[Boke1879]

VERY interested to see what deals happen on Black Friday.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Aw yiss

shame it ends right before Battlefront launches

 

[shinobi602]

Hold strong for Black Friday peeps. Hoooooolllllldddd.

 

[reKon]

eh, I still think I'm going to wait. For the games I want it's going to average out to $35 per game probably and I'll probably save more buying individually from different sales.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Nice. I typically use this to pick up older titles that I've been sitting on. Definitely picking up Kirby & the Rainbow Curse, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, and a third Wii U title.

Then on the 3DS I'll likely pick up Bravely Default, Disney's Magical World, and another third title.

Edit: Maybe the Amiibo bundle of Chibi Robo for my third 3DS title. I'll have to calcuate the price difference between GCU and B2G1F to see what's the better deal.

 

[MissileTrick]

I can never find two games I really want anymore whenever a deal like this pops up. I use to love these deals , but I guess I out grew them . Hope you guys get what ya want.

 

[ChaosZeroX]

The urge is real.

If it had included Battlefront, I might of went for it.

 

[TaintedHotSauce]

Hold strong for Black Friday peeps. Hoooooolllllldddd.

Yes. Could always buy the games on this deal, not open them and return them if something better comes along around Black Friday though.

 

[Dartastic]

I think I might have to take advantage of this. Tomb Raider, Assassins Creed and Black Ops? Yeah.

 

[Zophar]

Gonna grab Fallout, The Witcher, and MGSV, at last.

 

[FloppyDelux]

Those are the games I plan on buying + Yoshi WW.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Yep, especially with retailers being so lenient about return periods during this time.

 

[Oneself]

What have you done Canada.

Quick Trudeau, get Target back here.

 

[M.W.]

$40 a game isn't the greatest deal out there, especially since BF is so close. I'll wait.

 

[M.D]

Target recently started shipping internationally to where I live, but of course that doesn't include video games >_>

edit: It's probably in-store only so doesn't matter tbh ;s

 

[Kill3r7]

Just a guess but I wonder if BB will follow suit the week after. Might be a good time to pick up Star Wars, BLOPS III and FO4/TR.

 

[Mushroomer25]

Hmm. Get Tomb Raider, Fallout, and a bonus game for $120 - or use GCU and get them for $96 without the freebie. Decisions, decisions.

 

[Armaly]

Hold strong for Black Friday peeps. Hoooooolllllldddd.

This. I must resist.

 

[Toki767]

Waiting for Black Friday. That and I don't know 3 games I really want outside of Fallout 4 and after finishing that, the other games will have probably been on sale already.

 

[LiK]

raise all games back to MSRP. profit.

 

[Revven]

I will wait for Black Friday. I would hate to buy two games and then like a week later those same two games are cut in price and the same deal is active (or a similar one).

 

[WaffleTaco]

Black Ops 3, Fallout 4, and Halo 5/MGSV? Might just do it...

Also Black Friday sounds terrible because it will be sold out by the time I get there.

 

[Wagram]

I'm assuming this will likely not apply to pre-orders?

 

[dedhead54]

I may use this to pick up BLOPS3, Fallout 4, and something else.

 

[nikos]

This is happening during the one week that has no releases I'm interested in.

Hopefully Best Buy or Amazon will follow with one later in the month.

 

[daveo42]

Hmm...pass for me right now. Only game I'd really want to grab would be FO4 and any extra games will end up just gathering radioactive dust as I get lost in the wastes.

 

[Malo]

I want Fallout 4 and Tomb Raider but I don't know what else.

 

[RiderKairuu]

I took advantage of this last year and my copy of Advance Warfare had a blank CD in it. Target gave me hell trying to exchange it, check your games while your in the store, folks.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I just want Tomb Raider and for 40 I wouldn't mind that. Wonder if I can get my friend to go in on this. But then who gets the third game.

 

[thegreatchamp]

Just a guess but I wonder if BB will follow suit the week after. Might be a good time to pick up Star Wars, COD III and FO4/TR.

They usually do. Last year they excluded Nintendo, but made up for it later on with a better deal.

 

[MiamiWesker]

I already get most major games for under $40 at Best Buy so these deals don't do much for me anymore.

Wat

 

[Bizzquik]

Steam and PC gaming killed this for me. Used to buy overjoyed at this annual sale....

 

[RiderKairuu]

Wat

Some people scam stores by buying new games and swapping out discs and resealing them to return it and get a free game. Similar to the Red Box fraud that's rampant.

 

[netguy503]

Should add Best Buy GCU to that list as well. I used to look forward to these sales too. But now I can't go back.

Damn, that's dirty. How does Red Box handle that? I remember there being a big issue of them getting new members signing up under prepaid credit cards and then they'd just keep/sell off the discs and the auto charge wouldn't be able to go through.

 

[dragonflys545]

Nice, I've been waiting for this! I doubt prices will drop any lower than $40 for the new releases on Black Friday.

 

[Alucrid]

Probably going to sell out dust anyways

 

[dragonflys545]

I don't think you get them below 40... More like above $40 even with the 10$ rewards point.

 

[GRIMREEFZ]

I know target has pre orders now? would battlefront pre order count?

 

[RiderKairuu]

I hear Red Box is pretty good about handling fraud issues, since it's pretty common. I don't use Red Box often but I haven't had any issues from the ones I've rented.

 

[Vlitra]

Sweet! Now I know where I'm getting Fallout and StarCraft LOTV.

 

[Toki767]

Nice, I've been waiting for this! I doubt prices will drop any lower than $40 for the new releases on Black Friday.

Last year games like Shadow of Mordor, The Evil Within, and Alien Isolation were $25.

Don't doubt the level of discounts when it comes to Black Friday.

That said, I'm pretty sure Call of Duty (it never usually is) and Fallout 4 (too big of a release) won't be on sale.

 

[border]

It's really only worth it if you are buying absolutely brand new releases that won't go on sale for Black Friday (Fallout, Tomb Raider, maybe Call of Duty).

Or if you are buying Nintendo games since they never go on sale, 33% is not a bad discount.

 

[kirby_fox]

so...I have 6 days to make like $120 extra plus taxes.

Challenge accepted.

 

[CommandThrower]

This might be the time for me to buy my first three PS4 games.

Dragon Quest Heroes + Tales of Zestiria + ...hmmm. Don't know yet.

 

[dreamlongdead]

Can't take advantage of this deal after spending so much on games and upgrading to the New 3DS.

Deals like this are the best part about waiting before buying. Makes it easier to pick up those games that looked interesting but weren't personal must-haves.

 

[Straight Edge]

Will they allow multiple copies of the same game?

 

[Toki767]

Usually yes.
