Those who are looking to pick this game up next week (which I'm guessing is a LOT of people, seeing as how it's THE game to have, and it's received near perfect reviews on multiple gaming sites), if you buy it from ToysRUs, they will give you a $25 GiftCard for FREE!

Check it out

How long is this for?

If I can still do it tomorrow, I want to. That game got a freakin 9.7 on IGN.

Edit Oh, wait. This Tuesday. Crap, I'm gonna be in school, no wait, I don't have classes on Tuesday. Sweeeeeeeeeet.

I'm pretty sure it's not a one day thing. I think its for all of next week. But, be prepared for them to sell out their initial shipment within minutes, and any shipment thereafter will probably go within hours. It's all about either getting their early on release date, or getting lucky on later shipments.

Good luck everyone. I played the demo of this game at my local WalMart SuperCenter... it's awesome!

could you buy this and then take the game back and still keep the giftcard?

I'm pretty sure that Toys R' Us would refund you the price of the game minus the $25, because the receipt shows you got a $25 promotional giftcard with the purchase of the game.

Now, you could take the game back to, say, Walmart and get a Walmart giftcard and then go get another game that you might would want more, and still be able to hold onto the $25 card from TRU.

Well I bought one as a present, what if that person took it back with the gift receipt I got (sigh) I don't want them to be stiffed on it. I don't particularly care for taking back items to someplace I didn't purchase them from, it feels like stealing.

13-11-2007 11:36:00

Yeah, I'm with you. That's a good question about the game being a present. I'm guessing if the person wants to take back the game, they would give them a giftcard for the full amount, and then they can use that to purchase something else. Not sure.

the GC will show up on the gift receipt... just return it to walmart... they go just put it on the shelf and sell it for full price... you're not stealing anything. But I can't wait to get home and play mario galxy

Do they issue a WalliMart Gift Card if you don't want to buy another game?

I usually swap for a different game but i'm sure they would just give you store credit

Thanks, I'm having buyers remorse now for buying two because I really want to get my dad Resident Evil for the Wii instead.

Yeah, the Walmart is the place to go. Just say you got it as a gift and really wanted a different game. They'd swap it out for Resident Evil UC no problem! D

Wish that was on Kotaku so the Kotkites could take over their forum. Landover Baptist Church is full off crazy over zealous Christians. I'm agnostic and their fervor for God makes me never WANT to be a Christian. LOL if you are banned from their forum you are apparently damned to hell.

That forum is hilarious. Those are the people I think God looks down upon because they tarnish his name. This topic is hilarious "Jesus kills boy for playing Wii" because Jesus hates the Wii SO much he will kill you if you play it, but if you fondle the boy who plays the Wii, you can live a long lasting life.

edit quoting from there

[quote6d1ea9f340]Look, I'm not going to answer every single question and claim that has been made in this thread, I'm just going to stick with the FACTS. Sound good? Okay, here are the FACTS

FACT In the past 8 years, Video gaming, especially Nintendo gaming, has exploded. Video games now outsell movies, while games are played for scores of hours while few movies are longer than 2.

FACT In the past 8 years, homosexuality and catholocism has increased, unemployment has, crime has increased, abortions have increased, God has punished New York and New Orleans, a new generation of soldiers raised on video games are too soft, decadent and cowardly to subdue a nation that we conquered in DAYS back in 1992...

The economy is in a mess and poverty is up, while nations that are sensible enough to be video-game free, like Iran and North Korea, are becoming so powerful that America will only be saved by the most desperate measures....

And you're telling me this is all a coincidence? You "coincidence theorists" are really a wacky bunch, you know that?[/quote6d1ea9f340]


and the guy also claims that japan wants to destroy the ''Greatest Nation on Earth'' (aka USA i presume....)
