Free to keep ... there's a great interview with Telltale Games' PR guy in the latest Game Informer podcast, and according to him, having episodes 1 and 2 free to PS+ members massively boosted sales.

This sale is going to be awesome.

I'm definitely buying:
Frogger Hyper Arcade Edition
World of Keflings DLC
Jet Set Radio
Max Payne 3 DLC (assuming it's also on sale)
Dust
Deadlight (If it's 50% off)
Trials Evolution DLC
Borderlands 2 season pass
Skyrim Hearthfire and Dawnguard DLC

I'd consider RAW if it is heavily discounted, and I'll probably end up buying zuma's revenge also. Maybe even a lego game or two..

This is gonna be expensive... And I need to have some money for the Steam and GOG sales

Glad theyre keeping the mystery with those ? days gotta play the demo for a few of these, but these are what I'm getting.

The 18th
Frogged hyper arcade
Zumas revenge
World of Keflings DLC
Kinect party
Jet set radio
R.A.W.

The 20th
Fez
Hell yea
Mark of the ninja
Trine 2

The 23rd
Dead light
Dust an Elysian tale

The 24th
Trials big pack
Trials evolution and DLC

Definitely in for Jet Set Radio, Fez, and possibly Deadlight. Man, there goes all my BF XBLA points -_-

I'm sitting on Promotional points, which, in the email stated 'Please use the promotional code and the instructions below to redeem your points by 30/12/2012. I've since redeemed it and on the Microsoft Billing website, it's showing that 0 points are expiring within the next 30 days, wth ??

Anyone had any experience with these?

Hmm, looking to get Dust, Mark of the Ninja, and the Skyrim DLC, depending on prices, of course. Not sure about Deadlight. I wasn't quite sold on the demo.

Good sale but what I really wanted 1/2 off was:

Deathsmiles II
Resident Evil Code Veronica HD
Mega Man 9
I Am Alive
Pinball Arcade to finally have the 3 packs of updated tables that the PSN already has.

Still time MS, do it to it!

I really hope Mass Effect 2 or 3 DLC appears. I would love to get From Ashes, Omega, and Leviathan for a cheaper price with my already cheap Microsoft Points. I remember last year or maybe it was the year before getting Shadow Broker for a a great price.

Man I want Fez, Mark of the Ninja, Deadlight, and Dust. Awesome sale.

Was really hoping for deathsmiles II also...

thanks for the list MWB and Zizi!

Count me in for the Borderlands 2 season pass if it hits 1200, 1600 is possible but a little less likely. Was kinda hoping Omega and Dragonborn would be included but since they're so recent releases it makes sense to keep them out. Probably will pick up a few of the arcade games too!

Man, my BF Target cards will lose their virginity after the holiday countdown sale. I might not have a single one left standing after they're pillaged by this sale

In for all these items

Frogger Hyper Arcade Edition
Joe Danger 2 The Movie
Jet Set Radio
MW3 Collections 1-4
Mark of the Ninja
Fez
Deadlight
Trials Evolution
Fruit Ninja DLC
Borderlands 2 Season Pass
Crazy Taxi

Might bite on some Games on Demand titles if they hit the right price(looks at MW3)

I'll try the demo for Frogger Hyper Arcade Edition & Fez and might get those. Same for Dust, but it'd have to be about 600 or less for me to bite. Might get the Fruit Ninja DLC that adds additional achievements (shame the 8-Bit Cartridge one doesn't) if I ever motivate myself to use Kinect again.

Leviathan was just on sale for Black Friday. Hopefully Microsoft will repeat it one day for those who missed out. I'm still waiting for Omega to go on sale and the final story based DLC to be released/go on sale before I do my second play though of Mass Effect 3.

holy crap this is gonna be a busy month for my xbox hard drive!

Is the holiday sale Gold only?

Oh wow, 1st episode of TWD is free? Didn't see that earlier. Already got Ep. 1 & 2 free on PS+, but wouldn't mind replaying through the 1st episode for some easy achievements.

I'll second that question. I just let my Gold sub lapse for the first time in more than four years, and I'm wondering if I'm gonna have to do some math to see if I'll save more by tracking down a cheap 3-month card or something

They haven't been in years past so I doubt it. Probably will get confirmation once we get the prices.
