Walmart will have the disc version of RE4 for $30 on Nov. 22nd. Amazon might price match it too.

Re: 2023 Black Friday Video Game Deals

I have almost everything on my list after the Best Buy sale. Dredge and Midnight Suns were two of my most wanted titles. I'll wait on God of War and Final Fantasy until next year. I'm going to stay up late Saturday night hoping to grab Hogwarts at Target.

I am still on the old generation (PS4 and Xbox One), but think it might be time to finally make the upgrade.

Re: 2023 Black Friday Video Game Deals

I think I bought the least ever this year:

Best Buy
Dredge Deluxe Edition PS5 for $19.99
Marvel's Midnight Suns PS5 for $19.99
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope Cosmic Edition for $14.99

Target
Hogwarts Legacy PS5 $30

Woot
Two Point Campus PS5 $5

Only things I'm looking for now are some kind of discount on PlayStation Plus Essential and some discounted Steam gift cards. I might pick up a 10% off PlayStation store gift card at Target.

No crazy deals this year. Lots of games are a bit overpriced this year at $40. I'd post a list of every store, but prices are about the same everything except for maybe a $5 difference.

Tempted by that Hogwarts Legacy but due to circumstances the only consoles out in the living room where my kids play are last gen and the switch, so got it for switch instead.

Target has a slight discount on gift cards which includes Nintendo Online memberships, though the nintendo online + family pack codes are ONLY good for first time subscribers, not for renewing a sub.

Thinking about the PS5 bundle with Spider-Man 2. If I get it at Target and use my RedCard I’ll get an additional $25 off and my wife and I have some gift cards we can possibly use towards it.

You probably should have skipped it then.

FYI

The switch game prices at Target are for physical and digital. I bought Donkey Kong and Kirby both digital codes $30 each.

The Switch version of Hogwarts isn’t unplayable apparently, but it’s a massive downgrade even compared to last generation consoles. Like, there are loading screens that last 40+ seconds on the Switch version in areas where there are zero loading screens in every other version.

I’d suggest watching the Digital Foundry video for a run down, but that version should be skipped.

I was hoping to catch Mortal Kombat 1 at a decent price. The lowest I have seen is $48 bucks.

Ugh... well I won't be playing it at least.

Guess I'll spring for the 30 dollar next gen one then...

I haven't bought anything. I thought about MK1 or Madden 24 but both games will more than likely be on Gamepass eventually. I can wait.

Hogwarts for $30 is an absolute steal.

Me neither. I might pull the trigger on Sonic Origins Plus, though.

If you feel like going in a Dollar General store, PSN and Xbox gift cards are 20% off in stores.

Thanks for the link… I scanned through their other deals and scored LOTR: Gollum (PS5) for $10. I hear it might be a turd of a game but it’s beautiful.

Edit to add: After showing my son the trailer and seeing a few terrible reviews, I cancelled the order.

PlayStation 5:
Hogwarts Legacy
The Last of Us Part I

So it's really 4.50 if you're a prime member and use the coupon.
