GRAPEVINE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2013--
GameStop, the world’s largest multichannel video game retailer, is
taking the uncertainty out of which Xbox version of your favorite game
you should buy this fall with an exclusive, guaranteed upgrade offer.
GameStop is offering PowerUp Rewards members a special, limited time
opportunity to receive a $50 guaranteed minimum credit for select
standard edition Xbox 360 titles when a member upgrades to the new Xbox
One standard version of that title.
“This is an amazing opportunity for our PowerUp (PUR) members to enjoy
their favorite Xbox 360 game until the Xbox One version becomes
available,” said Bob Puzon, senior vice president of merchandising at
GameStop. "This offer gives PUR members the chance to upgrade their
current Xbox 360 game for the new Xbox One standard version of that game
for $9.99. This is a great example of how GameStop is helping gamers
make the transition to the next generation of consoles economical and
seamless.”

at the time they purchase a new eligible Xbox 360 title(s) within 30
days of its initial release and then trade that game at any U.S.
GameStop location for the new Xbox One standard version of that same
game. Following the purchase of an eligible current generation title,
members will receive the guaranteed $50.00 trade-credit coupon via email
