#14038768 Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread XVIII

Posted by EasyEducator on 14 August 2018 - 01:14 AM in Video Game Deals

Ummm, did the warehouse page get nuked or something?
 
Almost none of the regular items are showing for me, specifically the Switch related items. There were several games, all gone now.


I saw the same thing. Warehouse video games went from over 3000 items to about 750 between breakfast and lunch today. Very weird.



#13949389 Nier: Automata $24 at Best Buy (GCU)

Posted by EasyEducator on 19 February 2018 - 09:00 PM in Video Game Deals

Nier: Automata was a top 3 game of 2017 for me (w/ P5 and HZD). While there were some missteps (graphics were appropriate but just ok, sidequests were lackluster) the overall package is outstanding.  You'll get more out of the game's lore if you've played Nier or the Drakengard series, but it's not required to appreciate the game.  And since no one else has mentioned it, the soundtrack is phenomenal.  Probably the strongest beginning to end music I've heard in a game. 

 

The weirdest thing about N.A. for me was that while I was playing, I enjoyed the game but I wasn't "consumed" by it as is sometimes the case with games I love.  However, after finishing it (that ending is special) I couldn't get it out of my head and spent my lunch breaks for two weeks watching videos and reading articles about the game's lore and arguing for its consideration as a masterpiece.  I still listen to the soundtrack at least once a week while doing class work.  It definitely isn't for everyone, but it is a special game. 




#13936870 PSN Weekly Deals - 4/10: Rockstar Sale! $20 Owlboy, $14 Aegis D...

Posted by EasyEducator on 31 January 2018 - 04:38 PM in Video Game Deals

This is a great month! I've been holding off on Rime and Knack for just this reason.  Looks like we also get Grand Kingdom on PS4/Vita.  I found GK to be a very enjoyable RPG/SRPG game and happily put about 40 hours into it a year ago.  Throw in Mugen Souls Z on PS3 and that's several "big" games to go with the smaller indies.  Sweetness. 




#13895319 GameStop Black Friday 2017 Ad Scan

Posted by EasyEducator on 29 November 2017 - 11:21 PM in Deal Graveyard

I just got an email confirming shipment of my order. it will arrive two weeks after I placed the order, but better than nothing.  Hold on to hope, boys.




#13894632 GameStop Black Friday 2017 Ad Scan

Posted by EasyEducator on 29 November 2017 - 01:59 AM in Deal Graveyard

I also ordered Wednesday night and have not heard anything from GS.  I have an order # on my account (listed as "open") and a receipt from Paypal, but never got a confirmation email from GS like I have in the past.  I emailed them today...we'll see how long it takes them to get back to me.  

 

I only ordered two games, Injustice 2 and Yakuza 0.  Yakuza was on sale again today for the same $30 and I wanted to just cancel my previous order and pick it up in store, but there wasn't even an option to cancel.  Loathing GS right now, especially since everything I ordered from other retailers that same night has already been delivered. 




#13889372 Toys"R"Us TRU YMMV In Store Clearance Thread I

Posted by EasyEducator on 24 November 2017 - 02:45 AM in Deal Graveyard

Thanks for the heads up on the clearance!

 

I was able to pick up Batman, DQ7, DQ8, FE:Con, and YoKai 2 for just under $60 after tax.  Prices were not marked and I had to convince an employee to scan them for me to check for clearance.  The store wasn't overly busy and the staff was helpful; I was in and out in less than 10 mins.  Some of the 3DS items were not in lock-up with the newer releases, but were instead in clamshells on jam-packed shelves in the gaming area if that helps anyone.  




#13877845 NEWEGG- 40% off select games with code

Posted by EasyEducator on 15 November 2017 - 09:41 PM in Video Game Deals

Did not work on AC: Origins for PS4 :(

Damn, my bad.  I was trying to get the topic up before my next class and I typed the code wrong.  It should be BTEBBBH23 (now fixed in topic).  The ....H24 code was for accessories.  Sorry, Champ, try again with the new code.  




#13877794 NEWEGG- 40% off select games with code

Posted by EasyEducator on 15 November 2017 - 08:47 PM in Video Game Deals

Some good dealsat Newegg right now if you are on their mailing list.  With code there are several new-ish games that are 40% off. Many are at or near Black Friday prices. Some highlights would be:

South Park: TFBW

AC: Origins

Destiny 2

Wolfenstein 2

Evil Within 2

etc....

 

Code is BTEBBBH23.  I got free shipping (shoprunner) and no tax so South Park was only $36.  I'll take that now over trying to save a couple of dollars next week.  As always, codes and links can be a little goofy at NEWEGG and stock goes fast.  Good luck.

My limit to playing on the Vita is about an hour cause it's not super comfortable...s

 

 I find the vita to be fairly uncomfortable to hold.

Sorry that this is a little off PSN deals topic, but if you find the Vita uncomfortable to hold, try investing in one of these.  I got one years ago when I was having problems playing Uncharted: GA for more than 30 mins and it completely changed how and for how long I can use my Vita.

I take that it came CIB? Great find!


Yeah, it was a "good" copy. I was trying to hustle and post it and forgot to mention that. I paid $16 for a copy a few months ago, so I hope a CAG was able to snag it.
