GWG is disappointing. Race the Sun is fine but cheap. First AC was essentially a tech demo. Dante's Inferno is fine but was on sale for Halloween (and got yanked off early) so sucks for anyone who bought it.
This is why I decided months ago to not buy any EA 360 BC games. Still waiting for the Mass Effect series to hit GWG.
 
Well, I don't think you can nor should assume no one will buy BFV just because BF1 is free in November. However, I do agree the timing is off because normally, they would've given BF1 several months ahead or after BFV's release, not 3 weeks before.

Maybe is a last-ditch effort from EA to generate some (positive) buzz for BFV. Although we don't know how far in advance are the GWG titles chosen.
Yeah, I didn't mean no one would buy BFV. I meant the people who were on the fence between getting BF1 for cheap and getting BFV new. Like I have a few friends who have talked about this recently. None of us ever got BF1, but we have seen it on sale a lot recently and have talked about whether we should buy BF1 for cheap or skip it and jump right into BFV. Now we don't have to make that decision. BF1 for free obviously. Lol.

The timing is really weird. They've got to know they're cannibalizing some of the potential BFV market by giving BF1 away for free.

Wow. What a shitty GWG. I mean don’t they realize people who play EA games have EA Access?

That’s half of this month’s games! 😡
 
I have Race the Sun on Steam from a Humble Bundle or something. It's pretty basic, but it is a good game to chill out to I guess. Only minor issue is that it's always dirt cheap on Steam, I want to say like $1 during most sales.

I recently picked up a physical copy of Dante's Inferno that I haven't started yet, so that kind of sucks, but I only paid like $3 so whatever.

I almost pulled the trigger on Battlefield 1 a bunch of times but am glad I didn't. Seems pretty dumb to have it GWG on the release date for the new game, especially with the one really distinguishing Royale mode apparently being 5 months away, but EA doesn't always make smart decisions. 

Assassin's Creed is the first X Enhanced 360 game to be GWG in a while. I'll probably boot it up to see the upgrade but I hear the gameplay in the older games is hard to go back to at this point.

The three "Castlevania" games just about round out Konami's 360 catalog. I think there are some XBLA games missing, and some of the later Silent Hill games that aren't super well regarded.

Much win?
Great success- I've been waiting for Lords of Trilogy to go backwards compatible so I can clean up the missing achievements. The first game was an absolute blast to play through. And Sir Patrick Stewart doing the narrating was even better.

The second game suffered but was still enjoyable, albeit playing very differently

Not really. One of the things going on right now is you can unlock stuff in BFV by doing things in BF1. Obviously some people will stick with BF1, but giving people more incentive to buy BFV because they have "exclusive" unlocks is pretty effective.

 
Haven't seen a sale on Aliens vs Predator in a good while. Hopefully that means it will be backwards compatible soon. Underrated game.
 
Is Lords of Shadow not available for digital download?
I got hyped when I saw the BC post, but it's still disc only. Womp-womp.


Ugh, 5 taco bell boxes down and nothing gained. I think I'm going to chill on the diarrhea for awhile. Ugh, but I'm haunted by the potential of winning something I don't need..

I've had three in two weeks. Boxes, that is; not bouts of diarrhea. Nothing won. Oh, well, I like Taco Bell but rarely eat it, so this makes for a good excuse.

I’ve had no luck with 10 boxes, but I still have the stomach of a 19 year old. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
 
I knew buying the Castlevania LoS set would eventually pay off. I think I bought it like two or three years ago, just waiting for BC.
it's one of the few physical games i kept from xbox 360. i bought it in 2011 or 2012 and haven't played it yet. i love that we get to move these games to our xbox one backlog for free :D

Right?! I'm super excited to continue looking at it on the shelf, wistfully thinking, "One day ..."
 
Excited for Dante's Inferno; really enjoyed that.

BUT I am baffled by BF1. Absolutely baffled. It's an EA game; why GwG? Why not just keep it in EA Access? And why now? People that were on the fence about getting BF1 for cheap or hopping onto BFV will definitely not buy BFV in November now.
Everyone I know who had this game will probably never play it again. I remember it getting old pretty quick.

The only good thing for me here is Dante's Inferno, so many thanks to those who bought this one recently. :)

Pretty good gwg month. I own battlefield 1 and dantes inferno and got 100% in AC but will be nice to have a digital copy.

Battlefield is an interesting addition since the next game is coming out this month. I doubt 1 being free will take sales away from 5 though.
 
Lord of Shadow 1 and 2 is part of the 4 for $20 at Gamestop if anyone wants to pick up before price goes up most likely.
Just ran out and got Lord of Shadow 1 & 2 with Quantum Break and Mafia 3 for $16, great deal to go with the BC announcement. Added bonus the code for Alan Wake that comes with Quantum Break was unused, awesome bonus game.

Also happy to see Dantes Inferno on GWG, had planned on buying that with the 4 for $20 deal too but couldn't find games to pair it wait at the few stores in my area that have it.

I left Battlefield 1 out of my GwG predictions because, despite it also having a countdown that lined up with GwG, I didn't think they'd actually do it.  Particularly after all the times the DLC has been free.

 
Got both Lord of Shadows games at GS as well. Took me forever to find two other games though. They seem to jack up prices of anything decent to be $14.99 that were previously $9.99.
 
Note that the box art is just Battlefield 1, not Revolution. You got one more day to get premium for free.
Thanks just reminded my buddy about that who has neither.

btw is you avatar picture from that animated pearl jam 'evolution' or something from the movie heavy metal...looks familiar...

 
Yes you can, both games are $9.99 on Gamestop.com but I believe the 4 for $20 promotion is in store only.
thats what i was thinking i wouldnt get the 4 for $20 deal but i cant think of any other game to get anyway with the 4 for $20 deal...i would get just cause but that game looks awful lol

 
I got my copy of Lords of Shadow by trading my copy of Batman Arkham City GOTY, which was from one of best buy's best deals at $8 with GCU back then. who here remembers that?
u reek of desperation or notice me.....if u want praise have u mom hug u more often.....the only batman arkham worth while is the duel disc goty copy sold by gs....well praise for saving on an old release give ur self a pat on the back and a participation trophy

I am a lot more excited  about Castlevania LoS going BC than the GWG next month. Another game to take off the 360 HD. As far as GWG, I already own BF 1 but still a good choice and I know nothing about Race the Sun but I do not own it so score. AC is one of the first games I owned and I got 100% on it (all those fucking flags!) so I will never touch that. I played Dantes Inferno on the PS3 and I really liked  it. So much that I am definitely down with playing it again on the One. Good day, Happy Tuesday.

I had Just Cause for the 360 at one time, it's looks so awful it'll make your eyes bleed. It looked like the PS2 version had been ported over to the 360.
