Microsoft store sale XBOX ONE games @ 30$

These sales are getting ridiculous. I've already spent 50 bucks at Gamefly for Forza and NFS and have three games coming from AWD, one of which is ACIV.

They are probably going to dump the Xbox one and come out with their real all digital console come September.

Price cut, a SKU without a Kinect, perhaps even maybe HDD-less?
Who knows but something drastic has to change and I suspect an announcement during or around E3

 
They're probably doing what Sony did...marking games down within months of release to help generate more sales..I already picked up most of these titles during the gonzo Christmas sales.

New games are on the way, kids!

Then the summer drought, hopefully they get their indies in a row for the One or pull off a decent digital service.
 
Not bad. Tempted to finally pick up Black Flag, but I'm not sure. Never actually got around to finishing Assassin's Creed III.
 
Dang, yeah I too am tempted but I think I will pass.

I have only been playing Dark Souls 2, I played Titanfall once and immediately wished I was playing more Dark Souls hahah

While I want to jump on the deal I think I will stick with my current backlog for the moment!

 
Not quite sure why people think this is a bad sign. With so much in the pipeline, you'd think people would be more optimistic that these sales are hitting now, especially with MS stating that they want to improve the digital sales model. Anyone care to elaborate?

 
LOL at how many people in this thread who seem to think that the Microsoft Store having games at $30 that came out 5 months ago is a sign that they are about to go out of business or something.

Anybody know if Best Buy price matches if there is no store in the area?

They actually don't price-match the Microsoft Store, I recently tried when they had GTA 5 for $30...I wish they'd offer this sale on the marketplace, I'd pick up a few of them digitally...

Rofl at the uneducated people who think 5 year old games on sale on a website mean anything negative. If anything, this is incredibly positive.
 
Nice deals.  Just bought one of these for $35 from them but thinking of returning it.  Will they refund me $5 if I ask for it?

Lol. It's hilarious how they view the same thing with two different points of view depending on which company it is. That fanboy mindset man...

anybody on the fence should grab Black Flag and Lego Marvel if you havent played either yet.  Both great games.  I'm actually debating getting Lego Marvel even though I beat the 360 version, but the fact that I just got Infamous and Forza tells me to wait...

 
These games are all last gen ports and have been on sale cheaper...Sony has knack and Killzone around this price before and yet those are their exclusives, lol.

Anyone who thinks the Xbox One is actually going to flop is an idiot. This was their most successful launch to date. I love my ps4, but the X1 gets more playtime from me right now.

Does anyone remember a system that came out 8 years ago called the..what was it? Oh yeah, ps3. That thing had an official price drop within a year, it ended up having its infrastructure hacked and no one wanted the thing when it launched. That thing ended up flopping and never regained a stride!

AC IV was my first AC game and it was pretty amazing.  I actually loved the sailing.  While I didn't collect everything, I think I stopped playing after about 40 hrs and 95% completion (inside the game, not achievements).  I have to fire it up again and see if there's a new community challenge.

I also really liked the single player for Ghosts and Battlefield 4.  I didn't really play much MP for either, as it's not what I prefer; BF4 was my first in that series and I hadn't played too much COD before (mostly just COD 3 co-op with my brother).

Except for Titanfall, that's just fantastic smeared with awesome-sauce.

Don't think this is a sign of a sinking ship - it's a sign of a company wanting more momentum to followup the Titanfall release, which gave the One plenty of positive exposure.

Great for folks new to the system and holdouts like myself, who didn't bite on any earlier games (well, besides Tomb Raider). Still waiting for a deal on Dead Rising 3.

Really wish Amazon would price match, particularly AC IV. I hate Microsoft Store's delivery service. They required a signature on a purchase that was $9.99, and UPS wouldn't leave it at the door. I had to wait over the weekend, and pick the damned thing up on the following Monday.

And in all that, you haven't helped Microsoft one bit by buying used.

lol It's not the first time I've bought any of those games. The only game that I haven't bought new is NFS. I'm rebuying because I played most of the other games after buying them at or around launch and couldn't say no to the beastly TIVs I was getting for them.

 
Way to go, Microsoft. I don't even know if I'm enjoying Ghosts that much on the PS4, but being able to get it for $25 is such a steal! I like the download option, too. How amazing.

Download is $60 for me.

When I went to buy AC4 it gave me an option to digital download.
