Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
I'm not sure, I looked back at when I re-purchased the Dragon Age games on Origin and I paid $14.99 for it as well, as people recommended the Awakenings DLC. I paid $5.99 for the standalone Dragon Age 2. I don't know if it's been any cheaper on Steam but there should be Steam sales shortly and you can see if it might be on sale there.
Still trying to figure out DLC though. I've heard a lot of talk about Mass Effect 2 DLC but cannot find a version that includes the DLC. I can't find the DLC separate either. Weird.

Target will give you a $15 gift card if you buy Smash for the Wii U between Thursday and Saturday.
It's not Smash-specific, but Toys R Us has a buy-one-get-one-40% sale that you could use to get a good price.
$35.99 as an eBay Daily Deal tomorrow (9 PM Pacific/12 AM Eastern).

Geez, microsoftstore.com is getting hammered with this Xbox One deal, and for good reason -- you really do get to choose any game!

NewEgg has met Microsoft's price drop on eBay. New PS4s for $329 shipped.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
I've been on there for over 90 minutes now. Took about fifteen minutes just to get my shit in the cart. Have been trying to checkout ever since. I sometimes get as far as the payment page before it just decides to send me back to the front page. Once it even cleared my cart and I had to start THAT process over. It literally just reset to the 'Traffic is heavy right now' screen in the middle of loading the 'Gathering order details' page.
It's like Microsoft decided online shoppers were missing out on the true Black Friday experience of going to a big city Walmart when the doors open for doorbusters and decided to replicate that ordeal in virtual form.
Update: Finally got my order through after an hour and 40 minutes. It goofed up again on the order confirmation page and I almost lost it, but I got the order confirmation email. I wouldn't have put up with it, but they were offering full price stuff for the 'free game'... I got Far Cry 4, which I was planning on getting anyway (and at current price point makes this a better deal for me than the Target one).

Screw this, I'm going to bed. I tried ordering through a proxy server, tried processing my order over the phone (on hold for 45 min and counting). Nothing.
Worst online shopping experience ever. How does a company as huge as Microsoft not have the server capacity to handle the traffic they should have expected? I'm sure Amazon gets an absurd more amount of traffic and I've never had an issue with their site.

Oh, I absolutely agree. I devolved to cursing and yelling at the monitor at one point.

I had the console and Sunset Overdrive in my cart right at midnight, spent around 40 minutes trying/failing to check out, and gave up. I ordered the Assassins Creed bundle from Amazon instead. My kid brother is on his own for Sunset Overdrive now.
