Man, is it really? Don't exaggerate pls lol. I'm on the fence with that one but idk. From what I've seen it doesn't look all that special.

Avoid sanctum of slime. But yes it feels like a legit Ghostbusters movie

Not Sanctum of Slime.

Yes! It's freaking great, I approached it as "Well I'll try it but if I hate it my 6 year old will love it" and currently it's "Dad can I try, you've been playing the whole time".

Game is fucking legit Ghostbusters 3. Dan Ackroyd and Harold Ramis wrote it too! I can't say enough positive about it, I'm having a blast.

 

[witness]

Ghostbusters
The Orange Box
Portal 2

Never played Portal 2, Ghostbusters, or Episode 2 so I'm pretty excited.

I'm stuck at the part where the opera ghosts appear. Keep dying and it's pissing me off. I was surprised to see that Dan and Harold were involved with the writing but you can tell the game is high quality.

 

[Gaogaogao]

I remember hearing fable 2 was better than 3, and that people loved it.

That's the first time both crackdown has been on sale in a long time I think. Maybe the games will be BC today

 

[ZeoVGM]

Hey guys, does this sale end at 3 AM ET?

 

[bonchooski]

Oh please give me Crackdown 1&2 and Fable Anniversary as BC tomorrow and I'll die a happy man.

 

[GoxRx]

I bought Ghostbusters and Toy Story 3.

 

[Cels]

Wow, we still can't use our MS balance on 360 games when we buy from the web/Xbox One.

I'm not buying anything then, good job MS.

yes, it is stupid and has been this way ever since the conversion from MSP to local currency, nearly four years ago.

they obviously don't give a shit because they would have changed the system by now

 

[ZeoVGM]

I came back into the thread to say this. That's complete nonsense.

There is seriously no way to do that? Can I use my account balance to purchase the games on my 360?

 

[Naked Lunch]

I went a lil crazy picking up some games that always interested me over the years that I mostly wouldnt have picked up otherwise. I already owned many of the games on sale.

Strania - been wanting to get this for years, great game.
Triggerheart Excelica
Military Madness
Midway Arcade Origins - smashtv/total carnage player
Ghostbusters
E4: Every Extra Extend Extreme
Lumines Live!
Puzzle Quest 2 - my new bite size gaming addiction

Yes.

 

[PhantomZone]

That's how I do it, just connect my 360 console, purchase, turn off 360, connect xbox one and start downloading.

 

[Journey]

Racked up on some great ones. Tempted to get Flashback as well, I loved the original and this looks like a nice remake, but feedback looks bad, why only 3 stars? Has anyone played it?

 

[WordAssassin]

Ghostbusters
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Blue Dragon
Portal: Still Alive
Bomberman Battlefest
Fable II
Super Meat Boy

I now have more games than will fit on my XBO. Is it as easy to put in a new HD as it is on a PS4?

Edit: Oh shit never mind, it uses External HDs? Does anyone know if I have an external I use with my Wii U, can I also store XBO games on there?

 

[Defect]

Ghostbusters
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Blue Dragon
Portal: Still Alive
Bomberman Battlefest

You can plug in multiple external hdd's

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Sale is still up.

Which is good. Hopefully it'll stay up till Midnight Pacific. Though who knows maybe it'll be like Best Buy and end at 1 AM Eastern.

I'll post my list after I'm absolutely sure I'm not getting anything else. I went kind of crazy.

Ghostbusters
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Blue Dragon
Portal: Still Alive
Bomberman Battlefest
Fable II
Super Meat Boy

No the Wii U external drives are formatted to only allow use with Wii U and not something else simultaneously.

Likewise if you want to store game on an external drive on Xbox One it'll be formatted to only work on Xbox One and nothing else either.

Of course you can return both to regular drives but you would have to delete off all the downloads on both.

Shit. Is it possible to partition the HD and format one partition to Wii U and the other to XBO?

I might not need to do any of this if I can find my HD after I finish moving but The Wii U drive I have is huge and as far as I know there aren't many games on it as is so if I could partition it that'd be sweet.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

You win, Xbox.

Battlestations: Midway
Armored Assault 2
Far Cry 3
Lego Pirates

I own three of these on disk already, but #DigitalFuture.

Damn it.

 

[Golgo 13]

I kinda want Far Cry 3 again but remember that shit being choppy as fuck on 360. Someone talk me into it

 

[Qwark]

Is Undead Nightmare on sale? I have the base game, but not the DLC so I'm considering it. It's listed as $4.99 but I'm not sure if that's sale price or regular price.

 

[VanCityGamer]

I'm quite happy with how I did on this sale. I haven't played any of the games I bought:

Beyond Good & Evil HD $3.29
de Blob 2 $2.99
Mirror's Edge $1.63
Monkey Island $2.49
Monkey Island 2 $2.49
Outland $3.29
The Orange Box $4.99

Total: $21.17
for 7 games plus The Orange Box has multiple games in it

 

[Dervius]

Picked up:

Braid
Limbo
RAGE
Crackdown 2 (hopefully)

Currently not letting me buy CD2.

Was thinking about the L4D games but none of my coop buddies seem fussed, and I have Warhammer Vermintide which is v similar.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

This sale kinda reminds me of the old Steam sales when they were still good and you could pick up a bunch of great games for $2.50 apiece. I bought too many games on impulse back then too.

 

[naitosan]

Man, is it really? Don't exaggerate pls lol. I'm on the fence with that one but idk. From what I've seen it doesn't look all that special.

In our world, Sanctum of Slime doesn't exist.

Get Ghostbusters: The Video Game because it's Ghostbusters 3!

Here's a bit from game's wiki:

Many of the principal cast members from the films were involved in the game's production. Each of the actors who portrayed the Ghostbusters in the films (Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, and Ernie Hudson) lent their voices and likenesses to the in-game characters. Aykroyd and Ramis, who wrote the films, also aided in script doctoring for the game. Other film cast members such as William Atherton, Brian Doyle-Murray, and Annie Potts lent their voices and likenesses to the game's characters as well. Max von Sydow also reprised the voice of Vigo the Carpathian. Ghostbusters: The Video Game also contains the soundtrack from the original Ghostbusters film along with various characters, locations, and props featured in the films. Dan Aykroyd has said, "This is essentially the third movie."

Buy it!

Excellent sale. Spent way too much.

Edit:

Now I'm done.

 

[poodaddy]

I keep wondering if I should get Left For Dead 2 or not; the wife and I had amazing times playing that back in the day but we don't have the time to play together much these days. Anyone mind commenting on how active the community for the game online is these days?

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Is Lumines live still worth it at $2.50?

Seems like most of it is done through add on packs that don't go on sale.

 

[PhantomThief]

Yes there is still good content there for 2.50

 

[AlexFlame116]

Well I wasn't able to get anything. I finally got my paycheck on Thursday and my bank locks my account cause of suspected fraud. No change still. They said to wait til the 30th.

I'm so upset. I wanted to buy a couple of things from this sale and now I won't be able to get anything.

[splattered]

[Madrugador]

Last minute buy, I got Skate 3. Heard Gaf say it's great so I'm going to trust you guys with this one.

[Sober]

I did a bad thing and bought BLOPS2 and the season pass.

 

[jelly]

Alice Madness Returns, completed the first level, my god that took ages and it didn't really mix things up well. Platforming is simple and okay. I think I'm just digging Alice's outfit changes and the scenery. Battles are a little repetitive but the new area gave me another weapon. Is hack and slash I suppose.
