Looks like Xbox is having a "E3" game sale
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Not on sale, but yesterday I picked up 360's Final Fantasy XIII for 7.99 from the online store.
Its full 4k, and has best quality cinematics too (~30gb total size)
If that fills your cup, 7.99 is like being on sale :)
I just bought Dark Souls Remastered. I really need to try getting into one of these games again. I already own the other two (as well as Demon's Souls on PlayStation 3). Are any of these games considered to be more "approachable" than the others for new players?
I'm a recent Souls player, so someone else may know, but in the last few months I've played DS:R, DS II, Bloodborne, and DS III, in that order. Whatever one you play first is going to be the most difficult, but I did find Dark Souls Remastered a very good introduction and it made me fall in love with From's games.
Good to know. I was figuring I'd just play them in release order, since surely the follow-up games would have more complex mechanics or something in some form, though I also wanted to be sure that they hadn't maybe improved in terms of making some less obvious stuff from the original easier to discoverable.
Definitely Dark Souls Remastered. DS2 is maybe a bit harder? DS3 and BB are a lot faster. Sekiro is even faster and more aggressive, but I've played them all except BB prior to Sekiro so I was more... acclimated to it than newcomers may be.
They're all great though!
With my Xbox Live about to run out, here's to hoping they put that up on sale today/tomorrow too.
6.49 in canada but you're right, it's cheap enough already. For some reason i was thinking it was like 15$
Recore, Ori and Sunset Overdrive are 5€ each !
That's usually its price when it's on sale :D

Mentioned earlier that I picked up Forza Motorsport 7. Forgot how good this looks, and the HDR implementation is really nice. Funny though, the same bug I noticed at launch is still in there, where the Honda S2000 speedometer numbers aren't aligned properly over the backdrop. :P
Yes, it's better that you wait. Dishonored Collection went on sale for $23 dollars during last year's Black Friday and New Year's sale.
A lot of BC games go on sale regularly but Ninja Gaiden 2 rarely goes on sale for some reason.
Also recently dipped back into Forza 7 and, you're right, it's a gorgeous game. I forgot. Fully native 4K at a perfect 60 too. It's a stunning achievement, especially considering juts how much game there is in there. It's a huge, beautiful game.
Forza 8 gonna be bonkers.
I don't see it on the list for sale in the US. Am I just missing it?

Does Killer is Dead go on sale all that often? I don't feel like it does.
Can't wait for the next-gen Forza Motorsport. Hopefully we will finally get proper 24-hour day/night cycle with changeable weather for true immersion.
You get a ton of cars with it, so yeah I would say so. It's not essential but nice to have. Forza 7 also has a lot of free cars too. It'll be a tiny bit tedious to go through and download them all, but it's a nice way to jumpstart the game, as getting cars can be a little slow for a while.
Too bad just the base game though. That ultimate add-ons collection needs to come back online. Lots of great cars and the expansions are great.
Really weak sale for me personally. It's all the same shit that's typically on Sale with no real variety from the smaller Devs/Pubs.
Hopefully the 360 sale goes up soon.

It's up. Just very okay.
Yet again a lot more EA stuff like dragon age but no Dragon Age 2 DLC. Sigh. Even mass effect gets dlcon sale every once in a while. Dragon Age origins will sometimes randomly get like Leliana's song and that's it. Shame because the dlc is the best part of 2.
Anyway, it's on major nelson's blog.
I think they'll have a list up tomorrow but anyways I used the filter on true achievements site which gave a list: https://www.trueachievements.com/products/xbox-sales
Far Cry Classic for 89 cents isn't bad lol.
Damn, definitely a shame for a sale. At least the Cyberpunk Bundle is a good deal.
