Last month, EA brought a 'Buy One Get One Free' sale to Xbox Live, offering up a selection of recent titles as part of a two for one deal. Well, the same promo format has returned this month, only this time it features a lineup of mostly older and cheaper titles.
EA's current BOGOF sale is now live through February 13th, containing games like Titanfall 2, Battlefield V, A Way Out and more. The prices seem to range from £24.99 right up to £59.99 here in the UK.
Here's a look at some of what's available:
Now, we must stress that in reality, this sale is pretty poor to be honest. Yes, a package like Titanfall 2 Ultimate Edition & A Way Out for £24.99 sounds okay, but these games are often on sale for dirt cheap. TF2 Ultimate goes all the way down to about £2.50 pretty often!
So yeah, by all means give this sale a browse if you're desperate to pick up some of these EA titles ASAP. However, across Xbox Game Pass and plenty of other deep discounts, we'd recommend giving this one a miss.
Is this 'BOGOF' sale a bit of a rip off? Leave your thoughts down below.

I dont get these buy one get one free sales. We also had one with Ubisoft games a while back. Considering games from both EA and Ubisoft are usually a lot cheaper than this on regular sales I wonder, what the idea behind these sales is. Are there really people who fall for this BOGOF sale?
@Lavalera I'm with you, don't understand it at all.
@Lavalera yep plenty see a 2 for 1 and go for it.
also 'bad' sales makes the next sale look even 'better' value.
This is such a scam of a sale. A quick look at any price comparison site will show you most of these games have been cheaper recently, bought on their own, and will be soon again.
But if people are buying, more fool them.
You average person doesn’t feel like doing math. Anything that says free has to be a good deal.
The only worse deal I can think of it's those Nintendo vouchers that give you two games for almost as much as what two of the most expensive games on the shop cost.
Sales like these can bog off. See what I did there? BOGOF, bog off? Yeah Peter Kay’s got nothing on me 😌
