Re: THE MEGA VG DEALS thread
Oct 17th:
Hardware
• Technically not a sale, although the $349.99, 250 GB PS3 Slim could be construed as getting another 130 GB of hard drive space for just $50. Amazon has it listed, release date is Nov. 3 but you probably already knew that. [Dealzon]
• If you need hardware other than a hard drive, there are two bundles to consider from SonyStyle. An 80GB PS3 with two DualShocks for $249.99, or the 160GB/Uncharted/2 DualShock bundle for $349.99. Free shipping on both. [Dealzon]
• Also, should you be in the market for a Wii MotionPlus (or an additional controller) consider the bundle being offered by Amazon. It's $56.99 but you get Wii Sports Resort with two MotionPlus Controllers. It's $10 more than the game's standard package but the two controllers is a bargain, especially when one goes for $19.99 [Dealzon]
Software
• Friendly reminder, The Toys R Us buy 2, get 1 free deal ends today. All titles eligible.
• As you may know already, Amazon's gotten into the 3:2 act. You've got to pick from an eligible list so the offer is not as comprehensive as the Toys R Us deal, but it's still a deal. [Amazon]
• You might also have seen that Gordon Freeman triumphed over Mario in GameSpot's greatest hero contest. To celebrate, Steam's offering all Half-Life games at 55.8 percent off, that figure representing Freeman's winning percentage of votes. [Steam]
• Steam's other sale this weekend is a 25 percent off deal on the Red Faction games. Red Faction: Guerrilla is $29.99, and a bundle of it, Red Faction and Red Faction II is $44.97. [Steam]
• While not a part of Amazon's 3:2 sale, DJ Hero is the subject of its own special deal. Use coupon DJHERO10 to preorder the game/turntable bundle for $108.99, or $11 off the launch price. [TechDealDigger]
• Finally, another reminder, the GameStop offer to get Brütal Legend or Need for Speed: Shift for $19.99 with two trade-ins from a most-wanted list, and its $10 and $20 bounties on trade-ins of 3 or 4 games, respectively, is still on and ends Oct. 25. [GameStop]
