Black Friday Day One
(Update: Well, this is kind of awkward. Most of Amazon’s Black Friday video game deals were available on Thanksgiving. There wasn’t a whole lot that got added outside of the $99 black and white 3DSes that won’t reliably stay in stock for extended periods of time.
So, what we’re left with is basically yesterday’s sale. Actually, in some ways, it’s worse because a lot of those games sold out so there are fewer deals. But, the good news is that there is still a lot of decent stuff here, especially for those people who didn’t get a chance to check it out yesterday. We’ve updated links and added a few entries to reflect deals that are current at the time of writing.
Also, wow did I ever botch that Vikings/Cowboys thing.]
Original post: It’s like “Train Kept a Rollin'” by Aerosmith except the train is deals and it’s not bad like most things by Aerosmith are bad. That’s an awkward way to say that Amazon has even more video game discounts for Thanksgiving, and that’s generally a good thing.
This is where things start to heat up. A lot of today’s sales are from some of the biggest titles of 2016. The Dishonored 2 Limited Edition is $35. Doom is $20. Dark Souls III is $20. No Man’s Sky is $25. It goes on.
Here are some of the best Thanksgiving video game deals we could find on Amazon. Some of them are holdovers from other days that seem pertinent to list again. If you don’t see anything that suits you, well, Black Friday’s just a day away.
Happy Thanksgiving, and remember to responsibly mix family time with capitalistic pursuits. Also, spend your football time today praying for a Vikings win and a Cowboys loss. That, truly, would be the best deal.
