Yup, got one too. I know Amazon.com does this kind of thing regularly so it's not a HUGE deal, but nice to see Canadian retailers doing it too.

I didn't get one :( I preordered the CE with the tsilon free game code so maybe that's why?

Maybe. I used the 10% off a preorder code which I think came from Tsilon too and I still got my code.

So I work for Bell (please, no photos) and I get 45% percent off white caps tickets (middle fancy section purple/blue) and aqua (behind the nets and close to the outsiders) if any gaffer is interested in the remaining home games I can probably help with tickets. I get various other discounts but none as good as this one.

This isn't the "compensation code" but rather a promotion they were offering for people who purchased the game upon release or pre-ordered. I actually thought it was only in-store, but apparently not. I got the code too. Hell of a lot better than the in-store version actually, since you can return the game but keep the code (as opposed to having to present your receipt).

I hope I can use the code for in-store pickup orders. There are a couple $19.99 games I have in mind, but I don't wanna pay shipping!

So is there really no Best Buy online sale happening for video games this weekend? Usually they do a sale every long weekend, but the only thing I see is their yellow tag event, which doesn't seem to include games.

Anyone know if the stuff in transit at Canada Post moves during the weekend? I'm curious if Dragon's Dogma will be here for the release date or not.

Also, not sure if this is much of a "deal" but I saw that the Futureshop in Dartmouth Crossing (NS) had Resonance of Fate used for $7.99, the cheapest I've seen it so far.

There was still another 3-4 copies left after I picked up one for myself.

Haha you remember that topic. Yeah I've been with bell in loyalty/retention in the call center for the last 6 months. It sounds like an awful job but its actually a lot of fun. It's really great because I save people absurd amounts of money, makes me feel like I'm doing some good in the world, even if on a limited scale. Not always perfect but satisfying most of the time. Full time, full benefits and lots of fringe bonuses make it a pretty good start.

I can't believe Splinter Cell is a qualifier, that's crazy. I'll see if I can manage it.

I think what I'm going to do is order Splinter Cell online from BB tonight when they have their 10% off sale (along with some stuffer to return later for free shipping). $18 for MTO? I'm in!

Lol, if it were any other Nintendo game, I so would do that, but I'm just not enough of a tennis or Mario fan to pay the $18 plus tax. Oh well, at least I got my niece some nice gifts for her birthday at the online sale.

Can it still be sealed, or does it has to be open? Just in case...

Yeah, I was wondering that too. I've never done any trade in deals at Future Shop before, but a local mom n' pop nearby has Splinter Cell Trilogy HD for 20 bucks and I could swing by tomorrow and pick it up and then head to Future Shop.

I'm just worried that if Future Shop takes the game of the eligible trade list and I've already taken off the plastic that I won't be able to get my money back.

Add Lego Star Wars III for Wii @ $5 at The Source, just grabbed it. My first Lego game in preparation for Lego City Stories for Wii U! :D

It's fun so far. The force is difficult to use because so many things around you are grab-able, and some hints are too vague or don't tell you stuff at all. Also it's hard to read some new hints when you're fighting dozens of enemies.

A clearance game at The Source might work too, just as long as you get a recent one for uber cheap.

Wonder how recent the game has to be.

I might trade in Lego Star Wars III for it then! LOL XD

I probably have another quite recent or Most Wanted game I can give up.

Has to be open, at least in my experience.

But they don't revise the lists during the day, so buy Splinter Cell, check the morning of the day you want to trade it in, and if it's still on the list bust that sucker open and get in there.

I'll probably buy another copy for myself to trade in, I did the same thing for Mortal Kombat Vita, was too tempting.

I don't see why it matters whether it's open, since you can always just wait to open it once you're at the store and they confirm it's still an eligible title. I'm sure they just need to confirm the game is actually in there -- it's not like they care whether you ever played it.

Splinter Cell traded-in.

weeeeeeeee :D


amusingly, when I placed the order for Splinter Cell, the free shipping stuffer $9 copy of Bulletstorm they sent me (from Best Buy online) had a Future Shop sticker on it. The CSR almost tried to dispute that I bought it from BB haha

No hassles returning it though. The employees at the BB and FS stores in Markham have generally been quite amenable, in contrast to the horror stories I often hear.

Ditto. Picked up a copy of Splinter Cell from EB before my dentist appointment and traded it towards Mario Tennis afterwards.

I have a feeling I also traded in a copy of the Splinter Cell trilogy to get Mortal Kombat Vita the other week and the same guy rang me through as well.

I wonder how long it'll stay on their list.

So did I YAY! :D

Looked everywhere and finally found one BB that had it, I also got Samurai Warriors Chronicles (1st Warriors game get!) for $15 after trading in some junk.

The 25th is my Birthday (I'll be 23), and my family is refusing to get me any games, so these are my Birthday gifts to me! :)
