These sales are great! I know last year I bought most of my games during this time. Then played them over the course of the year.

I really wish they would do sales like these several times a year. Like 'Sumer Sale Week(s)' or "Xspring Super Sales.'

Thanks for posting.

that's the problem tho, they do actually have sales on now and again, up until last week there was a big ubisoft sale on games on demand stuff, only thing is they sometimes don't advertise it very well, tis a damn shame too because if more people knew they'd put down some cash and get awesome games for it. Tis why I made this thread heh.

Nelsons own site is pretty good for announcing upcoming sales, he is a good PR man and a fan of games.

Yes, I usually check his site quite often. He is the most fair person out there.  True he works for Microsoft, but he will also say nice things about the other consoles and talk about games on their system.

They do, they have sales all the time.  But they have to extra 'one day only' ones in December holiday season.  I got some Skyrim DLC and Walking Dead at like 50% or 75% off.  Those are the deals I wish they had more often.

Yeah the same as the steam flash sales, I really don't get why microsoft are afraid of the steam business model, it clearly works. I think from the start of the X1 when people asked "will it be like steam?" they shouldn't have replied that steam doesn't have family sharing plan and game sharing.. .they shoulda just said "yup" and everyone woulda been well excited for it.

I downloaded the trial of that Heroes of middle earth moba thing.... christ the trial puts you in a game with 4 AI 2 of mine just faced into a wall and didn't fight at all and one of the enemy AI just went on a rampage farming the rest of my team for 30 mins.... I definately spent money after a Demo that good :D sure I know the full game you'll be playing with other players all the time but my god that trial was infuriating.
