[quote name='Wildcat1080']Other dude is wrong; yes, those songs will work in Blitz and vice versa.[/QUOTE]

Other dude is right - Rock Band 3 songs do not work in Blitz, as there was never an import code/download for RB3's songs (at least not yet, unless they've come out with it in the week or two since I last played Blitz).

Just curious, where did you get your info? You seem quite sure of yourself.

[quote name='shadowrage']This dude is right.[/QUOTE]

I think this is the reason for the confusion:
Rock Band 3 songs that came on the Rock Band 3 DISC *cannot* be played in Rock Band Blitz. Apparently they plan(ned) on releasing a code to do this but have not yet (source).

Rock Band 3 DOWNLOADED songs CAN be played in Rock Band Blitz.

Rock Band Blitz "built-in songs" (the ones that come in the original download and that come in the free download when you get the game) CAN be played in Rock Band 3.

Any song you buy on the Rock Band music store from here on out can be played in either game.
 
Are the MW3 Collection packs worth it? Got some points to spend, just got MW3 recently and playing online. Worth a buy yes/no? Next day coming soon already D:

[quote name='USD']Do you guys think sonic generations will go on sale?[/QUOTE]

It's $15.99 on Newegg right now with free shipping in case you're interested. If you're a patient man you could probably get it for a dollar less brand new on eBay. I got my copy early this year when Newegg had it for $19.99... I didn't like it that much, it's like the game is on autopilot. You only need to hold forward and push A every now and then. Now that I think of it, I'd probably be better off with a digital copy because then I might finish it. I can't take more than 30 minutes of it at a time before I'm ready to play something else and I don't want to deal with all that disc swapping.
 
I can't believe the Lego games take up so much space. Was thinking about Harry Potter but I don't want to use 6.3 GB on my launch 20GB hard drive. :D Anyway, picked up Joe Danger 2 for now.
 
it was half off the black friday sale they had at the end of last month

[quote name='eulogywerd21']Should I give up hope on a discounted Spelunky? I didn't see it on the list, though, there are still some TBA next to dates.[/QUOTE]

Stick it on a flash drive? 16 gb usb sticks are like under $10.

Shouldve gotten it on Black Friday for 9.99 from Micro Store. It's probably super cheap now anyway though.
 
[quote name='ninjastyle']Any info on Dec 22 and 26 discounts?[/QUOTE]
The 22nd is rumored to be tony hawk HD, and the 26th CS:GO. Those are just rumors at this point though.
 
[quote name='D0RC']The prices are good through out the sales right? Or just for that day? I want to line up the deals before choosing.[/QUOTE]

The countdown ones are for the specific day, maybe into the morning the next day but I wouldn't wait that long if interested in the deal.

Thanks for the info! :)
 
I wonder if Banjo Kazooie is going to have any DLC sale. I just won that game brand new with Viva Pinata on eBay for $15 total.
 
[quote name='Ray5555']is rockband 3 worth it? right now I have only a controller and won't have a instrument until feb. earliest.[/QUOTE]It is my favorite party game experience of all time and at worst is a pretty great karaoke game with a huge library of $1 songs right now. Easily worth getting for $10.
 
[quote name='vantheman']The 22nd is rumored to be tony hawk HD, and the 26th CS:GO. Those are just rumors at this point though.[/QUOTE]

Given the source for those rumors was right about Bully and Rock Band 3 being on sale, I'm guessing he was right about TH and CS:GO as well. I just wonder if anything else will be on sale during those days.
 
Whats the source for the Borderlands info? Looking for any BL1 DLC...have the original and the GotY is still $30 so my holdout for cheaper DLC is still going strong.
 
[quote name='MSUHitman']So is RAW worth it for $5 if I'm forever alone and have no one to play local co-op with? Love all the hack and slash games on PS2 and have DS 3 and Torchlight on XBox.[/QUOTE]

Still looking on a recommendation on this. I'm much more interested in the upcoming Blood Knights given its vampire story, but it will be $15 and who knows when it will be on sale vs. RAW being $5 now.

Well I can't recommend it since I don't have it, but for 5 bucks I am definitely picking it up and I don't have anyone to play it with either.

The biggest criticisms of the game are the lack of online coop and that it's too old school, but I can deal with no online coop for 5 bucks and old school is a plus for me! :D

[quote name='bjstucker']in for Fez and Mark of the Ninja[/QUOTE]
Here's to hoping Mark of the Ninja is 600 MS points. I may never buy FEZ due to that game-breaking bug. I'll wait for it to come out on PC. It seemed like Phil Fish was jonesing for his contract with Microsoft to run out just to put it on another platform.

Mark of the Ninja is 600 and live now

Fez and Trine 2 are also live
 
At 600 I am getting Mark of the Ninja. Even though Stealth games frustrate me at times it seems this game is pretty accessible.

400 for Fez is tempting but I vowed to not give Phil Fish any of my money. Is it time to let it go?
 
I did a manual search, these are the prices that came up... live already?

Fez - 400 pts (50% off)
HELL YEAH! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit - 600pts
Sonic Adventure 2 - 400pts
Rayman Origins - 800 pts (50% off)
Rayman 3 HD - 400pts
Mark of the Ninja - 600 pts (50% off)
Trine 2 - 400 pts (50% off)
 
So the whole mess about the Fez patch, was that just due to the patch possibly corrupting pre-patch save files? Or are there still other problems that would affect people that were buying the game today?

That's why I'm not going to buy it ;)

And looks like I'll get Mark of the Ninja. How is Rayman 3? I'm tempted to get it, but I already passed on it once.
