X1 Rewards Weekly Set - Week 20

+10 Pre-order this week's featured game (just click the box, you don't have to pre-order)

+40 Earn 3 achievementsin any X1 game

+50 Complete 50 Bing searches

+2500 20 week bonus

FYI - Operation: Cosmic Rescue goes until 10/31 but this is the last week you can actually start it to be able to complete it. Mission 3 and 7 requires 3 weeks to complete each so if you start this week, you'll still have 3 days in the 3rd week to complete it. 

 
Already have tons of games in my backlog, but I might bite on the Ezio Collection for 10bucks, replaying these great games again without the MP BS they added in..I completed those games to 100% on 360 though hum.

 
Started playing Dead Cells again thanks to the points quests and I remember why I put it down - it's addictive and easy to lose time on "one more run."

Eh, kinda meh on the stuff on sale. Weird that most of the Lego stuff is cheaper on the Playstation side right now. Especially with Lego Harry Potter Collection($20 XB1, $6 PS4) and Lego Ninjago movie($25 XB1, $15 PS4).

Amazon also has Lego the Incredibles game for $18 right now, which is $12 cheaper than the digital version(plus the fact that you can sell it later on).
Harry Potter is likely higher because the X1 version is a newer release. Same way FF12 is usually cheaper on PS4 because it's been out longer.

 
Which Far Cry Gold edition has a previous Far Cry included in the bundle?
Far Cry 5 Gold. Now with New Dawn Deluxe ed. and Farcry 3. For $42 thats not bad at all for 3 games.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/far-cry-5-gold-edition--far-cry--new-dawn-deluxe-edition-bundle/C4D86ZHWZ424?activetab=pivot:regionofcompareeditionstab

Borderlands 3 "Super Deluxe" (includes season pass) is $75 after coupon at checkout:

https://www.amazon.com/Borderlands-3-Super-Deluxe-Xbox-One/dp/B07Q47W1B4/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=borderlands+3+super+deluxe+edition&qid=1571146654&sr=8-2

I had a $10 giftcard and just ordered it for $68 total.
So tempted to do this... but I just added a few games to my backlog and will probably not play this for 4 years.

 
We see the same Xbox 360 games on sale, at this point I'm going to do a sweep of the 360 store and just buy every single Live Arcade game I have even a remote interest in at this point. Stuff like Crazy Mouse, North and South, Raystorm,etc are never going on sale and I've waited damn near 10 years on Raystorm.

If Borderlands 2 is any indication, in 4 years, Borderlands 3 will have a remastered version on the next Xbox with all DLC coming out for much cheaper or you can get the super deluxe version for Xbox One in 4 years for $5.

That being said, you'll get your money's worth regardless of what price point you pay.

 
Anyone have thoughts on LEGO dc super villains?

If you like Lego games, especially the Lego Batman games, this one is for you. You create your character right away instead of using the preexisting characters in the universe, but you (eventually) have full customization over your character, from looks to powers and abilities, etc. Can't say too much about the story (not too far into it), but overall, it's a fun experience.

 
We are only at 16/50 on “CAG XBD”. CheapAssGamers XBox Deals on Gears Pop, feel free to join if you check in on it from time to time. I’m working on 100% those achievements lol.
 
That is the Windows 10 version. I don't believe it's cross-buy.

You can see in the instructions for installation, as well as under System Requirements, it's definitely the PC version.
I would have made the same mistake because of the stupid "Xbox Live" branding right at the top. To me, Xbox and the logo equals console gaming and has nothing to do with PC gaming. I might have made the same mistake.

 
X1 Rewards Weekly Set - Week 20

+10 Pre-order this week's featured game (just click the box, you don't have to pre-order)

+40 Earn 3 achievementsin any X1 game

+50 Complete 50 Bing searches

+2500 20 week bonus
Playing Friday the 13th(which is free with Gold right) is an easy way to get the achievements. Earned the throwing them in the fireplace, swirly in the toilet and killed 13 counselors achievements to get this week's set done quickly.

Also earned the quest rewards, which probably going to hold off on redeeming the Game Pass Ultimate until the end of the month(so I can get the 2nd half of Nov.'s new Game Pass game). Don't see anything about the 2x bing points, probably going to be like the last time and be enabled next month.

We see the same Xbox 360 games on sale, at this point I'm going to do a sweep of the 360 store and just buy every single Live Arcade game I have even a remote interest in at this point. Stuff like Crazy Mouse, North and South, Raystorm,etc are never going on sale and I've waited damn near 10 years on Raystorm.
Yeah, same. It's getting to the point that there's DLC I'm probably going to have to pay full price for, since they're never on sale. Stuff like Arkham Origins season pass, Dead Space 3's true ending dlc, and Tomb Raider Underworld's Lara's Shadow DLC has not been on sale in years.

I’ve been waiting for the ME3 DLC to go on sale but I’ll end up paying full price because it hasn’t been on sale in what feels like 2 years.
 
I would have made the same mistake because of the stupid "Xbox Live" branding right at the top. To me, Xbox and the logo equals console gaming and has nothing to do with PC gaming. I might have made the same mistake.
That is the Windows 10 version. I don't believe it's cross-buy.

You can see in the instructions for installation, as well as under System Requirements, it's definitely the PC version.

Yeah, I will ask for a refund. It should be clearer as Major Nelson post sayed Xbox, now the post is modified and Injustice 2 ISNT on the damn list I clicked to buy it.

 
Anyone have luck with prizes via the GOW rockstar drink contest? I’ve got 14 entries now since my work has been hitting us with vouchers for food to cover expenses during an upgrade so I’ve been going rockstar code crazy and giving away the drinks... daddy needs a raptor!

The asking price is a bit high so I'll wait for a sale (unless a glut of promotional X-bux suddenly becomes available).
 
Has anyone run these games with a controller?  If so, how are they?

Wait until Nov 7 (N7 Day), they usually all go on sale during then, although rarely for lower than 50% off. Worth it to me now that it plays on current gen and will also work on the next-gen system.

Agreed, it's cool that PC games can use XBL services but the fact I had to look at the page for more than 10-15 seconds to be certain it didn't work on an Xbox is not cool.

 
fuck Shadowkeep. Lured me in, bought it up, enjoyed the Moon again, being back, cut scenes hot, story and lore then the stupid stoppage of it all for some shit fest ill conceived grind fest for bounties. Lame, as lame as the new ripped off rocket league season pass content. I spent the money, and enjoy destiny 2, so I’ll spend time in there but fool me twice shame on me on this one. fuck!

Yeah I don't understand how people can keep playing the same activities. I was a day one Destiny 1 player. It was fine at the start because this was all new to me. Never played a grindy game before. Then a month into Destiny 2, I got tired of it all. Doing the same few strikes and same public events just to level up. So mindless. Even when everyone kept saying Forsaken improved D2, when I read up on the new changes, it was all related to grinding so I passed. I'm done with D2. They need to change things up drastically for D3, if there is ever one, to even tempt me.

The ME3 DLC (and a bunch of other EA DLC) was on sale less than a month ago, I bought all of it on Sept 24. It was 70% off.

Tempted on Sine Mora EX, but I think it only got a 4K update on PS4 Pro and PC.
I just looked that up and it’s very tempting.

I don’t know how I missed that. N7 day is close so hopefully I’ll get another chance.

I’ve got some points saved up so I may just get Black Flag’s Season Pass and Sine Mora EX. I keep considering RDR2 but I get a feeling I’ll lose interest in it.
 
I've been having fun with Destiny since the F2P transition. I stopped right when Curse of Osiris came out, so there is a huge amount of new content for be between the two free expansions and first year of seasonal content being free. I think I'm going to buy Foresaken since it's $25, but $35 seems high for the seemingly lower amount of content in Shadowkeep. As far as I can see there isn't an option to buy JUST Shadowkeep, only the $35 that comes with the "bonus" current battle pass season that can otherwise be bought separately for $10 of Silver.

I guess I'll see if I'm interested enough to keep bothering with the seemingly highly priced newest expansion model or not. The grind itself doesn't really bother me as that is what the game is about. D2 at launch had a lot of problems that kind of compounded on each other, but the lack of content was one of the bigger issues, leading to the repetition feeling much worse that it did in D1.

 
Destiny still seems in a weird spot to me. I know it's labeled "Free to Play" now, and technically is. Could they really sell that portion of the game to anyone anymore? Not to mention how confusing they've made exactly what they are selling at this point. People have seemed to sour quickly on this new expansion after being high on it right at launch. It sounds to me, again I'm ignorant, the cost was too much for what was there. The storyline ending right when something good was happening was the complaint I picked up in random podcasts.

This is basically how Destiny's entire life has been. Essentially the only DLC that have really been well received based on their value were the big ones classified as Comet from the leaked Activision contract, those would The Taken King and Forsaken.

I think Bungie just doesn't want (and number of sales-wise doesn't need) to lower the cost of the updates. I think part if it is just how big the studio is now, though it was clearly made worse by their publisher. While the current monetization is a clusterfuck, it's clear to me that a lot of positive changes were made possible by them going independent.

As for them being able to sell the base game anymore, it's not entirely accurate to make this comparison. Not only does the free stuff include those first two expansions, it also includes a lot of bits an pieces from all the DLC up to Forsaken. Crucible is no longer separated into DLC playlists, almost all Strikes are in the Vanguard playlist, all planets are explorable to everyone, and a few other things I'm blanking on. They totally restructured the entire game to the point that it's hard to compare it to the retail version you could by before this.

 
I think the model they went with is good other than they still should have made all the new light players at LEAST go through the main story first to meet all the characters and learn some of the lore... it's really weird that they just throw you into the middle of the game and shout "GO!" like you're supposed to know wtf to do.

 
I'm still waiting on forsaken to hit 10 bucks... probably never gonna happen. Stopped playing right before Osiris hit so I just played that. Guess I'll try Warmind and see if it catches me enough to contemplate further purchases. I don't mind the grind, but there's just so much else in the backlog to play...
 
I think I was like 75% through the main story for vanilla D2 when I fell off after launch.
If I jump back in will I basically be the new light level and be able to pick up where I left off?
 
I think I’m going to pass on the Black Flag season pass after reading all the problems playing Freedom Cry. I wish I had finished it on 360.

What kind of problems?
Freedom Cry not loading or opening. I’ve read threads about it where it people have no problem, to work some have to disconnect from the internet to play it and some can’t ever get it to open. There isn’t a consensus on what the issue is.
 
Halo Wars being first party seems really strange to be leaving gamepass. Hoping it means gwg announcement or a surprise roll into master chief collection.
 
I forget if I got rid of my physical copy of doom or if my brother still has it. Probably will be pretty cheap digitally during the black friday sale. Will have to see when it's actually leaving gamepass, maybe I can speed through it.

Weird, I had no idea about these problems. I played through on both generations versions to 100% with no major problems.

I’m not sure what the issue is and I’ve seen posts mentioning problems from this year back to last gen. I’ll probably roll the dice and get it anyway.

I fully expect the physical copies to get marked down as time goes and will likely get close on clearance. Here's hoping someone wants to clear stock for the holidays.

Smart home people: The Philips Hue White Ambiance Starter Kit may be on clearance at Home Depot near you for ~$78 instead of the MSRP $150. 4 of the color-adjustable white bulbs(soft-white-but-really-yellow 2000k all the way to 6500k) and the Hub. Seems like a good way to get started, I imagine there's interest among you. 1002-633-460 is the sku.

 
I enjoyed the shadow keep story and where it was going but the fact that it stops and is like, hey you need to grind for this full set of armor to continue the story (this is how we make content now dude!) just broke me. That and the rocket league stuff. I’ve put in hundreds and hundreds of hours into this franchise and this is really it for me. So I’m kind of angry and sad. Sorry to rant.

I'm glad you did because I was going to buy shadowkeep to give destiny another chance but nope. I rather not grind shitty content with the 1 hour I get in of gaming a night.

On the other hand. I'm playing Surge 2 and it's probably my current game of the year. So good.
