Kmart's Got Some Major Black Friday Deals for Gamers

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

Heh... The numbers you gave as examples... Exchange the dollar signs for pound signs, and that's the current UK pricing for all those game.

But do the excahnge. What is a pund worth these days? How many USD? Isnt it like 1.6? So 1.6*40=$64. So games are more expenseive in the UK.

Wait, "Fallout: New Vegas $34.99" I definitely need to get that. Its a brand new game $25 off.

 

[DJDarque]

The only one I might get is New Vegas just to see what all the fuss is about.

Well, that's what the numbers say. The standardised prices of new games in the UK is £39.99, and in the US, $60, as I understand it. It doesn't add up. So yeah, we're paying more...

Shite...

Fable 3 for 40$... It costs about 100-110$ here in Sweden right now.

(I hate my country... )

 

[BlueHighwind]

Not one game I actually want! Fooey!

 

[krychek57]

You call those deals? Wait until Steam's Christmas sale. Those are deals.

This.

It's really hard to justify Paying $39.99 for the Sims3 with steam in the pipeline.

 

[Broken Orange]

I have see better (leaked) deals at Best Buy and Target. Plus, I have no intrest in any of these games and/or already own them. If I knew where a Kmart is, I might have been intrested.

 

[praetor_alpha]

No PC games? Awwww.

I don't think that Kmart has sold any PC games (or even PC software) for about 10 years now. Shame, that.

Remember that UK prices already include tax, whereas US prices are the before-tax price, so the UK isn't as bad off as it seems.

Wait, wait:

? DSI Orange w/ Mario Party: $149.99
? DSI Green w/ Mario Party $149.99

When did this happen? Those colors are news to me. I mean, I'm not really all that interested in a green or orange DSi, but still...

 

[duchaked]

assuming my local K-Mart even has anything in on its shelves anymore these days...

I got Mass Effect 2 used at Blockbuster for $10...

but will most likely be looking in other places for deals on Black Friday

 

[Gonzagon]

I work at a K-Mart and am opening on Black Friday. I don't care if I get fired I'm grabbing a few games and being first in line.

 

[superbatranger]

Wait, K-mart is still around? I haven't seen one in years.

 

[Azaraxzealot]

aww... i wanted to see if Crackdown 2 was on sale...

 

[Ben Gepfrey]

Thats not all the deals, they are throwing in coupons for future purchases for many of those items as well.

Such as $10 coupon with Fable 3, Halo Reach, and Medal of Honor.

You can see complete list here.
