The game is getting a soft discount around here right now, if the discount becomes substantial I'll go for it.

During black friday we usually find ways to combo discounts and coupons around here, so I'm looking foward for Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin, FF16 too to a lesser extent, as that one becomes a good find used sooner or later too.

Edit: lol, as soon as I posted I got a coupon for a store doing an early black friday deal on Rise of the Ronin, got it for $29 with shipping included.

Where do you typically buy your games from?

I'm from Brazil, dunno if you would still be interested in knowing, but if you are, here it goes.

When I buy new games there are 3 places I usually get them.

1. Amazon

As a Amazon Prime member I get free shipping for basically everything I buy there, as most come from Amazon themselves and there is 100% guaranteed free shipping from them. Usually it also ships pretty fast coming from them too. Not very easy to get coupons from them, tho.

2. Mercado Livre

This is the Brazilian branch of an Argentinian site called Mercado Libre (meaning Free Market) that fuction somewhat like both Amazon and Ebay. I'm also a member there and get a lot of free shippings. There is also a good chance of getting coupons there, way bigger than on Amazon.

3. Kabum

This is a Brazilian site focused on tech, mostly PCs, it's one of the biggest places in the country to find PC parts and also have a decent amount of console games to get. It's very rare to get free shipping there as I'm not a member. This is where I got Rise of the Ronin today, it's harder than Mercado Livre to get coupons but still a lot easier than Amazon. This is also where I bought nearly all parts of my PC when I was building it.

When I buy used games (mostly bought used games during the PS3 and PS4 gens, and I still buy a few of them too) they usually came from 2 main places.

1. Mercado Livre

As I said, it also function likes Ebay and it's pretty good to find used games directly from other people there, it's one of the safest places to do that kind of gaming hunt online nowdays, when 15 years ago it was actually one of the riskier places (here in Brazil there is scams going on everywhere, you do have to be always on watch for those, lol).

2. Meu Game Usado

The name means My Used Game. I don't buy from there that often anymore, but it is where I got most of my used games for sure, it is the branch focused on selling used games from a Brazilian site that sells new games called ShopB. I found some excellent prices there back in the day, sadly used games are expensive there nowdays, and as you can't actually see the actual copy before you get it, as they usually have multiple of them, it's not the best place to get it anymore.

I have gotten games from some of the most random sites from here, it was a lot of fun to search the internet for a new niche place that was not a scam and had good deals, lol.
