Since today's Amazon deal is the equivalent of a failure pile in a sadness bowl (you'll have to find what it is yourself, because I'm not unleashing the horror) I'm going to take today to give you guys and gals a heads up for Wednesday (5/21) because that's what friends are for. Through good times and bad times....
We've seen Amazon do this a few times in the recent past where they devote an entire day's Gold Box deals to vidja gaming. They do this because we're all whores. You cannot deny this as science has proven it via DLC and GTAIV's undeserving sales numbers -- yeah, I went there. The deals are all going to be of the music/rhythm persuasion, so expect to see some High School Musical and Hannah Montana get in the way of your Rock Band and Guitar Hero. So don't panic and remember that I told you the deals will have some suck involved, come 12:01 AM PST on Wednesday. Yes, I completely realize I put "suck" and "come" together in the last sentence and no, I didn't mean to. Let's just forget about it and wrap this up. The other deals will be at 6 AM PST, 2 PM PST and 6 PM PST, so be sure to keep your eyes glued to the monitor...if you can stop looking for Hannah Montana nude 'shoops long enough.

You hate fun, confirmed.
To compare Guitar Hero to Rock Band is to do Rock Band a disservice. I don't particularly like Guitar Hero.
@NotAZombie:
I tend to think of purchases in terms of entertainment value. In terms of dollars per game hour, Rock Band has been a much better value to me than most console games. I'd say a typical person pays between $5-$10 per game hour, on average. For every GTA IV, there's a short game or a mediocre game that doesn't get finished.
You hate fun, confirmed.
I like your dollar/hour argument. I think about that with just about every game I purchase.
On that note, Rock Band has probably been the best gaming value I've had since Final Fantasy Tactics. And that's even after I imported it and all the DLC.
$25= two tickes
Two tickets= 45 minutes of commercials, possible 90 minute film, which= me rarely going to movies.
Same with DVD's, except price is around $15-20.
I think if most people weighed out their actual entertainment in dollar value, they wouldn't buy half the shit they do. At least with games, depending on the title, I can get anywhere from $1/hour to $3/hour entertainment out of them. That's a hard value to beat in the entertainment world.
