In Canada this weekend, take any Xbox 360 or PS3 game—good, bad or ugly; GOTY or shovelware—trade it in, and obtain a free copy of Assassin’s Creed IV: black flag, call of Duty: Ghosts or battlefield 4. The offer was created by Canada’s Best Buy—repeat, not within the United States—which includes the Futureshop brand. Futureshop is the country’s largest shopper electronics retailer, with 139 stores nationwide, and the trade-in offer is nice for Nintendo 3DS, Wii U and PlayStation Vita games, too.
The deal is supposed to last till Monday, which it won’t, because there is no approach in hell by then that Canadian gamers will not have skeletonized that stockpile sort of a cow walking in the Amazon. Hell, they will have already got. It’s such a ridiculous deal, even once a senior Futureshop representative publically confirmed all of the main points of the provide, folks continuing to pour disbelief into monetary Post’s comments, email and Twitter accounts and even phone lines .
“Still scratching our heads over potential reasons they’d do this,” tweeted Post Arcade contributor Anand Ram.
