About the EU campaign for maid outfit and fat chocobo

Gametop promotion: Sweden
I still think the Nordics had the worst deal. Sure, having to buy something for 20£ isn't too bad. However, while well at the local store, it surfaced that they'd been instructed only to give out the codes to those who buy SE products for at least 20£... ended up buying a game I'm not even sure I want to play for 60£ because of this bullshit.

This is really upsetting. It is so dishonest by SE to not include this detail of the promotion in their information! I think it might count as some sort of false advertisement. I already own all the FF games that are out, and I have no interest in the upcoming one as it only has male characters from what I know.

I can second this. I got my codes finally, but when I called them they said it had to be a "Square Enix Product" for at least 199 SEK. This was not listed in the promotion.

The wording of the promotion is so misleading. They do not even HAVE any Square Enix products for as little as 199 SEK! The only eligible ones I could find cost almost three times as much!

The wording goes:

Make a qualifying purchase of at least €19.99 (or 199 kr) at local GameStop stores in Ireland, Denmark, Finland, Norway or Sweden to receive a promotional code.

And yes, I had to grab Deus Ex because they didn't have anything cheap... I don't know, I think Deus Ex is a FPS game... which is the only genre of games I don't play ._.

Well, the thing is, there is no qualifying purchase for 199 SEK here. The ones counting as qualifying purchases here was 499 SEK at the lowest.

Yes, exactly this. ^ I had to get something for around 450 SEK minimum cause there was nothing else available for lower.

Yeah, was the same for me... (as I've said before in this thread, had to buy Deus Ex for 60£... and I don't play FPS games \o/ The last FPS game I played was CS 1.5 almost 16 years ago... I do not enjoy them, it's the only gaming genre I don't play except Facebook games (if that could count as a genre)).
