So far I ordered Fire Emblem Awakening, Super Mario 3D Land, and Animal Crossing New Leaf off Amazon for the New blue/black 3DS XL I got last night at Target along with Pokemon X for my girl and The Legend of Zelda A Link Between Worlds for me. I also ordered my youngest daughter Grand Theft Auto 5 for the PS3 off Amazon as well. I missed the $25 The Last of Us deal Amazon had or I would have ordered that as well.

I got to see Pokemon X in action last night as my girl played it and it looked really good. I got to play some Zelda today and it looked awesome. Loving the 3D.

So what did you buy?

Not a whole lot this year; after a PS4 purchase and a wedding coming up I had to cut back. Which actually was okay as there wasn't much I cared to take advantage of this year.

Batman: Arkham Origins (Amazon - $25)

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix (GameStop - $20)

Will be watching throughout the day for other deals.

I haven't really bought anything. I was going to buy a double pack of Fallout 3 GOTY edition and New Vegas Ultimate for 40 bucks, but decided that no deal is worth waiting in line that long.

Just Battlefield 4 Deluxe Edition that includes the base game + china rising among other bonuses on Origin it was half off the usual $70 plus used a additional $10 off promo code so came out to $27.21 since origin charges tax for some reason. Downloading now its a big download but my internet is fast enough it should only take an hour or so to finish

Ouch, I did not know Origin charged taxes. I was shocked at how much it cost me at Target for what I bought due to taxes. I normally buy everything off Amazon, so the $16 taxes was a shock to me. Told my girl when I got home "Now I remember why I always buy off the net".

I had over 300 people in front on me at Target, but once they opened the doors, we got in fast and I got out fast.

Zombie U $15, Beyond: Two Souls $35, and Tomb Raider $15; got those on Best Buy online

Walmart had Tomb Raider for $10 and Beyond: Two Souls for $25, that would have saved me $15, but I didn't want to go to Walmart on Black Friday, Best Buy had free shipping and saved me the trouble of having to battle through the store. They also had Last Of Us for the same price as Beyond: Two Souls but I'll pass on that game, for now, I haven't been too impressed with what I've seen of it so far and my experience with Naughty Dog games this gen hasn't been on par with all the hype of their other games.

Except Amazon charges Taxes tax for me to since I live in NY and that not the only state they do it for lucky your in a state they don't charge tax for. I tend to go for third party sellers since they don't charge. Anyways Its not really a big deal for origin since its small amounts only $2.21 in tax. Its just weird that they do since steam never charged me for tax and there a direct competitor in selling digital games. I spend way more money steam so good thing they don't lol.

I got this all before black friday on Amazon....

GTAV (PS3) - $33 I bought it on tuesday in a library while studying organic chemistry.

Last of Us (PS3) - $25 I bought it around 10 AM on thanksgiving

Killer is Dead (PS3) - $22 I bought it when I woke up on Thanksgiving

God of War Ascension - $20 I bought it when I woke up on Thanksgiving

Tomb Raider (PS3) - $15 Bought when I woke up on Thanksgiving

XBOX 360 4GB - $99 - Brought my girlfriend home after dinner with her family, and then went out to see if the $99 360 deal was going on at Walmart. They had no more in stock. I was disappointed and came home to see a lightning deal on amazon that was already 100% claimed which made me more disappointed. I was put on a waitlist, and an hour later I got a notification to buy one.

Best launch line-up since the original XBOX. Aside from a new i-pod, my whole week has been XBOX week. Black Flag sucks though. Probably won't keep it.

It seems to me deals sucked this year, so I didn't really pay attention to any of them.

The only deal I managed to get game wise was a one year sub of PS Plus for $30. Due to it being stackable, I'm good till July 2015.

That said, this is a very heavy gaming Christmas for my family. Not counting the PS4 launch as I'm already playing it, here's what will be under the tree:
NFS Rivals (PS4) - For me; guessing on this one
Just Dance 2014 (PS4) - for my wife, she loves these games
Disney Inifinty (PS3) - For my the entire family; got it half off
- Rapaunzel figure - for my 6 year old
- Jack Skeleton figure - for my wife
- Wreck it Ralph figure - for me
- Frozen figure set - for my wife and 6 year old
- 7 power discs via eBay
My Little Pony (Leapster Explorer) - for my 6 year old
Nintendogs (3DS) - for my 6 year old

I only got Tales of Xillia. Couldn't resist that 20 dollar price.

I was also going to buy Dragon's Crown, but I figured I'd see if they had it at my local rental store (since I have a free rental coupon there anyway).

I picked up Dishonored GOTY edition at Amazon for $20 on thanksgiving day. I've been putting off playing this gem because I was up until recently in college.

I also picked up a couple blu-rays on sale for $8 each (Pacific Rim!!!!!!!).

I got BF4 for XB1 today for $39.99 at Walmart. I showed them a GameStop ad for the 360 version hoping they would match it on the XB1 version and they did. =)

It doesn't hurt to ask while there is confusion of both systems on the market.

They're actually $150 and still available all weekend. You could also try price matching it at Walmart.

I do understand what you mean, they're hot items. At least with LBW, you didn't pick up all mediocre games :P

I got my first PS4 Platinum, in the free PS+ game Resogun. It's a throwback to classic shooters like Defender...it sucked me in. :P

I picked up PS+ for $30.

Best launch line-up since the original XBOX. Aside from a new i-pod, my whole week has been XBOX week. Black Flag sucks though. Probably won't keep it.

I don't think it sucks but I really hate that they seem to be in love with those idiotic chase sequences. There 3 of them in the first chapter (Hell, the damn game begins with one) on top of the fact that you have to chase down all of the shantys and the courier..(Not required, I know, it would have been better to leave them as side activities)

And following someone is always a pain in the ass. They wouldn't be so bad but it seems like the designers are in love with bullshit proximity limitations and the like. I hate that shit. It isn't even that it's hard to do, it's just annoying to see a timing prompt flash up on the screen every three seconds.

It doesn't seem that the assassinations are all that either (from what I've seen) it's basically a guy you need to kill in the middle of one of those restricted zones.

And the lead character is bewildering, Although not technically trained as an Assassin, how does he have all of an assassins training?

Still, it looks to be a better Assassin's Creed game than the last two. I miss Italy though. I'm sticking with it for now.

I bought Deadly Premonition on the PC, and it'll be the only thing I buy from the looks of things.

The game is pretty awesome.
