Bizarre. Steam had a flash sale up for Shadow Warrior (the new one) for $20 and suddenly now it’s a flash sale for the (terrible) Infestation: Survivor Stories aka the surreptitiously renamed The War Z of infamy. What the heck?

I saw that also, and was going WTF!

Crysis 3 is $12 on Origin. Cheapest I’ve ever seen it. Actually, the first time I’ve even seen it discounted.

Not an amazing deal like $20 for BF4, but it’s a much older game.

That’s strange, I have never had them do that - and I just bought The Secret World this morning as a digital download. Ah, the difference in my case is that although it was 1-click to buy and download I don’t have “1-click ordering” turned on for my account. So when I click to buy it always makes me log in with my amazon password. Maybe that’s the difference?

I was already logged into my Amazon account though. I only started noticing the behavior this week, when I tried to buy the “400 Days” DLC for The Walking Dead. Needless to say it kinda kills the “impulse buy” moment when you have to dig your card out of your wallet.

(sigh) buying the GOTY edition of Dishonored is cheaper than me buying only the DLC I am missing.

That’s because that $3.19 price was a huge mistake. ;-)

Even the $13.99 price is cheaper than me buying two $6.99 (reduced from $9.99) DLCs :(

Now you can see it even cheaper! Crysis 3 complete is $9.99 @ Amazon!

Bethesda has really dumb DLC pricing. It was slightly cheaper to buy the Skyrim complete thing than the DLCs separately. Same with Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

I’m really glad Bethesda games are finally on Amazon’s digital store. Their absence was really annoying.

You can save a buck on GamersGate if you don’t want the Lost Island map pack.

Also,Fallout 3 GOTY for $6.80 on Amazon, if anyone still hasn’t picked it up.

lost island is for mp right? it won’t add anything to the SP experience?

[Giaddon]

Correct.

[Rock8man]

12.99 for me as well. (Crysis 3).

[Joe_M]

Very strange. Shows $8.99 for me.

Looks like we have a new humble bundle with Chivalry, Sonic Racing Transformed (enjoyed this), torchlight, shank 2 and magicka wizard wars (free to play?). Site is currently broken though, might not be meant to start yet.

As a general comment, i was really disappointed in black friday this year from all sources. Amazon especially was, without a better term, SHIT. 90% of the deals were very small discounts, made to look larger by comparing them to the MSRP when the pre black friday price was much lower than that.

Steam sale was also so-so. Hopefully they have some better stuff coming on the so called cyber monday.
