Black Friday is almost here and you have a 50% chance* of being trampled to death if you brave the stores this Friday. If you are going to put your life in danger, you should at least have the best available information before you head out. This article contains the best of the best video game deals at each retailer. Our very favorite deals are displayed in bold.
For those who don't have time for massive open worlds or role-playing games with epic tales, these 15 games are worth checking out.
GB: "With this feature, we take a look back at the incredible Batman: Arkham City with the aim of analyzing it from the perspective of a 2024 release."
Reviews are finally out for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, and the game's Metacritic review score means Marvel still hasn't toppled DC.
The Arkham games are largely excellent, a shame they are being followed up by that god awful looking suicide squad game.
All 4 Arkham games are just amazing...
With the Gotham Knights turning out sub par, hope the Suicide Squad fails as well... So that both Rocksteady and WB Montreal goes back to creating good single player DC games ...
A batman beyond game maybe?
Having the game fail would make it harder for them to get funding for their next game, please don't wish this on them. They already delayed the game a whole year after backlash, so we still have to wait and see how it will turn out.
You can't expect a game to match 96-94 meta apple for apple. Different era and different gen. No need to diminish either game's achievement. Arkham City and Spiderman 2 are both amazing sequels that improved upon their already incredible first parts.
To back that up, there are major websites that adjusted their review scales.
IGN used to have a 100 point system; now it's a 10 point system. I remember GameSpot back in 2004 was razed for giving Halo 2 a 9.4 when IGN gave it like a 9.7 or 9.8
Arkham Asylum was great, but when City came out... wow what a total overhaul that was. Nothing has had that type of night/day difference in scope and scale since.
SM2 is looking to be a great game in itself. Definitely an upgrade over the previous entries. Just from the opening battle with sandman, it gives me god of war 2 vibes with how that one opened with the battle with colossus of rhodes. That is still one of my favorite sequels of all time.
And right on cue, here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece, not gonna work, this game is gonna be beast in success.
'' here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece''
You know that train is never late.
I participated in one Black Friday event by going everywhere with a girlfriend of mine starting at like 10 p.m. Thanksgiving Day and going all day until 9 p.m. Friday. I must of spent about $100 on Starbucks alone that day.
Needless to say that was the first and last time i will ever go to a store or shopping period on Black Friday. The amount of savagery I witnessed over discounted electronics was mind blowing. It's like when the U.N. dumps Rice and Powdered milk off of trucks in Ethiopia and starving people kill each other for food type of savagery.
I love to save a few bucks but I'm not gonna result to caveman tactics and flirt with death to get a discount on a discontinued model of a Toaster, Coffee Maker, or Blender.
"Doorbusters"!!! OMG do you know in some cities this phrase has been outlawed from advertisements because of the amount of people trampled to death trying to be first in line to get the limited item.
Just watch the news and you will see at least 2 deaths and a few shootings alone at Wal-mart. Black Friday is more like Bloody Friday.
Steam and Newegg.com are all you need.
I've done retail in many a Black Friday. One holiday season saw a shopper in the mall I worked at stabbed over an item. Unbelievable.
