[quote name='TKtheknight']Best purchase from this Holiday Sale. Got Episodes 3-5 for 600 points total since I bought the first two episodes earlier this year. I'm happy now and my only disappointment so far is that Bully: Scholarship Edition isn't downloading. I bought it on Christmas Day and it always keep saying can't download over and over. Hopefully Microsoft fixes this.[/QUOTE]

I did the thing where you start the download and then turn off the system and it downloaded while it was off.
 
[quote name='jdawgg76']It's ten bucks for a $25 game that lots of major reviewers are naming GOTY. $10 is the cheapest ANYONE has sold it, the lowest on Steam has been $12.50.[/QUOTE]
It was $10 at GameFly for a couple of days earlier this week. Your post still holds, though.
 
[quote name='A Happy Panda']Man...first world problems, spent Bing Reward points on 400 MS points...haven't received e-mail confirmation yet, Walking Dead sale ends in 90 minutes =/[/QUOTE]

Walking dead deal should be live for another 24 hours...
 
[quote name='Bigmeat23']Walking dead deal should be live for another 24 hours...[/QUOTE]

Ah, you are right, I thought I read that the sale started on 12/27, well then, I guess I'm getting all the episodes.
 
Glad the the $10 price point for TWD we were hoping for came through. I've only played the first 2 episodes when they were free on PS+ but EVERYONE should buy this for this price.
 
Got all the Walking Dead episodes. Sold my still unopened 360 physical copy I got for $29.99 from Amazon when they had it for enough to make the downloadable copy of the game essentially $5. :)

Woo, don't spend that $5 saved all in one place!

Damn I missed out on borderlands pass argg. Where can I get ms points for cheap?

Edit: wait I can still get the season pass?

So that's 2600 points I need for season pass and 4 walking dead...

Correct! But you better hurry because the BL2 SP will go back up any minute
 
Bought Super Meat Boy and gonna get Walking Dead set, 1400 points well spent. Had pc version of SMB and played the first Walking Dead so glad i waited for the rest.
 
Man, debating if I wanna get WD. I want a physical copy but was going to wait for it to get cheaper. Maybe both? Heh....
 
[quote name='breakingcustoms']glad i never opened my retail copy of the walking dead...saved $20[/QUOTE]

And the headaches that come with all of the glitches. Take a look at the Telltale forums if you don't know about 'em already - and even the digital version has save glitches. I just lost all of my progress when trying to load my save from Episode 3.
 
Gonna get Walking Dead and keep my CE sealed for now. I figure if it really is going to be that hard to find(and it seems it will), then it'll be worth keeping closed up for now.
 
[quote name='shieryda']Xbox.com down?[/QUOTE]
I'm having a lot of problems. I can't add points through the console or through their website. wtf is going on? Are they really getting that much traffic from this sale?
 
[quote name='Tonious']I'm having a lot of problems. I can't add points through the console or through their website. wtf is going on? Are they really getting that much traffic from this sale?[/QUOTE]

Possibly. It took a good 30 mins to d/l ep 2 for me last night. Hope it's still not down when I get home from work to d/l the rest of the eps.
 
They are really going to get their money's worth out of the free episode 1, because I was on the fence until I played it. Now I bought all the remaining episodes because it's so awesome. I've never watched Walking Dead or played a TellTale game before, needless to say I'm a fan of both now.

I've kept this date bookmarked so that I could take advantage of this sale, thanks OP and everybody who maintains this thing.
 
I'm debating getting the Skyrim DLC now. I have a pretty decent backlog now and I don't know when I'll even get to starting that game. Maybe if its cheap enough.
 
[quote name='sixspeednissan']Wow 200 ms points for crazy taxi. I may have to get it now.[/QUOTE]

Nice find. I hope this is not as buggy as the IOS version. Thanks
 
The Splatters and Crazy Taxi both have my attention at 200 points, gonna have to demo Splatters but will probably just buy Taxi.
 
[quote name='Blumpkin']Pulled the trigger on WD. I just finished the first free episode and can't say I'm not excited to play the rest of the game.[/QUOTE]

Damn yous and your double negatives!! haha
 
[quote name='FlamedLiquid']Is splatters worth a blind buy?[/QUOTE]
For 200 MSP? Most certainly. I bought it at 400 MSP when it was first on sale and was not disappointed.

They're gonna make a shit ton off this sale. So many impulse buys and convinced purchases because of this.
 
Crash of the titans is a collectible game. I sold my Xbox copy for $35 a while ago on ebay. The game is ok but 800 points is too much for me.

not much of a collectable if you have it in digital format. :p

if no one has played it before or cant find it to buy/rent its worth 800 imo. I rented it years ago though and it has little to no replay value once you beat it so I'm passing on it.
 
I'm still debating Crash of the Titans. I downloaded the demo, just need to check it out. No way I'd ever shill out for a retail version now.
 
[quote name='aaronrodgers']Crazy Taxi only worth it if you have the original soundtrack with The Offspring on your 360. ;)[/QUOTE]

Wait a minute... no Offspring? I did not know this.

I wanted this for nostalgia, but if I can't start my runs with a "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" I'm not biting.
 
[quote name='Jogan']Anyone have any clue as to how much the Skyrim DLC could be going for?[/QUOTE]

Based on the last sale I expect Dawnguard for 1200 and Hearthfire for 280.
 
[quote name='Jogan']Anyone have any clue as to how much the Skyrim DLC could be going for?[/QUOTE]

Expect $5 off Dawnguard & $1.50-2.50 off Hearthfire just like the Gold only sale a couple of months back.
 
Sales for the 30th are live:

Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown - 600 pts (50% off)
Street Fighter III: Online Edition - 600 pts (50% off)
Dungeon Fighter LIVE: Fall Of Hendon Myre - 400 pts (50% off)
 
i am looking forward to the 1-day countdown sale ending so i won't have to check 2 threads for updates on the same content. it feels like a lot of the info here is being shared with the XBL deal of the week thread and if i don't keep checking both, i am going to miss out on something.

not a big deal, just curious if anyone else feels the same. and i have been spending A TON of points lately (and have yet to play most of what i bought). another reason i am glad the sale is almost over.
