...NOBODY can touch Amazon. I work at GameStop, yet I pre-order all my games from Amazon, plus save money buying my XBL Gold sub and MS points from there as well. Even the trade system is better. Luvs me some Amazon. :D

nnotdead4983d ago

doesn't Amazon and Newegg tend to be the same in prices. i use Newegg for a lot of PC parts, and when i look at their game section it too looks pretty cheap. never had a problem with shipping either. i guess im asking why is Amazon is so much better. real question. im sick of buying games from Walmart or Gamestop, and if Amazon is that much better i will look into using them.

SpideyNut4983d ago

...Newegg can't compete with Amazon (on games). Amazon REGULARLY has $20 coupons with high-profile game pre-orders, has free release-day delivery (with Prime anyway...not sure without it), and regular discounts on MS points and XBL Gold.

well newegg only offers 10 dollars off castlevania while amazon gives 20 dollars credit to use for your next purchase.But newegg is offering GT5 for 48 buks while amazon offers 10 dollars credit for that one. So the way i see it Amazon is better becuz u will pay 60 dollars for castlevania but then the 20 dollar credit u recieve can go to a another good game u want say GT5. So ur gettin GT5 for 40 buks and castlevania for 60 but u also get another 10 for preordering GT5. So in the end Amazon is better becuz they give u 10 dollars more than Newegg would give so ur gettin 30 buks off instead of 20 get it?

but here in Canada, Amazon barely has any deals up or matches discounts offered by US outlet. If its the same owner, why can't they offer the same deals to us up here?

I got 20 credit back for preordering reach, then used it and only paid 40 for castlevania. And for preordering that, I get 20$ more credit.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast12d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM11d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife11d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit11d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife11d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

ocelot0732d ago

Forgot I ordered this until I got the dispatch email.

FPS_D3TH32d ago

Friendlygamer32d ago (Edited 32d ago )
