Am I losing too much on buying Rainbow Six Siege without the Season Pass?

Also, how manageable is the game for someone who plays solo and without a mic? I'm tempted but I don't want to waste my cash. :/

Season pass offers early access to Operators as they are released. It also grants you access to some exclusive cosmetic items. There is NO content that actually matters locked behind the season pass. All operators can be purchased with a in game currency earned from just simply playing the game. All maps are free day one to every player, so there will never be community splitting content. They also just confirmed they are working on Season 2 and already have a road map in place, this game is going nowhere.

It is though a very tactical team oriented mp game. So never talking might upset certain teams especially if its a 2v2 and your teammate really needs to communicate with you. If you can maybe get a mic I will say that R6 Siege is honestly one of the best true tactical shooters to come out in many years on consoles. I am a former SOCOM addict and this is the first game to scratch the itch in over 12 years.
 
How much is Prototype in Canadian Dollars? It's tempting, but I don't want to spend too much.

The only one I haven't played is Prototype 2, and I didn't love the first.

Gonna think this over. Got a mic but my spoken English is horrible and I don't want to bother people trying to decipher it, that and the fact that I avoid grouping up to play with other players.

The stuff about the season pass is great though, so I might give it a try. More game should be like this and Titanfall 2.
 
Titan fall 2 or battlefield 1?

I might grab Rare Replay if I don't find a cheaper physical copy. Seems like an insane value even if I'm not really interested in most games in the package. Hoped for cheap D4, but that might still happen. Any must-have BC 360 titles? I have RDR already btw. :)
 
Does Warner hate Xbox players in Europe?

Example:

Mad Max
11.99 USD, 41.99 €
Lego Jurassic Park
10.00 USD, 30.00 €
Arkham Knight Premium Edition
16.00 USD, 55.00 €
...

Picked up.....

Carmageddon
Far Cry Primal
Deus Ex
Xcom 2

Tempted to get......

Mafia 3, but the price is still more than physical and the reception of the game wasn't great.
Titanfall 2, good price, but it would be pretty much soley for the single player portion, as I am not that interested in MP.

Microsoft chat support just refunded me for Titanfall 2 Deluxe (bought on launch day for $99) so that I could get Battlefield 1 - Titanfall 2 Deluxe Bundle for $85.

So basically, MS just gave me Battlefield 1 and $15..

Hyped.

Is Mankind Divided any good?

I thought Human Revolution was mediocre past the very first hub world (I hate that there was only one hub, and you left it quickly).

I loved Invisible War

Is Battlefield1 campaign any good? I don't play MP shooters and I've heard enough praise for Titanfall 2 campaign. I'm just not sure to buy this bundle or Titanfall 2 alone.

Some highs and lows but the presentation wow factor is massive. Some crazy stuff mixed with poignant moments. Not a long campaign but gives Dice a good base to make something truly amazing going forward.

Oh man I feel bad my dad bought Battlefield 1 yesterday on XBL... I wonder if he can get the difference refunded?

I know I can't really complain, but I always feel a bit shitty when they discount games this quickly after release. I bought Titanfall 2 for £55 like two weeks ago.

Ah well, suppose it helps the devs.

Gonna pick up Black Ops 1, Dark Souls and Hitman from this sale. Is there alot of people playing online for Rainbox Six Siege on xbox? May look into that as well, but I heard that mostly everything there is online so wanna make sure people are still around since the game has been out for a bit.



I would have hoped they made MW2 BC before MW3 lol. >_>
 
• Bully Scholarship Edition - $14.99 > $7.49
• Dark Souls - $19.99 > $4.99 Backwards Compatible

🤔 Bully has been $2-$3 every year or for every sale over the past few years, bully about to be unleashed on BC 👀

Dark souls 1 for $5 is an awesome price , maybe I can finally beat it :D
 
Inside is a great game, but it's quite short and has zero replayability.

So depends what you're after really.

I'm a budget gamer, but also low on time. I loved Life is Strange, LIMBO, Tomb Raider 2013, and enjoyed the newest Thief... that's about it for story-based games for me this gen.

Replayability isn't really a concern.

Contact customer support via chat - I did the same exact thing, and last night it only took me about 15 minutes to get my TItanfall 2 digital purchase refunded so I could rebuy at sale price.

Hitman's story is pretty lackluster

It's really just good for the gameplay.

Would they refund if I bought the regular edition so that I could upgrade? How is their support for refunds in general?
