Best Buy's Black Friday discounts are now online, and while they include many similar deals to those of Target and Sam's Club, the electronics store has some unique offers for gamers who aren't just looking to pick up a new system at a great price, but games, too.

$299 PS4 and XBOX ONE STRIKE AGAIN

Just like nearly every other retailer whose Black Friday deals have already gone up, Best Buy is selling a PlayStation 4 bundle with Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection for $299. The Xbox One bundle with Gears of War: Ultimate Edition will also be available at that price.

The best Battlefront bundle: $50 off

Best Buy will sell the limited edition Star Wars Battlefront bundle, which includes a copy of the game along with a 500 GB PS4, for just $349. That's $50 off the standard asking price.

OTHER XBOX BUNDLE OPTIONS

Best Buy is the place to go for the Microsoft fan waiting to break into the current generation. Not only does it offer the standard $299 deal, but the store has two other great Xbox One bundles available for Black Friday.

The most notable is the Friday morning doorbuster. When stores open at 8 a.m. Nov. 27, the quickest shoppers will be able to grab a 40-inch Samsung 1080p HDTV set for $499.98. The TV comes with an Xbox One bundle including the console and The Lego Movie: The Game.

This offer is a repeat of one Best Buy had earlier this year, and will be available in limited numbers.

If you can't grab the TV/Xbox combo — or just don't need a new TV, anyway — there's also an attractive Tomb Raider-themed bundle available during the holiday weekend. Starting Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26, at 5 p.m., you can stop by Best Buy to grab an Xbox One that comes with both 2013's Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider, Lara Croft's brand new adventure. That set will cost you $349.99, a savings of $50 according to the retailer.

Along with the pair of games, that set comes with a free wireless controller, as well.

JOIN XBOX LIVE OR PS PLUS FOR PEANUTS

While some of the biggest new releases like Fallout 4 and Halo 5: Guardians won't be sold at a discount, when you pick them up during the sales period you can also grab a 3-month subscription to either Xbox Live or PlayStation Plus for just $4.99.

NOT MUCH FOR NINTENDO

The only Nintendo console that is getting a price cut for Black Friday at Best Buy is the New Nintendo 3DS XL. The latest iteration of the handheld will be $20 off, costing $179.99.

These deals start on Thanksgiving, Nov. 26 and continue through the weekend.
