Topic: Black Friday 2018 Plans?

Black Friday is almost a week away now and alot of store's ads have either leaked or been officially shared by now...so thought might as well start the thread a bit earlier than normal.

I'll go first for you all. My Black Friday shopping list so far looks like this.

1.) $250-$400 Graphics Card (Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB or a Nvidia GTX 1070 8GB)
2.) $400 Xbox One X (I gotta have the 360 BC + 4K res/stable fps + the few exclusives)
3.) $400 55 inch 4K UHD HDTV with HDR (I own a PS4 Pro and will soon have a XB1X so why not?)
4.) ALOT of video games across Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo (RIP my wallet).

If I have any money left I may consider buying more PC parts, I'm in need of more HDD space and possibly replace my keyboard/mouse combo.

Here's my Black Friday "Things to do" list:
1) Don't waste money on things I don't need only because there's an Ultra Mega Special Sale label on them.
2) Buy those games that really are in my wishlist and ignore the "maybe-I-should-give-this-a-chance" ones.
3) Ask KidBoruto an interest-free loan.

Depends what the deals are. Can’t think of anything I’d really want.

I’d probably bite at Shadow of the Tomb Raider or Far Cry 5 for £15-20.
I’ve got a 4K TV purchase scheduled for BF2019, so that’s not on right now.
Been going back & forth on a Pro... . Would like one for KH3, but I haven’t got a 4K TV & next-gen is looming.

I’ll probably get a bunch of indie/VR titles during the BF PSN sale. Wouldn’t mind a deal on PS+ subs either.

I'll just hide away on this Black Friday. There's already enough on my backlog, I don't need any more games right now. Though if God of War or Spider-Man are heavily discounted then I might bite.

Dunno what it's like elsewhere, but here in the UK Black Friday has been pretty lacklustre for the past few years. Plus, need to be careful of deals not being as impressive as they look, or retailers raising their prices beforehand so that the discounts look better.

Hmm let's see. Get up have some breakfast, go to work and deal with a bunch of crazed customers. Go home have a six pack, play some video games.

Yep that sounds about right.

Stay off the internet. I'm not one to hang about waiting for sales, but I just bought a new kitchen, and I'd rather not see heavily discounted appliances shoved in my face.

@kyleforrester87 You're missing out

@Octane that's the gear I went for funnily enough, I'd just be gutted if I see it half price

Die at work with crazed customers harassing me.
Other than that, see if I can just reserve a PSVR bundle for Christmas.

Not really sure yet. If Red Dead and SoulCalibur are cheap, I'll probably get them, but I otherwise have no plans.

Walmart then probably starbucks in the morning. Hit up Target and BB maybe gamestop (theyre all in the same shopping center) then home for leftovers and drinks with the fam

i might use the opportunity to get some Christmas presents IF i see anything i think would do of course other than that nothing gaming related

I've got 25 quid on Amazon to use but I could use that to get PS credit if there is anything on the store which is amazeballs cheap.

I won't be glued to the internet all day and I defo will be avoiding any shops.

No plans. I don't want to add unnecessarily to my already too-large backlog, and I've already passed up many excellent deals online for just this reason.

Last year I found Captain Morgan 1 liter bottles for € 8. That was an offer I'd like to return. And yes, here in Italy we imported the Black Friday tradition in a strange way...

Been going through the PS5 leaks...the Redditor claims that it will release either March 2020 or November 2020.
Good enough for me. In for a Pro this BF. Hopefully the new revision will be available standalone, otherwise it'll be the RDR2 bundle.

I'm just going to go to The Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.

@KratosMD I thought it was the Friday just gone the way I was getting emailed by certain companies. Honestly I don't actually know when it is come to think of it. Is it the last Friday of November?

Edit: okay, this Friday coming, I think!

Still not planning on getting anything, I dunno - maybe if some good deals show up on games I've forgotten I'll take a punt.

@KratosMD Yeah, that’s a fantastic deal for Detroit. I really liked that game and given your recent desire to experience different kinds of games from the typical open world epics, this will fit in nicely. The polish and graphical quality alone is worth a look at that price.
I’m the same with AC Odyssey, I want to play it at some point and it’s hard to ignore that price.
