WITH DEALS LIKE THIS, AMAZON MUST BE INSAAAANE (AAAAAANE) (AAAAANE) (AAAANE)
WITH DEALS LIKE THIS, AMAZON MUST BE INSAAAANE (AAAAAANE) (AAAAANE) (AAAANE)
Big Amazon has been running some game-related promotions today in its gold box section. Every few hours, the deal changes, and they only give you hints about what's coming next. So far, the most interesting thing has been The Last Remnant for $29.98--though that's really only ten bucks cheaper than Amazon's regular price.

As of this writing, there's a copy of Ben 10: Alien Force for the Wii up there for $19.98 and three more games will be spread out over the course of the day. Hopefully something else of interest will show up, or else I'm staring at this silly-ass gold box page for nothing.

But anyway, yeah, consider this a heads-up. if you're the type of person who fiends for deals, check it out right over here.

That 12 month gold subscription card for Live looks really tantalizing at 38$.

The fact that I just picked up Ninja Gaiden II for $9.99 at Best Buy makes these deals look like a big pile of puke.  For anyone who didn't know about that, you still might be able to get Walmart or someone to price match if you bring the ad to them.

They give hints on what the games are. Looks like the next one is World of Goo?

yep, world of goo is being offered for $10 until 6 p.m., cst. if i had my rathers, i'd go with the wiiware version for $15, but it is a fantastic title on the pc or mac as well.

Eternal Sonata for PS3 is a deal I would say is equally awesome. I'm almost tempted to pick up World Of Goo, but I would also rather have the Wii version.

So they're purposely being slow at shipping so that people would pay extra for reasonable speed shipping? I mean if they can be fast, why not be fast all the time? To me that kinda stinks of the whole "Did you preorder?" thing at GameStop or "Are you an MVP?" at GameCrazy.

Wow, this has totally ended up being a lame set of games. Very disappointing, Amazon.

I picked up World of Goo for $10.  I don't use my Wii enough to warrant picking it up on there.

I used the Amazon Prime trial after thanksgiving.  Ordered all my stuff on Amazon (using the giantbomb link so they'd get a cut mind you) for Chirstmas and got it really quickly.  I also ordered a 7.1 home theater in a box system and had it overnigted for like 2 or 3 bucks...I cancelled however am tempted to resign up as it is really nice getting your stuff that quick.

Call of Duty WAW was on there one day for only $35. I would consider that a good deal.

I don't even have prime and I get most things in 3 days, it's quite hilarious actually, no reason for me to pay for faster shipping or sign up for prime when I get my shipments so damn quick. I buy a ton of stuff off Amazon, such an excellent way to buy electronics. Just make sure you're not confusing Amazon shipping slowly with one of the SELLERS on Amazon shipping slowly, very different since you're going through a small business or someone just looking to sell some of their stuff. When you buy direct from Amazon you can almost certainly guarantee a fast delivery. It's where I get all my Blu-Ray movies, paying 40 bucks for the DieHard quadrilogy when it's going for 130 is incredible.
