Wal Mart has some of their games for $40 - $42 right now. Super Smash Bros, GTAV, etc. They also have a ton of preorders for that price as well. Uncharted 4, Kingdom Hearts 3, MGS5, etc. Don't know if the preorders will hold, but the other ones you should be able to order for in store pickup. I grabbed Batman Arkham Knight Limited Edition preorder on PS4 for $62.76.

Thanks for posting mattysemo. If it's still live on my lunch break, I'm going to swing by Best Buy to price match Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze. I've been watching for that to drop below $40 forever and it never goes on sale.

I ordered Kingdom Hearts on PS4. I went ahead and requested price matches on Amazon for most of the others. Saving tax would tip the scale on getting a couple more.

Amazon has pricematched Walmart's possible mispriced preorder for Uncharted 4. $43.40!

Yep, Amazon is starting to match now as well. Super Smash is down to $41.05, Farcry 4 is $40.52. This could start to get interesting.

Amazon has already pulled this from ordering.

That didn't last long, Uncharted is back up to $59.99

I got in on this. Saved $5 on Uncharted 4, yippie!

Wish I could have gotten in on Arkham Knight LE though. :sad:

I wouldn't worry too much about it. I fully expect my order to be canceled, just like they did with the AC3 preorder mistake from a couple years ago.

It looks like the Wal Mart madness is over. Everything seems to be back to normal prices :(

Kingdom Hearts 3 on PS4 & XB1 is $40.99 right now on Amazon. Looks like they are price matching Target's mistake.

Thanks, locked in a preorder. Not sure if I care enough about the game to keep it, but might as well.

Cool thanks. Never played a Kingdom Hearts game before bit butwas always interested. At that price order price, why not?

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 
Thanks. I didn't want to order from Target to save just a few bucks off the GCU price, but from Amazon, sure I'm up for that. :up:

Kingdom Hearts are two of my favorite PS2 games even with the frustrations and slow, slow starts.

XB1 only: Game of Thrones season pass is currently free to install if you buy (or already own) episode 1. Must be done from the console. Very likely a mistake, so hurry.

If I hadn't already bought the Telltale bundle, I'd be all over that.
Keep in mind though if you buy Episode One for this reason that apparently Microsoft now has the ability to take back free purchases made by mistake. They did it once before when some game was free by mistake.

Tempted to risk it and buy episode one for the glitch, but given my backlog and Deckers warning, I'll go distract myself on something else.

NewEgg has preorders of Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (Wii U) for $34.99 if you use the code EMCAKPA54.

PlayStation TV (y'know, the thing that lets you play Vita games on your big-screen) is $59.99 today at Best Buy.

Or remote play PS4 games in an alternate room.

Need to see if that thing is compatible with DS4 yet.

Bought one from Best Buy this morning. Too bad it doesn't take the gamers club 20% off.

Gonna use it to play PS4 in another room in the house when kids are on big screen. Pretty sure it is compatible with PS4 controller.

Sounds like it:

How do the “Share” and “Option” buttons work on the DualShock 4 controller when used on PS TV?
The “Share” button on the DualShock 4 operates like the “Select” button on the DualShock 3; the “Option” button on the DualShock 4 functions like the “Start” button on the DualShock 3. Please note, PS4’s ‘Share’ functionality is not available on PS TV.

Same price on amazon for the PS TV.

I've been using mine a bit lately for Resident Evil and Grim Fandango (via remote play/PS4)

Unless you're hardwired, don't even think about trying a "fast reflex game", the driving in GTA V, for instance, is way off.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 
I was just going to post that. I don't have one but I've read a lot on it. It definitely has lag issues. Sometimes I don't think even being hardwired helps. YMMV of course.

Cool, but I'm sticking with Best Buy in case it doesn't work well in my house. Want to be able to return it easily
