3200 allards standing by.

Trine 2 or MotN, JSR, Dawnguard, some GoD and Dragonborn are what I'm aiming at. Let's see how much I'll be picking up.
 
My list if they are at least 50% off:

Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition
Zuma's Revenge!
The Simpsons™ Arcade Game
Kinect Party
Jet Set Radio
Fez
Dust: An Elysian Tail™
Deadlight
The Walking Dead Episode 2
The Walking Dead Episode 3
The Walking Dead Episode 4
The Walking Dead Episode 5

4.000 MS bucks for all I guess.

What is the consensus on Mark of the Ninja?

I think this is what i may pick up.

Assuming they are -50%

Kinect Party (free!)
Fez
Rayman® Origins
Trials Evolution
Jet Set Radio
Mark of a Ninja

Maybes

Joe Danger 2: The Movie
Trials HD
Borderlands 2 (depends on price)

I might pick up some Lego games depending if they are 640MSP here in Australia. Do i want Trials HD if I own Trials 2 on PC?

really? let's hope they have a 50% sale then, there's a ton of games I'd happily buy if they are 50% off.

Yup. That's when I bought Bastion.



As others have mentioned, I wait until XBLA games go on sale before buying them, always. The only exceptions have been The Simpsons and X-Men arcade games, and that was for pure nostalgia reasons. Had to play them right away. :)

I snagged a couple 1600 MS point cards for half off during BF. So I hope that's enough to cover Walking Dead, Mark of the Ninja, and Deadlight.

If everything is 50% off, and I highly doubt it, all these will be 5.680 allards.
Cheap MSPoints, here I go...

Fighting games list is a bit disappointing. Was hoping for Marvel Origins, GGXX, and JoJo.
Still is a nice sale overall.

Don't forget that if you're an Xbox Rewards member, you'll receive 100 points back for spending 2000 this month.

Awesome username, awesome tag, and a great methhead mugshot avatar. How have I not noticed you before now?

Hope they do something awesome with GoD sales this year.

The XBLA ones sounds promising though.

I think they are finally starting to learn that GoD games sell better when they are 50% off rather than 29.99 down to 24.99 or 19.99.

In the last couple months, I've seen a lot more $20 games cut down to $10.

Mark of the Ninja and maybe Crazy Taxi will be mine I think, pretty loaded on games to play as is, but I already got most of the good games for this year including Dust and Fez, those would be the only ones I'd go for with a full plate already.

$10 Vanquish on GoD would be great.

Wondering how low they will go with the older GoD...they should be around that I hope but judging by some of the previous sales,10 bucks might be expecting too much...59 dollar games will probably be 39 or 29 dollars...

Very good end of year sale depending on the pricing. :]

I'm looking at a couple of games which I wanted for a while such as:

Fez
Mark of the ninja
Dust: An Elysian Tale
Trials evolution

Someone wanted Beyond good & Evil, but it was on sale like last week up until tuesday (which I bought finally). :p

I'm hoping to see the ME3 DLC go on sale as well, but it's not a big priority. I'll be happy if these XBLA games are 50% off since they are still fairly new.
