There might be 1 or 2 deals not listed, but thats cause they probably weren't that great. One more thing, there's no fine print saying games must have a >$8 tiv to trade in for the promos, but i assume thats the case.
**UPDATE via pompoco:
"Just hung up the phone....
The fineprint says... ask for details/trade restrictions, so here they are:

1: TIV >=$8
2: Case + Manual

Too bad, I thought i could get rid of my old Mirrors Edge, Dark Sector, Army of Two, etc... but no cigar.... "

wow some pretty nice deals, too bad i dont have any games that I can trade in

Hm, pretty good deal on both EA Active and Ratchet and Clank. Might pick those up soon..

ack.. you have to trade it towards that title.

Interesting deals. I guess EB is trying a new approach with the trade 1 + 4.99.

If I trade my Fallout 3 (40TIV) towards Bioshock.. what happens?

a) I get 35 dollars credit and Bioshock.
b) I pay out 5 dollars and get Bioshock.
c) The world explodes

Answer is b. So not worth to trade high tiv games

You get a credit of whatever the difference b/w bioshock's sticker price and $40.

Anybody know where to pick up games that have $8 TIV for cheap? I'm kinda interested in the ODST deal since I wanna play the single player campaign, but I don't want to pay full retail price for it.

MAYBE you get $40 - ($8 + $4.99) because of the min TIV and $4.99 for bioshock.

I'm interested in Tiger Woods 09. What's the cheapest game I can buy that is valid for the trade in?

Are you sure of that? Typically, trade in promos are that you do not get the TIV of the game you trade-in, the "t1 + X$" is that you must give up the game traded for no credit.
