    I own both Trouble in Paradise and Guerrilla, but I'd say those are good.

    I mean, in my highly-regarded and extremely important opinion, Red Faction: Guerrilla is one of the finest games ever made.

    It goddamn is, and it kills me that they made that dumb sequel then imploded

    Ah well with the whole rumours about Crackdown having destructible buildings im hoping the gameplay at its core will live on

    As a game, Guerilla has some issues, but the hammer-based destruction physics makes me incoherently giddy with delight.

    Okay the story being whatever is fine, I'll allow that.

    Then you grab a bomb, slap it to a building, hit 'detonate' and forget all about whatever the hell it was you were just worrying about because oh my with enough of these I could bring down a building.

    Then inside that building you find a giant, unstoppable mech that has a specific table-flip/"HEY KOOL-AID!" animation for smashing through walls.

    And then you will know it as your Lord and saviour.

    With Call of Duty pressing the issue, I'm suddenly in the market for a PS4. Not necessarily this instant, but soon. Have there been any good deals on just the console, or is that Destiny bundle the best that I can hope for? (I'm not all that interested in Destiny)

    I would say at this point you should just wait until Black Friday. Watch BFAds.net or somewhere like it for ad leaks, particularly GameStop/WalMart/Best Buy. If you don't want to get out that day, Amazon will very likely have similar or better deals. Sam's Club appears to have the Destiny Bundle for $399 starting soon (next week, I think?).

    Sounds good. I was reviewing the list of worthwhile non-PC games on PS4, and the list is pretty much just Infamous, and some smaller games like Resogun and Velocity 2X, so I'll probably just wait a bit.

    Walmart is doing 79$ for 2DS right now. Out of stock online, but in store its at that price. They are saying this is a 'black friday for all of november' campaign, and have a ton of other stuff going on with TV's as well today.

    Red Faction Guerilla is the best bridge deconstruction simulator of all time.

    Every time it goes on sale on steam I get excited and then sad because I understand the PC version to be total hot wet garbage.

    From Nelson.
    As announced last month, starting today you’ll be to save $50 on Xbox One bundles purchased in the US until January 3, 2015.*

    I just checked and the following participating retailers now have the special, limited-time promotional pricing now available:

    Amazon

    Best Buy

    It's...complicated. Popular theory is that it's mainly based on allowing sales trackers to collect and post their data on Monday. So releasing the next day won't interfere. Over time, it's just become the thing they do and generally most distributors are set up to deliver on time for Tuesday releases.

    So with Best Buy offering GCU for $30 with a game purchase of at least $39.99, does the 20% discount apply to that first game, or would it be subsequent purchases only?
