The 2pm PST Gold Box deal (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fgoldbo x%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref%255F%3Dnav%255Ftdpop%255Fgb&tag=cheapassgam08-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957) on Amazon's clue is 360 degrees of World War II. I'm hoping that this is the new COD game.

its probably WW2 Aces for the WII (http://www.amazon.com/WWII-Aces-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B000SH3XH2/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1226998174&sr=8-2)

Except that's not on the 360. It's probably COD3 or the new BiA.

There's one problem here. The hint does not necessarily mean this World War 2 game is on the Xbox system.

Example the hint is: 360 degrees of World War II.

I understand that the Xbox 360 name is derived from the degree of a full circle but does it really imply that the game itself is 360 degrees (IE Flying or etc) or that we will play it on the system named after such?

I apologize if I'm over analyzing this. My personal guess is the new BIA game since it appears stores have been trying to unload this game for the past few weeks and on into Black Friday.

Quick Edit: Of course Call of duties normally entitle multiple factions/perspectives in which you'll view the war in. This might also be "360 degrees" from a viewing standpoint.

Here's another problem: By suggesting "a WWII shooter for the 360" is such a vague hint.

That's like saying a "Japanese RPG for the PS2" or "minigame collection for the Wii"

I'm betting its BiA HH for $30

I'm betting its BiA HH for $30

which would suck because it's $20 at practically every store on black friday.

I though it migh be Turning Point:FOL, you know 360 degree = turning.

Probably not though.

I hope not, although at $9.99 I'd be very slightly tempted.

Uh I hate to burst everyone's bubble, but the clue reads "360 degrees of World War II," not an Xbox 360 game. It's probably a book or some sort of DVD, but I don't think it's a game... :(

I'm with you. I have a feeling it's not a game at all. If it is a game, my money is on BIA.

I really hope its not Operation Darkness. I bit on it at $19.96.

Even then I'd still guess it was an Xbox 360 game. Considering how poorly it's been selling, I'd imagine it's Brothers in Arms. The only other recent WW2 game on 360 is COD World At War and that isn't going on sale yet I'm pretty sure.

I'm still under the impression that it's not a video game at all. Usually, Amazon will word the title like "A sci-fi shooter that will scare your pants off!" meaning like Dead Space or something. This title begins "360 degrees of..." meaning like a micro or macro look at WWII via a DVD or something along those lines. I mean, the title doesn't have any kind of indication that the product is interactive, meaning it's definitely not a game. I even looked at lightningdeals.com and the "forum predictions" all say it's a book of some sort...or at least that's what they are listing via Amazon so it's still up in the air. All I'm saying is let's not get our hopes up.

On another note, I would love to see BIA for the 360 drop to $20 or $10, but still, I'm guessing this deal isn't a game, sadly. :(

Maybe it's Hour of Victory!!!

The minute hand makes a full 360 every HOUR. Or like Cheapy said, Operation Reacharound (there's another full circle) for $9.99

Dude, getting an Operation Reacharound for $9.99 would be fucking sweet! Wait, what are we talking about again? ;)

My guess is for CoD World at War. ...I'm guessing that "360 degrees" is referring to the World . ...I'd bet it's the 360 version too, if only because of it mentioning "360."

[edit: ...That is, if it [I]is a game in the first place]

I have to agree

http://www.amazon.com/Battle-360-History-Channel-Steelbook/dp/B0016OCTUI

The only carrier to be front and center in every major sea conflict in the Pacific, the Enterprise and her crew s battles were marked by intense firepower, instinct and a 360-coordination between the ship, the destroyers, the aircraft above and the submarines below. In each of ten episodes, and using incredible CGI visualizations, BATTLE 360 follows the Enterprise and its men through another conflict of WWII as they fight off the enemy from the air, the sea and underwater.

So yeah, this topic is dead, lol.

It's probably some kind of DVD set of the Battle 360 (http://www.history.com/minisites/battle_360) series.

Edit: Ah, I see I'm late to the party with this. Silly me for not reading page 2.

Yeah, how the hell did anyone think a Movies & DVD thing would be a video game when video game gold box deals are marked as such?

It doesn't say movies & TV deal until it gets reasonably close to deal time. Up till then it just says "upcoming deal", so I could see thinking its a 360 game just going by the tagline

It doesn't show the category until the deal goes live. Maybe you should look at the rest of the deals below it for reference.

I am glad that everyone could get a good laugh from my post, but as gx5ilver said, the category does not show up until after the deal goes live. It only stated Upcoming deal and the hint.

You know that a reach around is when some dude is fucking you in the ass and "reaches around" to jack you off at the same time right?! ;)
