MGSV is tempting but my backlog is already so full. Completely awful deals otherwise (though at this point there's nothing left aside from Sunset Overdrive I'm interested in, unless something's insanely cheap).

No but I can bring my game to a friend's house and play it without having to download the whole game from Xbox Live. At least with a disc, I don't have to download 50 GBs.
Well you can play at the same time with digital and take it to your friends house on a portable hard drive if you want
 
this comes with the original KI 1 and 2 right?

id like to add that i probably wont have live for awhile and plan on playing KI locally alot until so

i've played alot locally still real fun (new update adding lots of new shit). The best game on xbox one period.

So you and your friend can't play it at the same time on your own Xboxes in your own homes?

Bummer.

OMG this is disturbing
 
Is kinect sports rivals any good?

if you play with your Girlfriend/ SO or some friends it can be pretty good. 7/10 game i think but there isn't much content, really relies on friends to keep it fun.

Fantasia is honestly the best kinect title ever and if you want a kinect game then I would highly recommend it.

This shit is so played out in every single sale thread. Nothing short of FH2+MCC+SO for 30 bucks would make some people happy.

People think that unless games are cheaper than they've ever been on any store/channel the deals are "awful"

Compared to what Steam sales have trained people to expect... yeah this aren't great.

light on content. disappointed it hasnt received any content sports packs. that said, there is some fun to be had with whats there. tennis is very good, wall climbing can be competitive, and bowling is quite fun. price seems okay to me.
 
Ground Zeroes for $6.60? Don't mind if I do.

And what a surprise, the UK price just so happens to be £6.60.

These 1:1 conversions are a goddamn joke. Sure I can get it from the US store and I probably would if I didn't already have it on PS4, but this method of converting prices is ridiculous.

I never buy anything on British stores on anything,Origin,Xbox or PS4. The US or India prices are so much better.

The sheer volume of content on Steam, as well as the number of potential buyers, are really incomparable. There's nothing in the first round for me, because I already have everything I want (in digital form) from that list, but it would be ridiculous to claim that it's not a good sale.

Ground Zeroes seems like a bargain to me. Does anyone know if PS + will have the same deal? Because I am buying MGSV on the PS4 I would like to get that additional content for owning both games.... =P

and do people still play titanfall? I always wanted to get this game... but the online only multiplayer kind of turned it down for me...

I only do Digital on Xbox One, and for that I want Forza Horizon 2. I am kicking myself for having the Master Chief Collection in physical form >.<

Battlefield 4™ Premium Edition $59.99 $30.00

For all of the shit that this game went through this year (and last year) it's still not worth $30 bucks for the whole package. (Maybe because I already bought it once on legacy consoles.)

Battlefield 4 and Halo: MCC both have made me rethink my buying habits for multiplayer games. I am shocked at how little these game's publishers put into making up for these huge missteps in debuting their games. Both publishers saw these incidents as nothing more than bumps in the road and offered nothing of value to their users to apologize for terrible service. These are the people that you want to satisfy. The day one fans.

It's not a good sale.

CoD: Ghosts for $30? Yea, ok.

It's... ok. I'd say "competent". There's nothing really wrong with the game, everything is well done and polished, but the game doesn't have the charm of the previous episodes. It's trying to focus on competition with members of your friend list rather than doing a party game, so if you know people playing it it can be interesting.

Keep going back and forth on Wolfenstein. I have about $26 in MS space bucks earned so the game would be $4 out of pocket. But I've been burned by GAF console recommendations quite a few times the last few years... I was saving it for either DA:I DLC or a big discount on the Witcher which ,ironically, has been pushed back.

So is Wolfy worth it or was it summertime thirst that had people loving it?

Absolutely worth it. Fantastic gunplay, reasonably engaging story, good level design, exceptional gameplay.

It's a genuinely fantastic game and definitely worth checking out.
 
Wow, I feel like in the past their year end sale was only 12 days, instead of what I assume will be 15.

Obviously the better deals are on 360, but a few decent ones on XB1. I'm hoping for some nice daily deals. I really want to like fighting games, cause that KI deal is calling me - but I usually tend to bore of them after awhile.

I'll be buying Dragon Age after Christmas regardless if it's on sale or not, so it'd be nice if there was a daily discount on that. I'd also bite on any sale on Alien: Isolation.
