Yeah, I broke down and got Force Unleashed 2 Collector's Edition for $8.99. Really can't beat that price.

I bit on Assassin's Creed Revelations. Now that I'm done with Saints Row I want something else to play and have always been a fan of the series.

I didn't see a sale price on assassin's creed revelations, just 35 for the game guide.

Acording to the calendar on their website, it's games only.

I tell myself that every time I buy a new release game and weeks later see it for half price. I never learn.

Rage has dropped to $22.48, which is cheaper than the lightning deal of $25 a couple days back.

My 7-year-old son has completely beaten this game several times over. He loves it. I highly recommend it, especially at this price. It would be a great stocking stuffer for the kids.

You're also a bigger douche than you were a couple days ago.

Fucking insane prices. I thought i was doing good this year to restrain myself and only pay $20 for releases, but I still end up over paying for this shit. I guess $9.99 will be my new price point in 2012. Anyone who pays $60 bucks for a game these days is crazy.

Tempted by El Shaddai at $20, but I really wasn't crazy about the demo. I also have way too many games in progress at the moment. I think I'll wait for it to hit $10 next year.

I wish I had checked this thread earlier, before it was completely sold out.

Looks very cool, but the deal isn't as sweet as Amazon initially makes it look. They're showing an SRP of $50, but Gamestop and Newegg have it for $30. Best Buy is showing $40. It's all over the map.
