[darkinstinct]

Everybody buy Hitman!

 

[MauroNL]

Everybody buy Hitman!

All the individual episode are also on sale at $4 a piece.

 

[Gowans]

I caught these on Store Parser.

I was going to grab ClusterTruck but it's ClusterPuck,

I'll double dip on Rouge Legacy for that price, I'm been playing Paladins with some mate too so think I'll drop a tenner on it now it's on sale.

Gunscape might be a good one for the kids especially in Switch cross play is coming.

 

[MeatGrinder]

No Ori 😭😭

 

[SPCTRE]

Everybody buy Hitman!

my favorite indie title

 

[Mchardy]

I'll finally get Hitman!

 

[MauroNL]

No Ori 😭😭

It was $10 during the entire E3 week.

 

[Xumbrega]

Just grabbed Turing Test, Crypt of the NecroDancer, #killallzombies and Stories of Bethem: Full Moon.

Great sale, also I'm excited to try Stories of Bethem tomorrow, seems like a homage to Earthbound and hopefully is a great game as well.

 

[MauroNL]

Dead Space 2&3 are BC games by the way

 

[Alx]

How is cel damage HD ? I remember having fun with the demo on OG Xbox, but I'm not sure the port got great feedback...

 

[RaginRoss]

Highly recommend The Fall.

Great story and a nice short wee game that you can do in a sitting or two.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

No Ori 😭😭

Dude Ori was on sale literally last week for E3 lol...

my favorite indie title

Actually iO is indie now

 

[danowat]

There´s too many games, too many many games
Too many games, too many many games
Too many games, too many many games
Too many games, too many many games

 

[Lucifon]

Gotta admit there's nothing that really jumps out to me here. Feels like a lot of ps+/gwg fodder as bad as that sounds.

Any hidden gems on the list?

 

[danowat]

What kind of games you like?

 

[JMY86]

Definitely going to pick up Hitman I have been eager to check it out and maybe Rogue Legacy.

 

[JoeLT]

Turing Test still isn't out in Australia.....why?

 

[superNESjoe]

Super GunWorld 2 is $2.40. Help a brother out y'all.

 

[etta]

Does The Turing Test run well?
It looks like the only indie that interests me from that list?

 

[wesleyshark]

Dead Space 2 and 3 for me. Yessss.

YO IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED HITMAN YET $24 IS A STEAL

 

[Senteevs]

Highly recommend The Fall.

Great story and a nice short wee game that you can do in a sitting or two.

This

 

[MeatGrinder]

It was $10 during the entire E3 week.

It was unavailable all the time in the store, I could not get it (!!!)

 

[ViviOggi]

Can vouch for the Turing Test, played it on PC recently and it's just a well-rounded puzzler on the easier side that also goes into a number of currently relevant philosophical questions (although never too deep)

 

[Castef]

Go grab Aqua Kitty and The Turing Test!

Oh, and of course Rogue Legacy.

 

[SPCTRE]

Actually iO is indie now

you do have a point there

 

[Tarahiro]

Just bought Turing Test! Ive been meaning to get that for a while but I kept forgetting about it. I wish Xbox store had a wish list feature.

 

[Conrad Link]

Looks like I'm getting a few indies this week.

My backlog cries, thanks MS. >_<

 

[jesu]

Turing Test for me too, looks pretty good.

 

[Novocaine]

Looks like it's time to get Necrodancer and I might as well triple dip one Rogue Legacy.

 

[ForkNetwork]

GET NECRODANCER PEOPLE

 

[Nheco]

Bought Rogue Legacy (triple dip, already had it on PSV and Steam);
Jotun (double dip, had it on Steam);
Crypt of Necrodancer (triple dip, steam & psv);
Turin Test (new).

I'm happy.

 

[Conrad Link]

I've got a huge list to think about lol, like 70% of the games in the entire sale aren't even available in my region >_> but that's ok cause it's not too difficult to change thankfully.

What does Jotun play like? Action adventure? Zelda? It's hard to tell by some of the videos I've looked at.

Necrodancer gets so many good recommendations, but it never looked like a game I would enjoy. But it's so cheap. Hmm.

 

[Effigenius]

Damnit, not Tenbo!

 

[Gestault]

Yeah, I grabbed Turing right away last night.

 

[flkraven]

Turing Test game looks like that Pnuema game. Can anyone confirm if it's better, because Pnuema was underwhelming?

 

[E92 M3]

What are some "ABSOLUTE-MUST-BUYS-AND-IF-YOU-DON'T-YOU'RE-AN IDIOT" games?

 

[MauroNL]

What are some "ABSOLUTE-MUST-BUYS-AND-IF-YOU-DON'T-YOU'RE-AN IDIOT" games?

I'd like to know as well, not really up to speed with all the current indie games

 

[Falchion]

It's funny to think of Hitman as an indie now but it is after the break with Square Enix.

 

[LordBaztion]

I'm getting Aqua Kitty because .. cats

 

[ROUGE_BLOCK]

Can vouch for the Turing Test, played it on PC recently and it's just a well-rounded puzzler on the easier side that also goes into a number of currently relevant philosophical questions (although never too deep)

Is it at all overly preachy and annoying like pneuma was?

 

[flkraven]

I'm getting Aqua Kitty because .. cats

 

[Christocolus]

Is Idarb any good?

 

[Conrad Link]

I'm getting Aqua Kitty because .. cats

Don't forget Hunter's Legacy!

 

[Doffen]

Is Idarb any good?

Fun party game. Don't know if there is a active MP scene anymore.

 

[Lucky Seven]

Necrodancer and Rogue Legacy stand out to me here. Haven't bought either but seen them played a lot.

 

[Christocolus]

Fun party game. Don't know if there is a active MP scene anymore.

Thanks. I got it.

 

[AusRoachman]

Was about to buy hitman on PS4 sales but here it does not require subscriptions to get a good saving . So I guess I will be playing it on here instead

 

[shandy706]

Is Idarb any good?

Game is awesome.

 

[Undead Bokun]

Bought...
Super Gun World 2
Amazing Princess Sarah
Exile's End
Hunter's Legacy
Bit Dungeon+

Despite owning most on Steam. Only game I regret is Bit Dungeon+. Guess I should've tried my Steam copy before buying it...heh.

Any opinions on the following?
Dungeon Punks
Emily Wants To Play
Fortified
Level 22
Monochroma

Dungeon Punks and Fortified are out of impulse buy territory but look fun. Meanwhile, Emily Wants to Play and Level 22 are cheap but look questionable. Monochromatic seems like it would be right up my alley. Any thoughts on these would be appreciated!
