I thought you could only get 3 years of GCU on your account. Maybe that was a rule for something else?

Ah well, I'm good with the EA Play 12 month glitch that gave 1 year GCU for 1 year EA ($22). Have 3 years and will wait for future deals.

Any good 1440p, 144hz , gaming monitors that are priced like $350 or less?

There is a cheaper version of the LG monitor - it's the one I got after a lot of research and it's amazing. They use the same panel and the only difference is the wide colour gamut. That said if the difference was only $50 at the time I'd probably go for the one you linked.

To anyone who bought more than one Game Pass Ultimate 3-month code from Best Buy, is it letting you redeem more than one? I got 3 codes and after the first one, it throws an error for the other two.

Does anyone know if AC:Valhalla will go on sale or at least the likelihood of that happening? There's not too much I'm after but I'd like to play that over Christmas.

Careful, eARC with external sources sometimes gives you a horrible audio delay.

I love my Denon x3300w that I'm replacing with a x4700h this week, and I've never experienced audio delay with eArc using the new consoles and an LG C9. Maybe he will have good luck too!

anyway, yes I highly recommend Denon. Their receivers have been nothing but wonderful.

I take the $1 upgrade "trick" on GPU still works? You just buy XBL gold, redeem it and the Xbox should give you an offer to upgrade to GPU for $1 right?

BasilZero glad to hear you got your Switch! What is the first game you are playing?

Havent decided yet but its probably gonna be either Pokemon Sword or Super Mario Odyssey.


(I'll test it out today with all the games a bit but I'm gonna wait until I get my pro controller and Super Mario odyssey both which will come in 3 days).


I still have two more games to come that I ordered (Hyrule Warriors def edition and Super Mario Odyssey) so.. which that will make 20 switch games (19 physical and 1 digital) so I should be good for awhile lol.

Any recommendations for uhd Blu-ray's that are on sale? Just want to pick something up to check out the quality since people rave about it when comparing to 4k streams.

Thinking of blade runner 2049 since I'm not sure if anything else I'd watch more than once.
Well it's not going to be on sale at a reduced price but the LOTR complete set finally comes out in 4K in December 1st and that's definitely re watchable.

Wtf amazon ran out of GPU 3 month subs..

I'm not surprised, especially since they didn't impose any limits. Best Buy still has digital and physical availability on it, although it seems to be a limit of 3 there. Walmart will have it up on Wednesday too.

I thought you could only get 3 years of GCU on your account. Maybe that was a rule for something else?

Ah well, I'm good with the EA Play 12 month glitch that gave 1 year GCU for 1 year EA ($22). Have 3 years and will wait for future deals.

You can only have 3 years the last I saw. Personally, I'm just stocking up on codes to redeem later.

Has target listed their game sales yet!

Yep, Target is up and the spreadsheet has been updated with all the deals not shown in their ad.

To anyone who bought more than one Game Pass Ultimate 3-month code from Best Buy, is it letting you redeem more than one? I got 3 codes and after the first one, it throws an error for the other two.

Are you sure you're not hitting the 3 year limit allowed on your account? If so that's troubling to hear.

Does anyone know if AC:Valhalla will go on sale or at least the likelihood of that happening? There's not too much I'm after but I'd like to play that over Christmas.

It'll be on sale for $47.99 at GameStop. It however has been on sale for the last two weeks at Target for $40 but that ended last night.


Best Buy has it for $22.99 for 3 months. Walmart will have it on Wednesday for the same price. GameStop will sell it for $19.99 but physical cards only and limit 1. Amazon had it at $22.99 but seems to be out of codes right now. No idea if they'll have more available.

I thought minecraft dungeons switch was going to be $15? Do I need to wait for it to drop another $5?

Got both Monster Hunter World Iceborn Master Edition and Nier Automata Game of the Yorha Edition from Best Buy. With Person 5 Royal last week, that's my Black Friday pick ups done.

Ugh, that means no free shipping.

Unless you're talking about GameStop, Best Buy and Walmart will sell you a digital code that they'll e-mail you. No need to ship. If you're talking about Best Buy's physical card, you can get around the shipping minimum by ordering something for in store pickup that will bring you over the minimum and then cancel that order so you get free shipping on the item you want.

I got DBZ: Kakarot from Target for $15.

I'm thinking about getting Watch Dogs: Legions at BestBuy but I have a feeling it will drop even more in a month or so.
