I really don't need to be buying 3 games on the same day any more. This is a nice deal, but $120 is a lot to drop on 3 games that will likely all be $40 by the time you finish all 3 of them anyway.

@Hoops
Your are right but only if it takes you 9 months to finish a game.

@pickupdoctor
It would actually be 9 months to finish 3 games, which, depending on the games chosen and average daily playing time, might not be so far fetched.

@Hoops That's why I'm going to use this to pick up the new Kirby game and Just Dance 3. I mean, I'm still buying Uncharted 3, and that'll price drop in a couple months but those other games won't be price dropping anytime soon, lol.

@Hoops I have to agree. If it isn't a game that I'm going to dig into right away, I'm not buying it unless the deal is too good to pass up. I have several games that I bought on release day that I still have yet to play. I WANT to play them, I'm excited about playing them, I just haven't finished the other games I own! :)

Here is your quote:

Okay so lets do the math here. Lets say you but one now $60.00 and the two other when their prices drop to forty so $40 + $40 . So with this math you would be paying more than this deal and not have opportunity to play the other two games until much later. Color me confused.

@pickupdoctor Best example are the Assassin Creed games.
ACII came out in November (I think), picked it up in December for $40
Brotherhood, I picked up in January for $30

I will guarantee Uncharted will be available for $40 or less within 9 months. My guess would be it will happen in 2011.

Well I would take advantage but I'm trying to save and since I'm already buying Skyrim on the 11th I probably won't use this deal seems good though for first day Uncharted buyers

Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me.

Maybe I am missing it somewhere but whatever happened to linking to the source??

@mirage Joystiq doens't do that on sales apparently. That would be too easy.

But you'll have something to occupy your attention while they're yelling at you for it. That's a win win in my book.

Are PC games eligible for this? Seems like they always get left out of these 2 for 1 sales for some reason.

But they always have deals that mimic competition to keep their customers.

I wish buy 2 get 1 free was for the entire month of November. Does this include pre-orders, like Skyrim?

Black Friday is just 4 weeks away. For those who don't watch the calendar too often. You'll probably get better deals if you hold off.

Toys R Us did this exact deal 2 weeks ago.

Already bought 3 for the Toys R' Us deal, can't afford that again.

Might have to finally get Gears 3 and The Gunslinger. But what could my free game be?!
Posted: Oct 28th 2011 4:27PM CommanderShawn said
DAMN CANT THIS WAIT TILL SKYRIM, ASSASSINS CREED REVELATIONS, AND MW3
Posted: Oct 28th 2011 6:11PM citizenlowell said
@CommanderShawn Just buy three games and exchange them later. As long as you don't open them and keep your receipt you'll be ok. It worked when Toys R Us did this two weeks ago and I exchanged for BF3.
