(Y) Seen that deal and it's an awesome deal especially if you were in the market for BF3.

I was thinking about it but then decided not to because I already have MW3.

Ended up ordering BF3 for PS3 because I received a 25% off promotional code. Too good of a deal to pass by.

Here is how you get it. Some people say it doesn't work anymore but I had no problem fooling it. Registered my birthday as very next day but the code came 3 days later to my e-mail. Wasn't expecting it as some people claimed they stopped sending it out as people were abusing the system. So it was a nice surprise, otherwise I wouldn't have bought it since I already have similar title in MW3. Happy that it only cost me $25 + $3 tax for BF3. :wink:

SSX and FIFA Street are $40 at Best Buy this week. I'm thinking I might get SSX, wait for $20 on Street.

You Don't Know Jack Add-On Packs are 50% off on Xbox Live

Square Enix week (like the 2K week a bit back) on Steam.

Day one is Hitman franchise 75% off. (All three PC games for $6.25)

Also the complete SE collection is $75 until the 26th. (Deus Ex series, Just Cause series, Tomb Raider series, Hitman series, Kane and Lynch series. Dungeon Siege series plus all DLC's and Thief 3.)

This probably means each of those series is going to be one of the days if you just want to pick up a single game for 50-75% off.

Those who can shop @BESTBUY in the States, check this out.

AC Revelations $19.99 (magma hot!)
Batman Arkham City $29.99 (plus get additional $20 off with Gamer's Club Unlocked to bring the total down to $9.99. See below for more details)
Just Dance 3 Bestbuy Exclusive Katy Perry Edition for 360/PS3/Wii $19.99
Need for Speed: The Run for 360/PS3 $20
Rage for 360/PS3 $19.99 (also get additional $15 off with Gamer's Club Unlocked. $4.99)
Final Fantasy 13-2 for 360/PS3 $29.99 (get additonal $15 off with Gamer's Club Unlocked, final price $14.99)
SSX for 360/PS3 $29.99

What's Gamer's Club Unlocked?
It's a $14.95 annual subscription to Best Buy Reward Zone's Gamer loyalty program. With it you get various perks including:
-10% extra trade-in credit for Used video games
-10% off all used games
-12 issues of @Gamer magazine, which is Bestbuy's in-house gaming magazine. This magazine comes with monthly coupons that let you get huge discounts like shown above.

PS: This month's coupons expire April 7th. If you subscribe to Gamer's Club Unlocked in store, they give you the first issue of the magazine right on the spot, which you can then tear out the coupons and use right away when buying the games. You can also buy just the magazine outright for $5/issue. The coupons only work in-store, not for online purchases. Also, US BB gives you gift cards for used video game trade-ins, so you can use the credit to buy anything from BB. Traded in my Dead Rising 2 on this trip to further bring down the total.

-Other exclusive offers.

gamer's club was free before. they used to give you $5 free for preordering certain games and used to give free DLC for preordering others, but now they're getting cheap and going the gamestop route by making you pay to get anything worthwhile

I guess there is a trade off. In Canada, gamer's club is still free but we rarely get deals like that here. Nonetheless the deals look pretty hot if you are a member. But yeah, it's a cheap scheme as you have to buy two to actually make it a hot deal due to the membership fee. At the same time, it's an annual membership so it actually might come in handy in the future again.
