It's true. Beginning Saturday, November 9 until close of business on Monday, November 11, 2013, Future Shop stores across the country are offering free copies on three of this season's hottest current generation console titles: [B]Assassin's Creed IV[/B] [B]Battlefield 4[/B] [B]Call of Duty: Ghosts[/B] Here's how it works: Trade ANY one game on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, WiiU, PS Vita or Nintendo 3DS and get a FREE copy of Assassin's Creed IV, Battlefield 4 or Call of Duty: Ghosts (Xbox 360, PS3 WiiU versions only, excludes next generation consoles - PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Regular $59.99 versions only). That's right, bring-in any game title on the present-gen console or handheld and you get [B]one[/B] of three of the holiday's hottest titles for free. [B]Limit one title per customer per day[/B] - games must include cases - and no duplicates accepted. Of course there some legal limitations in some markets. Future Shop stores in Nanaimo, Kelowna, Manitoba, Vaughan and Richmond Hill are excluded due to local trade in laws.

You kind of cut off a key sentence, there. [quote]Of course there some legal limitations in some markets. Future Shop stores in Nanaimo, Kelowna, Manitoba, Vaughan and Richmond Hill are excluded due to local trade in laws.[/quote] I live in an excluded market. Fuck. :v: I mean, I didn't really give much of a shit about any of these, but I've got at least one 360 game I don't care about anymore that I'd trade in to give AC or BF a try because hey, this is an insane deal. But nope.
What the fuck that's ridiculously good
I bet one has to camp in front of the shop to be able to make use of this offer before the games sell out.
Oh hey what a great deal can't wait too... oh yeah there's no Future Shop or Best Buy in my area :suicide:
I called them and you have to trade any used game that still worth 59,99$ new...
For once, I know how it feels to be in an excluded market for such an amazing offer.
[QUOTE=insistent;42803153]I called them and you have to trade any used game that still worth 59,99$ new...[/QUOTE] Yeah, the store manager is bullshitting you. It specifically states in the articles that you can trade in a 4 year old game, one of the examples they used was [b]NHL 2008[/b] and walk out with BF4. Print off the articles and bring it to the store and talk to the manager about it.

[QUOTE=insistent;42803153]I called them and you have to trade any used game that still worth 59,99$ new...[/QUOTE] Some stores are pulling that bullshit, but that's not part of the deal. Find a Vita game that retails for $59.99 today. From the FS forums (linked in the OP): [quote]Is there a minimum trade-in value needed for my game to be eligible? [B]No[/B][/quote] (emphasis in the original)
So if you wanted to keep a game, couldn't you just trade in a game and pick up an old one for a few dollars, basically getting one of the three for ~$5 or so?
Further proving I live in the best country
So I can buy a 5 dollar game, open it, and then trade it back? So much exploitation in this.
[QUOTE=Ogopogo;42803219]So if you wanted to keep a game, couldn't you just trade in a game and pick up an old one for a few dollars, basically getting one of the three for ~$5 or so?[/QUOTE] You could walk into Future Shop with nothing in your hands, go to the clearance games bin and pick out an Xbox 360 copy of [URL="http://www.futureshop.ca/en-ca/product/nfl-tour-xbox-360/10097624.aspx"]NFL Tour[/URL] and buy it for $5, walk outside, unwrap it and open it, and then walk back in and trade it in for a copy of Ghosts. You just bought yourself a copy of Ghosts for $4.97 + tax, buddy. :v: Fuck, ever so slightly beaten. :v: It's literally worth it for me to take two 360 games with me and go visit a friend out of town for the night, and make a trip to their local FS each day.

HAH! [b]Fuck YOU Kelowna![/b] Kamloops pleb master race.
The best deal I ever came across was in Gamestop on accident. They usually have this deal "Trade in two games and get a new game, (The Last of Us in my case) for 99 SEK" (Gamestop is overpriced like hell and games cost up to 800 SEK which is roughly $120 while there are other places that sell for much less) Anyway, with The Last of Us the changed that temporarily to trade in one game and pay 99 SEK. I checked their list of eligable games and found a really cheap little big planet game for the vita that cost 80 SEK or something. I bought that, and right on the spot I traded it in and paid an additional 99 crowns and walked out with the Last of Us (on release) paying only 180 crowns which is roughly $27. :v: I don't think they will ever do that mistake again. Everybody was doing it. Hell the guy working said "I gotta do this myself".
[QUOTE=Explosions;42803310]..... I won't get angry. I won't get angry.[/QUOTE] 95% of great deals are from usa, its the first time ive seen anything like this in canada, not only about video games, performance parts for my dirt bike is nearly double the price in canada.
I wanna move to Canada so bad :(
Oh good thing i traded in all my games to gamestop.....
Damn, have I still got a shitty game for the PS3 lying around?
I FUCKING HATE THIS PROVINCE
that's a fucking insane deal
