they're not. but when you have two scenarios like this

Persona 5 SE
1. Amazon has it. Not eligible for discounts
2. Best Buy has it. 25x points but not a true discount

and both offer the same price. where would you get the game? the only reason you'd ever wanna get it from Amazon is if the thing sees a freak price drop. the BB points is guaranteed at least.

Order both to be safe and cancel later, the Canadian way!

I've gotta replace a dead PS4. I was waiting to see if a Neo announcement/price was going to come at E3, but it appears that it won't happen.

Any deals on PS4s?

Walmart $380 (500GB base console). Best "deal" currently available

 

[Mercador]

Otherwise, you can have ps4 with 2 controllers for 420 at Costco.

Thanks. Looks like walmart it is then.

I was looking forward to a 30% off preorder sale, but at 20% off, I think I can just wait for price drops on most things.

BB has P5 collectors? link?

 

[Yasumi]

BB has P5 collectors? link?

No, I think he just meant hypothetically.

 

[Tapejara]

Anyone know what's going on with KOF XIV? Amazon has a "Steelbook Launch Edition" and a regular edition SKU, both priced at $79.99. But only the regular edition is eligible for the 20% off promotion. I might just pre-order both and hope the listings get merged closer to launch.

Same, I have a Best Buy one for $48 still...

not yet. I don't see them not putting it up when everyone else has already

The dream is dead

I'm so desperate I'm considering preordering Watch Doge 2 since its 49.99. I grew to hate the last one, should I do it GAF? I promised myself no more Ubi games.

20% can kiss my butt.

Yeah I was caught up in it as well. I had it preordered and then I remembered how disappointed I was with the last one so I cancelled.

I'm just hoping for a miracle at this point. This promo went from 33% to 30% and to now 20%.

33%...on $59.99 games. I still have FF15 preordered for 39.99. They carried it over to PS4 but not TLG. Last year I preordered so much though, I think I still have 6-7 unreleased games.

Lucky, i should have done that.

 

[fooish101]

Yeah I grabbed Persona 5 with the 20% off. Honestly I would of probably even bought it for full price if it wasn't part of the deal. Don't think I'll be picking up anything else. I got enough of a backlog to hold me over until games eventually go on sale for a decent price.

I have both in the cart ready to go. I wanna see if Amazon merges the two as well. That would be sweet.


Watch Amazon add Detroit Become Human and Nioh, only to delist them soon after, then add them again after the promos have ended.

Huh, Persona 5 is still full price for me?

 

[N° 2048]

FFXV is 49.95 on Amazon and I have it in my order from the 30% off deal..
39.52 all in. Holy shit
Totally forgot about lowest price thing.

 

[chrominance]

Okay, sorry for the delay on this, went drinking with departing co-workers. Here's the list of eligible and non-eligible Amazon.ca E3 promo games. I haven't done the Best Buy games yet, and honestly I don't think I want to bother unless there's demand for it. So if you want me to also add the BB ones, let me know. Also, if any games are missing from either list, let me know that too. Note that while the $50 games are missing from the eligible list (because technically they don't qualify for 20% off except MXGP 2 for some reason), their current discount is actually BETTER than 20%.

Nice job Chrominance!

Is their anything we can do to make Amazon more aware of the missing games so that they'll be more likely to actually list them??

 

[N° 2048]

Thanks Chrominance !

Found some games I forgot about.

 

[i-Jest]

Add Vampyr to the list of games I want to show up before this promo ends

Still got my $40 preorder on that <3

Hey Watch Dogs 2 is $50. That's not actually terrible. I might preorder a game or two.

Edit: The $30 off promo is seperate from the 20% and doesn't have the one order max requirement correct. Hopefully I'm reading this right.

 

[lilty]

So I have an existing order of SMT IV: Apocalypse on Amazon. Do I need to cancel that order and make a new one to get the 20% off applied?

 

[joecanada]

Wow 20% off? Not even worth wasting time when I have a game sharing account with friend . We can both play online and I only buy 1/2 games

 

[-epidemic-]

Am I bad at math or is Amazon completely wrong with this order total? (Deus Ex)

Total before tax: CDN$ 63.99
Estimated GST/HST: CDN$ 3.20

Can Sony find out your at different locations via IP and ban?

Re: I Am Setsuna - there's no physical release on PS4 either. Digital or bust.

Question: I preordered the $49.99 Pokemon earlier at Amazon (with a bunch of other stuff) - can I just cancel the Pokemon line items and reorder them, or should I just replace that entire order?

It's not even against their rules as far as I know. All my friends do it

lol. The old 18.99% discount. I wonder what the percentage is if you order 2 games instead of 1...

 

[True Fire]

Will Amazon be adding newly announced games to their list? It's pretty barren right now. I appreciate XV at 50 dollars, but... :/

Man, Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse at $64.99 !!!

Still haven't purchased the Devil Survivor 2 remake lol. ATLUS is shitting the bed here.

 

[krae_man]

Hey World of Final Fantasy PS4 is $20 off and qualifies for the 20%, that's a non crappy deal if you don't already have it on preorder.

 

[N° 2048]

I'm gonna look into this, girlfriend and I would love to do this.

 

[XBP]

I find it really annoying that the PC versions of the 30$ off games are not on sale. Really wanted to get Battlefield 1.

 

[Magnus]

Wow. The $49 Amazon deals are great. Thank you!

 

[krae_man]

Humm should I preorder Watch Dogs 2 on Amazon, or order it on Walmart.com and add Mr noodles for 33 cents to get free shipping. Decisions, decisions...

Don't support Wal-mart and don't eat Mr Noodles.

 

[krae_man]

Don't support Wal-mart and don't eat Mr Noodles.

But what if I don't want to support intentionally delaying shipping for no valid reason(and don't want to pay full price)?

 

[N° 2048]

If Amazon and Walmart are the same price then buy the game from Amazon and return that copy when it arrives.

 

[AtlantiC_CodeX]

Pre-ordered ffXV, thinking of adding maybe battlefield 1 but idk...

Support Walmart so that they see this deal is worth their time and will keep doing it next year. Amazon is really only reactive and matches deals, so we need other retailers to push things forward

Amazon wasn't only reactive, they are offering 20% on everything else!

 

[mdubs]

Amazon wasn't only reactive, they are offering 20% on everything else!

Because they likely planned to match Best Buy's deal from last year but then it turned out that Best Buy changed their offer is what I'd assume happened

 

[Lion Heart]

Here's hoping Wal-Mart makes all the newly announced games 49.99.

 

[mdubs]

This is the big hope really. In an ideal world, Amazon would put them up first eligible for the 20% off, we preorder, then they match the Walmart price (and probably remove the other discount), but all other orders get price protection and the doubl discount.

 

[krae_man]

Walmart's site glitched out on me in the middle of preordering. I got stuck on the credit card processing and not you can't even add the game to your cart.

Amazon it is

 

[Stage On]

Here's hoping Wal-Mart makes all the newly announced games 49.99.

It'd be nice if they did that for some other games like Star ocean 5 as well.

I was considering going Prime this year if Amazon stuck to 30% off. Now I have much less incentive to since I'll won't be ordering as much at only 20%
