This thread will maintain a list of all current and upcoming sales and markdowns on the Xbox Live Marketplace / Xbox Games Store for the USA.  YMMV in other regions.  If non-US sales are listed, they will be marked with their applicable region(s).
 
Please note:

  • You cannot currently buy any Xbox 360 content on xbox.com using your account balance, you can only use an active credit card or PayPal. To use your balance, you must make purchases on your console.  Unfortunately, even "purchasing" free content through the web site like trials requires an alternative method of payment tied to your account, though adding an empty MasterCard / Visa gift card that is registered for online purchases will work.  Xbox One games can be purchased on the web site with your account balance, but DLC cannot.
  • Some sales are intended for Gold subscribers only, as noted within each section.  This requires being a paid subscriber or within a console-activated "1 month complimentary Gold trial" account.  Neither 48 hour trials, 14 day trials nor free weekends qualify.
  • All known sales and information on sales should make their way into the OP. Major Nelson usually updates his blog with new sales information every other Tuesday.
  • ALL OFFERS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE! No information within this thread can or should be construed as accurate (or still valid), therefore ...
  • Always verify Xbox Live Marketplace prices before your purchase!
  • Spend wisely, have fun, and enjoy!

Is Crimson Dragon worth the $15? I was looking forward to this game but the reviews when it came out weren't too hot. Now that it's on sale I might bite. Feel free to chime in If you have played it. 

EDIT: It looks like there was a huge 4 GB patch on this game yesterday that fixed/added features like multiplayer. If anyone has played it before and after the patch to see if some of the free flight gameplay bugs have been squashed let me know.

I played a little bit of Crimson Dragon around Christmas time at the Microsoft store and despite its issues I still want it. However, $15 still feels like a steep price for it. I think I'm going to pass on it until its $10 or less. Right now is vote with your wallets time and we need to tell Microsoft that $20 games is absurdly too high and even at $15 they are too high. I read an article on IGN that said Microsoft it considering changing their digital gaming pricing to be more competitive so I'm hoping that these digital only games see better pricing in the nearer future than I would have otherwise expected to see. I mean, for $20 I can get a grip of decent to good (or better) games on Steam, why would I shell out that kind of cash for one game unless it was truly epic? None of the launch titles should have been priced above $15 to begin with. Period.

I'm almost assuredly going to bite on any ME3 DLCs I'm missing. I still haven't gone back and played that big one they released a while ago so I suppose I should pick these up and get to it. Man I love Mass Effect. Just wish the sequels were as good as the first one.

I can get behind that. Though I will support Twisted Pixel if LocoCycle is up next week.

Its worth the price. ME1 is still my favorite of the series.

I'm watching RAW on my Xbox, so maybe someone else can answer this. What ME games are On-Demand?
Click to expand...
Yea, I think I probably will buy a physical copy. I would've loved a digital version, but oh well. And the worst thing is, ME 2 is around $8 and I need to rebuy that if I buy ME1

As for your question, it's just Mass Effect 1.

Wait around for it to go on sale, unless you're just dying to play it. If that's the case, I'd say just buy it and get you some of that sweet Mass Effect goodness.

Ok, cool. Thanks for the input. Mainly the complaints I've heard are the "free range" flying mode and I was hoping that the 4 GB patch fixed that.

No, because we don't care enough to look. If it's a female posting that's great. If it's not, that's great too. We don't really care and it's a little disturbing that you do so much. Take it elsewhere.

What? I dropped it long ago. I find it a little disturbing that you choose to carry on.

Did I even say anything wrong or offensive? I think not. Go re-read what I said people, because you're blowing it way out of proportion.

OH THE HUMANITY!!!

choo choo

Now that everyones guess of "Kingdoms of Amalur" being the free GwG next month is shot, anyone want to take a stab at it? We should start a lottery for that. $1 ante up.

My guess is Red Dead Redemption, its been on sale enough it would be an easy one to toss out and still make many people happy (yeah right internetz).

I agree people going crazy over leda is pretty insane. She's no melonie mac.

 
Got Phantom Breaker and Final Exam.  Both games turn out to be a lot of fun but I wouldn't recommend it to anybody that's a button masher.  Both games have a lot of depth if you're willing to invest some time.

 
Alright, fudge it! With all this creep talk going on I'm just gonna go ahead and join in and ask.

Who the fudge is this Indignate? Is it really a girl? Is it actually Leda!? Am I just missing out on some inside joke?

I always assumed it was a guy with a Leda obsession, but now for some strange reason you guys have got me wondering..

So does anybody know? Will anybody ever know? Or will this go down as one of the biggest unsolved mysteries of all time!? No, no it will not! Because I will not rest until I have an answer! You hear that Indignate?! I will find out who you are! I will! INDIGNATE!!!!!!!!!!!!

ps. Yay, Shank 2 is on sale.

I actually thought ME3 was as good as the first one if you can ignore the ending. Also, ME3 has the best game mechanics of all of them. But I do still rate ME1 as the best of the three because of the story.

Fallout 3. Old, popular, and heavy on the dlc to get us to buy.

 
night driver said:
Is the ME3 Citadel DLC any good in terms of the actual gameplay found in its "campaign"? Is it on the level of Overlord and Lair in that regard? And how long is it?

I'm not interested in the big "party", or squad get-together, or whatever it is. I don't care about that aspect of the DLC, and I plan to skip through it all.

I would just like to know if Citadel is worth buying if all that interests me is the quality of its "campaign".

TIA
Click to expand...
Man, this is a hard one to answer. What exactly are you looking for in the campaign? Combat, story, atmosphere? Because it does have very good combat (especially the final boss) and is a decent length. Bioware had a year's worth of multiplayer and a couple of other DLC's to observe and, accordingly, refine that aspect of the gameplay. But there are also parts of the campaign that involve just walking around talking to people and a few quasi-stealth moments. There is also the Armax Arsenal Arena that you can go back to and play after the main campaign is over (which even has its own little mini-storyline) if combat is your thing.

As for the story and atmosphere of the campaign, the whole thing is very campy and silly, almost to the point of self-parody. It has a lot of self-referential humor and may seem a little out of place amongst the main game, but it is very fun. And, like I said, it has a good length. I'm not really sure exactly how long, but there are multiple sections to it and it probably took me a few hours to complete (although I never like to rush through, so that may extend the length for me compared to some other people).

In the end though, I'm not sure if I can fully recommend it if you're not at all interested in the squad interactions involved in the DLC. That's really the heart and soul of it. Even the campaign itself is based a lot around that and I'm not sure how much you would enjoy it if you don't love the characters from throughout the series.

Alright, fudge it! With all this creep talk going on I'm just gonna go ahead and join in and ask.

Who the fudge is this Indignate? Is it really a girl? Is it actually Leda!? Am I just missing out on some inside joke?

I always assumed it was a guy with a Leda obsession, but now for some strange reason you guys have got me wondering..

So does anybody know? Will anybody ever know? Or will this go down as one of the biggest unsolved mysteries of all time!? No, no it will not! Because I will not rest until I have an answer! You hear that Indignate?! I will find out who you are! I will! INDIGNATE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait, people play Mass Effect for the gameplay? I Play it like a G.I.Joe public service announcement where Shepard somehow overhears a conflict and immediately interjects himself and resolves it and everyone knows and knowing is half the battle.

Oh, and alien humping.
