ive just checked bestbuy and future shop both have the "price match guarantee" but they both say it must be a Canadian retailer. now toysrus is technically a retailer in Canada but its not the Canadians with the sale...maybe you could trick someone who was sleeping on the day job into verifying the price on the .com instead of .ca website(they have to verify the sale is listed at this price before they match it and cut 10% off) actually now that i think about it, what if you got a price quote from one retailer (and they beat it by 10%) then you take that quote to the other retailer...they are both required to take 10% off and just keep doing that...maybe get the game for free??? | ||

Seriously though, wish I was in NA for this deal. Would definitely be worth picking up a few copies for friends and the sorts. | ||

Why the need to insult? His comment says those are review comments, does that make them key selling points? And "good sound" as well as "graphics" are subjective. But you go buy your CD, something that helps you rid some anger perhaps? | ||

Apparently the higher-ups at Best Buy got wind of our methods and put some bullshit new policy in place. I second this. Just left Best Buy after almost having the cashier give the $9.98 price but she was like "wow thats a deal, let me call someone". The manager said he heard they were doing this today but they don't price match from ToysRus.COM, just Toys R Us retail stores. Another manager came over and said they don't match clearance prices, just sales prices. I thought for sure my "Ok, then I'll take my money to Toys R Us" line would get them to just do it but they were fine with letting me walk out. Went over to Toys R Us and they have 0 PC games in the store. Attempted to get Walmart to price match and they won't do online ads, its gotta be an actual ad from the store. Oh well, I missed a great deal, is what it is. To bad its all out of stock online :/ Good luck at your local stores. | ||

People should grab all these screens of receipts as proof that Best Buys are doing it. There's another one here thats pretty clear and easy to read. You could use it a leverage when arguing with one of the more stubborn stores. | ||
