How the hell did I miss out on the Arkham Asylum deal!?

Arrgghhh!!

I feel your pain. I was at work when the deal came up, so I put it in my cart with the intention of paying for it when I got home. But, to my dismay, I discovered that just because it's in your cart doesn't mean the price is locked in. Now it's back up to $53. Fuck that shit.

Guess I'll just wait a year like I do for most games and then grab it for $20 used.
 
Goddamit, thought it'd be AC2 :( Oh well, never played the original anyways so I nabbed it.

Loot so far:

Tales of Vesperia $5
Assassin's Creed $10
Left for Dead 2 $35

And awesome free 2 day shipping thanks to Amazon Prime!
 
Guys, where can you get the Amazon Prime Free trial if Im not a new member? I think Kingdom Hearts 2 will be on sale soon and Im definitely biting if it is.

It's not 2, it's the DS game.

There should be a number of links around the site advertising the free trial.

I think the deal will end up being Kingdom Hearts DS though

Nice. I've purchased:

Assassin's Creed
Fallout 3
Batman: Arkham Asylum
The World Ends with You
Killzone 2
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Muramasa: The Demon Blade

Umm, I think I have a problem. I should stop now.
 
Thinking about snatching up a Dualshock 3...although they are $39.99 at a lot of places on a regular day.

The R2 button on my current Dualshock 3 broke because of Prototype. -_-
 
I'm pretty pleased with my purchases so far. For < $54 I've gotten Dragon Age, Fallout 3, and Assassin's Creed for the PS3. I've given myself a limit of $150 to spend on games for myself, so that still leaves me with about $96 left.
 
Was the free amazon prime trial offer only good yesterday? I saw people saying that it was open to anyone, even if you've used a trial before (which I have), but when I purchased Assassin's Creed & Fallout 3, I only had an option of paying the $79 (or w/e it is).

The promo code is the trial thing.
I haven't seen or read anything about a promo code but I've visited the Amazon Prime page and it doesn't offer a free trial. I signed up for the Prime trial earlier this year so that probably has something to do with it though.

This Black Friday seems dry compared to last year. I must be jaded by the lack of Uncharted 2, NSMB and Dragon Age PC sales.
No, I feel the same way too. Things have definitely gotten worse this year. There was one game in particular last year, I think Left 4 Dead PC, that was around $15 dollars iirc when it was still selling for full price in most places. That was such a good deal and there's really nothing like that this year.
 
I only got Dragon Age for $30 (with $35-$5 of amazon credit) and I PS3 controller from radioshack for $30. I was disappointed to see no deal on Infamous (should have expected that) and no ridiculously cheap GTA IV for PS3.
 
I'm disappointed Amazon didn't match Best Buy's $35 Left 4 Dead 2 360.
It helps, though, it's not like I don't have enough on my plate already, haha.

Which one? Is it still available?
No, it was really weird. I bought it from the Electronics lightning deal page, but right after that both 9am deals completely disappeared from the list. It was the remote and some off-brand $80 bluray player.

Edit: Logitech Harmony 510 Advanced Universal Remote Control

I thought they did on a lightning deal yesterday? (Can't remember the price)
 
Ordered the PS3 bundle and then Arkham Asylum earlier this morning. We truly live in an amazing era when you don't have to punch people at Walmart to get this stuff.

Looking forward to youtube videos tomorrow of people crazily rushing the doors at big retail stores. Every Black Friday is the same.

Same here. Because of this deal, I avoided having to stand in the freaking cold for hours with absolutely no guarantees that I will get the system after all. Man, we've come far.

Didn't some poor bastard at Walmart get trampled and killed last year? Guy was the size of a house and it still didn't matter - 60 people running over you will do you in no matter how big you are.

Be safe people - browse this thread instead.

I went to NYC for Thanksgiving one time. I was in Macy's on black friday '99 and it was the scariest thing I have ever seen.

Yes, it seems like there is at least 1 confirmed fatality every year and many injured. It's sad to see that we lose humanity so quickly and throw morals out the window just to get some new, shiny thing for less.

Would you be interested in a PSP go for $200 and free papatapon 2 deal from a different retailer ?

Not sure if I'm onboard with the PSPgo...but what retailer has it for that price?
 
ROFL Kingdom Hearts 358/2 is $25. I kept myself awake because I thought it was going to be $10-20. FUCK YOU LAME DEALS AMAZON!

Yeah I was expecting it to be a bit lower than that. Oh well.
