Heck yes, me too. Still on the fence with Tony Hawk..

Then again, I'm wondering if they just might do a package deal instead of individual sales. All 5 episodes for 1200 or 1600 or something. That way you end up paying for episode 1 even if you get it free. But that could just be my paranoia talking.

I do not think you are paranoid at all. I would not be surpirsed if the free episode 1 is the only discount. I am just hoping for any discount

Dust is amazing. Even if you didn't know that 1 guy did it all (almost all) and had to learn programming to do it, it's amazing on its own. Puts many seasoned programming veterans to shame (you hear me, Capcom???).

Mark of the Ninja is amazing so far as well. Microsoft is really publishing some gems this year.

I was honestly going to pick up Tony Hawk until I read the negative feedback on this thread. Decided to put those points +200 into Bully instead (glad I did).

Tony Hawk is garbage, please don't buy it. I got it out of nostalgia and instead I got a bag of dog crap burning on my digital doorstep.

Picked up Deadlight and Dust! Been waiting for those. I know its super old, but I wish Rocket Knight would go on sale at some point.

Oops too late. I don't think anyone plays this online tried finding some games

Originally Posted by Jackie Chandler Thanks for keeping this thread bumped guys. I almost forgot about this sale. I picked up Tony Hawk and Dust, and I'll be picking up all the episodes of The Walking Dead once Friday rolls around. Is it safe to assume they'll all be 200 apiece? If so, I'll probably pick up Trials Evolution as well, since that'd leave me at 70 MSP.

With episode 1 free, that would mean the complete season would only cost $10. That would make it even cheaper than the steam deal. Find it hard to believe XBLA could beat steam, but we'll see. I would actually buy the episodes if they were 200 a piece. As it is now I'm just planning on grabbing the free episode.

My guess is 300-320 MSP apiece ... since you're getting Episode 1 for free, and the Season Pass on PSN is $20. Therefore, paying $15 - $16 for all 5 episodes is still technically a better deal than what PSN gets. PS+ would be around the same price, as long as you caught both ep's 1 & 2 during their short "free" period, and this Countdown to 2013 is currently no better than PSN's own year-end sale.

Grabbed Deadlight and Dust, which worked out since I had 1200 points on my account.

I grabbed Dust and Deadlight.

I'm surprised at how awesome Deadlight is. I really wasn't expecting much when I loaded up the demo, but I was convinced to buy it pretty quickly.

Picked up Dust.

Now all that's left is to get the Skyrim DLC at the end of the month. Hopefully the 1000 points I have left lets me net both of those without issue.

x360a is OK, but TrueAchievements is truly awesome, especially when you're talking about finding partners for older games. I was able to get a Splosion Man partner recently to finally run through the multiplayer, and was even able to find someone local to go through the GH3 local co-op. You set up gaming sessions and get feedback on other gamers based on whether they were cool or a dick in their sessions. They have it down to a science, keeping track of your sessions and e-mailing reminders before they start. Honestly, it sounds like what a lot of you guys are looking for. TA.com is one of the main reasons I get all my cross-platforms on the 360, since I know I'll be able to set up a gaming session with ease. It's also great at tracking your achievements and telling you the relative difficulty of any achievement if you're into that.

And with that, I'll stop shilling.

Oh, and I picked up Dust and Deadlight since the Target sale has left me with zero restraint. Hell, I paid full price for ME3 Omega today. For shame.

The full season on PC is $10 at GameFly right now.

I would be surprised if no discount I feel it would be very odd to have one of the days with no sale

DOH! Here i am thinking the game Dust: an elysian tail, was From Dust. Two different games. I wanted to get from dust. Oh well.

Since borderlands GoD is 19.99 do you think it will be on sale for 10 bucks?

So far I've picked up Bully, Fez, and Dust. That's probably all I'll be getting.

Might wait on Dust for a potential Steam release, but it's tempting.
