Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas HD for the Xbox 360 caught my eye for $8 at Wal-Mart, primarily since I hadn't even realized that this recent download had gotten a retail release until I saw it in the ad.
I also was surprised to see the first three GTA releases on the PS2 advertised in Wal-Mart's ad. Almost certainly will be the last presence that this 15 year old console ever has in a Black Friday ad anywhere.

The only thing there that caught my attention was Gran Turismo 6 new for $5. The $15 that it usually seems to go for at retail these days was the price point that I've been waiting for, but happily, I hadn't yet picked it up so I ended up getting it for 1/3 of its typical price. If it's still in stock at GameStop's website and anyone is a fan of this series and owns a PS3, $5 is hard to beat.
Beats their usual ads where I see nothing appealing each year. Much of it at GameStop in fact just seems to be normal everyday prices in their Black Friday ad, rather than actually representing a discount. If I had bought a new console though, it would've been here thanks to their policy of mandating retail games in lieu of the typical digital download that you'll be stuck with elsewhere.
I also bought the Atari Flashback 6 at Dollar General for $30 for another Black Friday purchase, although both were actually bought on Thanksgiving Day rather than today.
