Here's a deal too good to pass up. Toys R Us is bringing back their Buy 2 Games Get 1 Free campaign. It starts today and runs all week long. With so many great games out, it's time to start loading up!
We thought we'd pass along three tips to getting the most bang for your buck!
1. Buy the newest games. You can often times buy games older than 90 days used online for $40. This week alone we have Brutal Legend and Uncharted 2 coming out on Tuesday, so you may want to hold off to then. Or you can get your hands on hot games that just came out:
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Halo: ODST (which we covered here on the site)
NBA Live 10
The Beatles: Rock Band
Guitar Hero 5
Dead Space: Extraction
Muramasa: The Demon Blade
Aion
Champions Online
Metroid Prime Trilogy
All these games are brand spanking new and will likely continue to sell at full price all the way through the holiday season because they are hot.
2. If you mix and match differently priced games, the one game you get for free is the CHEAPEST one you buy. So if you buy two console games at $60.00, and then pick up Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story for , then you are only really saving $35.00. You're much better off buying 2 games priced at $60, and getting a free $60 game. Or buy two DS games for $35.00, and get another DS game for for free.
3. Gaming peripherals are also part of the deal! Now is a great time to expand the number of controllers you have so that you can invite 3 of your imaginary friends over to play!
4. What if you want to buy a game that isn't out yet? In theory you can do that. Toys R Us has a return policy so that if you buy a game today, you can trade it back in within 45 days, as long as you don't open the game and save the receipt. HOWEVER, make sure that the one game you want to trade back is marked in your receipt with the FULL PRICE, and not marked as one of your free games.
You may want to hold out for these games, all of which are coming out in the next 45 days.
