'Modern Warfare 3' Release Date: Where to Get The Best Prices?
“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3” was one of the biggest game releases of the year Tuesday and millions of gamers are looking to purchase it for the very best price.
Currently, most American retailers are offering the game at its suggested retail value or higher. The XBOX 360 and PS3 versions both go for about $59.99 at most retailers, while the Wii version sells for a more modest $49.99, due to the system’s limited graphics capability.
However, there is a deal to be had, although it might be tough to get your hands on.
London’s Best Buy is offering the game for about 28 British pounds, which equals nearly 45 American dollars. This deal is only while supplies last, so fans would be wise to hurry and order online.
The next best opportunity to pay less than the advertised price seems to be DeepDiscount.com, which offers the popular game for $55.99, which is $4 less than most prices. Their free shipping and no tax deals both apply, although you would have to wait five to ten days for delivery.
The hope of many retailers is to get customers buying “Modern Warfare 3” to do more holiday shopping.
This is the hope of Best Buys across the U.S., which offers an HDTV, an XBOX 360, and the first-person shooter for a combined savings of $160, according to their advertisement.
The game, “Modern Warfare 3,” is the eighth installment of the widely popular shooting game, and it is based on a fictional war between Russia and the U.S., among other interwoven plot lines.
Most gamers purchase the game for the highly realistic war aspects, as well as the addictive multiplayer. Its predecessors have made the franchise one of the most successful of all time, with the games selling over 55 million copies for over $3 billion in profit.
