[quote name='Surreal_Sunshine']Update when you're ready and don't let anyone give you any guff about it![/QUOTE]

No guff yet, just don't want to see anyone freak out (and sneak in some time with AC:R).
 
[quote name='reddjoey']As an FYI, I'm holding up for a scan from Spylon and any more announcements before I update the OP. Around 5pm EST, I guess.[/QUOTE]

reddjoey,

The scan is complete. I think my scanner was offline from 12:00 AM to 8:00AM Pacific today. It will scan more through out the day but I think it has caught the major drops. The 2K sale is huge because it includes a ton of Avatar items. Use the filters or next link at the bottom to see it all.

I'll post some summaries on my site tonight.

I'm so jealous that you have AC:R! I wouldn't be able to stop playing long enough to update the OP.

Has anyone gotten any MS points from bing in the last 24 hours? When I redeem my bing points I normally get the MS points code the same day. It's been a day and a half and so far no emails for me. I am hoping the delay is just due to the avalanche of requests for those 100 point codes.

I haven't received mine yet. I really don't want to contact support for this either. The waiting continues. :???:
 
I don't believe that anyone has received their bing points yet. I haven't seen anyone mention it in the free stuff forum thread or on twitter.

I havent seen 400 point codes on the bing site the last couple of days either. :cry:
 
[quote name='RiPPn']Is there any way to get games on demand to use points rather than monetary value?[/QUOTE]

Can't you just press Y to convert it to points?
 
[quote name='RiPPn']Is there any way to get games on demand to use points rather than monetary value?[/QUOTE]

*May vary outside of US

On the xbox.com "Confirm Purchase" screen, under the price should be 2 links:

Change Payment Options
Use Microsoft Points

Or if purchasing via the Xbox Marketplace website, there's a tab onscreen to switch to points.
 
[quote name='reddjoey']Started to update the OP. Once everything is solid, I will add links.[/QUOTE]
Props to you for getting this together so quickly, while the press is still lagging behind! ;)
 
[quote name='Cornelius']Props to you for getting this together so quickly, while the press is still lagging behind! ;)[/QUOTE]

They have actual news/editorials/blogs to post. Spylon's site has made it so much easier.
 
Think I will pass on everything. I'm hoping for games I actually care about during the fan appreciation, black friday, or cyber monday sales. Not to mention the christmas deals coming up.
 
[quote name='Stephan123']Hey Reddjoey

The Crazy Street Racing deal is on now(Nov 15 – 21) and not next week. Thanks for updating the op so quick :)[/QUOTE]

Ok, must have mixed the dates. Will fix shortly.


EDIT:

I'm going to wait as those haven't shown up on the DotW page. I changed the date b/c I think MN got his dates wrong.

Once it took like a week to get mine even though usually i get it within a day or so
 
Not a big deal, but figured I'd point it out. The Mafia 2 DLC isn't available in a special edition of the game, but in the Greatest/Platinum Hits version. Just in case anyone is confused about that.

Sid Meier's Pirates! is 600, seriously thinking about picking it up cause I love that game, but I already have it on iOS, and Steam.
 
[quote name='Rollobobo']Hmmm...can't pul the trigger on PB Winterbottom.....just seems kinda meh. Anyone got any insight on it?[/QUOTE]

PB is amazing... in my top ten favorite arcade games. Can be difficult at times, as some stages require a lot of thought, but this adds to the challenge. Highly recommended.



Also, on a side note, does MN's post mean that there will be no arcade game releases either this week or next?
 
Damn the way you guys were posting I thought Streets of Rage and Crazy Taxi were discounted today. Too many sales next week. Is Uno, Fable 3, etc... really the fan apperication sale?

They were listed as on sale today by MajorNelson, but that has been fixed. We are still working on how the other stuff works out.

yeah thats fine. Thanks joey for all the hard work on this and the other threads. Microsoft is going hard to push out all these arcade games because if you havent heard the new xbox system is set to be shown and possibly released next year. Shown for sure, but not to sure on the release date just yet.
 
[quote name='EarthBoundX5']Ya, I came to say the same thing. It's on the Dreamcast Collection.[/QUOTE]

Which can be picked up for ~$10 on Amazon every now and then. I scored it for $9something a few weeks ago. Definitely the way to go to score these games cheapest. Crazy Taxi and Space Channel 5+2 other games that I really couldn't care less about (Sonic Adventure and Sega Bass Fishing).
 
I'm tempted to get Ms Splosion Man. It's a good game, but I need to horde points just in case. I'm really hoping for some rock bottom prices for BF. :)
 
Wished these DLC sales would apply for the PC version. Would love to get Mravana's Den for 5 on the PC, but it's still 10.
 
[quote name='Rollobobo']Hmmm...can't pul the trigger on PB Winterbottom.....just seems kinda meh. Anyone got any insight on it?[/QUOTE]

Definitely get it. It really is a great puzzle game and I really enjoyed the graphical style.
 
The only other bioshock 2 dlc for single player is the protector trials. I got them in januray. If you hated doing it in story mode, then dont bother buying it. For 200 MSP its a pretty good dlc to kill time with.
 
[quote name='ddog510']Are any of the bioshock 2 dlcs single player expansions except mirvanas den?[/QUOTE]

Check the "Wht's in the DLC" post of the OP. Lots of good info there, that I move up when I remember. I haven't gotten that far down the thread yet.
 
I loved it all the way through. Great art direction and music. Will make you think and the challenges are a good test of your skills. Bought it full price, didn't regret it.

[quote name='Rollobobo']Hmmm...can't pul the trigger on PB Winterbottom.....just seems kinda meh. Anyone got any insight on it?[/QUOTE]
 
How were Live's Black Friday sales last year? Is it worth saving up points for? I feel like spending some this week on a few of the deals but don't want to run out of points for BF if something great pops up.
