[Shtef]

I will get read dead redemption 2 and probably never play if 60fps doesn't come out.

 

[Zuzu]

Just bought Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, Resident Evil Code Veronica and Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core.

Thinking about getting Resident Evil 0…maybe some other games as well.

 

[Shtef]

- red-dead-redemption-2
- grand-theft-auto-v
- ori-and-the-will-of-the-wisps
- bioshock-the-collection
- planet-of-lana
- sifu
- star-wars-jedi-fallen-order-deluxe

 

[Cocksman]

How are the Sherlock Holmes games? Warts and all, LA noire was my absolute jam back in the day. Would SH scratch that same kind of itch?

 

[adamsapple]

Decent amount of BC games on sale too.

 

[SirTerry-T]

Dungeons & Dragons - Chronicles of Mystara for two quid? Cheaper than a pint....

 

[Sleepwalker]

Any decent BC titles?

 

[ManaByte]

Picked up Alan Wake II Deluxe. Have it on PS5, but the XSX one performs better and I want to support Remedy.

 

[adamsapple]

Any decent BC titles?

Jade Empire, the KoToR games, Force Unleashed 1,2 , couple of X360 RE games, Lost Odyssey etc

If you're a fan of RPGs and somehow haven't played it yet, Dragon Age Origins is on sale for $2.24. Unfortunately it's just the base game though. Still a great game for a great price. Skate 3 for $3 is great fun too. Especially since the new Skate game coming out looks like a free-to-play stinker.

 

[RAIDEN1]

If only they would bring out the next Mass Effect already, there is only so much mileage you can get out of playing the trilogy...over and over..

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

I wonder if should grab AW2 + RE4 + Phantom Liberty. Would cost 100 together. Seems like a good deal.

Personally I don't want to see the modern Bioware's take on Mass Effect. And it can only be a take at this point, considering that the lost a lot of talent long time ago.

 

[Punished Miku]

Took a chance on Shred Nebula for $2.50, dorky looking ancient 360 shmup published by MS.

It actually IS SUPER FUN. Just going through this tutorial was impressive. There are a lot more button commands than I expected. Very glad I got it.

 

[Paperboy]

How annoying that you won't see the price without clicking on the game if the game is included in Game Pass.

 

[BigLee74]

I have everything I need now, these sales are useless to me. Saturation is real.

Of course, finding the time or inclination to play the games I’ve bought over the years is a different story altogether.

 

[NeverYouMind]

Well, I decided to grab Hi-Fi Rush at long last. PC mods suck anyways and it runs just as well on a Series S.

P.S. I am disappointed that the Neo Geo titles are never discounted and it is always the same backwards compatible titles getting discounts. Always looking to snag Max Payne 2 at a discount, but I may just as well grab the PC version for a third of the price.

Haha I've had 2 Neo Geo games on my wishlist for what seems like forever. One day.......

Which two? I would be interested in acquiring Metal Slug III, Samurai Shodown IV, The Last Blade, The King of Fighters '96, Fatal Fury Special, and Real Bout Fatal Fury Special at ~$5 a piece myself.

Big Tournament Golf and Super Baseball 2020. They're pretty cheap at $8 but I just play them via emulation from time to time. It'd be cool to have them on xbox though.

 

[ManaByte]

I’ve never seen the Hamster Neo Geo games go on sale on Xbox. Only on PS.

 

[StereoVsn]

Decent amount of BC games on sale too.

Ooh, going to have and go at what I haven’t picked up yet on physical or digital. I really wish they put the damn DLC for 360 games on sale as well.

 

[StereoVsn]

Couple of them were decent. I would be damned if I remember which ones .

They are half price frequently on Switch.

 

[dave_d]

Looks like Starfield is now on sale for $49.00.(I think the price is the same on Amazon.) Umm, is it worth about $50?(Seriously I haven't bought it yet, just wondering.)

 

[Torrent of Pork]

Picked up the remasters of Chrono Cross, Tales of Symphonia (apparently it's been fixed), and Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen (had it for Switch, but it was like 5 bucks).

$35 when all said and told.

I loved it, but most here will tell you that it punched their first born and kicked their pet.

If you liked other Bethesda games, then you're likely to enjoy this too.

Why would you buy it when its free on gamepass? Game is mediocre.

Little Goody Two Shoes $16

Terminator Resistance $37

Terminator Resistance Enhanced is on sale for only $20 (not with dlc). That seems like a good price but is this game really good? I'm on the fence. I have Robocop and I appreciate the graphics and how faithful to the movie it is but i dunno about Terminator ...is the gameplay super stiff like Robo?

Do it those are 3 of the best AAA games in recent memory.

adamsapple has played it. I havent yet. Heard good things though if youre a Terminator fan.

 

[Zuzu]

Just bought Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, Resident Evil Code Veronica and Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core.

Thinking about getting Resident Evil 0…maybe some other games as well.

I decided to get Resident Evil 0 along with Final Fantasy 7 (again), Chrono Cross (again), Dead Space 2 (again lol) and the Dead Space 2 story DLC which I didn’t know existed until recently but there we go (DLC wasn’t on sale but got it anyway).

 

[splattered]

Marvel Midnight Suns Legendary Edition worth it for 30 bucks?

 

[ManaByte]

Marvel Midnight Suns Legendary Edition worth it for 30 bucks?

Do you like XCom? It's Marvel XCom. Also gave me some nostalgia for the old TSR Marvel pen & paper RPG.

Liked it a lot.

 

[Pantz]

$1.49 Anthem Legion of Dawn Edition
There might be better things to do with your time though. It's kinda fun to fly around for a bit.

 

[adamsapple]

It's a fantastic game, yes it doesn't play like CoD but I liked it quite a bit. It's not as reverent towards the IP like Robocop is but it's still the best Terminator game in like forever.

 

[splattered]

Man these sales are dangerous... Picked up Marvel Midnight Suns Legendary, Guardians of the Galaxy Deluxe, No More Heroes Deluxe. Interested in so many others, trying to not spend ahhh. Still want Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT Shredder's Revenge and a bunch of other stuff. Also, what's the difference between Sega's Judgement and Lost Judgment? Are they different games? I have most of the Yakuza series but I haven't picked those up.

 

[jshackles]

Yes they are different games. It's a Yakuza / Like A Dragon spin-off series. Judgment is the first game in the series, and Lost Judgment is it's sequel.

Judgment is the first game, Lost Judgment is the direct sequel to it.

If you liked the Like a Dragon games, it's basically the same concept but with a different story and characters, and some unique 'detective themed' game play modifications (but you basically end up in fights very similar to the LaD games).

They're also very good.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Sonic Superstars is 42 bucks too. Its still a bit steep, I felt 29 bucks would be perfect. I am on the fence though, I also liked Frontiers a ton.

 

[Kings Field]

Mass Effect LE
Mass Effect Andromeda deluxe or whatever it’s called
killer Frequency
Monster Hunter Rise/Sunbreak


I now own MH rise/sunbreak on four different platforms

 

[ManaByte]

Have about $15 in rewards. Gonna pick up Phantom Liberty for $10.

 

[PanzerCute]

Sonic Superstars is 42 bucks too. Its still a bit steep, I felt 29 bucks would be perfect. I am on the fence though, I also liked Frontiers a ton.

They are completely different. I loved Frontiers and I also really like Superstars, but the latter is really an old school game, encompassing all you could find in Sonic 1 to CD. There are some great levels, neat ideas and the 2D sonic gameplay is there, but also know that it is quite short.

I bought the retail version for 30 on PS5 and it felt like the right price

 

[splattered]

Man so many games I wanna go back and pick up ugh. The Persona bundle is on sale but it includes the P3 portable version... Will it be worth it with the p3 remake coming out? Must resist spending so much money ahhh

The remake doesn't have the female MC route at all, so worth it as a secondary game in itself.
