Cheapskating: AC III, Dishonored & More for $48; Borderlands 2 for $38; $10 Off RE6

Borderlands 2

Sick of searching around the web for the latest gaming deals? GamerNode’s weekly picks in our brand new Cheapskating column will help you immediately find the best gaming deals, whether you’re a console or PC gamer.

For this week, you’ll find a pretty hot $12 off pre-order games promo code at Newegg, giving you immediate savings off any titles $50 and up. (Our picks would be Assassin’s Creed III, XCOM Enemy Unknown, Dishonored, and maybe even Dead Space 3 coming out next year). If you’re a PC gamer, you’ll find two nice deals on recently released titles, including Borderlands 2 for $37.50 and Guild Wars 2 for $45, both at Green Man Gaming (a popular UK-based game retailer).

On the console front, you’ll see a PS3 Slim 250GB unit with Uncharted 3 GOTY edition plus a voucher for Dust 514. If for whatever reason you don’t have a PS3 by now, this is a solid deal at $270. There’s also an Xbox 360 Slim 250GB console for $250 at Best Buy, which somehow beats out Amazon’s current price. Of course, if you’re one of the lucky souls with a fully working Xbox 360 since forever, you can safely ignore this deal.
