Brink $5 (5.50 after tax + free ship)

Worth $5 at least, can always trade it in for $3-4 on amazon. Also great as stocking stuffer material.

Not exactly a huge thing, but a good deal IMO. These are already out in Best Buy at the same price.

Dual shocks are $54.99 regularly. Mine crapped out the other night after 4 years. (ananlog was fucked, charge wouldn't last as long) So 5 bucks more for 2 game is an awesome deal.

Personally I picked up the GoW PS3 (PSP games) collection. Played both UC's and Resistance doesn't interest me at all. Would prefer black controller, but oh well.

Ive seen them for lower, although its infrequent. I got a blue dualshock and a ratchet and clank game for 40$ altogether on a lightning deal thing. But overrall even at full price its a good deal especially if its combo'ed with a game you want.

[Wardeniii]

Always kinda killed me that for pretty much every console created in the past decade that it costs between 50-100% of the actual console's price to simply complete a full set of controllers. Esp. with Wii; $200 for that sh*t when it first came out, and $60 for a single nunchuk/controller. Profits say hi.

Blah, PSN code, for Gotham City, said it was already claimed upon entering & I can't get a new one.

Blah, PSN code, for Gotham City, said it was already claimed upon entering & I can't get a new one.

I got this exact same problem too but thought it was just me. I was also able to print out an xbox code, so I hope at least that works.

[6souls]

breezed through this little tidbit;

The closed beta begins at 4pm on Thursday 15th December and runs until 20th December.

So hurry to the PSN and Xbox Live giveaway pages to claim a key - you'll be able to redeem your codes as soon as the beta begins!

So on PSN they won't work at all, but on XBL you can d/l the game early.

[Caiyuo]

I hadn't been able to, read the same thing and quit trying until the 15th because the XBL redeem code wasn't doing anything

I scored Infamous 2 CE for $26, and Time Crisis for $9

Batman AC: CE was $36.... if I wanted it on xbox360 that would have been a damn good deal.

Didn't see it mentioned but Humble Bundle #4 is available, which has:

Shank, Nightsky HD, Super Meat Boy, Bit. Trip Runner, Jamestown, Cave Story+, and Gratuitous Space Battles

I actually wanted some of these games and didnt have them, i was surprised since the last bundle was so disappointing for me.
