Black Friday money wasting wrap-up (tell me what pointless stuff you bought too) |
|

With this last purchase right, I own just about every relatively new game that I've been interested in. Final tally:
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - $25 (MSRP $60, still)
Assassin's Creed: Revelations - $8 (MSRP... $20, I think)
12-month XBox Live Gold card - $35 (MSRP $60)
Resident Evil 6 - $25 (MSRP $60)
X-COM: Enemy Unknown - $25 (MSRP $60)
Diablo III - $30 (MSRP $60)
Gears of War 3 - $10 (MSRP $60, according to Microsoft. Dubious)
Which means I spent... $138. With tax, roughly $150. MSRP total is... $380, or roughly $415 with tax. So I saved about $265 bucks after tax. Of course, one would argue that I did not truly save that much since I would never had bought this all at MSRP in the first place, but eh.
About the only niggling thing left for me is that I kind of want the Last Remnant on Steam (currently $9 during the autumn sale). I found out a few weeks ago that I've somehow misplaced my GfWL version, and I'd like to think Skills goes around the world and steals GfWL discs and purges them in a holy flame. So yeah, it's tempting to own it again and on a decent platform.
Did anybody score some good stuff the past couple days?
