I bought the Sony XBR43X800D this week, it's on sale for $799 anywhere that it's in stock right now, but stock seems low at the moment since it's been on sale since last weekend.
It's generally considered the best 4k TV available at the 40-43 size range. Here's the rtings review.
It has HDR and 10-bit/wide colour gamut, and low input lag. The main downside is that it doesn't get super bright, so it doesn't take advantage of HDR to the degree that the more expensive sets do.
I had to bite on Mafia 3 for $39.99 at ebgames.
They sold out of civ 6...patiently waiting in queue at bestbuy now.
I talked myself out of $39.99 WWE2k17...even though I attended survivor series, I know it just won't be very fun.
Also, Call of Duty has too many options this year. I probably would have bit onto $49 IW, but now I must consider whether or not MW remastered is worth the extra $30+tax...
Then I can ponder this weekend how much money I feel like giving to the playstation store...

Like every year for the last 10 years?
I shit you not the Checkout has a queue too
Glad my shopping is done already.
Anyone looking for a gaming-related present for children, TRU has the Mario Kart 8 electric racetrack for 35$, instead of 60$.
Not available online right now it seems, but my local TRU has just unloaded a pallet of them earlier this evening.

Ordered a 3DS. Are there any good game deals to bite on??
I'm looking at the Samsung 6270 e.g. that's currently on sale for 499 at bestbuy, which seems to be the same as the 6300 with a few wiring/plug-downgrades for the holiday sale:
http://ca.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/ku6300
which also has good ratings, especially for gaming?

Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart are 15$ each at Best Buy.
Better than the endless crashes before the queue system was implemented.

They're sold out. Any other good games for 15$?
You're my hero.
Anyone know where the cheapest place is to import that hanafuda cover plate?
I wanted to get a nice monitor that would eventually go with a 1070 laptop I plan to pickup, but I'm so tired I can't be arsed to do the research.
Is anyone in the same boat as me, if so, what did you pick up?
I'm upgrading from a 22" 720p monitor I got in 2007, ha. I'd rather not go bigger than 27", I think 24" would be enough.
edit for clarity: I've already done the research on the laptop, it's just the monitor that I have no clue about.

The 6300 is a great TV in the lower size ranges. The biggest difference from the one I posted earlier is that it doesn't have wide-colour gamut, so the HDR on this one will be pretty negligible.
Other than that it is good. I can't speak to how different the 6270 is when compared to the 6300, though.

I need a new TV. I don't need a super big one, but a decent size would be nice. Does anyone know which of these would be better to get?

Hey guys... I think my list is:
-Macbook Pro 2015
-Hitman Season 1 or Titanfall 2
-Gaming headset (PS4)
-1 or 2 TB HDD, if I can find a really cheap one (PS4)
Any recommendations on a gaming headset for less than $100?

Any chance of Bestbuy restocking these sold out items?
Does Amazon have a flyer of the deals, or something?

OK so, I bought Cloud Core headset
Never bought a headset before but these seem really good for the price. Not on sale, but it wont be, right?
Is this HDD on sale: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B013QFRS2S/
It's marked down, but Im unsure if Ill find a better deal... its for my vanilla PS4

Oh wow, why would they put their stuff up in the middle of the night? Very inconvenient.
Toys R Us has it's buy 2, get $10 off, buy 3, get $15 off which is kind of lame, but they also have a few games on sale which stack with this, notably Final Fantasy XV which is $20 off. Might be worth it with the right combination of games.

They run on Pacific time, so midnight PT = 3am ET. It's always been this way.
If it's any consolation, about 90% of the time it's not worth staying up until 3am and most of the people who do stay up learn to regret it.
Glad I got it at the store after work.

Visit Redflagdeals and visit any boxing day thread from the last 10 years. The queue system is not new.

So I'm guessing all those New 3DS's are all sold out now 'eh? Haha. I wanted a white one

Oh my, thanks.
Doesnt seem to be any 2 TB 2.5" HDDs for that low so Ill check elsewhere
get the Seagate external 2.5 inch TB HDD https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00FRHTSK4/
I took the HDD out of the enclosure and it works.
I bought that same headset in September. It's really good and my friends can hear my much clearer than my old one. The mic is very adjustable and I didn't even think about it when setting it up and had it far away from my mouth at first and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. So yeah, don't be like me. Once I moved the mic in the proper position it was super clear.

So I can take it out of the enclosure, and swap with the 500 GB HDD on my ps4?
Edit: You know what, since the HDD isnt currently really on sale, I think I can wait until next year. But thanks!
Great! Seems like the best choice.
