Complete Edition is still around $40 but normal is in $20 range.
Oh, I thought the OP was asking for deals on Metro: Last Light and the quoted post was saying it's $20 everywhere. The link, though, is for Saint's Row: The Third - I actually did get the complete package (of Saint's Row) via a 3rd Party on Amazon for ~$25. Definitely on the lookout for a deal on Metro, I don't think it's went below $20 and was only about $20 (or $25) on BF.

 
Haha nice! I have a wall the is just shelves full of games myself, with other games being in various places since I ran out of room!
Everytime a new format or console comes out I shudder because it means eventually I either have to redo all my shelving or figure out a way to fit more shelves. Even worse when my collection begins to outgrow my shelves, which seems to be approaching for the 360. Man, damn this site and damn cheap blu rays.

 
[quote name="MidwestCheapAss" post="11401429" timestamp="1388451683"]I saw it, just praying there is something yet to be revealed behind that curtain over there.
Also I can't read Portuguese but that definitely says the 17th. and it's not the 17th. [/quote]

then you read Portugese bro

 
I really do hope the sale is more then just Ghosts :/

Same here, got my Xbox One games appearing now, which for me means my older games usually have to find a new home. I had to move all of my Gamecube games off of my main shelves to prepare.

We'll I'm Portuguese and what that says is something like "Great holiday sales starting December 17" :D
 
I liked Lego Star Wars but got really bored of it when I played the Complete Saga. Too much Lego Star Wars I guess. I liked Lego Batman more than Lego Batman 2 for some reason. I liked Lego Indy. I have but haven't gotten around to playing Harry Potter and LOTR. I prob would still pass on the deal if I didn't have the physical copies. I can wait for the buy two get one free and if I get three $20 games it would be $13.33 per game and Lego games seem to drop down pretty quickly.

 
Any recommendations on the lego games? All I've played is lego marvel.
They're all extremely similar games although they all have their own little twists and of course the newer ones are open world while the older ones aren't. Out of the 3 currently on sale my favorite is Batman 2 followed by LOTR and Star Wars 3 in a distant 3rd.

 
I'm under the impression that the only LEGO games that have online co-op are Star Wars 1 and Indiana Jones 2, am I correct in thinking this?

 
So, it's looking like Lego games for gold only. Already have LOTR and Batman 2. Star Wars III: The Quest for More Money can take a flying leap. Way to troll, MS. My hat is off to you on ending the year with the most weak sauce way possible.

Can I look forward to fitness games next? Cause you know, it's not cliche'd at all to do that around New Year's, when all the fat housewives are looking to dump some extra cash on pointless weight loss things that will gather dust come March.

At least I get Grand Theft Asian for free on Wednesday. Guess not all is lost.

My favourite are the LoTR one, Batman 2 followed by Harry Potter 2.

The first two have voice acting in it and are open world (I can't remember if Harry Potter is open world)

None of the next gen consoles have hit my home just yet so I don't have to do a Sophie's Choice just yet. Though after playing Super Mario 3D World I am leaning toward getting a WiiU next year. In which case my Gamecube games maybe off the show floor as well.

 
Regarding the Lego games, I personally have yet to find much enjoyment in Lego Batman 2 after picking it up in one of the previous sales. I loved Lego Star Wars and Lego Pirates (and have since loved Lego Marvel, Lego LOTR is still in my backlog) so I guess Batman was just the odd one out for me.  Really dont like the hub structure and the missions seem longer than other Lego games.

 
Well MS that's quite a shitty way to end 2013. What did you guys expect? A great GWG announcement AND  good sales to end the year? What silly CAG's you guys are.

Whew, safe again. I like the Lego games except for the Harry Potter ones. Slowly waving a wand isn't the same as hand to hand combat.

Lego Batman sold me on the series. I love how you can unlock characters and explore areas on levels you couldn't previously get to. Not sure about the other games, but in Batman there are unlockable levels as well.

Sure you don't really die in the game, but if you collect all of the Lego pieces and find the special items, it could be quite a challenge. 

 
I really hope Ghosts isn't the only thing on sale😞

Come on Microsoft, this is the chance to end a pretty shitty year on a high note, don't let us down.
 
Even though I was trying to believe in a Best of XBLA as this was 360 last year as main platform, I had low expectations for this last day. When I saw Ghosts, my expectations nose dived but wow, I don't know how this was possible but MS managed to let me down. Good Job!

 
I think it's safe to say the 24th and 25th were the high points of the sale. Was hoping for an outrageous deal like TWD Season 2 pass for $10.
 
I will be picking up Brothers, I am Alive, Deadlight and probably Charlie Murder. Although I've never played the original Ducktales I loved the TV show and I did enjoy the trial, however I can't get around spending 7,5€ in a game that will probably be cheaper by this time or before next year.

 
Damn..was hoping there would be something I wanted on the last day. I'll go ahead and now pick up NCAA 14 and maybe Beautiful Katamari

 
Wow, talk about ending with a whimper.

I'm not complaining though, every arcade game on my wishlist, as well as quite a bit of my wanted DLC, was on sale during this countdown. Spent a total of $109.49.

 
Sorry if this has already been answered and I missed it, but does the Games on Demand version of GTA V still have problems with textures & pop-in? I've got a pile of MS points that I got super cheap and I was thnking of returning my unopened copy from Black Friday, but the stuff I've read about problems has me hesitating.

 
Ghosts on "sale" for the same price I bought it for on release day from Newegg.  Not a very good ending but overall I'm happy with the sale.  The two things I was hoping for pre sale were Brothers and the AC4 season pass so I ended up getting both of my wishes plus one or two others.

Just saw the discounts and remembered that I still have Lego LOTR in the shrinkwrap. I was really excited to play it when it was a new release, and my partner got it for me last Christmas (and almost assuredly paid full price for it).

My backlog problem is serious.
I feel your pain. I have a sealed copy of Dishonored from a year ago, too. Though the worst is Fallout 3 Complete which I bought used in 2009 and have yet to start ... I think it'll be the last game I play on 360.
 
Alright. All in all, not disappointed with this sale at all, but perhaps more so because it's the first one in ages I felt comfortable adding to the backlog now that its gotten down there. In total, I came away with...

UMvC3, Spelunky, Fez, Brothers, Eternal Sonata, Peggle, The Bridge, DuckTales Remastered, The Wolf Among Us (Episode 1 + Season Pass) L4D2 Cold Stream, L4D2 The Sacrifice,  L4D/2 The Passing, Killer Is Dead, RDR Undead Nightmare Pack, Rayman Legends, El Shaddai, and SSX. That's more than satisfactory for my Christmas.

 
I got my Lego game sale that I wanted, but still not picking anything up.  50% off and getting Lego LotR for $9.99 would have been my "buy" price (even though this has been spotted at that price for a disc copy previously).  That's okay.  I'm still debating on the buy 3/get 3 X1 game deal, but I may just save my credit for Strider in February now. 

I feel bad for the folks waiting for the ME3 DLC sale.  It seems like a LOT of people were looking for this.

 
So what was the one thing everyone wanted to go on sale, but didnt?

Mine was ME3 DLC.
my missed game was minecraft. I had most of the games I would have otherwise been
interested in, anybody that recently got a 360 could have made out like a bandit on some of the 75% off games.
 
There used to be a couple of active threads here on CAG for two deals: one free month of Gold, and 2 months for $2. Both deals gave you the full benefits of Gold membership, GwG included.

I think both links here on CAG may be dead, but there's a link on a Fatwallet thread for one free month that's still functioning. I've been using it for a couple of months with no problems. Do a quick Google search and you should see it on the first page of results.
Thanks! I am using that one right now, but there's no indication that I have access to gold games... it still claims that Shoot Many Robots is $9.99. There's also a link labeled "Gold Exclusive Price," which takes you to the join page. So no, I don't think I have access to games.

I may have to break down and just get the month of Live, if it's not too late to get Sleeping Dogs. Maybe I was being *too* cheap-ass of a gamer... :p

 
I was hoping DMC, Devil May Cry HD Collection & Far Cry 3 would go on sale. I know DMC was on sale in Nov. but I also remember that sometimes not often but sometimes games go on sale 2 months in a row. Oh well I at least got bully. Was gonna get Deadpool but decided to hold off on that.
 
Only thing I really wanted to go on sale was ME3: Citadel DLC, Scene It (the XBLA one), Phantom Breaker, Half Minute Hero and Dance Central 3 GoD because I play that game enough that I rather have it on my hard drive so I can play it whenever.

 
Im okay with the end of the sale being lame, I was all out of spacebucks. Final loot: nba 2k14, brothers, fight night, twau pass, ncaa 14, nba jam, blitz, nhl arcade, doodle jump, freefall, fruit ninja, and a few more I can't remember

Edit: The bridge, flashback, deadlight, bioshock infinite, and mini ninjas were some of them I forgot. Long story short. I got a crapton of games for very few spacebucks. Im very excited about that. Oh yeah and ssx

I was hoping for a Platinum Games sale.  I would've liked to pick up cheap GoD copies of Bayonetta and Vanquish.  But I think I was most interested in a sale on Devil May Cry HD Collection.

Oh well, at least we're getting some quality Games With Gold titles next month.
