I really, really, really preferred the real-time shooting mechanics in NV, and I can't even put my finger on why. In FO3, I'd use real-time 'when I had to', but in NV it felt like a valid part of the game.

Another advantage of NV is that FO3 simply wasn't funny. ;)

They intentionally improved the shooting mechanic of FO:NV over FO3. So yeah, there is a bit of a noticeable difference to say the least.

And "tonight's" deal will be the decider on if I get the FO:NV DLC or not. C'MON...uh...something!
 
OK

It would be perfect timing and I hope you are right, I have been waiting for that one patiently.

Disappointing. I already have PvZ and Zuma. I picked up Bejeweled 2 on Black Friday. Is Bejeweled 3 significantly better?

Waaaait a sec. Bookworm is not even out on XBL. And PvZ is part of the countdown sale. Something aint right.

All of those appear to be for the PC, so hopefully there are additional 360 deals as well.

Those are all Games for Windows it seems because no goddamn way should anyone pay that much for Bejeweled and Plants vs Zombies is already on sale.

Ugh, I've been waiting for a deal on Bastion and a deal on all of the Fallout New Vegas DLC but I can't download anything because some jerkoff hacked my account and bought a ton of FIFA packs.

I hate soccer so much right now.

Thursday is the end/start of the Games for Windows Deal of the Week. Those were found early this morning.

What is "Chrono Gear's search page"?

I knew it!!! I have a Doppelganger on the internet somewhere!!! :cool:

Though I think that is the first time it's been attributed to someone else and called a search.

Maybe I was a bit rough on him. No offense intended but I do need to keep an eye out for other sites. ;)

If only I could work on it full time, I got so may ideas just not enough time to do them all.

Doh. Scooped because I was busy posting. Huge pass for me. I am still OK with the sale so far since there has been something that has never been on sale everyday.
 
[quote name='Bradisback']Is the new deadliest any better than the first? I got the first cheap but I never play it because I didn't like it.[/QUOTE]

Nope, pretty much exactly the same.

Oh well I will save my points. I did score a free xbla game today burger time world tour on Facebook thanks to CAG. Monkeypawgames is giving games away like crazy over there until Xmas.

Legends has not been on sale before. The first was for ~200 if I remember correctly.

You do remember correctly. And like almost everyone else here, this is an easy pass for me. Maybe they'll add something else like they did with Lonesome Road last night...but I'm not holding my breath.

As always, thanks Spylon for the site.
 
[quote name='tylerh1701']I'm bored, browsing the Xbox site, and realized I'd also love to see MLB Bobblehead Pros go on sale soon! :)[/QUOTE]

Better hope all the mode/dlc goes on sale too
 
I'm so stumped on the NV DLC. I have NV unopened and not even sure when or if ever I'd get to it. Having some DLC would make me more likely to play it but I'd hate to spend money on one or two then not... hmm
 
Today's deal positions me into making a decision. I tend to wait for GotY/complete/director's/ultimate/gold/platinum editions which contain some/all the DLC (and then further waiting on that to go on sale). Off the top of my head, that method worked with Fallout 3, Oblivion, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Halo Wars, ODST (for 3), Forza 3, Fable 2, and Borderlands for me. However, my patience has thus far failed me when games like Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age 2, and today's Fallout: New Vegas. I still hold on to hope EA releases a Mass Effect 2&3 Complete somewhere down the line, yet at this point, I sense that type of release could be unlikely. So, I sympathize with those occasional posts wishing for all the DLC for a game to be on sale again because I may make the same mistake now by passing up the DLC on sale for New Vegas. Unless you guys suggest it may be better to jump on now, I still have the patience and the backlog (over 90% of the titles I named in this post are on that backlog) to hope for some complete edition of new Vegas.

As for yesterday's deal, I had originally thought "glad they got the Kinect out of their system for the daily deals," but then I realize there are still Kinect XBLA titles and DLC. While the Kinect deals may appeal to those who have the peripheral, the Kinect doesn't fit my 360's setup (home arrangement). I would prefer if the daily deals minimize the Kinect ownership required deals.

I await the deal offered tomorrow. While I have spent way too much on disc games due to Best Buy, Amazon, Newegg, and Walmart having their hands in my pocket. I did purchase a near rediculous amount of Microsoft points (thanks to Buy.com's eBay pricing) in preparation for these daily sales.

Oh wait, Deadliest Warrior ... I've survived you predessor and I will survibe you. My MS points stay still =(

Hrm im about 90% sure I want to get the old world blues DLC now, having an unopened Fallout NV in my backlog.
Curious though, I have a small 20GB hard drive, I know you are able to delete and redownload arcade games as you please. Are you able to do the same with DLC? Id like to download it, play through it, and delete it off

New Vegas complete edition is coming in February
http://www.1up.com/news/fallout-new-vegas-ultimate-edition-bundles-game-dlc

Honestly, I'd just wait and jump on that. Big Fallout fan that I am, I was impatient and bought the first two DLCs (on sale mind) and haven't even touched them. That was before I knew about the complete edition, which makes more sense for me to own because then my fiancée has access to the DLC too. So I wasted money there.
If you already own New Vegas then it would be cheaper to just pick up all the DLC now, if not, wait a couple of months for the full edition.

maybe german list was upset with deadliest warriors legend that it didnt include more german legends that it didn't bother to add te game to the list.
 
Regarding tomorrow's deal, well.... I was casually browsing around some Mortal Kombat DLC and noticed that the season pass is down to 600 MS points. Could it be?...

If it be then I will be happy viking
 
I'd be interested in some MK stuff on sale. So far, there hasn't been anything on sale that's caught my interest all season. I have points burning a hole in my virtual pocket.

Nice find! I couldn't give a fuck about Freddy but I'd really like to scoop up the other 3 characters. I think 600 points is a good deal.

This is why I like some of these season passes. Planning on scooping up the Forza 4 one if/when it goes on sale or I'll just buy the ultimate when it eventually comes out.
 
[quote name='pikecon']Regarding tomorrow's deal, well.... I was casually browsing around some Mortal Kombat DLC and noticed that the season pass is down to 600 MS points. Could it be?...[/QUOTE]

Arg, now I have to find my 1600 pt card and buy that. I shelved the game to go back when all the DLC went on sale.
 
I really hope the list is fake... Of course, I don't want Mortal Kombat DLC any more than I wanted SFIII, but at least that means something else might interest me.
