Deal on UFC Undisputed 3 for 360
For those who may have held off on buying UFC Undisputed 3 but have some level of interest in the game a deal now at Amazon could be a tempting one. Not even two weeks after release and UFC 3 is going for $39.54 just for the Xbox 360 version - the PS3 one hasn't been discounted. This represents essentially $10 lower than the best opportunity at savings earlier when Amazon had offered a $10 promotional credit with pre-orders.
