The Secret World on sale for 50% off this weekend on Amazon
Anyone who has been on the fence about purchasing Funcom's horror/sci-fi MMORPG The Secret World can hop off and grab the game for just half price this weekend from Amazon. For just $24.99 for the digital download, players can delve into the world of conspiracies to fight zombies, solve puzzles, and experience the immersive stories. Players who prefer a box will have to lay out a little more cash as the price jumps a bit to $29.44, which is still a significant savings of over 20 bucks. However, these players will have to act quickly as game boxes are going fast. Of course, both purchases include 30 days of game time.
Today's Xbox Live deal: 50% off all Fallout 3 DLC
Watch your head, folks, because prices are falling. Today's Xbox Live holiday deal of the day is targeted directly at DLC for Bethesda's critical and commercial darling, Fallout 3. If you're looking to add more intense VATS-related action to the RPG, each add-on pack is available for 400 ($5) a piece -- a 50% savings of your Microsoft-branded space bucks. New to the Fallout 3 universe? There are five DLC add-on packs for the (already) lengthy RPG. Arguably the most important -- and one you should tackle first -- is Broken Steel, which increases the game's overall level cap to 30 and allows players to continue playing beyond the conclusion. Also, a Game of the Year edition is available in stores, which includes all of Fallout 3's downloadable content -- making it cheaper if you don't already own the game to begin with.

Best Buy offering buy-one-get-one-half-off for 360 games
Last week, Canadians were privy to a fantastic deal, netting them Batman's latest adventure for $40. This week, American gamers are being treated to a buy-one-get-one-half-off promotion at Best Buy on a laundry list of Xbox 360 software. The deal is pretty simple: Purchase one qualifying Xbox 360 title and get a second game (of equal or lesser value) for 50% off. To sweeten the deal Best Buy is even throwing in free shipping for your purchase.Strangely, the fine print mentions gamers can only select items that are currently in stock, but list Modern Warfare 2 as one of the qualifying titles. Keep in mind that this offer can end at any time, so if you're looking to stock up for the winter season now is as good a time as any.[Thanks, vidGuy!]
