Black Friday 2011 Deals [Updated as information comes along]

As everyone knows, Black Friday is slowly creeping in as the holidays near. Everyone wants the best deal for their gaming needs, but usually don’t know where to go. With this comprehensive list, shopping should feel a little bit easier. One suggestion I would give is to write down exactly what you want so that you can go to these stores, grab what you need, and head out quickly.

Now, these deals are all from leaks, but cannot be confirmed until the day the legitimate releases are out. Therefore, any information we post for the time being will from an outside source unless otherwise noticed. The lists will be in order by item because doing single posts by one store will complicate things when trying to compare prices. Not every single specific item will be posted, but big-name items will. The deals will mostly be in order by best deal, but with all the information to put out, that can’t be promised as of yet.

Happy shopping, let the deals begin.
