The Gaming Deals Thread

Does that mean I can expect to have a MW3 buddy? It would definitely be nice - randoms blow! :D

You'll love Skyrim. It's absolutely, hands down the most amazing game I've ever played. Just unbelievable. I'm heading in right now to pick up my Revelations Signature Edition and then Halo Anniversary, and then I'm completely done until Black Friday.

Yep, I'm game for teaming up in MW3. I hate playing randoms as well. The only times I'll play regular MP in COD is if I'm with at least one or two other friends, so at least then I'll know I have someone worth a damn on my team.

Yeah, Skyrim was on my "hmm, interesting" list up until about a month ago. Since then, it's been bumped up to my "damn I want this" list. So it was an easy decision to jump on the 50% off deal with the combo of MW3 and Skyrim.

Yeah, I'm hoping the UPS guy shows up during the 1pm hour, like they sometimes do. We have a live drive remote for one of our campaigns 4-7pm, so if he shows up during the 1pm hour, that'll give me a good hour and half to play and enjoy Revelations before I have to leave for the remote.

If anyone wants WWE '12, better preorder it now from Amazon. Amazon has WWE '12 listed for $47 for pre-order right now. If you're planning on getting the game, I'd jump on that right now and lock it in with the pre-order price guarantee, save yourself $13 right off the bat.

Yeah doesn't look too tempting to me either unless FIFA is a steal but I am guessing it is around $35-$45. I am also curious to see what headset is in the deal b/c I have been wanting a nice pair for quite sometime.

[CLW]

Fifa 12 = $35-$40

Turtle Beach is probably the best of the bargain brands. Tritton is terrible. They still don't sound even remotely close as good as the Astro A40s do, though. I've had mine about a year now and I'll say it's the best investment I've ever made. I'd probably die without them. :D

Scored probably the best deal I have all year today. I noticed that Best Buy was selling the Arkham City CE for $34.99 online and it had already sold out. I noticed on CAG the retail locations were not price matching, but I called anyway and was told they had none in stock. Shit. I decide to go anywhere(I've been told incorrect info by a BB employee multiple times before) and see one sitting on the shelf in plain sight for $100, which is retail. I take it to customer service, show them the web site, and the lady says "since it's an outlet store deal, we probably wont be able to price match, but I'll go check." She comes back 5 minutes later and says they can't do the $35, but they'd be willing to do $45. Sold.

I'll definitely be shopping there a lot more. That's the second time in a row I've been there and an employee has gone completely out of their way to get me a deal and I haven't had to say a word about it. Fantastic service, much better than what some of my experiences were a few years ago.

Yeah apparently a ton of people had orders cancelled. IMHO Best Buy is pratically the walking dead hanging on by a thread thanks to those who fail to embrace technology. I basically use it as my Amazon showroom. I went and looked at HD sets, decided which one I wanted and then told them they would have to match Amazon's price. They didn't and I walked out got the t.v. I wanted for $700 less (not even counting the no sales tax).

This WWE '12 for $29.99 deal won't be cancelled....it's on Amazon (PS3 only) (http://www.amazon.com/WWE-12-Playstation-3/dp/B0053BQU4G/ref=as_li_tf_sw?&linkCode=wsw&tag=thegamtai-20)

[oweb26]

Yeah apparently a ton of people had orders cancelled. IMHO Best Buy is pratically the walking dead hanging on by a thread thanks to those who fail to embrace technology. I basically use it as my Amazon showroom. I went and looked at HD sets, decided which one I wanted and then told them they would have to match Amazon's price. They didn't and I walked out got the t.v. I wanted for $700 less (not even counting the no sales tax).

I buy pretty much all my stuff off Amazon, but for some reason when it comes to my TV's I would rather just buy it in store. Mostly because I am a right now kinda guy on somethings and my TV is one of those things.

Anyone know where I can get xbox live 12 month for less than $45? That's just a ridiculous price to pay for that...

There was a deal not long ago for $35....they pop up now and again, just have to keep an eye on slick deals.

[SmoothPancakes]

I'm just waiting for Christmas. A 12 month live gold card is always part of my Christmas present from my sister. I've had Xbox since Christmas 2008 or 2009, whichever one it was, and I have yet to actually have to buy a single month of xbox live gold with my own money.

Got rid of my old original 360 Elite and got myself a new Holiday 250 GB bundle plus the $75 gift card for right at $200 out of pocket. Even cheaper than that after i traded in some old games as well.

Amazon has video games for Gold Box today.

Dead Island $25 for PS3 or 360 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=cs_top_nav_gb27)

Possibly Modern Warfare 3 at 1PM central. Else everything else looks like dance games.

[SmoothPancakes]

6:00 AM PST - LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean
8:00 AM PST - Zumba Fitness (either 1 or 2)
11:00 AM PST - Modern Warfare 3
3:00 PM PST - Wii Fit Plus
6:00 PM PST - Rocksmith
8:00 PM PST - Black Eye Peas Experience

Once again, another extremely "meh" and disappointing Gold Box day. The only game that I'm interested in is Rocksmith, but that would be only if they have added support for bass guitars. If bass guitars are still not supported in game, then I'm still going to be waiting to buy Rocksmith until sometime in the future.

[DariusLock]

Ahhhh I don't wanna pay for MW3 but if it's a good deal I may ... "pull the trigger".

[JBHuskers]

Dead Island for $25 is a pretty decent deal, but yeah the lightning deals are pretty sad. I'm guessing MW3 is no lower than $35, better guess of $40.

It went live earlier today and I hopped on it. I wanted it at launch but couldn't justify the price. However, for $300 with a year of live, I'm all in especially considering I can break even by selling my other system, hard drive, and my other copy of Gears 3. Not bad.

Looks like PS3 only. 360 is still showing as $19.49.

[I OU a Beatn]

NCAA Football 13 is $44.99 for 360 on Amazon right now. Judging from past experiences, it won't stay that way long. The PS3 version is still listed at $59.

[morsdraconis]

Does Amazon charge you now for it or will it not be until it's ready to be shipped that it will charge you?

[I OU a Beatn]

Doesn't charge until the Monday before release when it ships. Free release day delivery too.

Thanks for the clear answer Beatn.

I've never pre-ordered from Amazon before (that I can remember) and couldn't remember if it was charged immediately or not until release.

Yeah, I ended up biting on this. I've been considering the Fallout games for a while and had thought about buying Fallout 3 a number of times but never went through with it. So between that, and getting TES IV as well, so I can play the prequel to Skyrim (which I have much enjoyed playing), both for $20, too goo to pass that up.

The Run is good to "run" through the offline story and then selling back. You may still get $20+ back for it on eBay (I got $22).

I'm going to get Rayman Origins (if it isn't sold out). Heard it's an awesome game.

Yep it's not a very direct prequel. I think Oblivion is 200 years before Skyrim. There will be a ton of subtle references to Oblivion and the land of Cyrodiil though.

Yeah, that's what I remember reading, but it will at least give me some additional insight into the Elder Scrolls world and some things I learn/see/come across in Oblivion will maybe make more sense of the things I learn/see/come across in Skyrim. Plus, I've enjoyed Skyrim a ton, so why not go some of other TES games a try and venture through some of the other parts of the series.

Man Oblivion is awesome. Still the single most played game by me of all-time this generation. Close to 250-270 hours I think.

Yeah, those games at those prices are phenomenal. I bought Rage at $60 and I really wish I would have waited. It was an amazing game, but not worth $60. Now, at $10? That is an easy buy for those who have not picked it up. In fact, I owned every game up there, but Dead Island. All of those are worth the money. Heck, Red dead and GTA IV were worth their $60 price heads.

I know it got pretty hammered in the reviews, but I believe that's because people were expecting a horror game, which it is not. I've played it, beaten it, and enjoyed every second of it. If you like 3rd person action shooters, you truly can't go wrong.

Also, it has very easy trophies/achievements for the most part, but if you plan on getting the platinum/1000GS, it's extremely time consuming for some of them.

It may be because I've become spoiled, but I find these Gold Box deals to be embarrassing. $47.99 for The Witcher 2? Seriously? Best Buy has been completely owning their asses when it comes to video game deals for the past several months. Hell, in the last 2 months alone I've gotten Arkham City, Silent Hill Downpour, and The Darkness 2 for under $10. I just walked in today and picked up SSX for $10.

...and then Amazon wants me to believe The Witcher 2 at $47.99 is considered to be a "gold" deal. :D

I miss the days when I'd set my alarm for one of these babies because I knew they were going to have a slew of deals well worth hopping on. I also remember when they would offer a $20 credit on just about any preorder. Oh well.

[JBHuskers]

I gotta say IOU sold me on the Astros and I LOVE them. Worth every penny although I sometimes ponder whether I should have went with wireless over my wired set.

I'm not sure how it is with other headsets, but with the Sony ones you don't have to wire up anything to the surround sound receiver. Just with the dongle it automatically routes the game and chat sound to the headset. I know on my Turtle Beach ones for 360, I had to connect them into the audio jacks of my receiver.

[I OU a Beatn]

I gotta say IOU sold me on the Astros and I LOVE them. Worth every penny although I sometimes ponder whether I should have went with wireless over my wired set.

They're coming out with the A50s next month. Mixamp is built into the headset and they're completely wireless. $300, though. I'm waiting on reviews, but I'll definitely be getting them if they are of the same quality as my A40s. My only complaint about the A40 is the same as yours...a ton of wires.

I can't stand Turtle Beach or Tritton headsets. They all have that annoying hiss when there's a silent part in the game.

[JeffHCross]

It may be because I've become spoiled, but I find these Gold Box deals to be embarrassing.It's pretty clear to me that Amazon has determined that they don't need to convince us to buy from them ... we will anyway. They're not trying to undercut their competition by a door-busting amount anymore.

Black Friday is going to be very, very interesting this year.


I can't stand Turtle Beach or Tritton headsets. They all have that annoying hiss when there's a silent part in the game.I've been wondering about that. The hiss in my Turtle Beach headset is pretty much constant, but I was never sure if it was my setup or what (I would certainly say that I have an unorthodox setup). Unfortunately none of my friends have other headsets, so I can't compare other than to buy other sets myself (which would be prohibitively expensive).

Yeah, it's normal. I've tried 2 different versions of each and they all 4 had the hiss. I've read reviews of other ones as well and apparently they all have the hiss. It always bugged me to death.


If I'm reading Best Buy's ad correctly, they appear to be having a 100% bonus trade-in credit right now ...

Yep, just one of the things they've done the past several months. The @Gamer magazine has coupons in it that stacks with their sales prices, and they're usually smart enough to put at least a few of the games on sale. They had SSX for PS3 and 360 on sale for $40 and the magazine had a $30 off coupon, so it was essentially $10. They dropped Soul Calibur to $30 and had a coupon for $20 off SCV in the same magazine, so it too was essentially $10.

That's just in last month's magazine. During the deal of the day the last 2 weeks they've had Arkham City for $10 and Silent Hill Downpour for $20 with no coupon required. They had The Darkness II for $9.99 with a coupon out of the magazine like a month after it launched. I almost forgot, but in the same magazine as the one that had the SSX and Soul Calubur coupons, they had $20 off The Deadliest Warrior and low and behold, they dropped the price to $19.99, so people were able to literally get it for free.

They've been killing it with gaming deals for the past several months. The $14.99 I spent for the magazine subscription was the best $15 I've ever spent. It's saved me hundreds of dollars and I'm not even halfway through my subscription.

Great game, it's not as arcade as you might think. It's more like real street futbol.

Just go in store and ask for it. $15 gets you a yearly subscription. It's called @Gamer.

[JBHuskers]

Amazon has lowered FIFA Street to $19.99 also (http://www.amazon.com/FIFA-Street-Playstation-3/dp/B005OSFUOY/ref=as_li_tf_sw?&linkCode=wsw&tag=thegamtai-20), so you can support us and Amazon instead of Best Buy ;)

Damn it, my copy already shipped from BB otherwise I'd go through Amazon since I have the free 2 day shipping. Oh well.

Nevermind...it looks like they don't even have 360 copies in stock.

It was free shipping but it looks like it sold out online. Still available for that price with in store pickup or you could just go to the store and it should be the same price there.

[I OU a Beatn]

Yeah, I was surprised how big it was. The lady handed it to me and I was like "...the hell is this?" :D

I never got it originally because I thought the quality was lacking, but having opened it, it was probably worth the retail price. For $30 it's a complete steal.

And the guy walking through the Best Buy parking lot is wondering why this dude is caressing his UC3 Collector's Edition

[Kingpin32]

I got me a $25 gift card for BB. I know what I'm getting now.

[Kingpin32]

....except its sold out in every Best Buy store near me. FML.

[I OU a Beatn]

Make sure you call. Even if they have 1-3 copies in stock, it'll still say not available. I'd almost bet one of them has at least one...my store had an entire wall just filled with them.

Will do. I was gonna go by there anyways. At least now I'll have something to look for.

Need For Speed: The Run $5. Definitely worth it.

Target's running a "Black Friday in July" promotion this week.

"Black Friday-like deals just for you.starts Friday. ends Saturday."

Right now they've got some discounts on laptops and other electronics. No games yet that I've seen.

Amazon price matched AC: Revelations for $9.99 on both PS3 and 360.

They also have an all day Video Game Gold Box starting in about 90 minutes here. I'm sure it'll be legendary. :smh:

[JBHuskers]

Amazon needs to lead. Not follow. They copied Best Bay's $15 deal on Gears of War 3.

First Gold Box deal was SSX for $34.99. You know...the same game Best Buy had a month ago for $10. :fp:

Looking at the descriptions, there might be some cool titles, with far from great prices.

[I OU a Beatn]

Yeah, some good titles but we'll have to see on prices. I expect them to be underwhelming to say the least.

10AM PST - Borderlands Game of the Year(probably)
12PM PST - "Lightning strikes in the great groundbreaking collector's edition." Absolutely no idea. They don't have the inFAMOUS 2 CE in stock so it can't be that.
3PM PST - Dead Island
5PM PST - Max Payne 3
8PM PST - Could be any fighter, don't know.

If the noon central game is New Vegas GotY for like $10 or $15 I'd bite.

Max Payne 3 would be great for $25, but it'll probably be $35.

As for fighters if it is UMvC3 on PS3 for $20 or less I'll get it. Street Fighter X Tekken I heard was baaaaad, but for $10-$15 I'd check it out.

But I'm in agreement with you Beatn, I'm not optimistic that the prices will be good, but I'll still be watching.

[JBHuskers]

As for Lightning strikes in the great groundbreaking collector's edition...

Some think maybe Final Fantasy XIII-2 CE, or I'm sure that Amazon can flip the switch all of a sudden and say they have Infamous 2 CE in stock.

[I OU a Beatn]

Yeah, it has to be one of those two. They have the CE of Final Fantasy XIII-2 in stock right now for $60. If that's what it is and they knocked it down to $19.99, I'd have to get it. But...we all know that isn't happening. :D

Well Max Payne 3 isn't even in stock right now either....so that means Infamous 2 isn't out of the running.

[souljahbill]

I'm in the theater now for The Dark Knight (starts in 10 minutes) but I stopped by Best Buy before coming here. I bought Pilotwings Resort (3DS), Metroid Other M and Sin & Punishment 2 (Wii) for $16. I know most people hate the Wii but I personally love the system. It has more good games then people give it credit for. I also don't even have a 3DS but I'll be getting one the day Animal Crossing comes out for it (I LOVE that series). Pilotwings was the launch 3DS game I was most interested in. Glad I don't have to pay $40 for it.

[JBHuskers]

I'm only one man, but it doesn't hurt to try :D

Me:Hello!12:45:35 PM
Me:I just wanted to start with that I'm a long time Amazon customer and have purchased many items over the years from you guys.12:45:53 PM
Me:I just wanted to make a comment on Video Games Deals and the Gold Box for Video Games. As you can see they don't sell well, because they really aren't that great of deals. 12:46:21 PM
Me:For example, SSX today for $35. Best Buy offered it for $10 a month or so ago. I run a gaming site, and I can tell from the community's reaction that ever since Black Friday, the deals, especially on Gold Box are very underwhelming.12:47:04 PM
Me:I just wanted to pass that feedback along.12:47:11 PM

Bodapati:Thank you for the feedback, Jeremy. 12:47:43 PM
