You will have to work for it though, since it isn't part of the deal. Like I said, it took me a few attempts.

Bought Your Fitness 2012 and SR3 during the lightening deal and they took half off the SR3 since that was technically the cheaper game. Nice.

I bought SR3 and Halo Anniversary.

SR3 is not on the B1G50% list anymore but still says the promotion on the SR3 page. I added both to my cart and went to checkout and the discount did not come off immediately. I called customer service and they helped me out.

Another win for Amazon Customer Service.

They have Saints Row: The Third for 39.99 flat, and free shipping saver as well.

I went with SR3 and Zelda 3DS

I want the tekken Hybrid LE, but can't think of anything to combine it with.
Maybe skyrim, but I think i'll just hold out for a cheaper price.

If i do, any suggestions for another 60 dollar game to go with it? Saints row 3rd sounds good but its not at 60 bucks

Suggestions (depending on what you're in the mood for) for another $60 game to go with Skyrim:

Dark Souls
Tekken Hybrid LE (PS3) - this one went under the radar...didn't realize it was part of the deal
Disgaea 4 Premium Edition (PS3)

They are making me send a game back. And rebuy them under the promo. Bleh.

I'm thinking of getting Skyrim and Ultimate, both for PS3. After the half off, and my $20 credit, Ultimate will be free which is cool but.. I'm hearing some bad stuff all around about the PS3 version of Skyrim..
Always wanted the PC version but my laptop isn't a gaming rig. only 4 GB Ram and the newest intel core i3 doesn't seem like it's going to be able to push it too much. What do you guys think? Bite and face some possible issues with PS3 Skyrim or get PC version and see how well it plays?

I'd just hold off on skyrim all together.
BUT I would definetly go with the PS3 version rather than playing ball with the PC version. At least you know it'll play on your ps3

I'm avoiding it for the same reason. Even with the newest patch some people are still having issues.

I'm going to agree with you. I'm thinking I WOULD be able to play it on the laptop but at horrid settings. Main reason I wanted it on PC was for Mods but I think the PS3 version will have to hold me off until the day that I get a decent PC to play, then I'll re buy it on PC (years from now lol).

If you wanted to get it now because of the sale, maybe go for it? Just hold off on playing it till the next patch. xD I know I'd be busy with Ultimate because I just got an Eightarc Sapphire Fusion stick and my friends need to learn who their master is.

I got the 1000 and put like 65 hours into it. I started having really annoying issues at around 55 hours. I've had more issues than anyone else I've personally spoken with, and it still wasn't much, and was very late. It really is hyperbole to say it's unplayable and that you must wait. It's a great game, just go play it and enjoy yourself! DOVAHKIIN!!!!

If you "got the 1000" that means you played on the 360 version, which doesn't have any issues lol

I realize the PS3 is supposed to have some more issues, but rest assured good sir, the 360 is by no means free of them.

I contacted AZ about it, they issued me a $20 promo for the hassle, and I had a $5 credit, and I just signed up for the AZ card. I use my CC a lot to get stuff then pay it off right away, I figured I should do it on AZ to get some rewards back. So with that instant $30, I bought a Samsung galaxy player 5.0 with a card, figure I can sell my iTouch and make an even trade. Have an iPhone so don't need an iTouch but wanted to get something android to play around with.

/derailment.

That said, I went with SR3 because of the free download of SR2

The PS3 issue is confirmed to get worse the more you play. The more you do in the game, the bigger the file gets which causes the issues.

So, it's only really a huge issue if you plan on playing 100+ hours.

Yeah we just have to hope Bethesda is working to try fix this unlike how they didn't fix New Vegas.

Thought they fixed that in the 1.2 patch?

I'm up to 70 or so hours, no real issues. The patch introduced a new issue where load screens hang for a minute or so on occasion (only happened to me twice), and the game froze completely on me once, but that's absolutely nothing compared to how bad New Vegas was.

IIRC, Bethesda only published F:NV. Obsidian actually developed it.
