I've got the trilogy on back compat. Aiming was never a strong point of the series until Infinite. Very clunky in the original, maybe a bit better in 2.

Are we getting new games this week by any chance?
It runs pretty good with the unlocked framerate option. Personally, I still think it looks fantastic, despite being 720p

The sale in general was awful (literally every price was higher than previous sales and 33%-50% higher than physical disc prices during blk friday and Xmas BB/Target/etc...sales)...but the dailies were truly next level, joke-worthy steaming excrement. Like Phil and co. were seriously trolling everyone for shits n giggles.

Thinking about taking on the Dark Souls series. Already have 1, although haven't played it. 2 is on sale for $13.20 right now. What's the consensus on that one?
Should I even do the first or just go to the second one?

I only got Forza Horizon 3. I thought most of the other deals were crap. Except for Catherine in the US, but I live in the UK, and some fucks at Microsoft/Atlus/wherever decided that wasn't going to be in the sale here.

Didn't buy anything. Overall really bad sale.

got Darksiders 2 and i am in love with it
The problem with daily deals is publishers look at it like "Should we put our game on a daily deal, or a weekly deal and get more sales?"
In an Ideal world daily deals should be a higher % off but that never happens (at least on console)
depends on what you were looking for.

The one game I wanted 😕
I have $18 in"Microsoft Money" that I got from there website for buying FFXV and Bing rewards. Yet I'm not sure how to use it and I'm not the only one apparently.
I tried navigating the website to buy something with no luck. Tried at the Xbox store on my Xbox One with no luck. Called the 1-800 number with no luck because I really could not understand the person.
Is there any way I can use this money or credit on the MS store or at the Xbox store?

Last time I looked it was peanuts on CD Keys if you really want it.
Edit - I take it back, looks like they're out of stock now. It's been on there for about a tenner for the past year....
I've been watching since around Black Friday and it has been around $21 and $23 CAD. Was also hoping to grab it for around $10-15 CAD.

What does the error message say.
Got The Escapists, that stupid Goat Simulator DLC, Witcher 3 Complete, Minecraft Story Edition, and Contrast. With that and Halo Wars 2 coming this year... I think I've bought all the games I'm going to for the next year three days into it, haha. GwG will more than take care of the rest of the time.
They actually write "in case you need it"? lmao
That error code should've been fixed a couple months back. What OS version are you running?
start-->winver-->14393.?
I will have to check as soon as I get home from work and report back!
I am using build 14393.576
$15 bucks on eBay. They'll even take an offer.
I got mine on eBay for $5.50 a couple of weeks ago.
Sword Coast Legends is 10 bucks...its hidden tough,the only way to see it is with a search...
The console release of this went almost completly unnoticed but I remember playing it on PC during one of those Steam free weekends are really enjoyed it...did they mess it up on consoles or is no one interested in games like this anymore...I had fun solo,co-op should be even better...I'm going to pick it up anyway at that price.

Mad Max is surprisingly good and has great upgrade paths, missions, and vehicular fun. Loving it, as I just completed Shadows of Mordor.

Doesn't seem to work outside UK. Got my order through but it's still pending an hour later..
Sorry it didn't work for you. I'm from outside the UK too but got mine. Apparently it was a pricing error so you had to be quick. They fixed it pretty quickly.
I'll give anything to had played dark souls 2 before darks souls 1.
I hated shadow of mordor, do you think I'll enjoy mad max?

I think I might pick up Rare Replay digitally.
I already own the disk, but it would be nice to have those games always on my system, and I got a $10 credit from Bing rewards, so it's basically free.

hahaha playing through with no guide is rough, earlier i got killed by a dragon ???
The repetitiveness of the missions and the old tower climbing thing. I enjoyed the combat however.
The RotTR season pass was pretty good I thought. It's a shame you didn't grab it during black Friday, it was since ludicrous price like $4 or something.
I don't have the base game, so I'm eyeing the 20 Anniversary edition or whatever it's name is.
For some reason the vanilla version is like $1 more expensive. But good to know, thanks.

I got Rare Replay digitally once I installed the disc and realized that like half the games aren't on the disc and have to be downloaded anyway. It's kind of a digital collection with a disc unlock key, and I don't miss having to put the disc in to access everything.
