Is Rare Replay worth $10? I never had an N64, so playing some of those games would be nice. I actually own the physical NES cartridges of those games included.

It's super worth it. The 360 games are pretty good too if you haven't played those yet.

don't take this as an insult but that's a ridiculous question, it was worth $60! it's packed with awesome things.

 

[ResoRai]

Metro bundle for $6. Dope.
Bought that and Rainbow six siege

I bought it at launch. There is so much value packed in Rare Replay it's not even funny. It's like a Video Game Museum.

 

[TriangularDuck]

Picked up Trackmania Turbo, Alan Wake's American Nightmare, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Titanfall 2, and Metro Redux. Probably pick up Recore when it hits unless I can get a copy shipped from Walmart for their store price, since I don't really need that digitally like I did Titanfall.

It's worth more than the original price it was at launch. Go get it.

It really is.

Collecting stamps and completing snapshots made playing the games a lot more fun. I love it.

It is worth every penny of that price and more. At that price, Grabbed by the Ghoulies alone is worth it! Everything in the package is good stuff.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Seconded. Banjo Kazooie alone is also worth $10. And if you haven't tried Nuts & Bolts, give it a chance!

 

[Ushay]

That Metro bundle is fuckin insane value. £4 for 2 top quality games, I'm pulling the trigger on this sumbich!

 

[Effigenius]

My haul:
Batman telltale season 1
Megaman Legacy Collection
Rare Replay
Soul Calubur 2
Soul Calibur 5
Duck Tales

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

Probably been said already but worth mentioning again. Witcher 3 is £12.50 if you have Gold. The GOTY is £17.50! During the recent GOG sale, owned by CD Projekt, the PC version was £21 so £17.50 is by far the best deal yet. With both expansions the game can easily give you 150 hours of gameplay so that price is absolute steal.

 

[Wedzi]

Thinking about picking up XCOM 2 since I have some Xbox cash lying around but I might wait and see if Dark Souls 3 or Infinite Warfare goes on sale over black friday.

Some good sales in their for GOTY editions. Arkham Knight, Shadow of Mordor, Dragon Age Inquisition and Witcher 3 are all pretty great deals.

 

[baconcow]

Nice, Rare Replay for $9.90. Have not played my Xbox 360 in forever, and I do not have an Xbox One, but I have $11.60 in credit that expires out on December 1, 2016, so I might as well use it and have them for when I eventually get the Scorpio. Now, to find a 2-day gold pass in one of my old Xbox 360 games.

 

[Fordy]

Are these games on sale through to 28th?

Looking at it on the XB1 Store they have "3 days remaining", so will we getting new deals after that? Only reason I ask is I was holding off until SONY's sale to compare prices.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

It is worth every penny of that price and more. At that price, Grabbed by the Ghoulies alone is worth it! Everything in the package is good stuff.

If I didn't already own all the 360 games individually, I'd be all over it.

 

[Sanpei]

Rare Replay...Got it...Awesome package

 

[J 0 E]

Should've gotten it when target had it for $20 due to an error.

Paid for it but they canceled it -___-

 

[OnionPowder]

Probably going to pick up Red Dead and Jack Box Party Pack 3

 

[H3rTz DoNuT]

How is Battlefield 1? Was thinking about grabbing BF1/TF2 combo.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

[Lothars]

How is Battlefield 1? Was thinking about grabbing BF1/TF2 combo.

I grabbed the package and it's great. very fun.

 

[Defect]

Never played a Castlevania game before. I love Metroid. How is Symphony of the Night?

 

[dLMN8R]

Two games I'm considering:

Battlefield 1: I know this game's supposed to be amazing, but I'm currently happy enough playing Overwatch and Titanfall 2 online. I'm not sure I need another online shooter right now. And while I've heard the campaign is amazing, I'm better that by the time I truly have a chance to dig into BF1, it'll be discounted further, or maybe even in the EA Access Vault by then.

Symphony of the Night: I know how amazing this game is because I played it years ago. But from the screenshots it looks like it's all severely letterboxed - not just horizontally, I expect that since it's a 4:3 game, but borders on the top and bottom too? That seems really crappy. Is it optional?

 

[The Scrivener]

How does Ducktales run on backwards compatibility??

I completed it recently and it is gorgeous. I encountered a few bugs but they tended to be audio not visual, and probably from the native game. Go for it - great game.

 

[nekkid]

I grabbed the package and it's great. very fun.

Where's the cheapest place to buy? Doesn't appear to be listed on the Singapore store. And US is cheaper than Hong Kong.

 

[baconcow]

I have $1.70 of soon-expiring credit. What to buy? Edit: Will probably wait for the next set of sales and see if I can find anything close and just add the difference.

 

[OnionPowder]

Amazing. Symphony of the Night was the 2nd castlevania game i've ever played.

 

[NuKERxyz]

Titanfall 2 bought (triple dip between pc, ps4 and now xb1).

Waiting for recore now.

 

[danowat]

FFS don't buy Carmageddon, it's awful, one of the worst games I've played in a while!

Check DF Retro's video on SOTN. John covers the 360 port too.

 

[Zushin]

Picked up Hitman, Rare Replay and SotN so far. Think that'll probably do me.

 

[Mik3F]

Grabbed Terraria x2 for my kids and Hitman for me

Will check again when they change the deals

It's the best value games compilation ever released. It was a steal at $30; $10 is an an absolute no-brainer. There are multiple games on there that would be worth $10 by themselves.

Anybody who owns an XBox One should own Rare Replay.

I just bought it in the sale, and I'm going to sell my physical copy.

 

[Theorry]

still no sales on pc games on the Microsoft marketplace. Looks like I'll pick up Rise of the Tomb Raider on Steam.

It probably starts on the 22th. Because now its for Gold members first. And PC doesnt have Xbox Live Gold offcourse.

 

[hiro_x]

Can't decide between witcher 3 or xcom 2. Help?

 

[Messi]

Can't decide between witcher 3 or xcom 2. Help?

Witcher 3 complete edition by a mile. The content to price ratio is insane

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Just playing Overwatch just now. Damn it's good.

One question does the game remain balanced or will I end up playing with people way better than me?

Generally your own skill level with one or two a fair bit above and below. You'll be fine.

 

[Figgles]

Is it worth getting the digital deluxe version of xcom 2 over the vanilla version?

 

[Kill3r7]

Seconded.

 

[Theorry]

Not even a competition. Witcher 3.

 

[im_dany]

• Batman - The Telltale Series - Season Pass (Episodes 2-5)
• Battlefield 1
• Far Cry Primal - Apex Edition
• Forza Motorsport 5
• Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty
• Trials Of The Blood Dragon

Thinking about these, anything I should know? I only picked up Symphony of the Night right now because I own most of the others

 

[jesu]

It is for the 360 games, and Grabbed By The Ghoulies is decent.
The rest are dire though.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Time to load up my 360 backlog with $5 games.

 

[Akai__]

Bought:

Hitman (Complete Season)
Shadows of Mordor
Song of the Deep

Waiting until the 25th now. Lets see what deals they will have. Watch Dogs 2 would make me buy it the same second. If not, no biggie.

 

[Madrugador]

Is Fable II worth it in this day and age?

 

[Kacho]

Is Fable II worth it in this day and age?

Yeah it's good fun. I do remember it running poorly on the 360 though. Wonder if it's better on Xbox One.

 

[danowat]

Is it worth getting the digital deluxe version of xcom 2 over the vanilla version?

I couldn't see anything in the deluxe version to warrant the extra money.

 

[TromboneTony]

Doom 1 and 2 are both right at that price point, dunno if you're interested in that.
