Black Friday Have Deceived Me

by Lord Spencer Fri Nov 25, 2011 1:11 pm

So, today is black Friday and I expected to have a number of great deals on games, since in my father's time in the U.S., EVERYTHING went into sale at black Friday.

However, the only deal that was available was the regular Gamestop buy two used get one free deal.
And I went there at 6 freaking A.M.

Nevertheless, I was going to buy a shitload of games regardless. I just changed my tactic towards used games.
To my surprise, I saw pre-owned versions of Skyrim, Arkham City, and Dark Souls. And they were the last pre-owned copies.

I got a couple of cheap games that were new (Metroid for $10), and more used games. Also bought the new Zelda.

Since the deal was buy 2 and get 1 free, I made sure I get the most out of it.
Also, bought Portal 2. Mario Galaxy 2, and Dues Ex.

I though about splurging and trading in my DS for a cool looking Zelda 3DS bundle, but I am sure Nintendo will release another version of the 3DS, possibly with an analog stick.

The funny thing is that as I was checking out, this guy came in and headed towards where I got my Pre-Owned games, and asked the cashier where Skyrim-Dark Souls-Arkham City were. And the cashier pointed at me, and I did the best troll face I could do.

And, since I spent so much, the guys at Gamestop gave me a Zelda bundle they were holding out to some guy who wanted it two days ago.

All in all, it took a $330 hit on my wallet.

I guess I will have to starve for the upcoming month. Oh well, I was going to starve playing Skyrim anyway.

$330? Holee shite. You could fund a rebellion with that here.

Gotta second used games :bow:

I always buy a few when visiting the 'States.

Its crap

Nothing good is on sale

Nicely done, Spence. $330 is quite the haul.

My annual gamer splurge will largely surround my finally getting a PS3 and whatever two games I decide to get for it.

I went into a "buy all the games" mode and did not realize I was shooting myself in the foot between that, and my ticket to Iraq/Saudi, and the extra luggage I will be carrying.

Regardless, it looks like another dip into the stock market to try and recover the amount of spending I did this month (I usually don't spend much all year and just go crazy one month).

It's a good thing you didn't buy them then, isn't it. Be a nice lad and kindly sod off now, thanks.

You come into a thread and post nothing but a criticism... what do you expect, a parade? If you haven't got something worthwhile or at the very least on-topic to say then keep it to yourself.
