Any impressions on Lifeless Planet? I only see a few posts from player through searching GAF.

I really liked it. It's a fine exploration game with a neat setting. No combat, though, if that's an issue. Recommended.

Mirror's Edge on sale again. Yaas EA.

 

[Falchion]

That's because they're both coming to games with gold the next two months.

I want this to happen so hard.

So why can't I use Microsoft Account currency on xbox.com? Stupid as hell.

Bulletstorm deal!! Best shooter of its release year by far. And since it's fucked on PC thanks to Games for Windows Live, my only option is 360.

Buying it even though it's not confirmed for back-compat yet!

There's a way to get the games for Windows live stiff fixed on it. Took me awhile but I got the game running

I can do that. Maybe your store page is set to the wrong region?

You can for Xbox One games. You can't for 360 games.

starts off mysterious enough but takes too long to finish for what it is and botches the end with crazy Lovecraft-type nonsense.

Starts great and mysterious.....then it fucking drags on way toooo long

 

[Muzy72]

Well shit, I thought Rare Replay wasn't on sale so I went ahead and just bought it, but apparently it will later. Any way Xbox support will help me or am I fucked.

 

[jesu]

Probably not considered part of this sale, but The Elder Scrolls Online will be 60% off this weekend on Xbox One, PS4, and PC. Plus there's a Black Friday crown store pack, and sales on Crowns.

Hmm I've not even started ESO yet but I'm tempted to get the 3000 crowns deal and the Black Fredas Special.

 

[World SkiFree]

I'm tempted by midnight club La but the reviews say it's very punishing which sounds pretty bad for a racing type game

I got it on sale a while back. I have only played a couple of hours but it is very fun and worth the sale price. I need to start playing it again.

I play many of my FPSes on PC but I picked up Bulletstorm during a previous 360 sale and have really enjoyed it on the platform. I'm about halfway through the campaign.

 

[fierce1289]

Are there any sales on season passes with this? I can't seem to find anything about it.

 

[sweetvar26]

I tried to purchase Dungeon Siege 3 through Games with Gold and for some reason I'm getting an error saying the transaction can't be processed.

Anyone else have issues buying the game/games through their laptop?

 

[IfAllElseFales]

just went to Xbox.com to check on the deals and for some reason its in Russian or something? Anyway to fix this? (I'm from the US)

There's a Change Locale link in the lower left-hand corner of the page.

Just found it, not sure how that changed on me, thanks!

 

[sheamus]

This might sound like a small gripe with the Xbox one but why the hell don't they have a cart system

you're right, it is small & it annoys the hell out of me too

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

Thanks for all the replies on Lifeless Planet! I'm working those impressions into my consideration.

They really need to redo their storefront on their web store. It's so bad.

 

[LordBaztion]

Is there zero of Kingdoms of Amalur coming to BC, isn't it?

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Is there zero of Kingdoms of Amalur coming to BC, isn't it?

Why wouldn't it? If the game is still for sale in the marketplace then it has as good a chance as any game.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Sure is!

Nice, I might pick it up. Easy to find people that will play this online with, not a game I want to play alone I think.

 

[LordBaztion]

I was saying because of the problem with the State of Rhode Island.

 

[Kama_1082]

How large is the borderlands pack download?

 

[rezn0r]

How large is the borderlands pack download?

Xbox 360 queue shows it as 3.30GB - I'm stuck at work, not downloading it to 360, and I'm not sure on the status of DLC included that was talked about earlier. But this says 3.30GB.

 

[MulderYuffie]

Really hoping these 360 deals end up being backwards compatible.


Especially for Bully *crosses fingers*

 

[SOLDIER]

Question for Killer Instinct owners: if I already own TJ Combo from the Season 1 promotion, then wouldn't it be cheaper if I just bought the remaining individual fighters instead of the Season 2 Combo Breaker?

I know the $20 version includes extra costumes and other useless accessories, but what does the Combo Breaker pack include beyond the characters?

 

[Steverulez]

I bought Forza Horizon 2 and then got Resident Evil 4 from the weekly sale... I need to load up a bit more credit to get some more 360 titles too

 

[MrBlonde]

I just bought need for speed, ill wait till tomorrow to play since I read there will be a good update. That might be it until the end of the year, already cant keep up with my games but ill check the new deals this weekend.

 

[qko]

So out of funds until the 30th. Hopefully I don't blow my cash all at once on the 30th with whatever deals may pop up for Cyber Monday.

 

[Gordon0Freeman]

Having a hard time choosing between Fallout 4 and The Witcher 3. I love vast open worlds with lots of shit to do but I haven't played either series due to the massive amount of time I usually spend on shooters! Would Fallout be my best bet? Although The Witcher 3 going on sale on the 27th does sound tempting....

 

[mace999]

Yes, I had the same issue. I think it's because my profile is set in the UK but my Gold was bought in US store. I think that is not a problem for One games but not for 360 games although I managed to get Dirt 3 ok?!?

Fallout is probably easier to play, but The Witcher probably has the better world/story experience.

Get Witcher 3 now, as it's been polished through all of it's patches. Get Fallout 4 when you're done that, as it will be cheaper, and it will be patched.

Now that you mention it, the lack of a cart is really bad.
How is MGS 5 for $45? Already have $25 on my account.

 

[hawk2025]

The online store is quite literally a giant list of games to sort through. Crazy stuff.

Is it too crazy to buy another version of Dark Souls 2 just to play it on a different platform?

 

[Kill3r7]

If you don't mind owning a physical copy BB will have the game for $35 (GCU $27.99).

Go with The Witcher 3. Fallout 4 as fun as well, but it's nothing mindblowing. It's pretty much Fallout 3-2 and you wouldn't be missing anything by waiting for bug fixes and patches. TW3 would also be a good palette cleanser after playing all those shooters and Fallout 4's shooting mechanics, while passable are likely to disappoint a hardcore FPS player.

I'm having a tough time deciding whether to buy Forza Horizon 2 for the 360 or not. I really liked the original but I don't see myself buying an XBO for a long time. Anyone here own this and can recommend it?

I'll probably do that. Started buy physical again after Targets B2G1, miss owning the disc.

I didn't have trouble buying Dirt 3 couple of weeks ago, however I'm having issues with Dungeon Siege 3.

How did you end up getting Dungeon Siege 3?

 

[EvilAlPacino]

Great game and usually I dont get into games like Lifeless Planet. Very creepy since the planet is deserted.

Just wait till you get the XBO - you dont want to ruin that masterpiece playing the gimped version. Once you do get XBO, if its a while from now, Horizon 2 will be dirt cheap.

What region are you using your 360 in? Mine is a uk account and Im using it in China so I get those errors on some games because of distribution rights. I.can download onto my account on xbox.com but only if I vpn to the uk.

I heard it's pretty bad and not even as good as the first one on 360, while the X1 version is great.
