Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
So did they just forget to discount Doom? Or I am missing something here? Fucking hell.

Anyways so far I bought BF1 and TF2 collection for $85 CAD

Download speeds went to shit. I should have TF2 easly downloaded in 45 minutes, after 90 minutes I'm at 35% lol
I DL'ed Hitman and Far Cry last night at around 130-150 mb/s?

Probably in the weekend deals. Check back tomorrow night.
 
Is hitman worth it ? and wheres the cheapest ?

100% worth it, i play on pc but its my GOTY. Its pretty much 50% off everywhere for the full season 1 - xbox digital, psn digital, steam, amazon, etc.

The disc version is not out till end of january so if you want to play now you can only play the digital version.

Looks like the Witcher 3 Complete Edition got a price correction for some reason. It's now $29.99 with Gold in stead of $25.00 it was when the sale started. Weird.

Nabbed ReCore for $15US which converted to $21AU. Awesome.

It even allowed me to use PayPal via the webstore which it never used. Gave my disc copy to my brother.
 
Strange - usually prices between PSN and XBL are the same for 3rd party titles during Black Friday. But it looks like this time around, Mad Max is only $8 on PSN while it's $12 on Xbox Live.

Does this ordinarily happen?
In Europe Xbox prices are terrible most of the time compared the US Xbox Store or competing digital stores like PSN. The price differences are insane sometimes and even EA prices are often cheaper on PSN than on XBL with EA Access discount.

I mean Wtf is this?

Arkham Knight Premium Edition (Gold / PS+)
16 USD in the US
55 Euro in Europe
20 Euro in Europe on PSN

In Europe you can buy the better versions for less if you wait for sale prices and own both consoles. I noticed this months ago.

It's also not a third party problem. First party games like Kinect Sports Rivals are 10 USD, compared to 23 Euro.

Because of GAF, I just picked up Deus Ex MD and Hitman First season from BF sale on Xbox Store. Good price, £22 each!

Don't know when I'll play though, still trying to get through Gears 4, Witcher BW, GTA5, FH3 and Quantum Break

Just visited the European Microsoft Store, and it looks like Black Friday sales will be active in 12 hours from now. The US just opened the sales a few days earlier.

Anyone knows if the Capcom Arcade Cabinet really includes everything and you don't need any extra purchases? And are the games good ports/emulations?
Mmm I also may buy Inside.

You need to buy the base game AND the All in One pack. It's a solid compilation of older Capcom games.

You can't pay with PayPal alone anymore. Buy Xbox credit from amazon.com, then go back to the store, and change payment method. (I'm from Germany as well and just bought stuff yesterday like this).

I added my paypal payment option when they merged both stores. Not sure if that's why it worked for me.

It somehow worked for me. No clue why.

Thinking about getting Gears of War 4, but my wallet will cry.

I literally just bought it from the US Store there using paypal.

I'm situated in the UK and have a US postal address setup on my US wallet and it let me use Paypal with a card that has a UK billing address.

Is it possible to redeem a US gift card on the Xbone console ?

Doesn't seem to work on the website anymore :/

Yeah I had the same problem the other day, it wouldn't let me redeem it on the web store when changing region.

Change the location on your console to the US and then go to the game and you want to buy and select redeem code and it will work.

Couldn't pass on ReCore @ $15 on MS Store. Worked with my Brazilian PayPal account and CC as well, I was suprised.
