Were you one of the thousands of people that bought a new PS3 bundle on Black Friday from Amazon.com? You may want to check your email for an unfortunate mixup and a fix that may or may not be adequate…

I think they should fully honor the deal considering it was advertised as such

Ah well still at least they gave a $10 voucher most companys just cancel the orders. Better than a kick in the teeth I say.

They made a mistake with Crysis 2 on PS3 a few weeks ago, listing it at £30 then 3 days later canceling any orders at that price. Maybe Amazon need to get there act together and stop false advertising

They call it a "mistake"

but where I'm from it's called "bait and switch".

The should do a collective lawsuit. Let Amazon pay for it. Like that guy who sold a picture of a car for $30K cause how he worded it on ebay. Took the other guy a while and a court case to get his money back.

God no. We don't need a bunch of sue-happy idiots cluttering up the legal system with anymore opportunistic BS lawsuits.

It's a small error that shouldn't faze any but the most anal retentive people out there. And if the $10 off really isn't good enough for you, you can always cancel/return and get your money back. Amazon is pretty good about refunds.

Honestly, if anyone actually goes to court and tells some sob story about how their holiday has been totally ruined now, that pathetic person deserves to spend Christmas 6 feet under.

Lol I'm so confused. Amazon accidentally displayed the original Uncharted 2 instead of the GOTY edition. So instead of just leaving it be they're going to send out $10 coupons to everyone? Lol Uncharted 2 is $59.99 on their website and the GOTY edition is actually listed at $39.99. They should have left it be, but what a bonus! You still get the game and that's what matters!

If you check Amazon right now they list Uncharted 2 at $59.95 and Uncharted 2 Game of the Year at $39.99. There's $10 off but that's still $10 cheaper than the regular version.

my bad. I read it correctly, just typed it backwards. Who cares though? You're getting the game AND $10! The DLC is probably all in maps that I doubt would be super useful now, the online isn't very popular anymore.

you can only use the $10 to preorder one of the 3 games KZ3, Infamous 2 or LBP2.

You can use it to preorder more than JUST those three games, the list includes Twisted Metal, SOCOM 4, ICO/SotC, Resistance 3 and MotorStorm.

I don't know if I'd have bought it from them if I'd known it wasn't the GotY edition. Take what you can get, though, I guess. :(
