Zapp Brannigan

Exactly the game I wanted. I won't be able to play it until after Christmas cos my Xbox isn't online but at least I have something to look forward to.

RobertFoster

The varies by region price of Oblivion and LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga is €22.49

Think I'll give Bastion and Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet a go. First Steam, now XBL, roll on PSN

I can't seem to find the deals as easily with the new dash. DOTW is there but I don't see any of the above listed anywhere. If I go into the game the sale price is there alright but I thought there would be a highlighted/promoted grouping of them as there used to be.

Moiph

Must get points for Bastion!!!

Yeah I have the same problem which is why I created the thread in case we miss a deal !!!!!!

Hopefully we will get the now annual leak of the release schedule so we can see what's coming in the next week or so

Odd thing is I can see it if I log in with my UK account, noticed it when I was getting 4od app earlier.

You mean you know what the deals are going to be each day? I hope either of the Toy Soldiers games get reduced! I'm keeping points in hope of that.

No, I mean the full line up usually gets leaked a few days into the sale.

Both are Kinect titles.

Bought that Leedmees game before GOW3 launch, desperately looking for something to play, seemed good in the trial, but the more complex the puzzles got then, the worse kinect seemed to perform.

I can't recommend it at all, even if it seems ok in the trial, it might be best to avoid, as you will be going mad when that stick shape of you stops responding and fails the complex levels on ya....infuriating.

I really hope that list is wrong for the most part, gears season pass would be good value if right though. Also notice no deal listed for the 23rd.... so like I say take it with a pinch of salt.

Mr E

Crap list if it's true.

Terrible stuff....

djkeogh

i think if they shave much price of the Gears Season Pass this early they're gonna piss a lot of people off. It would tempt me to pick it up though.

Moiph

I was gonna get the Gears season pass today but I might wait and see now if it does get reduced.

calex71

Dec 23rd Mortal Kombat: Season Pass. Normally 1200 points, today you can get it for 600.

Plus Deadliest Warrior: Legends is 400 Points (normally 800)


and

Deadliest Warrior: Legends, Joan of Arc game add-on is 120 points (normally 240)

Really glad I didn't bother getting in extra points now

I got 2100 to waste, nothing tempting me at all.

I know, I only got the Lonesome Road DLC and Gunrunners Arsenal for Fallout NV, can't wait to go back to that game. Also got bastion the other day, and After Burner .... which took all of 1 hour to finish with all achievements :mad:

Mr E

OP updated.

If tomorrow is Street Fighter 3 Third Strike, then its a fair bet the table in post #16 above is correct. If Christmas Day is Fruit Ninja, then I'll just update the OP with that table and never visit this thread again.

Wasn't a fan of Fallout at all, man they have a lot of DLC sales, hate to see them on sale again, nothing for me there. :pac:

Feck, should have got After Burner if the points were that easy. Cheevo Whore that I am.

I must be the only person who likes Fruit Ninja, even if it did cost 10 times more than its mobile versions.

AceCard Jones

I'm waiting for the FO New Vegas GOTY in February, I'll trade in my standard edition against it or sell it on or something since we all know Amazon will have it for €30 less than everywhere else. If it's like FO3 GOTY I'm sorted, you got an install disc with that for the DLC which was awesome for loaning to friends etc. Sonic sales are great but don't do me any favours as I buy them all day 1. I also was going to get the Gears 3 season pass today...

I know I'll kick myself if it comes out reduced on the 30th too....
If only there was some way of knowing for sure if the list was accurate :rolleyes:

PJTierney

Only thing I want out of the rumoured list is the Forza 4 Season Pass, gotta get me a Ford Escort for eff-all

It is great craic, if it's goin cheap definitely download it, it's just pure fun.

Mr E

Looks like that's that. Street Fighter 3 today.

Will I just update the OP with the table, or wait to see if Fruit Ninja comes tomorrow?

Ughhhh I was really hoping the list wasn't right

Oh well a penny saved and all that

AceCard Jones

But Calex if the list is right all the Gears stuff is on sale soon.
Or did you already buy the DLC or trade gears in? I'm going to need people for the multiplayer achievements.
