<p>This year is going to be huge in gaming&#8211;just the first quarter of 2016 will see the likes of <em>Street Fighter V</em>, <em>Far Cry Primal</em>, and <em>Fire Emblem Fates.</em> All of these games, and the surge to follow, will have a heavy impact on your wallet, but Amazon.com seeks to change that with a new offer announced for Amazon Prime members.</p>
<p>Any current or future member of the service will receive 20% off the total purchase price of physical videogame pre-orders, plus the discount will extend for two weeks after the release of these games. That&#8217;s about $12 off of each typical console game. The offer also applies to special and limited edition games.</p>
<p>The substantial discount provided by Amazon is a viable way for the company to expand its reach to gamers. Not only does an annual membership to Amazon Prime now provide you with the 20% off discount, but it also promises members free &#8220;Release-Date Delivery.&#8221;</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the discount has only been announced for Amazon&#8217;s American site. There has been no word on delivering the perk to other territories.</p>
