Some good stuff this week!
This plays amazingly on Series X for anyone wondering, by the way. Runs at 1440p and you can uncap the framerate which gave you a kind of fine uncapped 60fps with dips on the One X but is absolutely rock solid 60fps on Series X.
Looks and plays great.
I know it's been on sale several times recently, but I was kind of hoping Ubisoft would go in on Warlords of New York sale pricing for the launch of the new-gen patch tomorrow. Oh well!
How do the classic Mega Man games fare on Xbox? I know there was some issues with input lag in some of the collections... I'm mostly just interested in the Megaman Zero/ZX Collection and MegaMan 11 (not a classic but still on sale!).

Tempted to get Saints Row: The Third Remastered and Saints Row IV: Re-Elected...
I own the Xbox 360 versions and the DLC, but I wouldn't mind having the enhanced editions.
Already bought Control Ultimate Edition cheaper during the holiday sale. Mega Man collections are somewhat tempting, but only for Achievements since I own the games already (except for X7 and X8), and I hear the collections have some small issues.
Edit: Bought Saints Row: The Third Remastered. Came out to $10.99 after redeeming a $5 gift card from Microsoft Rewards.

Was waiting for this to go to game pass but at that price I will bite
FYI- buy naruto ultimate ninja storm, the whole saga or at least 3. Wonderful save for the first one. I do genuinely hate that I don't like dragon ball. Kakarot looks so good ;(
Thankfully didn't take too long to go on sale, I have some games on my wishlish that never went on sale at all (in particular some shmups).
It was on sale one time during the week of this past December 15th for $12
Gonna wait until tomorrow to see if there's a rewards punchcard for buying anime games. I already got the one for buying $40 of anime TV shows ($8 a pop is so good).
I'm so tempted to get that game for my wife, I know she's dying for playing it (she's like 200 hours in Odyssey) bit it's too much for out budget. Do you think, or does anyone think it might get cheaper for next spring sale?
A few things:
1.) The physical edition is cheaper ($35 on Amazon atm), and I can see it being $30 in physical retail soon.
2.) Looking through the price history for Assassin's Creed Odyssey - it was released in October 2018, and it was $24 in July 2019. I think with the summer or spring sale you'll see Valhalla hit $30 and if you have Xbox Live Gold maybe $25.
3.) Depending on what country you live in, there are ways to get easy Xbox/Microsoft Store Credit. And that's via Microsoft Rewards. Below is the official Era OT. You and your wife can both make accounts, and easily get $10+ in credit each month.

I hope my Steam refund of Metro Exodus gets processed before the sale is over. keeps crashing I won't deal with that headache on the Xbox version
Ouf thanks a lot for this! I've been tracking prices myself and I do hope that it will get to 25 soon. Spring sale is not that far, summer sale is a bit longer wait but nothing too crazy. I'll check physical, new or used, that's a good tip.
Also, yeah we both are all in MS Rewards, it's a great way to cover GPU which is a great value.
Homefront - Revolution, I hear mixed reviews on it. Still looks like it holds up well today. Whats the general consensus ? good game ?
Are og Xbox and 360 games in these lists? I really only use my Xbox as a bc/gamepass machine, it'd be cool to find a straight list of which bc games are on sale
