Hereā€™s how it works. On Saturday, Sunday and Monday, simply take in a used game for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 or the Wii U (Wii games arenā€™t eligible for the promotion) and you can walk out with one of those three titles without spending another dime. This offer is only for the standard $59.99 versions of the games, so no special editions.

The game you take home can be for any of the current generation system. So, for example, you could bring an Xbox 360 game from four years ago and walk out with a PlayStation 3 version of Call of Duty: Ghosts.

Bring in a copy of the first Assassinā€™s Creed for the Xbox 360, you can take homeAssassinā€™s Creed IV . Bring in a copy of NHL 10 for the PlayStation 3, walk out with Call of Duty: Ghosts.

As you might expect, the offer isnā€™t valid on next generation games, so you canā€™t trade inAssassinā€™s Creed II and walk out with one of the games for the Xbox One or PlayStation 4.

Now for the fine print: Thereā€™s a limit of one free game per customer, per day. This means you canā€™t walk in with three used games and walk out with all three games being offered.

However, from what we understand, thereā€™s nothing stopping you from going to a different Future Shop or Best Buy location on each of the three days and trading one game per day to collect each of the three games being offered.

Weā€™re also told that you can bring in any game to trade, provided it still works and has the original jewel case.

The offer is only available in Canada. There are a handful of Future Shop locations that are not participating in the promotion, due to what the company calls ā€œlocal laws on trade-ins.ā€ The stores not participating in the promotion are located in Nanaimo, Kelowna, Vaughan, St. James, Garden City, Pembina and Richmond Hill.

I assume current gen (360/PS3) versions of those games aren't selling so hot with people holding off for next gen.
 
Wish this was happening in the U. S. of A as well. That's a crazy good deal.
 
Stores haven't even closed yet but...

jk.
 
Went to two stores today and got COD Ghosts and Battlefield 4 for the PlayStation 3 which I'm gonna use in the $10 PS4 upgrade program. I was planning on going all digital but hey a great fuking deal is a great fuking deal.
Thinking of going tomorrow morning to get Ass Creed.
 
Both the BB/FS in my town was excluded from the deal...apparently corporate didn't get the memo that the trade-in bylaw restriction was lifted almost a year ago :smash:

Nice. Was only able to get COD:G and AC4, wanted BF4 but couldn't get it anywhere.
 
Went back today and grabbed a copy of Wii U Ass Creed... with a plan in mind as I don't even own a Wii. I took PS3 Ghosts and the Wii U game to EB games as they were eligable for the trade 2 get $60 credit deal.
So for the price of two hours of my time, 3 old titles (combined trade in value of a bag of M&Ms) and $10 in gas I now have Battlefield 4 and Killzone SF for PS4.
Combine that with the B2G3 E3 preorder deal and I practically got 3 next gen tiles for free.
WINNING!

Did they allow you to trade in two copies of the same game for the $60 credit deal?
