[cyberheater]

Yup, was actually going to rebuy it. Was my first 360 game :*) hope they reduce it later today.

Yeah. I'm looking to pick this up. I'm in the UK.

Is there a deals shop front for this in the UK?

 

[oatmeal]

Got Prey...had 310 points on my account...why not...

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Any accompanying DLC discounts?

Borderlands 2 DLC is on sale, but that's part of DoTW I think.

 

[Sleeplessnights]

Hoping for a cheap Forza and Witcher, still contemplating about Borderlands 2 since I haven't finished 1 yet.

 

[Liha]

Crysis, Prey, Far Cry etc. 20 USD? This guys were greedy.

 

[Hey You]

Too bad these sales are because a new gen is starting and not a new direction MS is taking with sales :/

 

[keit4]

How do you know that? Maybe they are keeping this sale model in the Xbone.

 

[Apath]

It is worth it at full price.

Anyway... grabbed Borderlands 2 and Far Cry 3 for 10 euro. Nice.

Unfortunately I have so many games to play at the moment that I cannot justify another video game purchase unless it's relatively cheap.

I'm in good mood and hope for the latter.

 

[hao chi]

Wow, I think I need to finally play Dragon Age. Also looking forward to seeing the prices on Metal Gear Rising, Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider, and Gears of War Judgement (and yes, those are in order).

 

[Diablohead]

Only Dragon Age for me, half of the games on the list seem to be full price still in the UK

 

[Sec0nd]

Is there anyway I can get 20 MS points somewhere? I've got 220 points on my account and Prey is 240.

Do you have a birthday coming up?

Sign up for the rewards program and do a survey. Might take a day to activate though.

Not available in my country ;'(

 

[Dreaver]

Fuck I love these sales!

I bought Assassin's Creed 3 like 1.5 month ago for €15. Now I'm getting Prey, Dragon Age, Crysis 1 and Far Cry 3. That's like €30-35 I spend on gaming this year. And oh yeah, I also still have Fable and loads of other games.

I am seriously set for the rest of the year, I also still have loads of games sealed (Heavy Rain, Killzone 3).

 

[andregnreis]

Nothing on Crysis 3 yet?

 

[Slygmous]

I believe earned points get deposited on the 1st and 15th of every month, which wouldn't help in this situation unfortunately.

 

[persongr]

I didn't really want to play Far Cry 3 on anything but a powerful PC, but €10 is a steal. Here's hoping it's not a total disappointment.

 

[elektrixx]

Grabbed Borderlands 2, Bulletstorm and Mass Effect. Unfortunately Perfect Dark Zero is AU$19.95.

No survey this month, microsoft being stingy again.

 

[Ushae]

Far Cry 3 and Assassins Creed 3 are both 9,99 Euro/840 Allards here in Germany. Grabbed both.

Fucking hell, I just recently picked AC3 for £20 ...

Oh well I'm really interested in grabbing Far Cry 3 too, so it's not all lost.

 

[Benjamin1981]

Is Borderlands 2 any good in single player? So tempted to buy that.

 

[SeanR1221]

Damn, I recently sold Borderlands thinking I was done with it but 10.00 is way too good to pass up.

 

[K1ng P3n]

Damn, I recently sold Borderlands thinking I was done with it but 10.00 is way too good to pass up.

Same here, but I traded it in. Thinking about grabbing Far Cry 3, Max Payne 3, and Borderlands 2.

 

[SpacLock]

Far Cry 3 or Max Payne 3? What's more bang for the buck?

 

[Miles Quaritch]

It's better in co-op, but it's playable in SP.

 

[Alpende]

I'm going to grab Far Cry 3 if Xbox Live is cooperating and I can add my frigging PayPal details instead of getting errors.

 

[SethMode]

Hey GAF, for the record:

IF YOU'RE AN XBOX LIVE REWARDS MEMBER, YOU CAN GET $20 BACK (1600 POINTS) WHEN YOU BUY 5 GAMES ON DEMAND GAMES FROM NOW TILL JUNE 15TH.



All 5 Games must be $19.99 or higher to count though. :/ Basically buy 5 games on sale that interest you, and if they're all $20 you basically get one free, and or a 20% of your money back, not to shabby,

Also they have that crappy 2% rebate return Market Place purchases for Rewards member... lol $100/8000MSP + the $20 return/2% return= $22...

TO THE TIME MACHINE!

This is great if you meant July 15th...not so helpful if no

I will definitely be picking some of these up. Is Divinity 2 by the Divine Divinity guys? Is it any good? I mean, fo 5 bucks I'm willing to give it a go, but I'm just curious (Beyond Divinity blew a lot of my excitement for the series).

 

[apesh1t]

Far Cry 3 or Max Payne 3? What's more bang for the buck?

Far Cry 3, also it's a better game

 

[Kinyou]

So much for XBL not having good sales

 

[statham]

none of my wanted games dropped today, but I went ahead and bought Prey and PDZ. Tempted to get Divinity II.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

AC3 for 15 bucks. The price I was looking for to complete my collection.

Done.

 

[strata8]

They've been good recently. There was also a massive sale early this year.

 

[theytookourjobz]

I think the season pass for BL2 still ends up being cheaper than all of it piecemeal. The DLC is selling for 800,800,400,400 and the Vault Hunter thing is like 200 I think. The season pass is 2400, so it's still a little cheaper.

 

[user_nat]

10 points short of BL2. Lame.

 

[dragonelite]

Yeah i remembered max payne 3 for like $3.99 if im not mistakne.

That'd be 2,600 msp, which wouldn't be cheaper.

 

[VibratingDonkey]

Make sure to check how much the game costs in Microsoft Points. Sometime they are cheaper than the currency amount listed.

Particularly if you're in mainland Europe and buy points from here.
2100 points is roughly £6 less than on Swedish Xbox Live.
Assassin's Creed 3 is 99:-, with points it becomes 72:-

 

[Captain Tuttle]

Bulletstorm for 5 dollars? Hmmm.

Indeed. Saw it used at Gamestop yesterday for 8 bucks and almost bit. This confirms it for me.

 

[theytookourjobz]

That'd be 2,600 msp, which wouldn't be cheaper.

Yes. That's what I said. Add them all up individually and they are 2600. Season pass is 2400.

 

[Hyun Sai]

Is Crysis worth it at 5$ ?

 

[MikeJAMoran]

Is Crysis worth it at 5$ ?

I'm wondering that myself...

How does it run on 360?

 

[VanquishUK]

Wow, there are some great deals here.

 

[Ghazi]

Yes. That's what I said. Add them all up individually and they are 2600. Season pass is 2400.

Whoops, thought your post said it'd be cheaper to buy them separately. Sorry bout that.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Yes, definitely worth it.

 

[theytookourjobz]

The controls work well for the 360 and it's a fun game but dat framerate...

 

[Alessandro]

Is Mass Effect 1 discount Gold only? Still shows at 14.99€ for me (Italian store).

DA: Origins instead was 4.99€, now I wait for Forza Horizon.

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

I have a 5 year old phat 360, will I run into significant problems with Far Cry 3?

I don't really care about the framerate, I can stomach 25 fps with the occasional dip.

IIRC digitalfoundry wrote it's ranging from 20 to 30 fps on the consoles. Not very smooth but ymmv. Good game though
