Don't binge on too much tryptophan this Thanksgiving, because you'll need to wake up early to take advantage of Kmart's Black Friday deals. Most of the store's best deals are doorbusters, being offered only from 5am to 11am November 25. Highlights include Driver: San Francisco for $20, Battlefield 3 or Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for $35, and this year's EA Sports titles (i.e. Madden, FIFA and NCAA Football) for $40 each.
The other gaming deals, available all day November 25 and 26, aren't quite as good, though there are some good buys to be had. You can snag an Xbox 360 4GB console for $149 or a Kinect sensor for $99. As for games, for $40 you can pick up Gears of War 3 or Forza Motorsport 4, $30 will get you RAGE, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection, Kinect Sports Season Two or Dance Central 2.
Finally, if you ... erm, your "nephew" has been dying to try out Skylanders, you can grab the starter pack for $50.

The Metal Gear collection is VERY tempting seeing as how ive never played any of them.

I don't do Black Friday, but it was worth the $50 I paid for it last week, so it's gotta be worth $15 less than that.
Incidentally, if you've never played a MG game before, and you have a PS3 (or PS2/PS1) I'd recommend playing 3 first (and Peace Walker and the NES games, I guess) and then getting MGS1 on PSN (or used for PS1) before playing 2.
Or, you know, you could look at how complicated this has just become and maybe play some Arkham City or Skyrim instead.

Yeah, surprisingly Wal-Mart's $28 deals look to not be beat this year. I will be getting Battlefield 3 for several people for Christmas.

Has CAG already organized this stuff, or is it coming up? They make Black Friday so easy.

@Special Agent Steve Hopefully they add this to the Menu. I might go on a NYC cross Borough spree with that list.

I've played the MGS games but as a fanboy $35 looks pretty nice. I can't imagine it getting much cheaper over the next year.

That sounds extremely tempting lol but sadly I have Xbox 360 and I've played the NES versions. But I'm definetly getting this.

Shouldn't Modern Warfare 2 be 20$ not on sale at this point. The game is already 2 years old.

I'm sure there will be lots of RAGE over $30 on Black Friday at K-mart...

It's funny to see all these people talking about the NES MGS games. Silly special kids, they're not NES games, they were for the MSX, a japanese console made partly my microsoft way back in the day.

I work in Electronics part time at K-mart. The only glimmer of hope working on black friday was maybe snagging some sweet deals while on duty, but I guess nawwwwwwwwwwt.
Incidentally, up until maybe this week (the deal they have this week is buy 1 get one 50% for select titles, such as Assassin's Creed: Revelations, MWIII, Saints Row: the Third, Skyrim, and Rayman Origins) K-mart usually gives like a 15$ off, 20$ off, or even 30$ off coupon towards gaming purchases. Which, apparently, you can use together, because this guy came in and bought Skyrim for 5$ after using a total of 3 of these coupons. Just something to keep in mind.
I was kind of hoping there would be something as good as that in our black friday ad though.

5am? No thanks. Best Buy, on the other hand, is opening at midnight this year. Since I'm up then anyway, why the hell not!
