not gonna lie this sale is underwhelming

not gonna lie this sale is underwhelming

IMHO, all digital game sales, besides GOG's, have been underwhelming....especially the newer AAA titles.

Currently, planning to get voodoo vince & Halo Wars 2 ultimate edition since they are xbox play anywhere titles..

Any other titles that I should be thinking about getting that are xbox play anywhere.

Disclaimer, already have FH3, Ori, & Recore

 

[MeatGrinder]

How can someone still not have the Metro games?
.

I didn't buy the bundle because I didn't know if I would like it... I ended up loving it ! Been holding on until the game came on sale again !

 

[cucuchu]

Never played Fable since Xbox one is my first Xbox console so I will probably grab the trilogy. Might as well finally buy Record too...looks like good fun

 

[Novocaine]

Grabbing Superhot and TF2. Probably about time I played through those.

What does the Doom season pass give you exactly?

Do you need the season pass to play Arcade Mode and get achievements for Arcade Mode?

If I don't care about Doom multiplayer would it be a huge waste to buy the season pass?

The season pass is MP only stuff. Ignore it and just grab the base game. Arcade mode was a free update.

 

[Hawk269]

It would be nice if they flagged Xbox One games that will be getting XBX upgrades. Right now I am hoping Titanfall 2 will have a good price. Planned to get it at launch, but things came up and never ended up getting it.

 

[Fleshfeast]

Backwards compatible?

Nope

 

[steveovig]

If I had a trial Gold membership, can I still get the better discounts for this sale? I'd really love to bite on the Disney Afternoon Collection but I'm not Gold and they haven't offered me another $1 month yet.

[the_darkness]

Yep, another sale thread on gaf.

"These 10 games I want aren't being sold for the lowest price they've ever been. This sale sucks."

 

[Montresor]

Not a bad sale at all (for me at least). I ended up getting:

Deus Ex Mankinded Deluxe (includes Season Pass)
Little Nightmares
Furi
Thimbleweed Park

Grabbing Superhot and TF2. Probably about time I played through those.

The season pass is MP only stuff. Ignore it and just grab the base game. Arcade mode was a free update.

Thanks. I've actually decided I'll get the disc for Doom.

 

[Hip Hop]

To celebrate me buying an Xbox One S, I just purchased

Spoiler

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Legacy Edition

 

[Toa TAK]

Nope

Damn.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

geeze, forgot about Far Cry Primal. Apex Edition is 22 bucks...didn't find anything from search for Far Cry Primal in Neogaf.

Any feedback on this one?

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Blue Dragon is on sale too

 

[Madrugador]

Tales of Vesperia is on sale, nice. I'll get it just in case it becomes retro compatible (please?).

 

[CadaveriaIX]

Picked up ESO, don't even really know why, just had a craving for Elder Scrolls for some reason lol

 

[NESpowerhouse]

Windows 10
Rise of the Tomb Raider - $23.99

Gee, this would have been nice earlier in the year, so I wouldn't have had to go through that bullshit of accidentally buying the Xbone version.

 

[Booker.DeWitt]

Why live sales are always worse than psn? I don't understand , if you are behind in number is sales, maybe you should be more aggressive with gane pricing ?

 

[Toa TAK]

I personally enjoyed it a lot. I didn't play 4 before this one so I wasn't fatigued by the formula and I was absorbed by the novelty of Stone Age Far Cry. Easy 1000/1000, as well.

if a game is on steam, thats where you should buy it

 

[Rocketz]

In for DS3 season pass

 

[Novocaine]

🤔

 

[Mass Effect]

Hmm, I was lamenting the fact that all 3 (Steam, PSN, XBL) were having these sales at the same time, but there really isn't anything for me here to pick up this time.

 

[Prophane33]

Awesome timing. I just hooked up my 360 again last week for the first time in 4 years, and bought a 250GB HDD (and a few exclusives I missed out on) to replace the 20GB HDD I've had for 10 years. Going to pick up Lost Odyssey and Beautiful Katamari on this sale.

 

[clav]

Seems strange to not have a Minecraft original game sale.

 

[Fess]

So, lets go from one closed box to another closed box?

Nah. GOG it is. Always GOG, otherwise just buy wherever it's the cheapest.

Anyhow, pretty decent prices here but I already have the best ones. Maybe I pick up ReCore just to have another PA title.

 

[Inceptional]

RE7 for $36 and HW2 UE for $40 are the only decent XBO deals.

 

[jond76]

I see that The Darksiders Collection is down to $20. Its not on the list. For those interested.

Might pick up Watch Dogs 2

 

[Raylan Targaryen]

Gonna pick up a few titles so this sale is solid. No FH3/Darksiders though, or am I blind?

Nvm post above mentions darksiders

 

[Night.Ninja]

Who do I make a complaint to about the witcher 3 still being over priced I'm sure they had the complete edition on sale for £12.00 and now they have the vanilla version on sale for £14.99 straight fucking over early buyers of the game who want to go digital after buying the disk version

Not happy

 

[rasberryjam]

Is $45 the best deal for Injustice 2? Been meaning to snag that, but Tekken took priority.

why didnt you buy at 12? Sorry they fucked you over. They are evil masterminds.

Nope, Horizon 3 not on sale.

That shit never goes on sale.... Bastards.

 

[greenmind]

my backlog is like 50 plus games on all consoles.. ugh

 

[oneida]

basically the same price as GCU depending on your state tax situation, only you could resell a physical copy if you're only interested in story mode

 

[Keinning]

Grabbing Blue Dragon & Lego Beyond Gotham
I think its a pricing error: a Lego game for less than 50 reais! That never happens even in sales

Checking some impressions to see if i grab Kona & Tokyo 42 as well

Thinking about Dishonored 2 and Dying Light but probably not getting them because i believe the prices will still drop more in the near future

 

[rezn0r]

KEEP BUYING ALL THE GAMES

Spoiler

i hear ya man, I'm screwed

 

[Correctomundo]

I was gonna buy Voodoo Vince anyway, you magnificent bastards. Looks like I'll put the 5 bucks I'm saving on Riptide.

 

[Doffen]

Seems strange to not have a Minecraft original game sale.

Why? It's never on sale.

 

[93xfan]

In for some 360 games. I think I have everything I want on Xbox One unless there's a great discount on KI DE.

Unfortunately it's an exact repeat of the sales they had a few months ago for BC games. Wish Virtual Fighter 5, Daytona and Hard Corps Uprising were going on sale.

I didnt know rise of the tomb raider was on GOG

 

[the_darkness]

Think it was more a response to your silly comment that all games should only be bought on steam.

 

[razzel]

Any thoughts on the witness? I'm not usually into puzzle games, of course outside of portal and portal 2, but this one has me interested due to all the glowing reviews.

Buy at $16 or wait for cheaper?

 

[World SkiFree]

I may be the first/only to say this but happy to see The Bureau on sale for the 360.

 

[NESpowerhouse]

Oh, to clarify, I had like $38 in Windows Store credit that I needed to burn.

I mean, I'd say it's much more of a "puzzle" game than the Portals (that's worded bad, I love the Portals), so if you truly aren't into them you may be turned off by it early on... but it is really well done and a steal at $16 if you ask me.

 

[Rosvoja Torilla]

I might jump in on The Witness. 16 money sounds solid. Cheapest I've seen it go has been 20 money.

I'm disappointed at Bioshock Collection being 30 money. I've seen it go for less. I think it was like 20 money at some other sale. But I missed it then by a few hours. I was at work so I couldn't buy it.

What up the_darkness.
