So my mom told me that if i got an all "A's" in my classes this semester she would buy me a couple of video games. My biggest problem was the algebra 2 PAP. I had an 88 in that class and that would mean i would have score pretty high on the exam to bump it up to an A. Well I succeeded by .1 of a point!!!!!I have all A's and now i can buy a couple of game (approx $100 worth). So I was thinking i can do that buy 2 get one free sale at best buy next week. Maybe i could pick up fable 3, new vegas and maybe dragon age origins pack. Or i can go the amazon route and buy a bunch of old games i don't have yet like yakuza 3($30), valkyria chronickles($20), demons souls($30), and maybe like 2 more. So do you guys have any suggestions?

How do you know of this deal already?!?!? And is the deal for US only or will be in Canada as well????

highly doubt it. we never get those deals lol. usually around christmas we do though. I know this week you can pick up two greatest hits games for 40 bucks. not the greatest but decent.

@ OP,
congrats on the A's but as someone mentioned, seriously, you're 19 lol. try and get some influx of cash to buy your own games. trading off good grades for presents is more of an elementary school thing. i'd tell my 19 yr old son to get A's for his own sake. Not to say my parents don't surprise me with a lil something once in a while, but don't go asking for it.

Anyway, amazon would prob. be your best bet here. (well you can prob get those games at those prices even in-store though). No need to pay full price when you've got quality games (the ones you mentioned are all great) still to play

you sly dog you.. lol

i mean, sly cooper. you should save up for that one lol.

and keep up the good school work. it'll pay off in the end. I've always done well in school but I've always been of the opinion that your grades aren't so important once you're in the work field. But in university now, looking for internships, i've learned ppl give you the benefit of the doubt simply because of your grades. Free passes and scholarships for me!! lol

EDIT: lol i noticed you changed your age on your profile

Based on how the game looks like it's about to turn out, go with any option that sees Fable 3 in your hands as soon as humanly possible.
