Like most of the online retailers, Amazon is pushing the holiday season with their specials. Their Black Friday sales start tomorrow, but they've also been having some video game specials leading up to the main event. Today's Deal of the Day is the WII Band Hero Bundle featuring Taylor Swift) for $99.99. If you are a Taylor Swift fan (or have kids that are) and were looking for this one under the tree, that's $80 off and you get the microphone, guitar and drums all in the bundle. Like most of the daily deals, this one has a limited number available (and it's about a third gone already) and a limited time it is offered (less than three hours to go). I also saw that Amazon now requires you to purchase any of these daily/lightning deals within half an hour of placing them in your cart, so that people don't stick them there and then cancel out significantly (and thus keeping someone else from taking advantage of the deal). So, if you want this bundle, grab it and quickly finish your order.Game Description
