And even beyond the prices on the website, you can use the code NOV20OFF for an extra 20 percent off these already discounted titles. We've got deals on deals here, people!

You can look through the whole list of prices on GamerDeals, but the standouts are probably XCOM: Enemy Unknown for just $37.49, Dishonored for $29.99, Torchlight 2 for just $14.99, and Spec Ops: The Line and The Darkness 2 for $7.49 each.

Only on Black Friday, you can grab Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning also for $7.49, and Hotline Miami is that same price on Saturday. And on Friday and Monday only, Need for Speed: Most Wanted is $24.99. All those prices are before the code discount, too, so if you need to stock up on PC titles, GameFly seems like one of the best ways to do so.

EA clearly realizes that its digital-only game service needs to compete with the other digital retailers, as evidenced by its overtly aggressive pricing on today's Cyber Monday sales: Battlefield 3 for $30, as well as Need for Speed: The Run, not to mention package savings that rival Steam's.

Beyond the games available for PC, a variety of the publisher's iOS slash mobile titles are also getting deep cuts, all of which end around midnight tonight. If you were waiting patiently for a heavily discounted copy of Risk for your iPad, now is the time!

Luckily, we learned our lesson in time to cruise the internet for savings, rather than ill-advised virtua-trysts.

Amazon's probably your first, best stop, with Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 for $30, Metal Gear Solid 4 for $15 and more on the way. Amazon's also offering $20 in PSN credit with the purchase of qualifying PS3 games. Gamestop's putting out a good spread too, with $20 off LittleBigPlanet and $25 gift cards on plenty of games including Tony Hawk Ride and DJ Hero. The Guitar Hero Store has slashed prices on a ton of bundles. Quite a few retailers have discounts you can use for video games (or anything else you're buying) through Google Checkout as well.

Spot any good sales? Let us know in the comments.

[Update 1: GamersGate has posted its deals.]

Amazon.com's Cyber Monday deals are here to help, offering Uncharted 2 for only $40, among other great deals. How about Left 4 Dead 2 for $40? Or maybe you'd prefer a 60-hour-long fantasy RPG for the same price? Amazon has you covered.

Look, we'd keep listing deals here, but there's kind of a lot. So pick your console of choice (Nintendo Wii / DS, PlayStation 3, or Xbox 360) and check out all the savings for yourself. While it's not quite Steam levels of insane price drops, we're quite partial to games for a third or more off normal retail price. Aren't you?

Remember that Pink Ribbon DS Lite that Nintendo unveiled a few months back? Well, Amazon is offering that DS Lite model for the reduced price of $99.95, as part of its Cyber Monday sales event. It's like Black Friday, except you can shop without your pants on.

What else is up for grabs? Nothing really for the DS lovers out there, but if you are looking to upgrade to a DS Lite or introduce someone else to the wonders of Nintendo's handheld, there are plenty of other deals going on around the net. We suggest you hit up Joystiq's deal guide right here.

After touching on a few deals over the weekend, Joystiq posted a Cyber Monday "best of" list that takes a look at all major retailers and online shops' best deals you'll come across today. As far as Xbox 360 deals go, we spotted Alone in the Dark for $11 at Amazon.com, Gears of War for $19 at Best Buy and the Halo 3 Legendary Edition for $45 at Toys R Us. Make the jump, find a deal, whip out your credit card and charge it all to the plastic. The plastic is your friend ...

In case your wallet isn't hurting enough from this weekend (or you simply decided to take the frugal route with Black Friday shopping), Amazon has unveiled their Cyber Monday deals, which starts tomorrow at 3:00AM ET. While no way as exhaustive as its weekend specials (which, like the new deals, last until Tuesday, December 2 at 2:59AM ET), there are a few steep discounts worth noting. Fable 2 and LittleBigPlanet are $40 each, and Spore is being offered for only $20.

We've posted the full list after the break. Be sure to also keep an eye on GameStop, who has its own specials starting at midnight ET tonight.

And if you weren't already sick of holiday shopping and all the 360 deals here comes Cyber Monday. Starting today and running through tomorrow night, Cyber Monday will bring exclusive online deals from both your local retailer and online stores.

Best Buy's Cyber Monday deals include a free $10 gift card with purchase of WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008 and $10 off a combo Assassin's Creed / peripheral purchase. Circuit City's Cyber Monday is pretty simple where you can take 10% off any online order that is over $249 and is picked up in-store. Wal-mart is offering an Xbox 360 bundle exclusively today and includes a Xbox 360 with Forza 2 and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, an extra wireless controller, a travel bag and a copy of Halo 3 for $399. But other than that, we can't find too many great Cyber Monday deals from big box retailers. Watch online though, maybe other goodness will pop up. And if you do find other deals, give us a heads up.

Also, it's worth mentioning that the Halo 3 Spartan wireless controller is $49 this week at Circuit City. It comes with a mini Master Chief figure and the controller's paint job is ... rather unique.
