Black Friday spoils.

[Exius Xavarus]

So, the question is simple: What'd you manage to get your hands on during Black Friday at an awesome bargain?

I managed to get a brand new 250Gb Xbox 360 with Forza Motorsports 4, Black Ops II and Skyrim(the three games were all free, bundled with the Xbox as the Black Friday special) all for a pretty $30 USD. It was actually $120 but a friend of mine bought Forza 4 and Black Ops II from me for $45 each. I have absolutely 0 interest in Black Ops II and Forza, so awesome deal for me. But I also managed to nab Tales of Vesperia, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary and Halo 3: ODST for a nice 50 bucks since it was also a Buy 2 Get 1 Free special for pre-owned games.

Now, I've got an additional, optional question: Has anyone got some decent exclusive titles I can get my hands on? I know about Gears and Witcher and that jazz, but are there some special exclusives I should go check out since I now have an Xbox 360?(any and all suggestions that are not Xbox 360 exclusive will be ignored}

The bundle version of Forza 4 is the so called "Essentials Edition" with about half the content cut out from it (so it would fit on one disc), so it's not worth $45 by a long shot (it's not even worth as much as a new retail copy of Forza 4).

If your friend wants to make it comparable with the full game, they're going to have to spend another $20 or so to buy the missing content from the Marketplace, bringing their total spend to around $65, which is more than this 13 month old game was at launch and about $40 dollars more than if they'd bought it new from a shop.

I thought we were gonna talk about what we got on Black Friday...not sigh in jealously at your apparent amazing deal and subsequent selling of games to friend which as above user slyly hints at, you seemed to rip off.

If that's what you wanted to do, then that's what you would have done. I was talking about what I got on Black Friday. Seeing as I've never seen this game before, I wasn't aware what it actually cost. And he's the one who offered me the money, I never set the price. How about we try not to throw around accusations, please. If he paid me more than the game is worth, then I can easily get with him and rectify the problem, it really is not that difficult. The question was what we got on Black Friday for an amazing deal. Which usually pertains to to why it was an amazing deal. If you're not going to say anything relevant to the topic I brought up, then kindly do not come back.

Are you kupo for Kupo Nuts?

Almost as awesome as me nearly getting trampled by people that weren't too receptive to the fact that I was guarding the exit to the area with the video games and DVDs because they didn't want to get in line.

I don't get black friday at all. And I'm very glad that we don't have it over here. Consumerism at it's worst, if you ask me.

Picked up Dishonered for 20 bucks. I've been counting my pennies recently so that was good.

As far as exclusives go, Alan Wake is a fun ride. Literally can't think of anything else.

I got the soul of an overworked and exhausted Walmart employee. It seems Walmart was just giving them away.

 

[SilverStrike]

I got Dishonoured for ten pounds. I call that a pretty heavy win.
Also, my wallet is weeping at the autumn Steam sale..

 

[Aethren]

Didn't get anything, no moneys. T_T

Steam autumn sale is going on, but the games I actually want, Recettear and FTL, aren't even on sale, not that I can afford them anyway. Saint's Row the Third as well, but it'd take until Christmas to download.

I bought PS Vita AC:L bundle, PS Allstar for pretty good price on Amazon.

In comfort of my bed.

 

[Lt._nefarious]

Serious Sam 3, The Walking Dead, They Bleed Pixels, Terraria, EYE Divine Cybermancy, Symphony and QUBE for £30... Good deal considering Serious Sam 3 and the Walking Dead generally cost more than that themselves...

 

[GreyMorality]

I got Borderlands 2 and Dishonored for $26 so definitely enjoying I managed to get that.

 

[BloatedGuppy]

Dishonored for $20
Saints Row 3 with all DLC for $12
RAGE for $5

Kind of hoping Endless Space goes on sale, I could use a dash of strategy to leaven all these shooters.

 

[Souplex]

A bagel with butter for breakfast.
An Italian rice ball for dinner.
An Ice Cream Sandwich.
That was all the money I spent on black Friday.

I got To the Moon yesterday, played it all last night and shed many a manly tear.

Also: EYE Divine Cybermancy, two copies of Dark Souls (was $15 on Amazon, got a copy for a friend and one for me), and The Basement Collection. I put 20 hours into Binding of Isaac last month, so figured I could treat myself with more Edmund McMillen weirdlyness.

 

[thiosk]

I got free coffee at the lululemon!

Didnt buy anything though. Too expensive for butt cling shorts.

 

[Veldel]

I was also working at walmart inside electronics with the madhouse of ppl circling me and my co workers and i think i got PTSD from it.... and lack of sleep didn't help...


OT: had my manager give me one of the dumb 1hour guerentee things for a tv i needed then hid it while the horde of nutcases attacked for the nooks...
