Good news, Amazon Prime users! You will now be able to pre-order your new games at a discounted price of 20% off. This offer still applies up to two weeks after the game’s initial release date. I did a bit of research and found that this also applies to collectors’ editions and apparently, all existing Prime members’ pre-orders will be modified to include the new discount (though I checked a few of my existing pre-orders and this has not been applied yet).

News Update: Fallout 4 Confirmed
It started as a whisper in the wind. A leaked document here and there, and a fake website that was debunked. Now, seven years after the critically acclaimed Fallout 3, Bethesda Game Studio has officially announced one of the most anticipated game in recent years; Fallout 4. Today at 10:00 a.m. E.S.T, Bethesda released a teaser trailer, along with some new information! Fallout 4 will supposedly be set in Boston, home to the Institute, an important organization within the Fallout universe (primarily Fallout 3). Throughout the trailer, we were able to get a glimpse of the game world, from the beautiful city itself to the desolate wasteland inhabited by strange monsters. We were also able to catch a glimpse of what happened in Boston before the nuclear disaster. Bethesda promised to reveal more during their first ever e3 press conference. Fallout 4 will be coming to all next generation consoles (PS4, Xbox1, PC).
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Release Date and Gameplay Details
As expected, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate was announced this morning and it will hit stores October 23rd. This game boasts the largest map so far along with multiple new gameplay features. Among these features is a new hand-to-hand combat system and the ability to drive vehicles. Both of these new features were prominent in the video with the primary vehicle being horse carriages. The game will feature a faster and more brutal combat style, with new Assassins Jacob Frye and his twin sister Evie Frye both playable. Jacob will be able to use a grappling hook, a revolver, brass knuckles, and a variety of knives (hand-to-hand combat-oriented as well as throwable). The game will take place in Victorian London as Jacob and Evie climb from the bottom, an underground world of organized crime, to take back London from the upper elites who abuse the lower working class.
Assassin’s Creed Syndicate to be Officially Announced May 12th?
UPDATE: I read here on a Kotaku article that the name has apparently been changed to Assassin’s Creed Syndicate! I personally like this name much better, though we will know for sure soon enough! Keep reading for the initial news post…
