This sounds cool as hell, but I'm not buying it. 

There's a new Game Awards Sale going on right now:

Mostly stuff that was already available for the same prices during the Black Friday sale though.

that initiative rumor sounds like it could be really cool but that sounds like a lot more work to put on themselves and sort of complicated

like at that point why even refer to it as a single game? if the first episode is Perfect Dark and the second is like Blinx or some shit would those just be considered new installments in those franchises or would it just be "part of The Initiative's main game"

Yakuza: Like a Dragon for 20% off is decent but I haven't even finished the PS4 version yet so I pass for now.

The Initiative’s game is all but confirmed but I hope that we see Hellblade 2 as well.

Ok, this is the best rumor I've seen you post. 15-20 hours is a good length, I hope for more than just themes and it actually involves characters in the universe; namely Joanna herself.

3 observations:

I’m straight up waiting for next gen Cyberpunk. Feel like the patches and next gen optimizations will be worth it.

Rare Replay on Switch and Game Pass PC I kinda see the positives. Serves as a Trojan horse for Xbox into Nintendo. Also a great way to enhance their relationship. Possibly a “trade” if Master Chief ever comes to Smash. So long as PS doesn’t get it Xbox retains this gem for their brand, also it strengthens PC GP offerings. 

The guy who said the Perfect Dark seasonal Xbox IP swapping...is that guy a reputable leaker?

Having Halo on Smash isn't that great of a trade... if anything it gives switch even more potential buyers.

Trade would have something nintendo on xbox, some game.

Well technically Nintendo “allowed” Minecraft Steve and Banjo to be on Smash. Very generous of Nintendo. :p

Looks like Jeff Grub has leaked Perfect Dark by The Initiative on his Twitter.
