…with a steelbook, for anyone who’s into that.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

That is an amazing price for a truly great and special game. It’s so cool.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I sold my PS5 copy after I beat it. Agreed that it's an excellent game, but I'll be waiting for it to hit Game Pass before I revisit it. :)

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I would get it if I could ever get a PS5....

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Day 11 is NBA2K22: $19.99 - $24.99, depending on platform. Includes a steelbook.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I picked up a copy of The Falconer Day One Edition at Best Buy for $9.99 (and thought that was the DotD).

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Current Epic store PC game sale has some insane prices-

As I said in the other thread I picked up:

Fenyx Rising- $14
AC: Valhalla- $20
Eternal Cylinder- $13

A lot of good stuff there. I think I'm going to get more before it's over.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Saints Row 4 is like $2.50 on the Nintendo eShop.

Don't need it on the switch, probably won't play it.

Had to get it for that price

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Day 12 at Best Buy is Far Cry 6 for $24.99.

Me, every December : “Fuck! I will never buy an Ubisoft game at launch again!”
Me, every September: “Guess what I just pre-ordered…”

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Lol seriously! Between backlog, price drops, and sales, I'm learning to shop video games like I shop at Kohl's - never pay full (60$) price.
Even the games that retail for 20-40 eventually (and not all that slowly) drop.
Especially, for some reason, Ubisoft.

Costco.com has ~$100 of Microsoft/Xbox credit for $80 through the end of today. Digital delivery within an hour, and you can choose 1 $100 code or 4x25 codes. Limit 2. (Their regular price is 90 for 100 which is still a savings.)

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

You can use these to pay for Live, right? Or are there still frequent better deals on Live? I stocked up on $20-30 deals years ago but I’m close to expiring again.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Not sure honestly...Maybe? Because they add credit to your MS account, so if you're auto-paying for Live, it'll take it from there?
But please don't quote me or make a buying decision solely on my words because I'm honestly not sure.
I converted from Live Gold to Game Pass a couple years back and since then I just look for deals on GPU and stock up on those.
They also have a deal on Game Pass Unlimited, 2 pack of 3 month cards, for $70 (their regular price, $80, retail, $90.) That's not the best price I've ever seen, I've gotten them before for 20-25 for a 3 month, but that's the best price I see right now (without working too hard at price hunting.)

These prices expire today, 12/20/21. Sorry for just now mentioning them. But these, at least the GPU, fluctuate a bit in price (I notice I missed Amazon having them for 25 or 30 a couple weeks ago.)

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Day 13 at Best Buy is Super Mario Bros. I Deluxe for $29.99.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Day 14 : A really expensive Xbox controller

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

:lol:

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

As long as you don't get one with the A button issues, it's totally worth it. Sadly, chances are about 50/50.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I had one with a bumper issue - would either not register I pressed it or would register I pressed it twice.

The replacement, one of the rubber selectors on the back tore off, so I had to glue it back on.

Other than that, pretty awesome controller with good weight.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Day 15 is Call of Duty: Vanguard, but either it’s a lackluster $49.99 for all platforms, or the prices haven’t populated yet.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Please elaborate.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

From what I’ve read, the “A” button on some Elite v2 controllers can be very fussy, ignoring light button presses or if the button is pressed at an angle.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Seems to be riddled with production issues that Microsoft refuses to address publicly. First one I bought would only register the A button pressed about 1/3 of the time. Had to push it hard. Or as Music pointed out, bumper issues. On other more game-centric forums, lots of people have talked about having to exchange theirs 2 or 3 times before they got one without a problem.
It's a damn good controller, though. Maybe the Elite 3 will be even better.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

I'm surprised they didn't come out with the Elite 3 for Halo and the holidays this year.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
 

Why bother when they can still sell the Elite 2 and controllers in different colors? ;)
