The end of this Amazon Prime discount spells bad news for gamersAmazon is cutting its pre-order discount on video games.
Earlier this week, Amazon announced that it would no longer offer a 20% discount on video game pre-orders for Prime members beginning August 28. The discount could only be applied to standard games, but it was still a nice benefit to the service which just recently raised its price in mid-June. Amidst news of the discount's demise also came the announcement that Twitch Prime would no longer remain ad-free.
For gamers who relied on the pre-order discounts to save money, this could have a huge impact on whether they continue their Prime membership or not. Now that Gamer's Club Unlocked has ended at Best Buy (and GameStop's Elite Pro program), there is no longer a major retailer for people to turn to for a consistent discount on video games. Do you see this as the end of your Amazon Prime membership too?
You can still snag the 20% discount for a few more days, so make sure to get in your orders for upcoming games like Super Sma...
