For anyone who couldn’t quite pull the trigger on Madden ‘09 CE at its $90 price point (and goodness why would you), you can now get the whole damn package for $45. To put it another way, until they sell out, you can get the CE for $15 less than the regular edition. And hey, if you really want to be a cheap bastard, flip the included copy Head Coach ‘09 on ebay for $35 and pay a grand total of $10 for this year’s Madden. Not too shabby.

So for anyone who doesn’t already know, which I guess would be everyone, I love both games and deals. Combining those two things gives me a feeling inside that I can only describe as “completeness”. Of course that feeling only lasts a few seconds, and I’m off to find the next great gaming deal. And now, since Tapezilla loves its readers/listeners, I’ll be sharing the knowledge with you. So enough of the nonsense… let’s rap about deals, man.

One of the things I hate hearing is everyone complaining about prices on Xbox Live (or Xdude Live as I usually refer to it). If you’re smart, you never pay full price for anything, and that INCLUDES DLC and fresh games on Xdude Live. While I’m still living off MS points from the Halo 3/MS Points deal from last summer, those of you who are all out can grab a 1600 points card at Target this week for $15. But why stop there? If you grab two cards for $30, you can use the $5 off $25 coupon that’s floating around and end up paying just about $12.50 a piece for your cards. What’s that equal? Well just like that, the average Rock Band song just dropped to $1.25. That huge Shivering Isles expansion for Oblivion just went from $30 to a little over $18. And The Penny Arcade game is… well, still an over-priced piece of trash.

And before you e-mail me, yes I’m well aware of the other coupon floating around…

Keep checking back for even more deals… man.
