I'm actually quite happy with many of these prices. Can see myself spending around $100 or so. Might have to cash in Bing points to lessen the blow
 
Think I'm only getting The Witcher 3 game of the year edition not gonna wait for the rewards punch card because it's most likely spend certain amount of money to get some points 

 
I Enjoy people complaining a sale is terrible because they're only buying a few games, but not a bunch.
You see, some people wait many months on these kind of big sales hoping games they want will be discounted. So when these big sales arrive and they are terrible, yeah, people are going to complain. The point of a sale is to buy things, not to not buy things. I know you're not new here but, are you new here?

May pick up Code Vein and the Contra collection. I’ve been enjoying my time with NFS Heat but I know EA and can see it hitting $20 before too long.

Still want to get Mortal Kombat 11 but probably hold off on it too.

Guess I will pick up Modern Warfare next week for $38 physical since standard edition isn’t on sale at all.

Sales come and go every week and other retailers have sales. We also have Game Pass. For you when Microsoft does their Black Friday sales it's the most important day of your life. But for me, it's a Wednesday.

Between Gamepass and a bunch of games in my backlog I am less and less likely to buy games just because they are on sale.  I would have probably bought Rage 2.  Probably not buying Wolfenstein Youngbloods either for the same reason.   Most of the rest are on GP so figure it will be sooner or later.

Oh, sounds like you have an unhappy life then. I'm sorry.

How do these quests and reward points for buying games on the sale work? Is that still through the Game Pass app or is there another Xbox app I have to install?

Think I'm going to pick up GTAV just for the sake of going digital on it as well as Code Vein and maybe Cuphead? Code Vein seems cheaper than on actual Black Friday at stores from what I can gather and it looks really interesting so I'll probably give that a go. Cuphead is another one I've wanted to pick up but hasn't really gone much cheaper.

Gonna wait on RE2, Sekiro and a few others that seem like they'll be cheaper on Black Friday if I buy physical copies
 
Sale seems okay. It's just between game pass and owning some games and they keep putting the same lot on sale.

Id pick up Divinity 2 if it was $10 less.
 
Maybe related to this new dash or not, but is anyone getting the following error when trying to start a game?

Xbox said:
Check Back in a while

Service outages happen once in a while. Sit tight! We're aware of the outage, and we're working to restore services.
 
38.99 for Control, meh.
Code Vein base game is on sale, as is the Deluxe version that was part of the Flash Sale. The only Black Friday ad I saw with it was $40 at Best Buy(?).

Code Vein - $35.99

Deluxe Edition - $55.99

I missed these because it looks like it's the first time they're on sale and I didn't have the store IDs in my tracked list. So there might be other first time sale items I haven't picked up on.

Bloomy, I was just thinking it would be awesome if you stored price history when your script ran and then highlighted any new lows in the post.
I considered doing that back when I wrote the first iteration of my script. But StoreParser had started around that time, and since that had historical data, I didn't bother trying to retain a record of things. Not sure if the xbldeals site mentioned earlier tracks historical data. I don't think TrueAchievements does. I can try to come up with something, but its history would start with when it rolled out, unless I could get my hands on older data (and I don't think I'd want to root through old thread posts to find past prices).

 
The sale is meh because it's the same games going on sale for mostly the same prices. Sure, there's some nice deals and new lows for a few games, but I swear I've seen this same list of games on sale 5 times already this year.
 
Now I'm interested in 4 games that are on sale: NFS Heat, The Crew 2 Gold, Assassin's Creed Origins and Odyssey. Hopefully I can get an extra 10% off NFS Heat with Access.

I should have mentioned what brand of non-smart HDTVs I have to help with recommendations.

32" 720p HDTV - Haier
24" 1080p HDTV - Insignia (needs base stand)
 
Do we know if there are going to be any daily deals for this sale?

If not I'm looking at Code Vein and maybe Castlevania. The few other games I'm interested in are cheaper at retailers.

 
New quest up in the Xbox rewards app for Destiny 2 - 2,500 points

  • Activate punch card
  • Purchase DLC (a minimum of 1,000 Silver)
  • Earn any Destiny 2 Achievement

Definitely getting resident evil 2. Probably little nightmares as well.

I’ll put another shout out to assassins creed odyssey. Amazing game and worth it even at full price.

Subscription discounts don't stack with sales unfortunately.

Do we know if there are going to be any daily deals for this sale?

If not I'm looking at Code Vein and maybe Castlevania. The few other games I'm interested in are cheaper at retailers.
I'm fairly certain the countdown sale has been the only daily sales in a while. Could be mistaken though. They don't do another big sale for cyber monday, right? Just this one sale?
 
Choosing between Origins and Odyssey, I should just go for my preferred setting? Or is there some other significant difference?

 
New quest up in the Xbox rewards app for Destiny 2 - 2,500 points

  • Activate punch card
  • Purchase DLC (a minimum of 1,000 Silver)
  • Earn any Destiny 2 Achievement
Ugh. I want to do this but also don’t. I already own Shadowkeep deluxe so I don’t need any DLC but maybe some silver to support them (though there’s a lot of angry people right now with how dry this season is becoming in its last weeks... we shall see). Also, the achievement would be ok if they’d actually friggin pop. I finished my Triumph Seal last week and still haven’t gotten the achievement for it. Maybe after I activate the punchcard I’ll be lucky enough for it to pop.

On the sale, I’m considering the Contra collection, since that’s a good price for 10 games (even though some are arcade or duplicates, oh well). I was really hoping River City Girls would be on sale but it seems that, even though Wayforward and MS work well for GamePass titles like Shantae, they don’t do sales together all that often. Kinda weird.

 
The sale is meh because it's the same games going on sale for mostly the same prices. Sure, there's some nice deals and new lows for a few games, but I swear I've seen this same list of games on sale 5 times already this year.
and years before that, there is a core set of games that get rolled out every big sale. I'm still baffled by how Alien Isolation and Evil Within 2 actually about doubled in sale price and have stayed there for about a year now. Decent enough price on RE2make though for $20 since cheapest I've seen physical is $15 and I don't have to leave the house for it.

There is a trick to force your completed achievements to unlock. Get into the game and select your character as normal. Once your are in orbit, go to your settings and there are 2 options in the top left. I forget the exact wording, but one is something like switch character and the other is change profile. Choose change profile. Then just enter back into the game as normal and pick your character again. Around the time you are back in orbit, any completed achievements should unlock. This was also true of Destiny 1.

Mind blown. Thanks for the heads up! Will try tonight (guess I gotta buy that silver after all haha).

 
The sale is great if you haven’t already been buying through these sales for the past couple of years. I’ve pretty much got anything I’ve already wanted. I’ve heard good things about the South Park games and never gave them a shot. I’ll try the demo for the newer one.

They're remarkably solid turn based RPGs. If you like the show and it's history it makes the game go a lot more.
 
Apparently Borderlands 3 is F2P this weekend. Will be nice to try it out, but Borderlands seems like it's only good in coop. Loved playing 1 and 2 with buddies but recently tried playing pre sequel and just found it boring.
 
Wouldn't mind FF8 going on sale even though it will be on Game Pass. Was hoping to see some oddballs in the sale like The 8-bit Adventure Anthology and the Shadowgate remake, but there is plenty here for me to spend space bucks on. In for Contra and probably the ESO upgrade. Ghostbusters for $20 is tempting. May finally give the Middle Earth games a try.

I kind of want to pick up Little Nightmares so I can do a graphical comparison to PS4's Pro patch

I'm already 16 hours into Shenmue III and I'm loving it. I'm still in the first city! For those curious about mini-games, so far I've found: Lucky Hit boards, high roll dice, a 4 item roulette bowl, turtle racing, whack a mole, QTE title, Excite QTE 2, a guided car arcade game, frog racing, pail toss, fishing, toy capsule collecting, two types of training mini-games, wood chopping... And who knows what's in the next city.
