Deal Of The Week: GameFly Blowout Sale

Crying Kid Over Used Games

Most of us out there are trying to save up all of our clams and change we find in the couch cushions trying to get our hands on this year’s biggest titles.  $60 bucks for a brand new title is a big chunk of change to swallow for most gamers, so I bring a little breathing room for all of you guys and gals.  This might just be what you Loot Ninja gamers need to hold you over until the mass hysteria of Black Friday and Christmas shopping.

GameFly is doing a $20 dollar and below blowout sale on a select list of pre-played games.  This offer does include free shipping and handling, as well as the 100% GameFly guarantee that the games have been pre-inspected and come with the actual case and a “like new” manual.  Read the list of games and more after the jump.

I’m No Daddy Warbucks…

Okay, this post is for all you broke, penniless, spindle toting gamers like me who can barely afford to pay attention.

We here at Loot Ninja are all poor, working stiffs, thanks mostly to our wives and/or girlfriends spending all our money on useless random crap, like “furniture” and “the water bill”. This does not include Scuba, because he’s a fancy man and loves to sit naked on his imported Scandinavian furniture, while sipping expensive wine and nibbling cheese cubes.

Anyways, we will be bringing back the old “Broke Bastard Alerts”, and trying to polish that turd up a little more. We like to think of ourselves as the oil speculators of the gaming market. Rest assured, when the prices drop, we are ALL over it.

Here’s the deals for this go round.

  • DLC titles Brain Challenge, Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting, and 3D Ultra MiniGolf Adventures are now available at 400 Microsoft Points each on XBLA.
  • Amazon.com this week price cut Xbox Live Gold Card SKU’s by 20%, including the Xbox Live 3-month Gold Card at $15.99, and the Xbox Live 12-month Gold Card at $39.99

So get ‘em while the gettin’s good.

As usual, user submissions are welcome, so if you see a great deal on anything gaming related, send it our way and we’ll post it up.
