I just resubbed to Gold for a $1 again. That's two months in a row i've been subscribing both to Gold and Gamepass for $1.

$4 for two months of Gold + Gamepass without interruption.

Opinion is to hold off on the DLC. There is a lot of game there. I tired before I made it to DLC which I had bought prior and was excited for

Tempted by Kingdoms of Amalur, but the total cost would be 10 (base game) + 14 (two dlcs)...
24 dollars for a 5 year old previous-gen game...

Worth it?

Turok 2 10 dollars instead of 5?

 
Yeah it must of just flipped over at 8pm EST, same price, well 1 cent higher than the PSN sale. So maybe there are kind of "daily deals" since it had an odd countdown timer.

The DLC was my favorite part of the game so I lean yes

RBI Baseball - Worth the $6 or whatever it is or is it still crap. Reviews are horrible. Really wish Xbox had a decent Baseball game.

Mafia III - Grabbed a physical copy for $6 the other night. But is it worth returning and paying $15 for the Deluxe edition on her with the DLC. Or is the DLC not worth the $9 price difference.

Apparently I already own both of the DLCs for Kingdoms of Amalur..was going to say I won't fork out 14 bucks for that... I knew i bought the digital version of the game at some point but I didn't recall getting the DLC for it...

And I would be glad if they would finally put the Worms 2 DLC on sale again instead of only the game all the time...in fact there is barely any sales on 360 Add ons anymore..(not that there were much in the years before the Xbone, but it's being less and less)

Sales have become more and more underwhelming....I guess I just have so many games already what with Game Pass, Gold, Sales.....

113 Games installed Vs 429 Ready to Install

Had to go with Hitman 2 for $30 though, had $15 in rewards so it was a no-brainer....Season 1 and 2 are easily on par with Blood Money if not better

 
Awesome job as always, Bloomy. Too bad there isn't anything I really want. There will hopefully be something on the 360 side for me to spend the $10 I got from the MS Store email.

 
How's Sleeping Dogs?  I have it on 360 and have a bit of an itch to play it.  But eventhough it's only $4.50 and includes all the DLC, I remember videos showing the Xb1 version kinda looks worse.  Has that been improved with patches or is it still basically the same?

 
That Bioware Bundle is pretty good. DA: I GOTY and Mass Effect: Andromeda for $15. I know ME has some issues but that is a lot of game for $15.

I glanced at a couple of videos/reviews and didn't see evidence of that. I haven't specifically played the X1 version, but Sleeping Dogs is a great game, I highly recommend it.

I don't remember it looking worse, but idk, maybe the same. Only real reason to play it again would be for achievements or if you didn't play the dlc....still a pretty good game with a lot of content for $4.50

I'm not a Dragon Age fan but I can speak on ME:A

It's easily the worst of the series, but still worth playing, just expect a ton of fetch quests.

IMO there wasn't a single party member that was interesting....they were all expendable to me. However the combat was pretty top notch, maybe the best of the series expect for the fact that you have less control of your party during combat

 
Random question. I let my EA Access lapse a bit back finished off most of their vault games and own the ones I still want. Does anyone know if their vault games include the DLC?It sounds like I need to finish off the Dragon Age Inquisition DLC to be ready for the story of 4, not that I don't have years to get that done.

 
Sort of looking at Burnout Paradise Remastered and Edith Finch, but having spent the past few years getting GwG titles that I already own, I'm reluctant.  My new rule of thumb is whether I plan to play the game in the next couple months, and for both of these titles, the answer is "no".

Even more than in the x360 era, these games aren't going anywhere, so I'll hang onto my cash.  Fringe titles, super-cheap titles, DLC, and complete editions are still possibilities, but I don't see anything leaping out at me yet.

 
Bloomy said:
Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 & 2 and PUBG also have the extra Game Pass discount. Maybe whoever set up the sales toggled the wrong thing and they should have an extra 10% off for Gold rather than Game Pass.

10 of 14 weapons have been released so far. It's the 8th day of Gearsmas, and there have been 2 weapons on a couple days.
Click to expand...
I think they've fixed this now. GoW: Ultimate is $5 for Gold, Doom is down to $15, etc.

 
Good number of games on sale and the only ones I'm interested are Injustice 2 and Madden 19. I must say that I've picked some of the games during other sales either physical or digital recently.

 
Wow, Just Cause 4,  20%-25% off - I forgot this game came out already!  Talk about lack of fanfare.

edit to add: a few deals in here if I didn't own them already like:

Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 - Frosty Deluxe Edition - $5.00 - 80% off

Mortal Kombat XL - $5.00 - 75% off

Need for Speed Payback - Deluxe Edition - $12.00 - 80% off (DLC has achievements)

That might be because of how Just Cause 3 was received initially with mixed reviews. Plus the December 4th release date was odd in my opinion. I guess Square Enix did it to avoid JC4 having to battle with the more anticipated games that released from September through November.

I had a free redbox rental, so I used that to unlock an achievement to complete the quest for 500 points. Also wanted to give the game a whirl and yeesh.......the graphics look very shoddy. Like an early X1 game that got ported from the 360. But not in a good way. Even the cutscenes made me cringe & want to skip, but alas. Unskippable. Not surprised the price is dropping this early

Yeah, the cut scenes are really bad. There are 360 games with far better looking cut scenes.

EA Access doesn’t have Dragon Age’s DLC. I ended up buying the game that includes the dlc. It’s a great game.

Cool thanks, yeah I already did the base game way back when, but figure if the $10 for it all I'll bite and do another run through.

 
Will these prices drop lower after Christmas? Lot of these are priced higher than Black Friday last month... would like to get injustice or dragonball fighterz :(
