Oh damn, I didn't see this. Well, this isn't good considering I already made one order that doesn't have everything in it..

EDIT: I'm on the Amazon page and I don't see that though?
I think it refers to game copies (Offer limited to one per customer and account.), not orders (hyperlink of "here's how"), so I was wondering if anyone had any trouble ordering two copies of something and if the discount did apply (mostly is about Anthem for me).

Special offers and product promotions
Save 20% on select games when you pre-order during E3. Discount will apply at checkout. Full list of qualifying games can be found at: https://www.amazon.ca/b?ie=UTF8&node=14743896011 Here's how (restrictions apply)
Pre-order Price Guarantee! Order now and if the Amazon.ca price decreases between your order time and the end of the day of the release date, you'll receive the lowest price. Here's how (restrictions apply)

Their library isn't good enough to justify my ownership of the system. Switch's library is obviously worse but I've given it some latitude in being able to play it on the go.

Do you like videogames ? lol

Nah I understand that tastes vary a lot but the PS4's library is very diversified. We just had a streak of great games launching on PS4 in 2017 so it's weird that you think the PS4's library is lacking.

Im always amused watching the e3 portion of the thread. But I’m a ‘wait until it’s $20’ kinda guy anyway. I enjoy living vicariously through you all.
 
Man, all of my e3 preorders are still slated for 2018. I hope Sony's e3 conference manages to tide me over for Spiderman and some new 2017 games :/
 
The Nintendo games have been out of stock at Walmart for the most part, so they're probably not going to bother.

Hopefully they're back up (and priced at 50) by the time of Ninty's conference... I have Odyssey in my cart from last time but it went out of stock as I was ordering. :| That's literally the only unannounced game I'm interested in that I still need.

Between CDKeys and the Humble Store it doesn't have much of a library.

Can I blame them for being a shitty company that isn't initiating any deals and are just following Walmart's lead this year?
You can, but here are also hundreds of games Amazon is offering for 20% off that Wal Mart isnt, so you win some, you lose some.

I would bang a hot farmer!

BB's 20% off is better than Amazon's because you also get RZ points. It's not a lot of points but it does eventually add up. Only reason to go with Amazon is if you plan to hassle CS after the game ships telling them they didn't apply a Prime discount also hoping they do it.

Agreed, in the end you do receive quite a few 5$ to 20$ reward certificates!

Bloodborne, Horizon, The last of US, Nier, Nioh, Yakuza 0, ratchet, Uncharted etc...

But I understand if you don't like these kind of games. There are enough great games on PC to keep you busy :)

I don't think most of those are worth investing in the system having played them, no. I like RPGs, action adventure games, etc, I just don't think those are particularly remarkable.

Edit: nier isn't even an exclusive so... What?

DEAL

Super Lucky's Tale is showing up as $79.99 but when you put it in the cart it appears $31.99 after E3 discount.

Most retailers are listing it for $39.99 so the $79.99 was probably a place holder, but for anyone who was interested and waiting for Amazon to drop it, you can order it now - the cart will show the adjusted price instantly.

Wow thanks for posting this! Even if you're on the fence, it's worth it to hold at that price.
