Planning on getting:

Diablo 3 Eternal Collection
Resident Evil 5 + 6
Witcher 3
Game pass

I may or may not get Dragon Ball FighterZ. Still on the fence there given the price.

Hellblade and Ultimate MvC 3 are mine for sure, I need to check my Resident Evil stuff and see which ones I still need too.

Just a reminder for the Walking Dead Collection. Preordering the final season of the Walking Dead for $20 will immediately get you the full collection for free. It's actually a better deal than with the sale this week.

Give me ALL the games.

Seriously, despite playing about 500 games on the 360 I want everything that even remotely interests me, BC or not...
I think I have all the missing 360 games in the OP now, quite a few added but most of them are usual suspects like Borderlands and Mass Effect. Check the list in OP again to make sure you don't miss out on something.

Fuck GameStop. Used a $50 giftcard to get a $50 Xbox giftcard online. Order went through, got a confirmation code on screen that I thankfully took a screenshot of, but no code. No email, nothing. Called GameStop, was on the phone for an hour! They can't figure it out. Said they see the money was taken for the transaction but can't find the order. Now I need to wait at least two business days for a response. Shit company with shit service. Rant over.

Just got a One X a couple weeks ago and looking to pick up some graphically impressive stuff. 4K, HDR, all that jazz.

Are there any showcase games on sale? I have Game Pass, so I already have a decent amount of stuff. Just looking to get blown away.

That's terrible, sorry about that. Luckily the deals will still be there by then. I was just about to go do the exact same thing online but now I don't know...

Metal Gear Rising and SSX 2012 sound like a good time to me.

Gotta say, Game Pass is a great way to usher new users in. Day 1 One X here and I have about 450GB worth of games queued up for download. That doesn't feel bad at all.

Would you guys recommend MvCI for a discounted price? I know most people didn't like the game but how really awful is it?

Forza 7, Assasins Creed Origins, DOOM, Battlefront 2 are all really good looking games

couldn't resist and bought the Forza Horizon 3 Platinum Plus Expansions Bundle. I think it's a great deal, isn't it?

Hellblade is an awesome game. Otherwise the Bethesda bundles are all excellent quality/value.

To anyone who doesn't have the Forza Horizon 3 expansions, buy them! Hot Wheels is alright but Blizzard Mountain is awesome.

Thanks. Game is not open world right?

No not open world exploration, just a base where you can roam and speak to peope but as soon as you start mission it takes you to location.

Think of it a bit like Hitman, large levels where you can go in ultra stealth or ultra magic/death, plays whatever way you like or a combination of both.

Some varied achievements if that's your thing to like no kill playthroughs.

Don't buy Forza Horizon 3 because Forza Horizon 4 is on the horizon(sorry) for Game Pass.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 is very beautiful. Whether it's a good game is debatable but it will be quite a showcase for your new hardware.
If you have good hdr TV, Destiny 2 + DLC bundle and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare are also a good ones. The colorful explosion in dark space might look quite good for HDR.
Many says Assassin's Origin is the most beautiful game they've played on any console. So maybe try that.

What's the Long Dark like guys?
It's probably the best pure survival game out there. There's no zombies or dinosaurs or whatever. Just you vs nature.

The open world is massive and detailed. There's multiple scenarios that test you including gathering resources before a blizzard hits, avoiding a bloodthirsty bear, among others. There's also an episodic single player but I wouldn't recommend buying it for that alone.

If you're a fan of survival games that test your scavenging and resource management, then I highly recommend it.

I went all the way in.

Cuphead
Ori
Black Ops 1
Fallout NV
Life is Strange
Prey
Surviving Mars
Torchlight
Beyond Good & Evil

For $125 you can't beat that. I can't wait to not play all these games!

I hate when the gold editions are on sale but not the season passes. Way to punish the people who have already bought your game.

  • Battlefront 2
  • Evil Within
  • Evil Within 2
  • RE6
  • Doom
  • Assasins Creed Origins Gold

Snagged some game pass, at that price might pass sale details on to my PC friends see if they want to try- is there an up to date list of play anywhere titles that are in game pass?

I went HAM on this deal, thanks to a large amount of Microsoft money I've been sitting on thanks to the extra 40% trade-in deal at GameStop a while back. A few Xbox One Enhanced titles too which is nice!

Anyhoo, picked up:

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
Diablo III: Eternal Collection
The Evil Within 2
The Evil Within Digital Bundle
Mortal Kombat XL
Pac-Man 256
Pac-Man Championship Edition 2
Final Fantasy Type-0 HD
Resident Evil 6

Paid a few bucks out of pocket after my credit, but at least it's taken care of lol. Hello backlog.

Fucking Horizon is on sale, of course. I bought the deluxe for $35 during the E3 sale, Blizz Mountain expansion for $8 during a sale a couple weeks ago, and now the whole fucking package is only $39 or whatever.

I wish they'd at least discount the DLC for us schmucks who already own it. When I checked the Hot Wheels expansion, it was still $20. Same for Shadow of War. The Gold version is like $35 now but any DLC discount? Not that I saw. I could have swore there used to be a season pass but I don't see them anymore. I guess I might trade in my disc and buy the gold digital.

Amazing prices on these games if you don't own them though, especially Forza Horizon. I'd be really pissed about what I bought but it's so damn good. Lesson learned for 4 though.

Is just cause 3 any good? It's so cheap, although its on sale every 2nd week it seems.

I want to play battlefront 2 campaign but will probably wait for ea access for that one.

I grabbed Hellblade, Invisible Hours, and Okami HD

since I either already own or wasn't really interested (at the current) price most everything else (holding out for 50% off or better before I grab Far Cry 5, I really just want the remaster of 3) I decided to go ahead and knock out a few of my fall games since eBates has 15% cash back on Microsoft right now so I've now preordered RDR2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey (I'm a sucker for Ancient Greece), and Life is Strange 2

still have ~$10 left in credit

Was hoping to get Assassin's Creed Origin and Far Cry 5 but it's still more expensive on sale than physical . :(

Pretty poor sale all round, even more so if you own gamepass and most of the bigger games in the past 12 months.
