~~Update! Now $20 future video game credit ~~

Amazon has Standard versions of MW2(PS3/Xbox360/PC) available for pre-order for $59.99 + $20.00 dollar credit towards future video game purchase.
Good alternative to WalMart if you don't want to pay tax, drive, or what the reason.

Hardened Editions also have a $20 credit.

Prestige Editions have a $10 credit.

Awesome. I already have this preordered. I bet Amazon will drop the price a few bucks on release day too. Anyone who has it preordered will automatically have the difference credited back to them.


better than the WalMart deal to me since no tax and release day delivery (Prime FTW)


will Amazon update preorders already placed or do I need to reorder it?

Amazon's description says "This offer will be extended to all existing pre-orders." So it appears to be OK. Same situation happened when I pre-ordered Uncharted 2 and my $5 bonus came in just fine (which I used on this offer ).

Short answer is YES, you are safe.

Long version (quoting Amazon):

Order Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and get $15 off a future video game purchase. The promotional code will be placed directly into your Amazon.com account within 2 business days after the product ships. Offer valid for a limited time and only when shipped and sold by Amazon.com. This offer will be extended to all existing pre-orders. Amazon reserves the right to change or terminate this promotion at any time. Limit one per household.


I always loved Amazon; with these new game deals (free shipping, no tax here in CA, future credits...) I am loving it even more!!!!


Nice deal. If I weren't so embittered by the whole dedicated server thing for PC I'd be all over this.


Hope this isn't a dumb question, but... Can you use you a Target gift card to get this deal thru Amazon? It looks like they don't offer the $15 credit when choosing "Target" as the seller, but are the gift cards interchangeable?

Answered my own question... NO, you can't use them anywhere on the site.

Thanks Op! I almost jumped on the WalMart deal but decided to wait to see if Amazon would increase their promo. Hopefully Amazon drops the price $3 before release like they've done on a couple of my video game pre-orders in the past.

In contrary, if there weren't so many cheaters/hackers online on the MW1 PC version, i'd get the PC version.


Awesome, then the next day I can get mario bros wii for $15 off.


Too bad ECA Amazon discount is down right now... that would effectively make it <$40!

And right about....now.....is when you realize the PC version is $59.99! It is the first big PC game to test the 59.99 threshold, I am personally holding out until a pricedrop or deal on Steam. I have Modern Warfare on the 360 and World at War on the PC so those will tide me over.

Also, read yesterday that the PC version will not support mods or user made maps, and no dedicated server support! Nuts!

Prime makes us shop more


does anyone know if the gift credit can be used on gaming hardware, i.e. gamepads and wheels, or is the credit usable on games software only? Thanks.


Thanks OP!


OP you should change title to "$15 Video Game Credit". thanks for sharing.

Maybe you're just not finding the right servers. This is a pretty big mistake for them to leave this out. Not just because people are going to boycott the game, but because the mod and clan circles are what fuel these games for years. There will always be cheaters, but with a little effort there are some really stellar servers out there that will not exist with the new MW2.

no mod support? cod4 was really open to it, and there are some great mods out there - why would they change!?!?


I am going to buy an older copy of COD4 and play that first, then in a few months or a year MW2 will be much cheaper.


WARNING TO PC GAMERS:

News is that dedicated server and mod support is dropped for PC. Basically, this is big F-U from the maker to PC users.

+1. It's a shame there won't be any dedicated servers for MW2. Not even for PC release, not sure what IW are thinking...

Had a code saved that I didn't use from a week ago, worked for this today.


Thanks OP! Pre-ordered a copy for delivery by release date. Weird thing is shipping for that is less than 1 or 2-day shipping.


This game rocks! I just reserved my copy.


Now which to pick, 360 or ps3 >_>


Got an email from Amazon.com today stating the $15 credit. Sweet.


I sure as hell won't be buying this game either, not after what Infinity Ward has done to the PC gamers. Signed the petition, too.


I pre-ordered MW2 from Amazon about 2 weeks ago using a $15 credit from my ODST pre-order (and Amazon credited me back $9 once ODST shipped since the price was adjusted). At the time I ordered MW2 there was no $15 offer. I just got an email stating that I will get the $15 credit as well. Pretty awesome - I love Amazon.

Hopefully Amazon matches... again.


Just ordered on Amazon and as I was looking at the page, it switched to $20. I like price wars.

So awesome! This needs to be bumped.


Ordered yesterday and got an email for $15 credit. Just 2 minutes ago, got another email saying I now have a $20 credit. Thank you WalMart for going to war with Amazon.


I love the Price War! It would be crazy to not buy at this price! I was going to buy borderland
