It’s almost deal season, which means I get defrosted and brought out to the front for a few months to play, just like Michael Bublé or Mariah Carey every Christmas. I kid, I’m here all year round banging the deal drum, you’ll just be seeing a lot more of me in the holiday season. Right now, there’s a huge discount on Xbox Controllers that should tickle your fancy, especially as it’s unlikely we’ll see a better deal before Black Friday at the end of November.
Shock Blue – £39.99Pulse Red – £39.99Electric Volt – £39.99Xbox Green – £39.99Deep Pink – £39.99
Xbox Controllers are down to £39.99 at Amazon UK, which is up to £25 off the list price, and a pretty excellent deal all things considered (it even price matches the Black Friday offer from last year). If you’ve been after a new gamepad, or you’re looking for a nice gift going into the festivities, this is a perfect price. This is especially true since there’s every colour going in the deal, like Shock Blue, Pulse Red, Electric Volt, Astral Purple, and more. I recently bought my partner the lovely Deep Pink, which she absolutely loves.
In other Xbox controller news, the Ghost Cipher transparent controller also recently went up for preorder at Amazon, listed for £64.99. It’ll release on October 10, and look rather amazing if you ask me. If you have been loving Xbox’s venture into OG Xbox 2000’s nostalgia territory, the new gamepad style should certainly be tickling your fancy.
Other notable big deals right now include the Meta Quest 3 discount that I’m going absolutely barmy for. It’s a massive deal, especially since it includes Batman Arkham Shadow bundled in with it now. ICYMI the discount, you can grab it for just £409.99 for the 128GB version, or £469 for 512GB in the UK. In the US, the 512GB version is also down $499 at Amazon, a significant $150 off its original price. Also in the US, Lenovo currently has Xbox Controllers for $39 with code XBOXMODE.
