Look once at this poster and it’ll seem obvious. Buy something expensive, get two of something cheaper for free.
By the second look you see the mistake.
By the third look you notice the bad maths, which makes it impossible to actually make good on the offer.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 9:09 AMOther than offering 2 different gran turismo versions which does seem a bit redundant, i don’t see the problem. Is it the date? Because you can tell they are just using the american date system month/day. 1st of feb to 31 of march. Whats the big error?

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 9:54 AMIf pick the GT games, you’d only be getting 1 game.
If you pick GT and the Ico/SoTC, you’d be getting 3 games.
I think thats the solution to this puzzle.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 10:09 AMI am confused, aside from the two version of GT it all seems legit and makes perfect sense.
On first look it seemed legit
on second look i noticed no mistake. deal valid 1st feb to 31st march.
and at 3rd look I come to the conclusion that you must be drunk Luke…
You are aware that GameStop, being American and all, use the americandate format? you know, MM/DD/YY…

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 9:47 AMNo, all of those games are 3D compatible, even if two of them are the same game.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 9:49 AMGran Turismo 5 can be played in 3D after updates. And if you notice carefully, the box says 3D compatible. Should check carefully mate :P

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 10:29 AMIs the fail that SotC and Ico Collection gives your two games in itself? Meaning that if you got that, you’d have your two games, meaning that you really only have two options, taking two copies of GT5 or taking the Collection?
Okay I’m lost, where’s the math fail?

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 11:07 AMLuke would never address his articles after posting. Certainly not on the AU site, at least.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 12:13 PM… this article makes no damn sense. Its probably a typo (pico?), or they have 2 versions of GT just in case one runs out. Who cares.

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 2:51 PMIs it just that there isn’t really a choice? There are only two different title to choose from?
