Recent Deal News & Articles

There are a lot of things to consider when deciding to buy either an Xbox One or PlayStation 4. Most people default to tech specs as a basis of comparison, and while it’s been long-proven that the PlayStation 4 (PS4) is slightly more powerful than the Xbox One, in all honesty, the differences in game performance are hard to spot unless you’re really looking for them. If your goal is to play with friends who already own a system, or if there’s a game you&r

Netflix has delayed the subscription fee increase for grandfathered users that was supposed to go into effect today, May 9, which would increase the cost from $7.99 to $9.99 a month. If you remember our wildly discussed article from January when news first broke about the fee increase, you know that people weren't so thrilled about paying $2 more every month for the same service. Many were even prepared to cancel their Netflix subscription once the new plans would kick in. Since today was the da

Who doesn’t love a good movie? The big screen, the laughter of a shared joke, the epic scope and massive explosions of a major blockbuster; whatever you want to see, there’s a movie for you. Advancements in TV, sound system and Blu-ray technologies mean that it's easier than ever to bring the theater experience right to your home.

All eyes have been on Amazon since the retail giant recently announced monthly Prime memberships for just $10.99. While that's definitely worthy of our attention, it's also stealing some thunder from this week's other top Amazon stories. To make sure you don't miss a beat, here's a breakdown of what else is trending. Amazon Reserving Some Games & Movies for Prime Members Only The Internet has been buzzing this week since Amazon quietly began restricting non-Prime membe

If pouring over user reviews is part of your online shopping experience, it may be time to rethink your research strategy. It turns out that a good chunk of Amazon reviews are indeed phony, or at least not entirely unbiased. The sheer prevalence of five-star ratings is a red flag in itself. BestReviews.com recently took a closer peek at 360,000 Amazon user reviews that spanned nearly 500 products. What they found was an abnormally high number of user-generated five-star ra

Amazon today began offering monthly subscription models for Amazon Video and Amazon Prime for $8.99 and $10.99 respectively. This is a new direction for Amazon, which up until now only offered the two services bundled together at a flat rate of $99 per year, which you had to pay upfront. By making Amazon Prime available as a monthly subscription without the one-year commitment, they are now in a prime position (pun intended) to convert people who historically only used the

Ubisoft’s latest triple-A title, "Tom Clancy’s The Division," released to generally favorable reviews from critics, but was met with mixed feelings from the actual gaming community. The hesitation to buy "The Division" is understandable since it doesn’t really fall into any one genre. At its core, the game is a shared open-world cover-based third-person shooting and looting role playing game. Phew, that’s a mouthful! There are a lot people that are still on the fence

In less than a year, Amazon has expanded its same-day delivery service to now cover 27 metro areas across the country. If you're a Prime member and live in any of these areas, you can receive your order by 9 p.m. if you order by noon and meet the $35 minimum order threshold. Amazon's same-day delivery service launched in May last year but only included 14 metro areas.
