incredible deal if ou are on at&t or sprint, but if you are on vzw 4 inches is just a little to small when 4.5 and higher is becoming the norm.

4.5" or higher is NOT the norm. The screen size is measured diagonally meaning these hand sets have a disporportionate length to width. A long and narrow 4.5" screen doesn't offer than huge of a real estate difference from a typical 4.3" screen.

The last two times I was in Best Buys, there were more employees than customers. This is not a good sign for best buys.

sucks that there's no option for T-Mobile customers.
i'm going to do the deal on Amazon. you can get $25 off of the purchase of a 12 month Xbox LIVE Membership. that's like over half off of the Membership and if you're about to have to refresh your 12 months this Holiday Season like most people have to it's like you're just paying $35 for MW3 in the end and you can believe i'm going to get Elite baby. did you guys know that there's going to be an Elite app that let's you change your MW3 load-out? pure. f**king. awesome.

Those are all last gen phones which you can get for free on basically any online retailer. Plus who hasn't already pre-ordered MW3 through Gamestop!? Jk... No but really.

I actually have mine preordered at best buy. I went to gamestop first but when the hardened edition was announced I never received the email or call as the clerk told me I would. I had to go to best buy to get the hardened.

Would be a good deal if a contract weren't required.

Haha yeah, but that would be a steal from them...

Newegg has the best deal at like $48ish I believe? If you can wait 2-3 days, that would be the best deal brand new.

Not really, not if you 1) don't want to spend your upgrade/new line one one of those phones(I definitely don't!) or 2) Already in a plan... Thanks for the information Synack, some people appreciate it!

I was just at my local Best Buy the other day and saw the HTC Inspire for free with a 2-year contract...way to promote your game Activision.

I'm not sure if this is correct my sister works at best buy mobile and one of the employees who works with her said that those phones are all free but when you buy them the day the game comes out on Tuesday you get a Call of Duty Elite membership for one year and a limited edition Modern Warfare 3 case for the phone you activate but in order to get this you must buy the game you don't need to buy the game to get the phone free, all the phones that are eligible for the deal are already free for now at least

Free as in you're required to get a 2yr contract?
I'm really concerned with Verizon. Everyone can sell their product at a much cheaper price than they can. This really is affecting the Corporate stores as well as premium retailers. :/

I know they do. I also know it's better for customers too.
As a sales rep though, I can't help but feel a little betrayed. :/ I know we're not hurting yet as a location but give it time, more and more sales will be lost because of the much lower prices. Already now I have people tell me well so and so has it free or at a much lower cost and the only thing I can say is, I know more about the phones and I can give better customer service. I guess that part falls on deaf ears though.

Indeed. This is a very misleading title to the article. It is not free your required to agree to a two year contract. Signing a two year agreement makes it not truly free there is still an oppertunity cost attached to this deal.

I think this is nice for people already planning to get the game and were looking at phones anyways. But otherwise it's just kind of meh and i'd probably just get the game and not the phone.

This is a dumb ass add. get a old phone for 59.96 just to buy MWF3? no thanks I would like to buy like the VIVID or the Atrix 2 for 59.96
