    I will definitely put that $299 PS3 bundle at the top of my list. I will likely trade LBP in, because I'm not into creating stuff to play; but I missed out on the whole PS2 era, so the GoW collection will keep me busy while I pick up all the other PS3 exclusives.

    Dead Space Extraction is 20 bucks new and Crisis Core is 10.

    Sound very tempting.

    Ugh, Black Friday has become a sore disappointment this year...

    Screw it. I'm just gonna rush into Amazon and grab whatever the hell I want.

    @(Starman) Starman: The only reason I'm so excited for Black Friday this year is because I don't have to work it. I can enjoy my Thanksgiving and not have to worry about getting up at 3am and working 20 hours. Whoohoo!

    But yeah, I'll sit at home comfortably and order from Amazon--and get free shipping, and no tax.

    Do you know if it's true that Amazon matches all Black Friday deals?

    Advertising that you're bundling three games with the PS3 and only offering two is blatant false advertising and they need to be called out on it by the media or legally.

    @gordiehowe5:
    I totally overlooked the fact that the god of war bundle was one game. It's still two discs right? I think they can still get away on a technicality because its two games in one package.

    @gordiehowe5: I noticed that too, and thought that it was particularly scummy. It's not false per se, but certainly misleading. I mean, someone actually took the time to photoshop 2 separate PS3 boxes for the GoW collection. They certainly knew what they were doing.

    This is Gamestop though. I don't think any of us are surprised, really. Just think of how many of those copies will be sold opened because it was "the last copy".

    Dude, what?? I've had Dead Space Extraction on my Goozex list F-O-R-E-V-E-R and I'm just going to delete it off my list and snag it for that price. I'd rather buy it new to promote good games like that being made instead of buying it used anyway.

    "Solid?" Try "underwhelming." I'm definitely not willing to go deal with a mob of crazed shoppers for $10 or $20 off a bunch of (mostly) older games. The Left 4 Dead 2 and ODST prices are good, but other than that...

    Fun fact: Page 7 blatantly lies about the price of the AC/DC Track Pack.

    Mostly shovelware at Walmart. Its the thought that counts I guess?

    for those who live in the Northwest, today is the last day for Fred Meyer's $30 off any purchase over $150. They have the coupons in store. Which means a shiny new PS3 or 360 for 30 bucks cheaper than usual

    I hope a lot of people who haven't had the chance or good enough rig to experience Crysis/Warhead pick it up on the weekend Steam deal (#4 right now on its top sellers). They're amazing games. Great open-world-esque design, great action setpieces, still either best or second-best graphics ever (in my experience, only Killzone 2, suprisingly, gives Crysis/Warhead a run for its money), top-five FPS AI, and numerous ways to play the game using the different suit powers. #weekendcoupons

    I'm going to guess supermarket is one of those words that doesn't mean the same thing on both sides of the pond. Surely they're not selling PS3's next to the cabbage and ground beef, right? #weekendcoupons

    @jayislost: Supermarkets tend to sell everything these days, at least the bigger ones. The one I took the photo in is one of the bigger ones in the area. Unfortunately, I'm a shelf monkey there and have to wait like everyone else before I find out about these deals from Electronics department :(

    Hypermarket is a good term for it, as Razorback says. #weekendcoupons

    @Jon: Hypermarket, huh? I like that. It's strange to hear someone say they bought electronics at a supermarket. Sure, Walmart has the aforementioned cabbage, ground beef and PS3's, too, but I don't think anyone calls them a supermarket. Superstore, maybe? #weekendcoupons

    Not sure if this matters to you kids, but I read those Beatles Rock Band bundles come with Generation 1 peripherals. Most reviews on the site are pretty pissed about it, they assumed since it's a new RB title it should come with newer RB instruments. #weekendcoupons
