I've seen prices you people wouldn't believe. [laughs] Circuit Cities on fire across the country. I watched people kill for $3 waffle irons on Black Friday. All those discounts will expire, like [cough] tears in rain. Time to save.
The ghosts are real. Call of Duty: Ghosts is officially the next installment in the biggest franchise in gaming, and hitting all of your platforms current and future this November, or is it? The first pre-order bonuses and discounts for COD: Ghosts (Chosts?) have hit, and we're gonna break them down.
Predictably the PC SKU is the first to have a true discount. Head on over to Gamefly to grab $7 in credit for pre-ordering. [Gamefly]
The consoles deals are less direct. Basically you can lock up the game for regular price on Amazon and get some digital wallpapers in the process. But wait, don't scoff so quickly, remember Amazon has pre-order price guarantee. By pre-ordering you're guaranteed the lowest number Amazon hits before release. You can set it and forget it like that claymore at the top of the stairs. [PS3, 360, PC]
Naturally, stick with Moneysaver every day for future Ghosts deals. If you need something more immediate, grab Bioshock: Infinite for $45 on consoles and $50 on PC in your respective sections.
