Biggest sale ... Again...
@NintendoByNature "my time has come" - Master Oogway
It’s worth noting that when searching through the deals on your Xbox it may not be showing you all the games that are on sale. I’m on my Xbox now and it’s only showing 990 games under the All game deals tab. I’d like to know where the rest of the 400+ deals are.
@MaccaMUFC I've noticed that on the website version of the Xbox Store, it's eliminating certain deals that I've found elsewhere. It's possible they're not all being listed properly yet (the sale doesn't officially go live until Friday).
For example, the website doesn't list Mass Effect Legendary Edition as being "On Sale", but it is. It's doing this with a whole bunch of games right now.
Atlas Fallen for $36 seems like a good deal. I think that's a bit cheaper than it was for Black Friday!
6 bucks for the Mass Effect Legendary Edition is an awesome deal
@FraserG I’ve noticed it happen quite often when there’s big sales on like this. Hopefully it’ll be resolved with the official release tomorrow.
I’ll only be buying Dead Island 2 Gold Edition for my son who I game share with, I’ve already completed the base game when I rented it on release but I’ll go back to it for expansions. I was hoping Truck and Logistics Simulator would also be in the sale after seeing the article of the game on here yesterday, I suppose it’s already at a fairly decent price at £24.99.
I don’t mean to hate on it but to me this sale is disappointing. I have 7 games on my wishlist and the best deal I have on offer is Dead island 2 at €42 which is still a bit steep for me. Considering its the ‘biggest sale of the year’ it’s definitely not great.
@Kloppo The sale does not officially start until Friday so you may see more discounts then. Having said this, I am disappointed so far aswell. Octopath Traveler has only dipped to £25. It's a lesser-known game and is more than 2.5 years old.
Hmm, PSPrices isn't showing anything at the moment. Maybe the sale starts early morning tomorrow?
I am sure there are some all time lows in there but what a hard way to find them … I need a web site that tracks the prices historically and alerts me when a game hits a new low……
@AlwaysPlaying Xbdeals and PSPrices are your friends.
I’m thinking hogwarts, robocop and assassins’ creed (even though I haven’t started Valhalla lol).
If Baldur's Gate 3 came out on Xbox when it should have come out, it would be included in this sale. Going to check it out on my PS5, perhaps I'll get lucky over there.
@Ryu_Niiyama Dude, RoboCop is so good! I couldn't stop playing it.
Im hoping to ge the neverwinter nights and the old baldurs gate things on sale ill check tom
Can anyone explain to me why we pay for Xbox live on console but it’s free for pc?
Some better prices than usual. Final fantasy X collection is usually 50% off when it goes on sale. This time it's 60%. Was hoping for better deal on Sekiro though.
@ValkyriaProfile what I mean is why I can play multiplayer mcc on pc for free but need to pay for it on Xbox. I’ve had mcc for years on my one x but never bothered with the multiplayer because of the cost. Mcc was on sale so I bought it for my pc and I’m playing multiplayer online now. Having a great time.
Yaay Alan Wake 2 time to sweeten up the Misses so I can get it ha
@Baler because of reasons
@eire-shabba oh rite thanks for that.
@UndyingInsurgent95 Thanks for the info - I will check them out….
Glad i waited on Alan Wake 2. Purchased. Will have to jump in and see what all the fuss is about.
is there any games someone would suggest I love bethesda openworld games other than fallout 76 most of the assassin creed games I own and other than valhalla enjoyed most. Really liked odyssey and the enzio collection.
Rpgs, Strategy, and unfortunately madden are my main things i play. If its outside of that and a good game cheap I would be willing to try it.
@VisitingComet1 If you have Game Pass Starfield, Outer Worlds, Wartales, Mass Effect Legendary Edition, Dragon Age
