Undead Nightmare Collection Normal Price: 1600 Discounted Price: 1200 Savings: 25%


So all of the DLC for Red Dead is 1200 Points?

From reading the links in the OP, are the two other items in the Collection are MP only basically? Good thing I looked I guess.

And yes, Carcassomnne is freaking amazing.

Is Carcassonne suppose to be very good?

Yes, I think Carcassonne is very good, but I like the board game too. I think it's a good representation of the board game. It contains the "River" expansion to the board game, though I usually play the original version of the game because I like it a little better than playing with the "River" tiles.

Claptrap Borderlands DLC and one of the Forza packs for me.

My homemade Borderlands GOTY edition is now complete! :lol
 
Buying RDR Undead Collection (Giving me RDR Complete for $25!) and Afterburner Climax today, will buy Limbo when it drops in price (Hoping for 600, will buy at 800, 1200 can kiss my ass.)

It's not confirmed, but I'd say it is official given that it is in legal copy that is on XBL right now.
You can't troll or mislead in the legal copy, I'd say they just let the cat out of the bag.

Sucks that Limbo seems to be the last deal released, though I assume that's because its the most desirable sale item for many.
 
Bullshit that they have to waste 6 days for 6 Sonic games, could have given a deal on all Sonic games in a single day.

Fuck you XBL.

Subscribed.

Looking forward to picking up some good stuff at a discounted price, specially Lara Croft.

They have all the clues to the daily deals up on the dashboard, any place has good guesses to what they all are?

As good as confirms Lara Croft tomorrow, if true.

Totally worth it as well.

I wish they would do some Games on Demand sales.

:lol Red Deads just gone up for £40!!!

Deserves it's own thread; MS lets improve Games on Demand by a lot.

I understand they probably have some say as well as publishers, but with Steam having so many deals why can't they?

Uh, they probably are doing that.

They're not doing an arcade game per day, you know. Today is all Red Dead DLC deals.

I think it's pretty weird that Banjo Tooie is on sale while Banjo Kazooie isn't.
That might be because Banjo-Kazooie was included with many Banjo-Kazooie N&B's so Banjo fans who own the first and the third game for 360 but also own the second one for N64 could potentially be led to buying the second game. On the other hands, a cheaper B-K1 could way better secure new fans :/.

Ok, I was thinking of Comic Jumper, but also possibly Super Meat Boy.

Anyway, re: Red Dead content... any of this like must-have?


Undead is great and is about 5 hours long. The other shit is multiplayer only.

Undead Nightmare is awesome. Well worth the money IMO.

I liked everything about Comic Jumper except the actual game element, which is the most important thing of course, haha. It's a funny game, but the game play itself is very "samey". I preferred Twisted Pixel's other games, especially 'Splosion Man.

Super Meat Boy is great though, if you like tough, but addictive old school platform games.

I've downloaded the demo for Meat Boy, but it seemed a bit floaty to me :/.

Bought Afterburner Climax, i forgot to buy it the last time it was on sale. Also bought Blazblue:CS discounted DLC.

Hope the daily deals have nice discounts also.
 
After Burner Climax
Guardian of Light
Undead Nightmare
Assuming Guardian of Light will be 800, so 1800 total.

And Bad Company 2 Vietnam of course.

hmm do want the undead nightmare collection but does anyone play rdr multi anymore?

still cant decide whether to get the dlc or disc even though the disc on has been on sale for $19.99 multiple times :lol

RDR like GTA:IV is always busy in terms of MP always get full servers and considering how many online modes the game has that's quite an achievement.

Yes, the controls are erratic, but still precise when needed. It is the best part about the game. If the controls were any different some of the later levels would be unbeatable
 
OK, so I looked up the Red Dead Wiki and the Liars&Cheats + Legends&Killers packs, and I'm tempted to grab both since they're about $10 total and I primarily played online.

It's cool they put multiplayer cards and dice in there, and also hardcore mode, which I assume disables auto-aim or something. Now just need to decide on that undead thing.

Zombies, though? It's been done...

One of the clues on the dashboard couldn't possibly be anything other than Hydro Thunder Hurricane, though it's not on CAG's list.

I saw some deals on Forza DLC for the holidays. Are those separate and not part of that sale? Are they still going on?

Oh god I hope I didn't miss out on the Forza DLC sales.

Yeah I was wondering about those too...

Maybe they can be included in the OP under a separate section? Hydrophobia got reduced to 800pts too even though it's not part of any sale but some people might be interested in it...

Shit, accidentally bought Toy Soldiers. They really need two confirmation screens. Strange how demos have this but hitting purchase automatic just buys it.

What's the difference between Undead Nightmare and Undead Nightmare Collection, (besides 600 MS :lol)?
Collection is a bundle with Undead plus the 2 multiplayer packs.

I hope all Mass Effect 2 DLC goes on sale. I just picked it up for $10 on Amazon last week after trying to hold out for the Ultimate Edition, but $10 was just too good of a deal.
