Tekken 6 has had yet another price cut at Amazon.com. The standard edition is $34.98 for the Xbox 360 and PS3. The Limited Edition is $70.98 for the Xbox 360 and $78.02 for the PS3. I was planning on trading in AC2 for Tekken 6 when I'm done with it but if the price of T6 slips any more I'm just going to go ahead and buy it.

Also, Way of the Samurai 3 for the Xbox 360 is $25.70. I've no clue if the game is any good, but it is half price...

MW2 is back to it's normal price ($53.**), AC2 and Dragon Age: Origins are still on sale.

-----12/29-----
All of the below deals are still going on except for Batman: AA which is back up to full price.

Also, I got an email from Amazon saying that all Xbox 360 accessories are 10% off today, I think it may be true for all Wii and PS3 accessories as well though.

Looks like Amazon is having an after Christmas sale, lots of good games at good prices!

Modern Warfare 2 is $39.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Assassin's Creed 2 is $39.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Left 4 Dead 2 is also $39.99 for the Xbox 360.

Dragon Age: Origins is $39.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Tekken 6 is $39.98 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Batman: Arkham Asylum is $39.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

-----12/23-----
Zelda: Spirit Tracks for the Nintendo DS is on sale fo r $25.00.

The Hardened Edition of Modern Warfare 2 is $59.00.

Metal Gear Solid 4 is $19.99.

That's all I see for today.

-----12/22-----
A few smaller sales. Dragon Age: Origins is back to $44.99 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 and $39.99 for the PC.

The Tekken 6 Limited Edition Bundle for the Xbox 360 has had it's price cut yet again to $74.14, they've got to be fighting to get rid of these things, that's less than half it's original price from less than two months ago. It's $5 more for the PS3 version.

The Standard Edition of Tekken 6 is still $39.98. For anyone who is holding back from the horrible multiplayer reviews, Namco has put out a patch to fix all the latency issues and everyone I know who has the game says it's night and day difference. I'll probably pick it up when I'm done with AC2.

L4D2 is back up to $49.99.

-----12/21-----
Still don't see any new sales. Tekken and Brutal Legend are still $40 each, the deal of the day isn't posted yet. Guess Amazon figures the holiday shopping season is over...


-----12/19-----
I don't see the "18 days of game deals" sign up top but I spy some pretty good deals. I've gotta leave in a second so I'll post what I can.

Tekken 6 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 is on sale for $39.98

Left 4 Dead 2 is $39.99 for the Xbox 360.

-----12/18-----
Avatar is $44.99 for the PS3 and Xbox 360, $37.49 for the Wii.

Also, despite it's lackluster sales Amazon decided to raise the price of Tekken 6 from $49.99 to $57.99 and $59.00 for the Xbox 360 and PS3 respectively. The price of the "Limited Editon" remains the same ($78) so my only thought is they're probably trying to get rid of their LE's.



-----12/17-----
Most of the 2010 EA Sports titles are $44.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3 and $34.99 for the Wii.


-----12/16-----
Only one deal I see today.
Left 4 Dead 2 is $29.99 for the PC, $39.99 for the Xbox 360.

-----12/15-----
A few sales going on at Amazon.

Assassin's Creed 2 is $39.78 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 version. I so don't need to buy this, I bought Batman yesterday but at this price you could buy it, play it, and sell it on ebay for a profit (it's going for $50+).

Dragon Age: Origins $44.99 for the PS3 and 360 and $34.99 for the PC.

Brutal Legend and Rock Band 2 are still on their sale price, it looks like the rest have returned to their normal price.


-----12/14-----
Lots of sales going on Amazon today including their Lightning Deals where they post a new item every few hours. Unfortunately (for me) they're mostly musical games. I'll just post a few of 'em

8:30 AM Central:
Guitar Hero 5 Bundle - (All 3 consoles) $59.99
Guitar Hero World Tour (Game Only) - (All 3 consoles) $29.99
Modern Warfare 2 Hardened Edition - Xbox 360 $47.99!!! (that's $3 more than the standard edition and includes the code for CoD classic!)

12:30 PM Central
DJ Hero Bundle (all 3 consoles)
Guitar Hero 5 (Game Only) - All 3 consoles
Lightning Deals

For their non-lightning deals here's what I see (there may be more, those are just from a quick browsing and all 3 are for the PS3 and Xbox 360):

Batman: Arkham Asylum - $34.98 (BUYING IT!)
Rock Band 2 Special Edition - $88.00
Brutal Legend - $39.99

+1, with the $10 credit I had from Forza 3 and the $20 credit I had from MW2 it cost me $4.98 shipped for it. I've been wanting to play it for a while, stoked for it!

The first round it up, anyone looking to pick up Modern Warfare 2 that price is a steal, it includes a code to download CoD classic ($15 over PSN/XBLA) and it's only $3 more than the standard version.

It's selling for $40+ on ebay still, might as well jump if it's what you want.

My wife is going to have my balls but I couldn't pass on the MW2 hardened edition. That's a fantastic value.

Looks like all of the Raving Rabbids games for the Wii are on sale today as well. If you haven't played them they are great fun.

Great to hear it Queasy!! I'm sure I'll see you online eventually. Heck, maybe by the time you're ready for MP they'll have the 1887's and other bugs fixed.

OMG why did you tell me about AC2 on sale!!!! Must...resist....urge.....

Crap, crap, crap, bought Brutal Legend last night, now want ACII, but would like to get it for both 360 and PS3. Wife is going to MURDER me.

+1, I'm scared of spousal abuse from my wife as well but I've got the numbers figured out. I just placed my order, here's how I rationalize it to the wife:

-I bought Forza Motorsport 3 on release day for $54.99 w/$10 gift card (VG's only). Traded in CoD : W@W for $25+ so it cost me around $35 w/release day delivery.

Grand total spent: $35, VG credit left: $10.

-I bought Modern Warfare 2 on release day for $59.99 w/$20 gift card (VG's only) and used a $40 gift card + 10&#37; off coupon, cost me $19 w/release day delivery. I actually ordered it before my FM3 order shipped so I didn't have teh $10 credit in my account yet. Oh wells.

Grand total spent: $54, VG credit left: $30.

-I discovered a glitch in FM3 and told the dev's about it, to say thanks they sent me the FM3 LCE and I sold it on ebay for $58 (after using the code from it I wanted).

Grand total spent: $-4, VG credit left: $30.

-I bought Batman: Arkham Asylum yesterday with the $30 Amazon credit (which I had to use before the year ends) and free shipping. $4.98 to my door.

Grand total spent: $0.98, no more VG credit.

-And I just bought AC2 for $40...

So in the end I've bought 4 new games and it's cost me a whopping $41 out of pocket. I'll play Batman and Assassin's Creed and probably ebay or trade them off. SURELY the wife can't complain (but she'll find a way I'm sure :D)!!

Don't forget about Steam's annual Christmas discounts. Should start either a day before Christmas or a day after Christmas. Every game sold on steam will be 10-75&#37; off.

I remember Bioshock and Portal were $5 last year.

I would not be surprised to see Batman AA for around $20 .

Everything you buy from Steam has DRM.

I got L4D2 a week or two ago because I didn't think it would end up being $30 again...hah. Doesn't matter, at least I didn't pay $50 (not that I wouldn't...and not that I payed for it with my money, but...).

Anyone that bought MW2: Hardened Edition have their shipped yet? I just checked my Amazon account and the estimated ship date on my copy isn't until Dec 21st. :(

This has me worried because later that evening I lost my debit card and had to cancel it. I'm hoping they ran the order through before I canceled the car but it doesn't look like it. I hope I get the new card quick.

That's certainly possible, but Steam already had Batman AA on sale for $25 during it's 5-day sale during the Black Friday weekend.

The same day you bought MW2 I bought Batman and yesterday I bought Assassin's Creed. Neither have shipped yet although I "think" I was already charged (the order is set to "preparing to ship").

Amazon doesn't charge until your order ships but you should be able to update your billing info for that order in the meantime.
