need to be grouped in 3s. Just add everything to a single order and all games will get the discount.
But then if you change your mind your going to have a pain the ass manipulating such a big order.
MrBambinoDent

After last E3 split orders I can't see any benefit of doing that, you can cancel separate games, if a game gets cancelled your order will still be there for the rest of the items, you can return a game after you get it no hassle!
Edit: BB is starting to crap on me after I put 16 games in the cart!

Why have Skylanders in the preorder list if it isn't eligible?
With the recent plethora of Shoppers' coupons I don't know how many of these I'll get into. Maybe I'll place an order when the selection gets a bit better, I'd be hard pressed to find more than a few games I'd absolutely have to have at launch.

Went with Alien: Isolation, Evil Within and Battlefield:Hardline all for PS4. I'm a sucker for collector's editions so I'm holding out on games like The Order as I'm sure I'll want the Deluxe-Overpriced Edition!!!
That's what I'm thinking of for Assassin's Creed / Arkham Knight / The Division. But I got the latter 2 anyways just in case.
EA doesn't put up a lot of special editions.
That's why I haven't preordered Destiny yet. You just KNOW there is going to be a sweet collectors edition of that game. Hopefully it gets announced next week.
