http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/2010/02/custom_1265475051628_couponpreorder.jpgMy lord, they've already started preorder bonuses on Madden NFL 11. And of course, Tuesday's big releases also get inducements. Clear your throats and hit the jump for Weekend Coupons (http://kotaku.com/tag/weekendcoupons/). RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-COLA!
Software
• Amazon offers $10 credits with pre-orders of two games launching this Tuesday: Dante's Inferno (http://dealzon.com/deals/dantes-inferno) (PS3/360 $57) and Bioshock 2 (http://dealzon.com/deals/bioshock-2), which is $5, $4, and $3 off for 360, PS3, and PC, respectively. [Dealzon]
• Amazon and Walmart.com have kicked off six months of pre-order Maddeness, offering $20 credits with Madden NFL 11 (http://dealzon.com/deals/madden-nfl-11). And the shelf-clearing begins with a Madden NFL 10 + NCAA Football 10 (http://dealzon.com/deals/madden-nfl-10-and-ncaa-football-10-xbox-360) 360 combo, $65 shipped from the Microsoft Store. Best prices elsewhere are $45 and $47, $92 for the both. [Dealzon]
• Here's a post-order, but a good deal if you've yet to grab Mass Effect 2 for the PC. GoGamer has it for $39.90, use coupon SHIPFREE25 to get free shipping [TechDealDigger (http://www.techdealdigger.com/pr/cheap-mass-effect-2-pc-deals/2931)]
• GamersGate says it's added servers and quadrupled download speeds. Further, it's offering Bioshock half off through Sunday in anticipation of BioShock 2's release on Tuesday. They've also got a new sales partner, Telltale Games, and so have 10 percent discounts on Tales of Monkey Island, Sam & Max Season 1 and 2, and Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. Also, tomorrow only, Red Faction 1 and 2 will be half off. [GamersGate (http://www.gamersgate.com/)]
• Steam's Weekend Deal: Far Cry is $4.99, Far Cry 2: Fortune's Edition is $9.99. [Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/sub/2863/)]
• GameFly subscribers can take advantage of some rockbottom used game prices with free shipping. Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, Ghostbusters and X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Uncaged Edition are each $9.99, Call of Duty: World at War is $14.99 and Prototype is $17.99. All games are Xbox 360. [Cheap Ass Gamer (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/?f=1815)]
Hardware
• Xbox 360 consoles continue 360-deals-a-year pace as PS3s continue to command MSRP. The Xbox 360 Arcade with a $25 Gift Card deal ends at Amazon today. Then on Sunday Best Buy will take the torch (plus tax) for the coming week. Elite is $294 + free extra controller at Amazon today and Dell has the Elite for $269.99 + tax. [Dealzon (http://dealzon.com/deals/xbox-360)]
• The 11-inch Alienware M11x gaming laptop that we said is "worth looking into once it hits the market" (http://kotaku.com/5442784/alienwares-sub-12+inch-sub-1k-gaming-laptop) has hit the market. Starts at $799 + some nickel-and-dime $1.95 shipping [Dealzon (http://dealzon.com/deals/dell-alienware-m11x-11-inch-gaming-laptop)]
• Deanbmmv (http://kotaku.com/people/deanbmmv/) points out an interesting sale that I guess qualifies as hardware. The Valve Store - this is their merch shop, t-shits and stuff, not games, features a 10 to 50 percent of sale on all Valve branded items until Feb. 14. Left 4 Dead hats, Aperture Labs parking passes, headcrabs, go for it. [Valve Store (http://store.valvesoftware.com/)]
As always, smart gamers can find values any day of the week, so if you've run across a deal, share it with us in the comments.
