No worky...
DonWii @ Dec 18th 2008 1:26PM
oh well
Rollins @ Dec 18th 2008 12:55PM
I'd love a good deal on the console itself. Unfortunately it doesn't look like that's happening.
Deck @ Dec 18th 2008 8:03PM
You hit the nail on the head right there.
343 Guilty Fart @ Dec 18th 2008 1:00PM
I can't WAIT to get Spiderman on HD-DVD at 8pm!!
dabamf @ Dec 18th 2008 1:02PM
Well done.
Gman @ Dec 18th 2008 2:29PM
HD DVD has been dead since May.
You should know this if you own a PS3 and read Joystiq.
SoulBlade @ Dec 18th 2008 2:32PM
Gman, look over your head.
343 Guilty Fart @ Dec 18th 2008 3:23PM
Gman- you should know that the internet is full of sarcasm and lies. You would know this if you read Joystiq.
Reader @ Dec 18th 2008 10:26PM
Blu-Ray won?! This is madness!
dabamf @ Dec 18th 2008 1:02PM
Damn $10 for Brothers at Arms that's crazy!
Haha @ 343! +1 sir!
cantbeatmegaman @ Dec 18th 2008 1:05PM
Mamma mia? Mario?
Jimmijam @ Dec 18th 2008 1:16PM
Probably "Mamamia" the movie.
LaughingTarget @ Dec 18th 2008 1:17PM
Or a PS3 branded ABBA CD.
ravishi @ Dec 18th 2008 1:53PM
i don't think there will be any blu-ray movies. this one will most likely be Singstar Abba and the spidy reference will be Spiderman: Web of Shadows, not Spiderman 3 Blu-ray (HD-DVD i mean)
and the 5PM should be Resistance 2, not lost planet.
Haggard @ Dec 18th 2008 2:04PM
But then why would the put 'in high-def' on the end of those two and none of the others?
KarlW @ Dec 18th 2008 2:07PM
"My my, how can I RESIST you"
Marty @ Dec 18th 2008 2:21PM
"But then why would the put 'in high-def' on the end of those two and none of the others?"
Because Ravishi is completely wrong and there will be Blu-Ray movies in the list.
ravishi @ Dec 18th 2008 3:14PM
@Marty
i already am wrong due to the last deal being a set of movies.
i'm still thinking 4pm will be Singstar Abba. lets see if i will be wrong twice today.
Skyelark @ Dec 18th 2008 3:15PM
NO, you are all wring, it'll be Singstar ABBA
Strategy_Panda (The Sandwich Poisoning Crew) @ Dec 18th 2008 3:40PM
wring wring wring wring wring wring wring,
Banana Phone!
cantbeatmegaman @ Dec 18th 2008 4:03PM
You guys called it.
roxmyballs @ Dec 18th 2008 1:06PM
Wow, 100% done in five minutes...
Deck @ Dec 18th 2008 1:09PM
9.98?! 83% off?
Holy...that's, that's amazing. No matter what the game is.
GhostofGrendel @ Dec 18th 2008 1:22PM
Is it true that the PS3 has no backwards compatibility anymore? I was looking on wikipedia and it says neither the 80GB or 160 GB models can play ps2 games. What about ps1 games? I can't really find any info on that. I want to get rid of my ps2, but not my ps2 games. Sounds like i might be out of luck. I want to get a ps3 after christmas, mainly as a blue ray player, but I would love to be able to play FFVII without having to hook up my ps2 anymore.
LaughingTarget @ Dec 18th 2008 1:26PM
All PS3s are PS1 compatible.
phinn @ Dec 18th 2008 1:30PM
PS3 doesn't come with PS2 backwards compatibility anymore. Every PS3 ever made has PS1 backwards compatibility. So you can play FF-VII for example perfectly (and you can turn on filtering and stuff to make it look a little better).
Roto13 @ Dec 18th 2008 2:56PM
Apparently half of my PS1 games won't work very well, though.
Sony fails at backwards compatibility this generation. And Microsoft, too, for that matter.
Haggard @ Dec 18th 2008 3:43PM
The corporate point of view: why should they care about the old games you've bought when they have wonderful new ones to sell you!
Night Elve @ Dec 18th 2008 3:48PM
You sir are so full of bullshit even my WarCraft II works like a charm on my PS3.
Night Elve @ Dec 18th 2008 3:48PM
My comment was for Roto13.
Roto13 @ Dec 18th 2008 8:08PM
Yeah, go look around the list of backwards compatible PS1 games and see how many of them have problems. I got to a certain point in Chrono Cross and the game started freezing. I had to quit.
Face it. Sony fails miserably at backwards compatibility.
Eh @ Dec 18th 2008 1:34PM
the others are are obvious but whats 5 and 9?
elitypes @ Dec 18th 2008 1:45PM
#9 "kage bunchin no jutsu" is in reference to a Naruto move so I'm assuming this is a deal on Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm.
Dr Jeckyl and Mr ESC. @ Dec 18th 2008 1:48PM
SOMEONE SAID kage bunchin no jutsU?!!!!
Mayenko Sharingan!!!
(Lost Planet or Center of the Earth)
Christopher @ Dec 18th 2008 1:48PM
5 - Resistance (2?)
9 - Naruto
Brucie B @ Dec 18th 2008 1:48PM
Got my brothers in arms for $10 shipped... Sweeet
*Ebay?
**Trade?
Alzheimers @ Dec 18th 2008 3:54PM
I don't even own a PS3 yet, so none of these deals really move me. There aren't even that many exclusive titles that I'd be so interested in playing -- Resistance, LBP ... God of War 3, someday.
What would move me? A PS3 priced at $299, or $349 with LBP. A free Blu-Ray remote? Meh.
Jimmijam @ Dec 18th 2008 5:08PM
So I snagged the Resistance 2 deal, sitting in my shopping cart, by when I go through the checkout, the "submit order" page shows the full price, not the Gold Box Deal...
WTF?
Danny F. @ Dec 18th 2008 5:11PM
Same here, decided to just get it as a gift and no lie 7 minutes after the deal is up all 100% discounts are claimed. Wtf?!? how many were they selling like 5?? Its not that great of a game to be getting without a discount.
mazoku @ Dec 18th 2008 5:14PM
It worked fine for me. It shows the price as $79.99 but then lower down there's a discount listed:
"Lightning Deal: -$30.01"
I think it sold out in two minutes. Jeez.
phobic99 @ Dec 18th 2008 5:27PM
Yeah it worked for me too. I clicked add to cart then I preceded to look on ebay and other sites to compare prices, then I looked at how much the used non-collector's edition was...
then I walked away for 5 minutes...
then I saw the game was sold out...
opened my cart and saw that the price was still $49.95.
???
Amazon profits (aka they got my money).
Duke @ Dec 18th 2008 5:30PM
I walked away for a minute and they were sold out. I am so bummed out - that was the deal I was hoping for today! Damn work!!!
Green Monkie @ Dec 18th 2008 6:37PM
Yeah, the same thing happened to me. I clicked on the deal as soon as it popped up but by the time I changed the shipping option and confirmed the purchase the deal was 100% claimed and back to the full price of $79.98. So I called Amazon and explained that I had added it to my cart through the Gold Box deal and they readjusted my price back to the $49.98 without any problems. If you went ahead and ordered it, I would suggest giving them a call and saving yourself thirty bucks. After that, you can call GEICO and potentially save 10% on your car insurance. Deals all around!
Melissa E. @ Dec 18th 2008 5:32PM
Same here, when I got to checkout full price showed.... Not paying full price for it.
ice~ @ Dec 18th 2008 5:13PM
WTF! In under 5 minutes all of the Resistance 2 Collector Editions were sold out...i didnt even have enough time to get a credit card. Bullshit
Josh @ Dec 18th 2008 5:14PM
Actually, the deal was 100% claimed less than 2 minutes into it being posted.
You have to haul through checkout or you won't get an item as in-demand as that was...
DarkNessBear @ Dec 18th 2008 5:49PM
How much was the $70 Resistance 2 deal?
Ugh! I missed Resistance 2 and Brothers in Arms! DAMNIT!
ice~ @ Dec 18th 2008 5:56PM
it was $80 for collectors edition. and you could buy it for $49.99 i believe
