The awesome LEGO Indiana Jones is one of many freebies you can get when you buy two other discounted Xbox games. Amazon

Much as I love game consoles, I can't bring myself to spend $60 on a game. Luckily, I have patience: I'm willing to wait till prices come down and deals come along. Case in point: Amazon is offering one free Xbox 360 game when you buy two.

The games are all "Xbox Platinum Hits," and hits they are. The 17 available titles include Assassin's Creed, BioShock (one of my all-time favorites), Gears of War, and Mass Effect.

If you've got kids, the choice is easy: buy LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga and LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (for a grand total of $38.48--did I mention all the games are on sale?) and get LEGO Batman as your freebie.

(Seriously, the LEGO games are phenomenal. Can't recommend them highly enough.)

Just add any three titles to your cart; Amazon will subtract the price of the least-expensive one at checkout. And because you'll invariably end up over $25, you'll get free shipping, to boot. (You'll probably have to pay sales tax, though.)

Suffice it to say, this is a great way to stock up on Xbox gems on the cheap. Just one question for Amazon: when can we get this deal on PlayStation 3 titles?
