well dépends what you are looking for.... I prefer discounts on arcade games than AAA games.... for 2 reasons.... first AAA games if they are in my wishlist chances are by the time they get on discount I already have them.... and if I don't I probably don't care enough to buy them DD on 360 when I could find them for cheaper on disc used....

XBLA games on the other hand are not available at retail or used.... and non AAA games of quality are hard to pin point randomly... those sales allow me to try/buy/enjoy a bunch of games I wouldn't have if it weren't for those sales....

I love those sales the way they are and hope they keep that way and just use the free games for gold for AAA games and if possible more recent games....


I really hung my head in shame at the start of Dec when the free game was Gears 1, that game is 1.99 here in stores and anyone who has ever considered playing it has done so many years ago I think.

But yeah I think the discounted arcade titles are a really cool thing, I've picked up Zuma Revenge/wreckateer for 94cent and Trials Evolution + all it's dlc for about 6 euros compared to the normal price of about 25 for all that, absolutely delighted since that is a game I'll never see in a bargain bin.

well... if you pay the Games on demand prices for the games.... then the passes are cheap!

Kinda a shame of a bad day I know especially when you consider that the Game of the Year Edition of Injustice has come out  recently which features almost all the Season pass dlc for that game in it, Still tho might be some people who want this stuff so, gratz for them!

Well... that's a shame the day where CoD Ghosts was the daily was the last day of the sale. Well hopefully people picked up a few bits and pieces for themselves to play over the start of 2014 and I hope everyone had a nice New year last night.

Oh worth checking out the games with gold game has rolled forwards now and it's sleeping Dogs the GTA clone by square enix, all of its dlc is on offer too this week if you have gold, just make sure you get the license before the 16th and you can download this fairly massive title when you got the chance.
