Best Buy Deal of the Day (6/6) has the MLB/NBA 2K13 Combo Pack for $59.99 (both for 360 and PS3).

Too bad I bought mine back in March, and can't possibly qualify for a price-matching.

MLB2k13 will be on sale for $39.99 at Best Buy from 6/9 - 6/15.

Still $20 too high.

I'll throw this in the Batman Origins thread too, but if you pre-order Batman Origins from Newegg.com, and use the code EMCXPXN26 at check out, they take $10 off and it's only $49.99.

Question about the best buy reward zone stuff:

I signed up a in like September of last year, and made a couple purchases. I see where my earned points coming in, but on 2 separate occasions I got something called issued certs. The first time it deducted 1000 points from my total, and the second time it deducted 250 points. Now I'm only left with 52 current points, and I have not made any transactions, or even looked at my reward zone stuff since like a month after I signed up. Why did I get deducted points, and do I need to contact Best Buy?

Service looks BS to me right now.

By default, anytime you have 250 points in your account, you receive a five dollar reward zone certificate to us at Best Buy. If you log in to your account, it should show you having a few certs to print.

Nope, says I have 0 certs.

They expire as well. Maybe call Best Buy and see.

Re: Official Gaming Deals Thread

^ Ah, that explains it. Definitely BS then. I went ahead and changed the certs to 1,000 points instead so it'll take longer for them to expire.

Gamefly has Bioshock/Bioshock 2 bundle PC DL for $5. I'm not much of a FPS fan. Worth it?


Addendum: found out after the fact that it requires using the GF client and activating an account to DL Bioshock 1.

Addendum2: dammit.... you need either an Xbox 360 controller or a Logitech dual...... JoytoKey doesn't seem to be helping much with this one.

If you're a Premier Silver member, you can infinitely bank points. I have $120 waiting to be used haha.

This isn't a "deal" but Fable 3 is free on Xbox Live for gold members right now.

From the looks of it's a glitch because we all know Microsoft is too greedy to be giving games away

Which is why you must always take what M$ gives. Lol even if you play it for 5 min and delete it. I've never played any of the 3 so I'll give this a shot.

Re: Official Gaming Deals Thread

OK, im trying to understand how this Best Buy membership thing works because you guys got me interested in joining.

if i were to join now, and then pre-order a game. i would get $20 off of my next purchase and/or pre-order or would i get the discount off the game im preordering now?
