should i use my ea coupon on this?

by **Abctest123** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:07 am

ok, i registered an account with the eastore i think about a year ago or so and every now and then, they give you a coupon about $15 (USD i think) or so and last time i got it, i used it for live 2005. They usually have free shipping for the game if you pre-order. I just recently got another coupon for another $15. Currently, you can preorder it until sept 30 and get free shipping. Shipping is about $6 USD. That means im paying about $40 USD for the game. Heres the problem. Im not sure if i should buy it now, and then get free shipping and buy it for $40 USD (anyone know how much this is in canadian dollars?) and use the ea coupon on something like burnout revenge (i liked burnout 3 a hella lot) OR wait until they stop the promotion, then when its back to normal price plus shipping, use my $15 coupon (because i save more than just the $6 shipping saving and i might not have enough for Burnout revenge if i do the first option) OR just dont use my coupon on NBA LIVE 06, buy it in a canadian gamestore, and use my ea coupon on burnout revenge? Any suggestions are welcome.

By the way, wasnt it like only $40 canadian last year? I went to the best buy site, they have live 06 for $49.99 on the gamecube, and $59.99 for xbox, but didnt have it listed for ps2, so i would assume it was the same as xbox. Damn bastards at ea raising it back to the original price

does it fucking matter?

you get $15 off now matter which game you use it on

actually yes it does, one of the three options, i get savings for both this and burnout revenge. the other options only include me getting savings on one game

by **Malfa** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:21 am

Save on both then?

by **Abctest123** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:23 am

i know it sounds obvious to choose the save on both option but the problem for this one is will i have enough to get both. probably shouldnt have added that option i think.

by **Malfa** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:24 am

If you won't have enough then get one.

by **Abctest123** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:25 am

then what would you choose if i could only afford one, NBA live or Burnout Revenge?

by **Laxation** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:40 am

wtf do you think? this is a forum for nba live!!! IDIOT

Well you are the only idiot here. He asks a valid question and you flame him for it. I would save on both, because Revenge is getting amazing reviews, and Live is, well, Live.

he asks a question which is dam obvious

you can a)save on both games or b) save on one game or c) buy live or revenge
a) he cant afford both games
b) this is then the obvious answer
c) this is a live forum - for people who love live, not burnout, what does he expect the answer to be here

For the better game? Not all of us are biased fanboys with ADD.

by **Laxation** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:55 am

ADD? wtf

that is the stupidest thing ive ever fucking heard, especially for an insult... and you were saying theres only one idiot on this board?

by **Fitzy** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:57 am

ADD= Attention Deficit Disorder

by **The Other Kevin** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 11:58 am

Where did I say that? I said that we are not all biased twords Live all the time.............................

Calm down girls. I suggest hiring Live and Burnout to see which one you prefer.

by **The Other Kevin** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 12:10 pm

Hiring them? I'd like to interview them then. :lol:

Hiring = Renting.

Maybe my Aussie slang is weak................

by **Abctest123** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 3:56 pm

sorry for the misunderstanding people, maybe i should reword it, since i now realize my first question was terribly worded. Should i use my ea coupon on this or burnout revenge? i know this is a live board but im asking because i want to see if this is worth buying and also for people that have also played burnout to see if they feel which of the two is more worth it. sorry to laxation, the other kevin for startin a flame war with my question.

We can't make this decision for you. It's what you like better..

by **bludgeon** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 4:41 pm

You like burnout revenge better so get it
then wait till the promotion is stopped and get Live (Y)

by **Fitzy** on Sun Sep 25, 2005 4:44 pm
