Big Deal on the Internet

Welcome to “Big Deal on the Internet” – our weekly news post that brings you the biggest gaming deals across the internet every Tuesday.

This is the week of Thanksgiving, er, Black Friday and just so we all have a little bit to be thankful for, due to popular demand from last week’s Big Deal on the Internet post, we have a little section of UK PC Downloads for our friends across the pond.

Today, we have the best prices on new releases Hitman: Absolution – Professional Edition and the PC version of Assassin’s Creed 3. Or if you frugally abstain from new releases, there are a couple buy-somethin-get-somethin sales on used games from Gamefly and Best Buy worth checking out. Also notable: Mass Effect 2 is under the $10 mark.

Amazon has a slew of $2 PC download offers that come with an extra $5 credit to be used on select download games in 2013. But be aware that the bonus credits can only be used one at a time, not in $20 or (who we kidding?) $50 chunks. In the 2-buck pool you’ll find 4 SEGA Genesis Classics collections each with 10 titles.

In hardware there are several solid 2ms monitor deals, Samsung 840 series SSDs up to $69 off next best price, and a Black Friday Dell XPS desktop that we found hidden but live on Dell’s site.
