My post got cut off. >>

If the disc scratches aren’t reparable, I need to either replace it or replace them with non-damaged copies from Blockbuster video… they rip people off, anyways.

PSU, Splinter Cell DA, and then either COD2 or GRAW.

Does anyone know if the disc scratch caused by accidentally tipping over the 360 while playing is reparable? (Long story, but I get a little excited while I play.

There is also the marketplace points deal I mentioned last week at Best Buy. It is still going. Buy a game and get a 1600 points card for 4.99.

There is also a buy 2 get 1 free USED games/dvds deal at EBGames and Gamestop.

A good week for games if you have some spare cash around.

How long does this offer last? I didn’t see mention of it on the site. I figure if this offer is around until 11-12-06, I’ll be taking FULL advantage of it.

Otherwise known as stealing? Isn’t this illegal? I guess not since you technically did “buy all three” but what’s the grey area of this for anyone who knows legal stuffs?

Man, I’m glad I posted this so I can hear what you guys have to say. I may end up getting THP8, Sonic, and PSU out of this deal

True. Good call. Damn, I guess I’m not actually the smartest man alive.

Following up on what pmp said, you could go buy 2 60 dollar games, get the 3rd one for free. Return them all to wal mart or something.(Say you bought them, but now your system is broke. You need the money to repair it.) Use the store credit, or go elsewhere to reserve 3 games you want!

Excludes pre-orders? HA!

If you want a game that isn’t out yet, buy 2 games you do want, and get 1 you don’t want for free. When the game you want is released, take back the one you got for free and exchange it, claiming it was a gift or whatever. Then you get the game that wasn’t out at the time for free

That’s my work-around for beating the “excludes pre-orders” system.

I did this a few years ago, and it worked like a dream. Just make sure you aren’t an idiot and don’t open the one you don’t want. And if they give you any grief, just remember: THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.

Gotta agree. Those in the US think they are being overcharged at $60 a game when over here it’s £50 ($90) and then they get offers that make it even cheaper. Screw region locking, they need to do away with it so the consumer can get the best value they can.
