Amazon is doing black friday, but it’s doing it in classic Amazon form. The online retail giant is starting its “black friday” deals as early as friday, November 20, with deals continuing to pop up until the 27th and beyond. It’s not the only retailer to attempt to extend the black friday concept, but it’s one of the most aggressive out there. It makes sense: Amazon thrives by subverting retail tradition wherever it stands, and this is the company’s attempt to both take advantage and ownership of the black friday idea. From a video game perspective, the deals are a lot like what we’ve seen from other retailers: $50 off all Xbox One consoles, $299.99 for the Uncharted Collection PS4 bundle, and discounts on software that we assume are going to continually roll in, like $25 off Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. The company has also promised “hundreds” of PC download deals at up to 70% off: something like the Steam summer sale.
