Best Buy has become the best Video game retailer IMO. The only negative I have against them are the used games sales. Their selection is so sparse all the time.

If they only bring themselves to Europe.

MAJ0R4480d ago

Apparently they don't do very well in the UK, so that's probably why they haven't moved into a lot of Europe.

zeeshan4479d ago

I usually wait a few days because Amazon usually price match it.

CoLD FiRE4479d ago

Why would anyone buy Assassin's Creed Revelations for $40 when they can get it for $29.99 from Amazon?

KrimsonKody4479d ago

HENCE;
The buy 2 get 1 free deal.
Indeed, you may spend an extra $10 from not buying @ Amazon.
But you can save a decent dub + ($20 or more) from the 3rd game you get free.

TIP; Buy 1 game valued @ standard price, let 2nd game be of lesser value, then choose the 3rd (free) game @ the same or lesser value of the 1st.
The closer in value the 3rd game is, the more you benefit (& save).

ABizzel14479d ago

Actually Best Buy had it for $35 the first week it was out, and had it for $30 a couple of times since then with the @gamer magazine discount and regular in-store prices. So if you really wanted it you already bought it from Best Buy last year.

Gamestops already having this deal. Glad they are got some used games to buy!

ABizzel14479d ago

Game stop doesn't give you $20 off brand new games, nor does Game Informer give you coupons to use on new / used games like @gamer magazine.

Gamestop has fallen and Best Buy is taking over. Gamestop was great during the PS2 / Xbox / GC days, but now they're greedy to the max.

Anyone remember Funcoland?

Steam Uproar as Capcom Slips In Restrictive DRM Software

From Xfire: "Steam users and the larger PC gaming community are lashing out at Capcom over a streak of sneaky DRM updates as the Japanese gaming giant continues to flirt with controversy"

LordoftheCritics93d ago

RIP

Capcom turning into Ubisoft.

Well success can have that effect.

just_looken92d ago

Yep this shows how bad a digital world is now well for the old titles new games disc or not the drm is there but you can get the old games on dvd then try to monkey the last pre drm update onto the game files.

I love GOG for this reason i saw that skyrim bs update so i know not to run that version as gog you can select what patch to download/install with capcom hopefully we get a list of the update numbers that add this horrific drm.

With denuvo as a alder lake pc user it still has issues with E cores and i remember when the servers were taken offline forcing hundreds of games to be paperweights.

It's also really annoying how they can cut or change content later, like the Skull Girls controversy, a decade later after the game came out, they decide to censor it. The game is a decade old, if it's not broken, leave it, adding DRM back into older games is BS.

just_looken92d ago

@final

Good point even major sp games got the cut after the fact be it last of us with maps/art or gta 5 removing stuff in the world.

Cyberpunk ps4 day one disc copy the sept build still has stuff the other versions no longer have.

With the gta 6 controversy right now i think back to the days of saints row creating a character beating up cops with a dildo bat and now we have elon crying over gta 6 guns killing cops i bet you if they made saints row 2 hd they would half to cut half the games content or go to jail lol also sad.

Was watching avatar last airbender 13yr old ang kissing katar again can not have that in a kids show or game now.

PRIMORDUS92d ago (Edited 92d ago )

Do they want more of their games to be torrented? Seems like it, I don't mind 🤣 Just ripped them a new asshole on Twitter, as I do not care what I say or post on there LOL.

banger8892d ago

Let me guess, you have a vpn enabled. For your sake I hope it's not in any 5 Eyes territories.

PRIMORDUS92d ago

I have ExpressVPN but on Twitter I don't use it lol. For other things I use it :D

Barlos92d ago

Nice. I got a lifetime ban on Twitter back in 2020 for speaking my mind. Don't care tbh, I'm not really into social media. I don't even have a Facebook account.

PRIMORDUS91d ago

I'm still trying to get banned to lol I'll keep at it 🤣 I have FB but maybe log in once a month but yeah always speak your mind no matter how bad the words come out, do not hold back online or IRL. Fuck them shit bags lol.

got_dam92d ago

This is classic Capcom. They everything they go on a hot streak and win back some consumer good will they have to turn around and burn it to the ground and have to start the whole process again.

Chocoburger92d ago (Edited 92d ago )

Additional DRM just pushes people to pirate more. These ignorant executives just don't get it. Only the legitimate customer is affected by DRM. 😕

Darkegg92d ago

Drm punishes legit customers and encourage hackers. It’s the wrong way to go about it.

It's Time For Resident Evil's Most Unique Mode to Make a Comeback

With series staple Mercenaries Mode returning to the Resident Evil 4 Remake, it’s time to remind fans of another mostly forgotten mode from the RE series. Reaching the second chapter in the 2012 3DS game Resident Evil: Revelations unlocked something called Raid Mode for players to enjoy. Unlike Mercenaries, Raid Mode is not a time-attack mode and instead operates as a more RPG-lite version of the main game. While players are expected to try and hammer down on a handful of levels in Mercenaries, Raid Mode gives players a much more expansive game type to play around with.

This mode was included in ports released on the seventh and eighth generations of consoles and was part of Resident Evil: Revelations 2, which was released in 2015. However, the Revelations duology is the only time that Raid Mode has existed in the massive Resident Evil franchise, and that should change in some future release.

I'd like to raid mode make a return in the future. When Capcom was hacked there was a as of yet announced RE game in there that I was hoping might turn into Revelations 3. There were also reports that whatever that RE game was scrapped and cancelled.
