Thank you for sticking up for me.  Maybe it's just a thing where people aren't grasping that I understand the bundle is a great deal, and that I of course understand that a gift card can be used for lots of things, so there's no question it's a steal.  My point is only that you can't go around saying the bundle is $299 when it's not.  Like you said, there's been plenty of other similar deals in the past, and I don't recall people making threads about it, and twisting the title to make the deal appear less expensive than it really was.  If my debit card is getting charged $329, then the bundle is $329.  

The sad irony in all of this is that I may in fact be purchasing that bundle next week.  Though, note I will be spending $329, not $299.  As that is the actual cost of the bundle.  :)

Yeah no problem :)

Enjoy your new console.

Honestly couldn't care less what you think.  There's no debate here at all, really.  $329 is $329, doesn't matter what value a gift card has. 

Don't listen to those guys.  I find it very easy to understand that when something is priced at $329, I am going to hand over $329 to the store no matter what to receive that item.  Its also funny that when there were previous bundles where there were free games included, people weren't going around shouting that the bundle was essentially some lower price.  Why stop at saying that the bundle is only $299 when you can sell the game for 60 dollars too making it only $239?  

I guess me and you view things more logically.  Who knows....

It's $299. Stop fooling yourself.



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

Great deal, but absolutely nothing will ever convince me to go to a retail store on Black Friday. I'm just gonna sit at home and eat Thanksgiving leftovers.

Lol same, I'll gladly just order online and avoid getting trampled on. 


will we get some good footage of people running like bulls at a red rag at various stores around the US?
