Eat dust, Best Buy
Deals from the crew at Dealzon. Note: Sales from certain retailers help support Destructoid.
For those people who hate dealing with the crazy crowds during Black Friday, Walmart provides a respite for you today via its pre-Black Friday sale. Everything from toys to video games are at “real” Black Friday prices. (Lots of retailers often do BF pre-sales that are “meh” pricewise.)
While selections are a bit limited, six 2014 titles are now 50% off at Walmart for current-gen consoles. Prices on these games are solid and actually match Best Buy’s advertised Black Friday deals. Supplies are going in and out, so sometimes you’ll see stuff available for shipping, while other times it’ll only be available for pick-up at your local Walmart.
Beyond the six games listed below, there’s also a PlayStation 4 + $50 gift card deal — not bad, but we’d suggest waiting for the Black Friday or Cyber Monday PlayStation 4 bundle deal, which includes The Last of Us and Grand Theft Auto V.
There are also some HDTVs at decent prices, and humorously enough, these are “pre-orders” that won’t process until Black Friday. Some of the other deals such as Skylander Trap Team are now out of stock, but we’ll update this post if anything shows up again through the weekend.
Game Deals
- Watch Dogs (PS4, Xbox One) — $29.96 (list $60)
- Madden NFL 15 (PS4, Xbox One) — $29.96 (list $60)
- FIFA 15 (PS4, Xbox One) — $29.96 (list $60)
- The Evil Within (PS4, Xbox One) — $29.96 (list $60)
- NBA 2K15 (PS4, Xbox One) — $29.96 (list $60)
- PlayStation 4 + $50 Gift Card — $399 (list $399)
Note: BF deal is Last of US + GTA V vs. $50 gift card deal above
Walmart out of stock, GameStop price matched:
HDTV Deals:
- Samsung UN46H5203 46-inch Smart LED HDTV (Pre-order) — $427.99 (list $750)
- Samsung UN32H5203 32-inch 1080p Smart LED HDTV (Pre-order) — $247.99 (list $400)
If you scan through the full list linked above you’ll probably see lots of titles at full price. We’re not sure why Walmart has thrown these into the category but they’re obviously safe to ignore.
Update: Most of the game deals above have ran out of stock, except for The Evil Within. We suspect there will be more in stock given the sale runs through Thursday next week. YMMV, depending on stock level at Walmarts near you.
