I love your signature!

If I can help it, I'm avoiding all B&M stores for BF. Amazon sounds like it has me covered for games I was going to get elsewhere. If they match other retailers on more games... bonus! Also looking forward to Steam sale.

My first few hours of GT5 was torture, adjusting from GTA/nfs to GT5 driving took some time to get used to. The game has racing lines that guides you for the right path and speed on attacking corners really helps in adjusting/learning the track.

Getting it again (sold it a year ago) as i read that huge changes has been made throughout the game.

Be prepared for a 10+GB install and long loading times before races.

That's a good point. I'm Prime so it doesn't affect me.

For lightning deal, is every $25 new games gone within one minute? Because this is my first black Friday.

Does dishonored have any replay value?

I'm only looking to get Fifa 13, WWE 13 and maybe Madden 13 and Sly Collection. If I can get those, I'm done until 2013.

Depends on the game. I remember last year the game they put on sale was gone w/in seconds. Like the moment the countdown turns 00:00 and then at the same time you click the "add to cart" button the deal was already gone and you are on a waitlist.

The guy from Reddit also confirmed that the AC Vita bundle will be "better deal than just $200 for the AC3 Vita bundle".

Holy shit. Guess I wait and just return mine from AWD depending on how much better it is.

Oh my god. How can I check out faster?

I have a $10 credit with amazon, deciding to get Dishonored for 15 or Darksiders 2 for 20. Both PS3. I really loved Darksiders 1 and I love skyrim but just couldn't get into Fallout and not big on the Assassins games but do enjoy them.

Last year was terrible, to the point where I thought it was a glitch. Hopefully, this year will be better.

What do you mean AC3 Vita bundle?

If youre talking to me I mean the white Assassins Creed Liberation Vita Bundle. On Friday it's Amazons gold box deal (all day or until they run out) and the Amazon rep says it is going to be a better deal than simply $200 for it. So either the price will be even less than $200 or more likely I imagine they'll throw in something else along with it. Either way that's awesome and will beat any other Vita deal for BF.

if someone gets the chance they should try and weasel out any information about 3ds xl.

Oh sweet! I'm holding off until then. When would this deal go live?

You can't lol, waiting for the countdown to end is the only way i know. I think its all luck and hope this time amazon will put more than 10 copies of the same game available for bf sale.

...each lightning deal is only for 10 copies for each game? By the way, is one click ordering useless? I am thinking whether I give up on amazon. Have you succeed buying anything in lighting deal last year? I am very scared now.

Not sure but he did say it's "all day" so maybe around 12am Pacific time? He said they will not run out in 2 hours but best not to wait until too late to buy it.

I dont know but I wish that guy would show up here so we could give him the third degree

I successfully bought some games from Amazon last year, so don't fret too hard. There were some high demand items that obviously had fairly low quantities in stock (more than 10 I'd imagine) that were gone almost instantly. Each year Amazon learns from past experiences, so I expect this year to be better managed than last. And I don't think you can do 1-Click purchases on Lightning Deals. At least I have it enabled and am always forced to go through the "standard" checkout.

The ordering speed isn't the problem. Once you get it in the cart, you have 30 minutes to buy or delete it. It's the getting it into the cart that's the pickle.
