Damn. Helluva deal... if I didn't still have DR3 in the shrink wrap from this time last year. I'm gonna show some restraint this time. Maybe get it cheaper down the line.

Because of the holiday theme, I bet it gets really cheap, really fast.

Homefront Revolution steelbook is $8 after GCU. The game can't be THAT bad, can it?

Bought it this morning while picking up a gift for my nephew. Several posts in the game deals Reddit thread said it wasn't really that bad, but to be fair others said it was total shit. I was interested in the game when it came out so I'm willing to take a chance on it for $8.

A lot of the reviews were scathing on Homefrnt which is a shame because the concept, story and trailers looked good. But there was some huge "update a while back....but doubt it did some major overall to make the game better.

Well fudge. I'll pop it in when I've got a lull between games (not anytime soon, though) and if I even get a couple hours out of it I'll be happy. Then I can trade it in for a quarter and be done with it.

Man, the Homefront games can't catch a break. Polygon ran a pretty extensive article detailing what went wrong with the development of the original game:
http://www.polygon.com/2012/11/1/356...os-studios-thq

The Guardian has an article on Homefront: The Revolution . The development team had to weather THQ collapsing and then leaving Crytek after they stopped getting paid.

I picked up a copy of the Goliath Edition for $32 from Best Buy for one of my son's Christmas presents. He will enjoy the RC tank and I can give the game a spin sometime.

I paid 8.99 for a used copy of Homefront and feel like I got my money's worth. Granted I didn't play it until after the huge patch came out, but I experienced very little problems with stability. I think most of the technical issues are fixed. I played it all the way through to the end. Glad I didn't pay full price but 10-20 dollars is a pretty good deal IMO.

Get an external hard drive for $49, but this seems to be an older model, I think?

Edit: Here's the brick seek. Just insert your zip code and you'll see if they're available in Walmarts near you.

Thanks, figured that out last night when brickseek was showing zero on hand, but Walmart.com said I could order it for in store pick up.

The two links in original post by EinCB are the same item, but one is an older version, and has a different sku.

None of the Walmart stores around me have the older drive which is showing $40 on brickseek (although someone on CAG reported finding it in store for $25). The newer version shows $49 on brickseek, and a couple of the local stores show on hand stock.

I ordered it last night, but it still shows processing this morning. I might go by the other store and see if I can just pick it up off the shelf today before work. $49 for 2TB drive is okay with me especially seeing as my current 1TB external on the Xbox One is full.

Assassin's Creed The Ezio Collection is also $35 ($28 w/GCU) and comes with a movie ticket (although the movie is sitting around 20% on RT )

Awesome, thanks for the heads up, I'll be picking up the Ezio Collection. Too damn bad about the movie though. Still, for a free ticket, I still may check it out.

Rock Band Rivals full band kit and game for 99.99 at Amazon for both the One and the PS4.

Looks like a lot of piss poor reviews for the peripherals. I am on the verge of cancelling my order.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

FWIW, latest review I heard about the Assassin's Creed movie was "awesome" and "one of my favorite movies".
That was from my 14 year old son who's never played any of the games (though he knows their concept) and saw the movie with a friend, so take it as you will

What's the deal with this gen's music game hardware? Seems like both GH and RB have gotten at the least inconsistent reviews of the hardware.
