I preordered on amazon for $35, it was delivered on tuesday when it came out.
I'm buying the PS3 version tomorrow for $40. Then going to link it with the Steam copy it comes with and trade the PS3 copy in to Amazon for $28. Portal 2 for $12, thank you!
You have to activate it through PSN right? Is PSN still down?
"Hello, my name is Kaotik! I like to completely abuse generous offers from nice companies. They're trying to be nice to me? HAHA, big mistake! I'm going to screw them AND the schmuck that buys my returned code, the losers.
I am Kaotik, see me be an ass then brag about it."
The trade in amount is for the PS3 game only so go cry me a river.
Go try and lay your guilt on someone else, shit ain't going to work here. Between the size of my Steam library and I advertise their sales on these forums making people aware of deals they would have otherwise missed, I don't feel guilty, they got the money from the retailer already for that copy and you damn well better believe they have anticipated that people would do exactly what I am doing anyways and still went ahead with it.
I wasn't crying, I was mocking.
Still, I did check and saw that Amazon does appear to resell returned copies as "Used" with the disclaimer that DLC may have been redeemed, so it's nice that the subsequent buyer doesn't get burned.
Games drop like rocks now, buying new doesn't make sense unless its some popular multiplayer game that holds its value. Gonna wait for a $5 steam sale.

WTF? Stop being an ass. Amazon offers the trade in. Kaotik is only taking advantage of what is offered. He's smart, not a loser. get off your high horse.

Are you being purposefully dense? He didn't say he was returning it, he said he was trading it in AS used.
I guess not too many people were keen to pay USD$50 for 4-6 hours of gameplay. I know I'm waiting for better prices, despite loving Portal very much.
