What To Expect When You’re Black Friday-ing IV
If you own a suit of armor, have a black belt in martial arts, or just don’t care about desecrating a sacred American tradition with pure greed, the barbaric annual event known as Black Friday may be for you. Advertisements and circulars from all the major big boxes are just beginning to be purposely leaked, and here are a few of today’s newly-announced deals you can look forward to seeing in the video game department…..
We said last Friday GameStop was rumored to be holding the reveal for their Black Friday sales until close to Thanksgiving. That’s why we used the word “rumored.” The flyer came out this morning, and here are the goodies within:

XBox One for $329 with digital copies of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag and Assassin’s Creed: Unity

Used XBox 360 Slim for $159 (250 GB) or the original 360 for $89 (keep in mind this was the malfunctioning model)
