@Jargon True. Will buy.

Speaking of which, Newegg is offering $12 off of all pre-orders over $49.99, including NSMB U, Monster Hunter Ultimate, Pikmin 3, and the Pro controller!

Code: BTEJNNJ35 (from CAG)

@Anand Hmm... that's probably the best we are going to see for these games at launch, right?

Newegg has been nailing it lately. I feel like these things move in cycles... first it was Amazon, then K-Mart, now Newegg...

@Zero
Seems like it to me. It's possible that we'll see some crazy bundle deals when Wii U launches, but probably not. Even if we do, we'll probably know early enough to cancel the Newegg order.

Yeah, I agree about the cyclical thing (and your specific progression). Amazon hasn't been that great for about a year. K-Mart had great deals, but I think they consciously stopped them (when the guy who posted on CAG stopped posting on CAG). And Newegg has been rocking the house. They didn't even used to CARRY that many games, if memory serves.

Hmm, btw you need to sign up for their email list for that code to work, as well as have an account on Newegg (I do.) I just signed up for the email list, they said it will take 24 hours to process.
10/02/12, 05:20   
@Zero How did you sign up? I'm already signed up but the code doesn't work.

If anyone sees any Halo 4 deals, post them in here! I know there's one on Microsoft's site where you get $25 of in-store credit, but it seems a little fishy.
10/02/12, 06:49   
@Marsh I don't know, when I went to use the code it said you had to sign up and there was some link to signing up or whatever.
10/02/12, 07:20   
Oh. I forgot to mention that like every Disney game is $20 at Toys R Us.

I don't know if thats been said already, or if anyone cares at all.
10/02/12, 12:48   
Nobody cares. Unless it affects Epic Mickey 2?

I didn't know about the e-mail thing for the Newegg deal. I just tried it, and it worked.

Sign up, 'Stache! Pro Controller and MH3U, $38 and $48 shipped, respectively!

Got an email...after somehow signing up for more emails? I dunno, very weird but they emailed me today with promo code for the two games I added to my cart recently. It's like it knows...

@Anand

Shipping for a new game? Please. Too many horror stories outweigh the "oh, I'll just go to the store now, it'll be there, and then I'll be playing it." Look how long it took some folks to get Last Story. No wayskis!
10/03/12, 01:54   
@Mr_Mustache I've gotten a ton of games shipped, and that was by far the longest it's ever taken to get one. And it was still only like 2 weeks after launch. And it was for $30 shipped anyway!
10/03/12, 02:10   
@Mr_Mustache I tend to receive my shipped games the week of release. If not the day of release. That's worth saving big money.

...aren't you supposed to be saving money right now?!
10/03/12, 02:30   
@Zero

I'm supposed to be doing a lot of things now.
10/03/12, 02:34   
@Mr_Mustache
At the rate I open games, I wouldn't mind if it took years! Speaking of which, my launch pre-order of New Super Mario Bros. 2 just shipped from Deep Discount! $25! Yay, Deep Discount!
10/03/12, 02:35   
@Mr_Mustache Then start saving! Before you know it you will be saving hundreds of dollars on games like Anand and I! And you will learn some patience too! Except not that much patience, because shipped games tend to arrive lightning fast.
10/03/12, 02:36   
@Zero

Oh, I have OODLES of patience. OODLES.

Massive Activision sale on gog.com

So many good games on there. I'm very tempted by 6 of them (the graphical Zork games, the Phantasmagoria games, and Arcanum), it would be under $20, but I can't justify it given how I already have RPGs and adventure games I haven't played in my backlog.

In any case, Zork: Grand Inquisitor I have played before, and it is very well done and funny. Michael McKean plays a lantern! Definitely check it out if you are looking for an adventure game to play.

@Guillaume

Return to Zork and particularly Phantasmagoria are some of the worst games I've ever played. Phantasmagoria at least is laughably bad, but still not worth buying imo
