[Zrikz]

Updated for Oct, 16... updated yesterday, but it looks like the title does not change when I change it.

[AgtFox]

Yeah, title doesn't change. I made it more broad and hopefully that will be that :D

[mister slim]

Not a Gold Box deal, but today's videogame deal of the day is the DS Lite (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_6716412_1?ie=UTF8&docId=1000208101&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=right-1&pf_rd_r=17WB6GA541B5KGA2RAYH&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=410200701&pf_rd_i=468642), in every color.

[Wraith]

There will be PS3 Gold Box deals / Lightning Deals on Wednesday. Link (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_7771242_1?ie=UTF8&docId=1000266851&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=1AW4F6GA6DW5JPXQ2NGD&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=456034901&pf_rd_i=468642).

[Kenzington4short]

Today's Gold Box Deal of the Day is Amazon's Exclusive Kill Bill Blu-ray Bundle (http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=cs_top_nav_gb27). $27.95 for both movies is pretty darn good, considering one of those movies usually goes for about that price.

Aww, man... so tempting. I want it, but I don't know if I should do it!

I'm still waiting on the single volume with both movies edited together.

I always thought there should've at least been a box set that had the two movies together, but they never did that.

[Wraith]

Looks like it's going to be Xbox 360 deals all day. The Gold Box/VG DotD is Midnight Club: LA (360) (http://www.amazon.com/Midnight-Club-Los-Angeles-Xbox-360/dp/B000WQ4KHQ/) for $39.99. The first Lightning Deal is Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (360) (http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Force-Unleashed-Xbox-360/dp/B000R0URCE/) for $29.98.

The upcoming lightning deal clues are:

4th time around is the best.
Watch out for predators.
Johny Cage vs. Ironman
High-def roleplaying.
A modern day incarnation of Grease.

[Kelegacy]

Spectral Force 3 for 360 is also on sale for $18 and some change. Don't know if the game is any good, but for SRPG fans it might be worth a look. Also, The Last Remnant is 39.99.

[Wraith]

Next Lightning Deal, Soul Calibur IV (360) (http://www.amazon.com/Soul-Calibur-IV-Xbox-360/dp/B000ZKDOVW/) for $29.98.

[Wraith]

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe Collector's Edition (360) (http://www.amazon.com/Mortal-Kombat-Universe-Collectors-Xbox-360/dp/B001E3VKHY/) - $44.98 (list $69.99).

[Psykoboy2]

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe Collector's Edition (360) (http://www.amazon.com/Mortal-Kombat-Universe-Collectors-Xbox-360/dp/B001E3VKHY/) - $44.98 (list $69.99).

Goddamn is that ever tempting. I really, REALLY want to resist. I can buy it from Gamefly for $43, but that's just the regular edition. I know the Collector's doesn't add very much, but it's still tempting.

[Wraith]

The 5:00 pacific deal was Tales of Vesperia (360) for $34.98. Current deal is High School Musical 3: blah blah blah.

I might have actually gotten ToV... Its price has been sitting pretty firmly at $55-$60 since release, so $35 was a pretty good deal. Kind of interested on the overall community opinion opinion on ToV, but we don't seem to have those threads here.

Midnight Club: LA gold box deal is still available.

[Kelegacy]

Damn, ToV is one of the titles I'm asking for for Xmas. Missed out on that one.

[Wraith]

VGDotD today is Lego Batman (PS3) (http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Batman-Playstation-3/dp/B000ZK9QC8/) for $29.98.

[Wraith]

Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0009I6S0O/) - $9.98.

[Elrik Murder]

Wow! Complete X-Files set for $123.99. Here (http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=cs_top_nav_gb27).

[Wraith]

VGDotD: God of War (http://www.amazon.com/God-War-Playstation-2/dp/B0002XL3BA/) and God of War 2 (http://www.amazon.com/God-War-2-Playstation/dp/B000G6SPHI/) (PS2), $7.98 each.

[Wraith]

VGDotD: Rogue Galaxy (PS2) (http://www.amazon.com/Rogue-Galaxy-Playstation-2/dp/B000G77X34/) - $14.98.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51JiTX2ryNL._SS400_.jpg

[Wraith]

Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturn (PS2) (http://www.amazon.com/Shin-Megami-Tensei-Nocturne-Playstation-2/dp/B00024W1U6/) - $29.98

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51JXMFYS6ML._SS400_.jpg

[MachEnergy]

So this is going on again. Anyone care to guess what the games are going to be? I'll be honest, those clues don't really help me much.

[MachEnergy]

OK, so the first one's clue was something like "...pets in a garden..." and it turned out to be Littlest Pet Shop: Garden. Please tell me it gets better from here.

[fitbabits]

Rumor has it the next one is LittleBigPlanet...

[fitbabits]

Also, the 2pm PST deal is Spore.

[MachEnergy]

damn fitty, you are putting me to shame

[Talanvor]

Rumor has it the next one is LittleBigPlanet...

You sure? I'm thinking Folklore.

[MachEnergy]

I think he might be correct about the whole "dreams" thing. That's the entire premise for LBP. My first thought was Eternal Sonata, but that isn't so much a dream as a dying brain fizzle.

[Arphahat]

I'm going to guess that the 4:00pm is Left 4 Dead.

And, 6:00pm... could that be Harvest Moon?

[Wraith]

11:00AM PST
This should hold you over on Xbox 360 until Final Fantasy XIII releases.Maybe The Last Remnant?Also, the 2pm PST deal is Spore.Not World of Goo?

[Cyndair]

Hmmm.. Eternal Sonata it is.. Worth 35 bucks? I liked the demo but I hear it gets repetitive toward the end.

[Kagger]

Does L4D have a decent single player game?

[Wraith]

Hmmm.. Eternal Sonata it is.. Worth 35 bucks? I liked the demo but I hear it gets repetitive toward the end.Well, you can read the Eternal Sonata, should I or shouldn't I? (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=4174) thread. I know a lot of people here are really down on Eternal Sonata, but I really liked it, despite its flaw(s).

The PS3 version does have a few new additions.Nearly everything related to the game's story and characters is getting an upgrade. In addition to two new playable characters (Prince Crescendo of the Baroque kingdom and his fiance Serenade, both of whom appeared in the 360 version but weren't controllable), there are a handful of new dungeons to explore and a variety of new quests, including one that brings you into the forest the agogo sprites call home and another that more fully explores the story behind Polka's illness. The game now has multiple endings that branch out depending on your decisions in-game, and you can also dress up your party in new costumes, which you'll find in treasure chests along the way. Even the audiovisuals are getting a little boost -- there are new 2D illustrations for all the main characters, and a selection of new music is set to be added from composer Motoi Sakuraba and Russian pianist Stanislav Bunin.(1up (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3168409))

[Alkanos]

As for the 11AM one, I think it could be Lost Odyssey, The Last Remnant, or Infinite Undiscovery. If it's LO I'll probably get it (still haven't played it). Otherwise, I'll probably pass unless the price is really good, as in 15 bucks good. As for the 2PM one, my first thought was World of Goo too, but Spore makes sense as well.

Now I just need to remember to check back when the next game comes up!

[MachEnergy]

oh wow, i can't believe it was eternal sonata after all

if lost odyssey comes up next, i may just have to be bad (credit.....i'm broke until thursday)

[rinichanraar]

Does L4D have a decent single player game?

To be honest, and this is completely my own personal opinion, I'm going to say no. The campaigns are quite short and considerably more fun when played with other people. You can play it by yourself, but it's not quite as exciting.

[astranoir]

To be honest, and this is completely my own personal opinion, I'm going to say no. The campaigns are quite short and considerably more fun when played with other people. You can play it by yourself, but it's not quite as exciting.

Personally, I would say I enjoyed it much more than I expected in single player because the AI isn't usually moronic, and is in fact pretty helpful.

[rinichanraar]

Personally, I would say I enjoyed it much more than I expected in single player because the AI isn't usually moronic, and is in fact pretty helpful.

I will definitely agree that the AI is awesome and usually much more skilled than real people (or at least my friends and me). I guess I just didn't find it as exciting when playing by myself. I'm already a bit baffled by the overwhelming amount of love for the game, but it's easier for me to understand the appeal when playing with a lot of people.

[Darken Skye]

Well according to the email I just got from Atlus the 6:00pm deal is Luminous Arc 2 (http://www.atlus.com/res/faithfulblast_amazon_luminousarc2_lightningdeal.jp g).

[Psykoboy2]

Last Remnant - $30

[MachEnergy]

Well according to the email I just got from Atlus the 6:00pm deal is Luminous Arc 2 (http://www.atlus.com/res/faithfulblast_amazon_luminousarc2_lightningdeal.jp g).

I need to research this game. The art looks nice! :)

[Wraith]

Last Remnant - $30Ordered.

$29.98, free shipping. Plus I had a couple $10 discount codes on my account. $9.98 for me. :D

Last Remnant is about 90% claimed right now...

[Cyndair]

Well, you can read the Eternal Sonata, should I or shouldn't I? (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=4174) thread. I know a lot of people here are really down on Eternal Sonata, but I really liked it, despite its flaw(s).

Gah, completely missed that thread. Thanks for the info! I held off on it for now since I picked up Persona 3 a couple weeks ago and I haven't even cracked the surface on it yet. That's 100 hours of RPG to keep me satisfied for the time being.

[Wraith]

The 10:00 AM PST Lightning Deal says "Snake doesn't bother with walkie talkies."

Which to me sounds like the Playstation 3 Metal Gear Solid Headset (http://www.amazon.com/Playstation-3-Metal-Gear-Solid-Headset/dp/B001CEFOJK/), which currently sits at $59.99...

Also, the VGDotD is an 80GB PS3 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_6716412_1?ie=UTF8&docId=1000208101&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER) for $349.98 ($50 off).

[Telefrog]

It's not a Gold Box deal, but Mass Effect PC is available for $16.99 (http://www.amazon.com/Mass-Effect-Pc/dp/B00140P9BA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1233074269&sr=1-2).

(congrats on your 1,000 posts :))

[Wraith]

(congrats on your 1,000 posts :))Thanks! Hadn't noticed I was that close to the 1k mark.

[Psykoboy2]

I was thinking about it, but I had remembered hearing negative things about it back when it was release and those reviews on Amazon don't help any.

Think I'll pass.

[Wraith]

VGDotD: Galactic Civilizations II: Game of the Year Edition (http://www.amazon.com/Galactic-Civilizations-II-Game-Year-PC/dp/B00162L5OG/) (PC) - $9.98

[Kielaran]

This sale got me to pull the trigger on Persona 4.


The current Lightning Deal is Lego Batman (PS2) for $14.98.

Other Lightning Deal clues are:

It's about time we stopped ignoring the Pacific theater.
- Obviously a WWII title.
I like to move it, move it.
- Some rhythm/dancing game?
Scarier than the Italian mafia.
- Yakuza 2

[Wraith]

Next Lightning Deal is Call of Duty World at War: Final Fronts (PS2) - $19.98.

[Restlessavenger]

Today: Persona 4 25$ (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_6716412_1?ie=UTF8&docId=1000208101&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=right-1&pf_rd_r=1C9QF6EA0XAYFS546Y15&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=457286001&pf_rd_i=468642)

I picked this one up and finally pulled the trigger (HA) on a set of Realtriggers as well.

[Kielaran]

I like to move it, move it.
- Some rhythm/dancing game?

Madagascar game?

[Wraith]

Madagascar game?That's also what Lightningdeals.com guessed. Madagascar 2.

[mister slim]

You guys had damn well better buy Yakuza 2. It was a steal at $20 so it's mandatory at whatever price it drops to.

[Restlessavenger]

You guys had damn well better buy Yakuza 2. It was a steal at $20 so it's mandatory at whatever price it drops to.

It looks like they already have Yakuza 2 at 20 bucks and the deal doesn't start for 10 more minutes. Maybe it is a combo with part 1.

By the way. For those ordering Persona 4 it looks like they aren't planning on shipping that out until March 2nd.

[Wraith]

So what was the Yakuza 2 deal? It's 100% claimed now.

Looking at CAG, it was $15.

[Telefrog]

Saints Row 2 CE - $35. 360 (http://www.amazon.com/Saints-Row-2-Collectors-Xbox-360/dp/B0016Q6V8C/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1235490886&sr=1-4) and PS3 (http://www.amazon.com/Saints-Row-2-Collectors-Playstation-3/dp/B0016Q2172/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1235490886&sr=1-5) versions.

Amazon VGDotD is Luminous Arc 2 (http://www.amazon.com/Luminous-Arc-2-Nintendo-DS/dp/B001COZFPI/) (DS) - $25.98.

The game comes with a soundtrack CD included. They also still have the note up about getting the bonus Artbook while supplies last (don't know if that's a guarantee that you'll get the artbook or not).

[Wraith]

Tomorrow: Wii Gold Box deals.

[Wraith]

It looks like Gold Box / Lightning Deals is featuring PC hardware today.

Gold Box is 1TB Seagate HDD for $80. Lightning deals have so far featured a sound card and power supply. The other stuff coming up:


An easy and quick upgrade to boost your laptop's performance.
When it comes to laptop hard drives, size matters.
This makes adding TV to your PC so easy, even a cave man could do it.
Give your PC's graphics some muscle without straining your wallet
Outfit your computer with the ultimate performance case...
There's no such thing as your PC having enough memory, but this is a good start.

[crazyD]

"Upgrade your laptop to 4 GB of DDR2 memory for under $20"

Since when is $34.99 < $20?

[Wraith]

Ah, there's a $15 mail-in rebate, you just don't see it until you click to the product page. So $34.99 - $15 = $19.99

[crazyD]

Ah. Mail in rebate. Great.

Today's VGDotD: Mirror's Edge (360 (http://www.amazon.com/Mirrors-Edge-Xbox-360/dp/B00149PCAO/) or PC (http://www.amazon.com/Mirrors-Edge-Pc/dp/B00198ZHC8/)) for $19.98.

The 360 one is still ~$30 from what I'm seeing.

Edit: Not that it matters. Fucking Canada.

[Kelegacy]

I saw the $20 Mirror's Edge today. That's a fantastic deal. I had a lot of fun with the game. Had I not rented it and beaten it, I'd be game.

[Kielaran]

Damn...I guess it is sold out since I can't buy it through Amazon itself. Of course today would be the day I was too busy to check the deal first thing. 20$ was just what I was looking for in ME too. :(

[rinichanraar]

Wow, looks like I was really late to the Mirror's Edge party. I probably would've gone for it at $20, but not more.

[Xerxes]

I got in on it. Sucks I missed on the Luminous Arc 2 deal.

[mister slim]

Yeah, that Luminous Arc pack was really nice. The artbook was better quality than I expected.

[Wraith]

VGDotD is Moon (http://www.amazon.com/Moon-Nintendo-DS/dp/B001DAVSZC/) (DS) for $19.98.

[agentgray]

Anyone else think that the last deal today (4/27) is Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core?

Clue: Cloud's predecessor.

[mister slim]

That was my assumption. Though the game is only $20 as it is.

[agentgray]

It is. About $13.

[Xerxes]

For that price, it's pretty damn good.

[Wraith]

VGDotD is Eternal Poison (http://www.amazon.com/Eternal-Poison-Playstation-2/dp/B001DT8FUE/) for $19.98

[Xerxes]

Wasn't that game sup-par?

[Wraith]

I've never played it. It's sitting at 65 on Metacritic (only 11 reviews; that 3.5 from IGN really brings down the average). But hey, if someone was thinking about it, it's $20 cheaper than retail.

[Wraith]

VGDotD is Saint's Row 2 Collector's Edition (PS3) (http://www.amazon.com/Saints-Row-2-Collectors-Playstation-3/dp/B0016Q2172/) for $29.98.

It's an excellent game that adds many new features not even in the console releases. It is among my favorite GTA games released. I would highly recommend it, if you are at all into the genre.

Thanks for the input! I went and read some other reviews and ended up getting it. It's just as cheap as if I would have bought it on half.com, and I've heard how amazing it is from a bunch of people around here. I'm not really sure why it's taken me so long to try it out.

Definitely buying it for that price. Thanks for the heads up!

[crazyD]

Sweet. I was about to start playing my roommate's version, when I found this fucking game has only 1 save slot. Guess I'll just get my own copy.

[Wraith]

Done deal. 20% claimed at the moment.

[Xerxes]

Love the ECA. Got it for 8 bucks. ^_^

[Wraith]

Huh, still available, 81% claimed. Expires in 1hr 45min.

[Bad Buddha]

Meh. All I found was:

The Bon-Aire Ultimate Hose Nozzle with Soft Grip Handle features a heavy-duty handle on a fire hose nozzle that can withstand abuse.

Man! Don't abuse your hose nozzle! However; I do like the idea of the Soft-Grip Handle!

Not a gold box/lightning deal, but it looks like a game purchase (from Amazon, not a third party) gets you a $5 Amazon MP3 credit.Promotional offer is valid from August 5, 2009 through August 31, 2009 and subject to change. You must redeem the credit by September 30, 2009.Offer has to be listed on the product page. Limit one credit.

This isn't a Gold Box/Lightning/Video Game Deal, but I feel compelled to mention it.

Newsradio: The Complete Series (http://www.amazon.com/Newsradio-Complete-Packaging-Dave-Foley/dp/B001DSNEM4/) - $32.49

Packaging isn't so great (all on one spindle), but it's all fives seasons for $32. Pretty sure I paid at least that much for each volume individually (seasons 1 & 2 are in one volume, as season 1 is pretty short).

[crazyD]

Today's VGDOTD is pretty awesome. Rock Band 2 special edition for $90. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=xs_gb_bd_CsB!t8IAall-?ie=UTF8&docId=1000208101&pf_rd_p=441937801&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_t=701&pf_rd_i=20&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=08PQ53KJ8ZQ7QBSWXP68)

Yep...it's Halo Wars Limited Edition for $35

[Telefrog]

Not a Goldbox, but here's a good deal on XBLA games:

Marvel v Capcom $10 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B002L3RUIY/ref=nosim/cheapassgam08-20)

Both are normally 1200 points or $15.

Phantom Hourglass? Pokemon Diamond/Pearl? New Super Mario Bros? Mario Kart DS? $35. And Nintendogs titles from 3-4 years ago, still at $30.

Yeah. Nintendo has yet to announce a Player's Choice, Greatest Hits or Platinum Hits this generation. They've been selling their first party releases at launch prices. That's one reason third parties have had any success on the Wii - they've been able to undercut the biggest software-mover without much trouble. I personally think Nintendo is doing them a favor.

[Xerxes]

I think I'll hate myself later for not getting it. With my ECA coupon that's like 54% off.

[crazyD]

Yeah, but all you get extra is some really shitty accessories. I mean, I love Ghostbusters something fierce, but those look like shit.

Video game deals in lightning deals/gold box today. Already missed a couple.

First was Ghostbusters Slimer Edition (Wii) for $40.
Second, Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (DS) for $20.
1:00 PM PDT: Something Silent Hill. ("Pyramid Head welcomes you home.")
4:00 PM PDT: Left 4 Dead? Resident Evil something? ("Zombies eat brains.")
7:00 PM PDT: Fallout 3? Ghostbusters. ("Why worry? Each one of us is carrying an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.")

Gold Box/VGDotD is Wolfenstein ($39.98 360/PS3, $29.98 PC).

[Mike Kelehan]

7:00 PM PDT: Fallout 3? ("Why worry? Each one of us is carrying an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.")

That's a direct quote from Ghostbusters, so I'm thinking the 360/PS3 Ghostbusters. If it's $20, or a good price on the CE again, I'll get it. If it's Fallout, though... I can't see myself getting the original with the GOTY so close.

[Wraith]

That's a direct quote from Ghostbusters, so I'm thinking the 360/PS3 Ghostbusters.I should've known that one.

Good price on those. I'm guessing some competition will be coming from Gogamer on this soon though, $35-40 range.

That always happens though. I tend to wait 1-2 weeks and get stuff $20-25 less on the Amazon marketplace. I've done it consistently with every title in the last year or so. They won't drop so much, so quickly, from retailers though.

That's the first time I've ever notcied it happen though (at least for a game I just bought). Of course I did get a 10 dollar credit for pre-ordering so in a sense I kind of got it for 45 dollars. But the fact you mention is why I haven't been picking up every single new game that comes out (only half of them :p ). I plan on waiting for sales for Bayonetta, Bioshock 2 or Star Ocean 4 International.

[Psykoboy2]

Good deal, I guess. I can keep it on GameFly right now for about $40...probably less with some discounts.

I never thought I would actually consider the purchase, but from what I have played...I've been thinking a lot about it.

Not a daily deal, but Amazon has Bayonetta (http://www.amazon.com/Bayonetta-Xbox-360/dp/B001YI0Z2U/) (360, PS3) for $39.99. (Same price Gamestop has it at for their Game Days sale.) Also Dissidia (http://www.amazon.com/Dissidia-Final-Fantasy-Sony-PSP/dp/B001TD6SN0/), Disgaea 3 (http://www.amazon.com/Disgaea-3-Absence-Justice-Playstation/dp/B001C4C4KW/) for $19.99 ea.

Maybe they're price matching all of the Game Days deals.


Oh, and Valkyria Chronicles (http://www.amazon.com/Valkyria-Chronicles-Playstation-3/dp/B0016C3260/) also for $19.99, which I mentioned in the VC thread.

[Evil Avnovice]

Batman: Arkham Asylum is the "Deal of the Day" for $26.99. Of note, Amazon is saying that the PS3 version is currently out of stock, but the Xbox 360 version is in stock.

Ok price for those that missed the $12 deal a bit ago.

[Datul]

What would have been a deal if you got it before it sold out: 16gb Flash drive on deal of the day for $25. Snagged one for the new xbox compatibility.

Next time I'll post before they sell out.

EDIT - Price dropped to $33.24 while posting. Will the extra buck and a half get me to buy? Stay tuned!

[frederec]

I grabbed it while $34.99. Still need to play the first, but didn't want to pass it up.

[Daytime_Lantern]

33.24 comes from hubba games. Not sure if you get free shipping there
