OK, thanks, I'm in for one. Don't want to get too overloaded on games (got a couple on BF) but there's probably nothing else in today's deals that I'll go for, though I'll take a look at Star Wars. Still haven't played my Assassin's Creed 1.

I liked AC, LOVED AC2. They made a lot of improvements from the first game. That said, the combat is largely unchanged from the first game. So if that's a dealbreaker, you'll probably want to skip it.

WWE 13% claimed

Star Wars is $33.78. Not tempting enough for me for a middling-reviewed game.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Any idea on the price for the upcoming Saw deal? My daughter has a music performance tonight a half an hour before this goes live and I'm wondering if it is worth the hassle to ask someone else to grab a copy for me.

My guess is $30

But if you’re willing to wait a couple more months, I’m guessing you can find it in the bargain bins for $20

Based on the lousy reviews, I'm betting it'll be in the $10 bin before Summer.

Please rent this game. You'll be able to beat it in a weekend, but may not even have the desire to do so after playing for an hour or two. It's pretty bad.

I never said that I was going to miss the performance to buy a game. You must have misread what I posted. What I did ask was what people thought this would sell for. I'm contemplating getting it but I would much rather find someone that has it and is willing to trade it to me for another game.

Does anyone get married the day after Thanksgiving? You'd have to buy a tux/dress 2 sizes too big just to be sure you'd fit in it on the big day. Would you serve leftovers at the reception?

30 is my limit on Saw so I had to pass. If anyone wants my Ultimate Alliance 2 for PS3 I'll send it you you for a copy of Saw.

Thanks. I liked AC, but I got kind of tired of figuring out what they wanted me to do. And I found the combat kind of slow and awkward. Honestly, I'm kind of tired of stealth in general.

I may get around to trying it later...probably at the $15-20 level.

Sorry, man. Didn't mean to insult your parenthood or gamerhood. I've just been on some "girlfriend or Xbox" debates and was impressed that this thread was not favoring the game.

Snagged myself "World Ends..." I've heard nothing but praise for this game, so I'm excited to try it out.

I grabbed it yesterday at that $25 price (cheapest I have ever seen it), and thanks to Prime it just arrived at my doorstep a minute ago....

Snagged World Ends and Inside Bowser for 33 shipped. Will play, finish, and sell. I am no longer keeping games anymore.
