[quote name='Blackout']Haha me too. I bolted out of class and headed straight for the computer lab.[/QUOTE]

haha! glad i'm not the only one! I'm even sitting on the stairs with my laptop because a bunch of people are on the benches.

anyway!

decided to not get AA for $50. bought carnival games for $10.

looking SO forward to these bf deals. solely because of the awesome people in the cag community to talk to while we wait for the deals to hit :)

thanks everyone for making this so much fun!
 
[quote name='Fire_Thief']MC LA is a waste, because the much superior Complete Edition is out.[/QUOTE]

elaborate this pls

I got the deal in my cart and yet to do the checkout
 
It's also hella dumb how the lightning discount works. I gotta go pre-order some game to get my MW2 credit on hold so it won't mess with the discounting.
 
Was hoping AC2 would be 40 but oh well, got a copy of midnight club la for 10 bucks so wont have to fight for it at walmart for that price.
 
[quote name='bgame2']Once again no cheap psp go. I'm not sure whether I'm disappointed or relieved that I didn't get lured into buying one.[/QUOTE]
PSP2 was all but confirmed for 2010 IIRC. I wouldn't sweat it.
 
[quote name='Aleman']My Modern Warfare 2 credit messed up the MC LA lightning deal... on checkout it listed $27.99 - $20 credit (from MW2) - $7.99 Lightnining Deal.

Oh well, I didn't really want that game anyway.[/QUOTE]

Yeah. same thing happened to me. I preordered a game that comes out next year just to take the credit out of my account while these deals are going on.
 
[quote name='Fire_Thief']MC LA is a waste, because the much superior Complete Edition is out.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the heads up, I canceled my order.
 
sounds midnight club is a good game for hardcore racing fans, but otherwise way to difficult. I'm on the fence but I'm going to pass on adding this to the pile of shame. Too many games to play right now to invest this kind of time into a frustratingly difficult racing game.
 
So, any word on other DS Lite colors having deals this week? 100 dollars was always the price point I wanted...like blue or red or black or grey, essentially every color but the one currently offered.
 
[quote name='OddLogik']HAHA at the 0% claim for the PS3 AC2



It was 30$ for the PS3 a few weeks ago.[/QUOTE]
I believe it was last Wednesday or Thursday ;)
 
[quote name='OddLogik']HAHA at the 0% claim for the PS3 AC2

Not sure what you are looking at is it shows me 11% for PS3 while 10% for 360.
 
So what are guesses from any Amazon BF vets as to the PS3 deal?

Is it gone for good?
Being modified?

I mean - I'd take any two half decent games over braving the crazed hordes @ WM or BB - but what are the odds we get details before Friday morning?
 
[quote name='OddLogik']HAHA at the 0% claim for the PS3 AC2[/QUOTE]
Refresh it, they're both at 10%. At least Cabela's is selling out faster, but it's still sad.
 
Was hoping for better with AC2, but it was blind hope. Should've known I wouldnt grab it for $40 the second week of its release. Still crossing my fingers for some Friday magic.

Yeah, I refreshed it after I posted it and felt stupid. But it did take a while for it to reach that mark.
 
With the arcade stick, I wouldn't mind picking up Tekken 6 for the right price. Realistically though I don't see much of a discount on this yet. I am not a huge Tekken fan so I'd be more interested in the fighting stick for use with Soul Calibur IV and Street Fighter IV.
 
Is there a way for me to just use a promotional code but now my gift card balance? Trying to pre-order something with a promo code (MW2) but I want my gift card balance available.
 
[quote name='OddLogik']HAHA at the 0% claim for the PS3 AC2

yeah was lucky to get one of those--now if i could get an xbox 1 that be sweet.

so far gotta say batman ce has been the best deal today or at least the only one that made me think of buying --passed though cuz i only want the game and for cheap. great game though played it on the ps3 for a few days and really liked it-
 
[quote name='Sigma']I just really hate Gamestop, I worked for the company for 5 years and have seen first hand how the company works. I don't like how they treat customers and I don't like how they treat employees. I'm sure for that whooping $200 on your edge card netted Lamestop a nice $500 by selling your games to someone else. I have nothing against used game sales, but I think they should be done like Goozex or here at CAG where the people selling the games have a say in how much they sell or trade there stuff for.

If you like Gamestop, by all means shop there and continue to let them rip you off and con you into pre-ordering games.[/QUOTE]

Jesus christ. STFU already and let people make their own decisions on where to shop. It's too bad you had a bad time working there. But people buy at Gamestop for their own reasons. And not all of them are getting ripped off or conned into getting preorders.

Just cause you ran into stupid people doesn't mean the posters here (or all gamestop shoppers) are idiots.

I'd pay half price for the bundle. I can't believe I missed it for $30. :bomb:

Nevermind, it looks like it's for the 360 bundle anyway. All my fighting games are on PS3 because I have the SFIV TE stick on that system.
 
Eh... I was gonna get Midnight Club. It'd still be cheaper to get it at $10 and then buy the Ultimate Content Pack at 1000 MSP, but I think I'll just hold off. I did nab The Jungle Book at $10 though. haha
 
[quote name='buckythekat']$10 off ACII? that's just sad Amazon[/QUOTE]
I know, shame on them from not giving away a great game a week after release. :roll:

last year cheapy revealed most of the amazon deals that would go live at 3am friday morning if memory serves me right. I would say that it might be getting modified and that they'll probably have a deal for every console like most retailers have.

I mean, comon now.. the deals they have listed for friday sure as hell won't be the ONLY deals they have.

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a lot of these pre-bf deals live again on friday + more deals.

So I would say that you should know by thanksgiving if they will have the deal again or not. because I remember the deals being posted on thanksgiving with more to come throughout the day (from cheapy) last year.

i'm pretty sure that's how it went, but i could always be wrong. anyone that did amazon for bf last year, feel free to correct me.
 
[quote name='pjb16']I know, shame on them from not giving away a great game a week after release. :roll:[/QUOTE]

This is black friday week. Left 4 Dead 2 came out last week too, and guess what, it's $44 and under with it being priced at $35 at best buy on friday.
 
Well today was very disappointing lets hope tomorrow has something decent. (like some psp game deals, xbla points, and forza 3):bouncy:
 
I, too, ordered Midnight Club: LA and had my full $20 game credit used towards the purchase, thus making the "lightning deal" only 7.99 off. However, I went through with it and emailed amazon, assuming that they'll give me the $10 credit back. They're usually pretty understanding.

I hope.
 
I was a little disappointed in the ACII discount offered but decided to pull the trigger, as I had the $40 GH5 bundle credit from this weekend. I figure the game'll be worth $9.98.

It better be. ;)
 
Well. We still got ToV and SO:TLH coming up. If ToV is on par with the $15 DOTD, I'm happy and if SO:TLH is around ~$20 I'd jump on that too.

Edit: For those who are trying get their $10-$20 promo on hold so it doesn't mess with you lightning deal discount, pre-order the PSP version of LEGO Harry Potter. Just from a quick 3 minute search, that's the lowest pre-order I was able to find to apply my $20 MW2 promo. Just a heads up.
 
I would've grabbed AC2 if it was 10 bucks cheaper. Watch the Limited Edition bundle of the latest installment in a classic series will be NBA 2K10.
 
Got Cabela for $24, like those type of games for some reason.

Still bummed I missed NFS.

Also, for those who got MC:LA for $10, keep it, still a good game. The Complete edition shouldn't change that!
 
[quote name='blackhole82']This is black friday week. Left 4 Dead 2 came out last week too, and guess what, it's $44 and under with it being priced at $35 at best buy on friday.[/QUOTE]
Ok, please show me where AC2 is cheaper than $50 on Friday.
 
stupid question time!

I've never really been into fighting games to the point where I buy the sticks, but are all fighting sticks generally the same? I mean, I have MvC2 and SC4 on 360, and if the tekken 6 bundle is another $30 deal, I'll def bite. So what i'm asking is will the tekken 6 stick work well with other fighting games? or solely with tekken?
 
well lets hope the bundle they offer is amazing--then we will be complaining about not getting the deal instead of not liking the deals.
 
[quote name='rust in peace']I would've grabbed AC2 if it was 10 bucks cheaper. Watch the Limited Edition bundle of the latest installment in a classic series will be NBA 2K10.[/QUOTE]
I'd actually prefer that since it's the 360 copy. :lol:
 
[quote name='AceSXE']Hey, I just ordered COD MW2 and the 12 month card for 90 bucks, how long will it take amazon to credit the 10 to my account?[/QUOTE]

A day or two after its shipped.
 
Everyone who bought Midnight Club LA: You can get everything in the Complete Edition for less than buying the Complete Edition. You got the game for $10, now go buy the DLC for $10. The Complete Edition retails for $30.
 
I was able to get Midnight Club LA and think it will be worth it since I have a few games on backorder, and it might be better to have a shorter game. The last Midnight Club game I played was DUB Edition and remember it being fun.
