Well this sale was pretty damn good. Made of with Bully, Dust, and The Walking Dead for 2200 MSP. Not bad. Too bad I won't play any of these games for awhile, cause I gotta focus on Dead Space 2.

Nothing for me for today's sale. I Hope it ends well with Skyrim DLC for half tomorrow now.

I was so pleased with the Trials Origin of Pain DLC that I decided to buy the new Riders of Doom that just came out...and wasted 400msp.

They should mention that RoD is geared mostly towards hardcore players. Anyone who enjoys easy/medium and most of hard, but skips extreme like I do should completely ignore the new DLC.

Thanks for the info! Even though I own both of these, don't have a hell of a lot of patience for the former's pace, and totally suck at the latter. And speaking of sucking at fighting games! ... I'd pick up VF5 and SFIII at 67% off, but will have to say no this time.

And now to decide if I wanna splurge for Joe Danger 2, Frogger, Jet Set Radio, RAW, S4E2, or even Naughty Bear...

going to finally pick up peggle -- was looking for feedback about Peggle Nights. I have gotten so many games this sale I am not sure if I need Nights. I am not sure where I am going to find the time! Does this game have a lot of content w/o the dlc. does the dlc add different styles of play? only 200 but 200 saved is 200 earned--thanks

I'm going to guess price drops for January, but I know nothing.

I'm of the mindset that you're either going to be indifferent toward Peggle or practically snort lines of Peggle. If you enjoy Peggle vanilla, Nights is an absolute necessity.

I will say it doesn't drastically alter the game. I can't share much deets since I blazed through Peggle on PC quite some time ago. I should fire it up on the sexbox.

Peggle Nights is another good, addictive Peggle campaign, which is what you want for Peggle DLC.

Not sale related, but does anyone happen to know and/or can confirm if the GoD version of the original Naughty Bear is the Gold edition or just standard?

Thanks guys.

Damn I was hoping SF III and VF would be 400 points each

Thanks for the heads up!

I would agree except that most 1200 point games get price drops to 800 points. Don't think there are any xbla games at 600 points that aren't on sale.

Could be a sale started too soon. Maybe a new years day sale. Who knows.

Edit: and as far as peggle and pvz go....I've waited this long for them to drop lower so I will continue to do so since these two go on sale quite frequently. Doubt they will go lower but since I have such a large backlog it's worth waiting to see if they do go on a crazy sale one day knowing they'll be on sale again soon if I finally run out of games to play.

Woot! I'd attribute them to the "12/30" fighting games 1-day sale" until we know later tonight when the Xbox.com page goes live. Adding to the OP now ... Done! Not too worried about format for now, since we'll know within a few hours if it's a 1-day deal, or misc. promotion.

very much appreciated-- into the backlog it goes!

Wow. Just got upstaged by Cornelius.

So since we got new additions for tomorrow's sale, I hope they finally put all the Oblivion DLC on sale. I am too much of a CAG to pay full price of the DLC I did not get with the GOTY and horse armor (I think it was the only one of those to go on sale) just does not cut it.

Standard edition came out 9/9/10, with most DLC following up within 2-3 months, and the Gold edition came out 5/8/11. Since the GoD version came out 1/3/12, I'm 90% sure it'll be the Gold edition, since that's the only version 505 Games was producing following May 2011. I guess check the Xbox.com forums if you want more assurance?

Awwww, crap ... see, this is why I post in the thread that I'm making changes ... so that we're not literally racing each other for edits! Sorry about that!

Check the store copies as I believe the Naughty Bear Gold now also includes the arcade title for only 20 USD.

No. Don't worry...you did a much better job than I did because you at least know how to use the posting techniques. I just put the info so it's there and then it just allows you to get it right.

I find it amusing that I'm tempted to get Toy Story 3... to play, myself. No kids or anything like that. Surprised to see the good reviews floating around. Also surprised to see that the disc-based version is still fairly expensive for a game that's over 2.5 years old (especially given that it's a movie-based one).
