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.

Oh okay, makes sense. My account is American and I'm using it in Asia. I'll see if I can block my vpn and run. Don't have a 360 anymore. Purchasing for backwards compatibility through xbox.com.

 

[World SkiFree]

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?

Like others are saying, I would wait. I too own the 360 and don't plan to go One for awhile. I got the Fast and Furious/FH2 game for 360 and it was okay but I gather the One version is one of the all time greats.

 

[pizzacat]

Got dark souls 2 with some credit I had for like $12

Das it

 

[pr0cs]

I picked up midnight club, seemed like an easy sale at $4.
I will say it is REALLY hard to go back to 2009 360 games after playing on xbone and ps4 for the last while. Game is fun but ugly as sin now (published 2009 so I guess it's not surprising)

 

[explorer]

I picked up the entire season of Tales from Borderlands last night for $10! What a steal!

[koopathecat]

Just Geo Wars 3 for me.

Holding out for black friday/post xmas retail sales.

Is F&F more like the original Forza games with just races and no free roam?

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Is F&F more like the original Forza games with just races and no free roam?

No. F&F has free roam, but it's a subsection of the entire map available in FH2.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

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

Like I said, the game is still listed in the marketplace and available to buy. The RI thing didn't cause them to pull the game.

I would recommend it. It's not bad whatsoever. Inferior to the Xbone version yeah, but it's still a great game that actually has some differences to the Xbox One version so it's worth playing both.

 

[RPS37]

Picked up: Blood Dragon and Beyond Good and Evil HD.
Considering: Bully, Portal 2, Prince of Persia, and Red Dead.

Never played the first three, already played Portal 2 and Prince of Persia, already played and own Red Dead physical.

For those having similar issues like me, just had to use a VPN blocker and it worked.

Bully is worth it just wish it was xbox one compatible.

We have no idea what The Witcher 3 is going to be on sale for, do we? Would love to go digital, but Best Buy has the $24.99 deal going right now.

 

[Chris1]

It's 50% off on PC so I imagine it'll be around that on consoles too.

Nice. Was waiting on that one. Still hoping Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Mad Max get a digital sale tomorrow.

Is this any good? I know I can't go wrong for 2.50$ but I hate main AC games.
This looks a bit like Mark of the Ninja though, and it's much shorter so it shouldn't be boring as the main games.

 

[ambar_hitman]

Got Gears UE.

 

[BenjiGAF]

So, the current deals aren't going to disappear into the void when the new ones go up tonight/tomorrow, right? Still trying to make up my mind/work out my finances

 

[E92 M3]

There will be new ones tomorrow?

 

[EthanC]

There will be new ones tomorrow?

Yes. Major Nelson listed some of the games that will go on sale tonight. It's listed earlier in this thread.

 

[Kill3r7]

There will be new ones tomorrow?

Correct. They will post sometime tonight.

 

[BenjiGAF]

There will be new ones tomorrow?

I was under the impression that was the case, but I may be wrong. It has happened once or twice before.

Thanks folks

 

[Chris1]

New sales in ~8.5. We should be getting a minimum of 37 games on sale with 3 of them being Witcher 3, Rare Replay and Destiny TTK.

If steam sales are anything to go by, we should also see discounts on Ori and Ryse.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

I'm hoping for Dying Light and Mad Max. Will probably grab that AC China for $2.50.

Are these e-mail delivered? And do these count for the Xbox Rewards promo or do you have to actually buy them from the Xbox Store?

 

[ambar_hitman]

You get the code on amazon account and can redeem it manually on xbox site/console or by signing into XBL via Amazon account.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

They don't count. You actually have to buy them through XBL.

Thanks! Picked up the physical version of Gears for the same price so I can loan it to a friend when I'm done!

It'll be here Saturday so I'll still be able to snag the backwards compatible games!

 

[MauroNL]

Great that could be useful.

Ah bummer, I'll wait and see if both games go on sale tonight on XBL otherwise I'll dip on the Amazon prices.

 

[im_dany]

Rare Replay will be on sale on XBL 100%, it's one of the 3 games already announced for the weekend sales (along with Witcher 3 and Destiny TTK).

 

[Xbudz]

I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the Black Friday sales on Xbox, I assume they will be live tonight at 9pm PST / 12am EST.

 

[storafötter]

Edit: Meh Dark Souls 2 is cheaper on PC so ill avoid it here..

Forza Horizon 2 is tempting but not really a racing guy, but it seems like a good game for casual arcade racer fans.

 

[Jetman]

Need a good sale on Ori and Killer Instinct Season 1. How can they mark off 50% on Season 2 and not even touch 1?

 

[ryan299]

Yes It's really good especially for that price. I got it for 5 a few months back. So worth it.

I want Bully but there's still no world on bc for it.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

Mad Max digital codes are on sale for $30 on MS Store.

You get the code instantly in your email, so that's one off my BF wishlist.

 

[theDeeDubs]

One more down for me too! Just Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Divinity, and Tomb Raider (doubtful on this) left.

 

[dreamcastmaster]

I'm waiting on this too, already scooped up everything that I wanted so far.

 

[Chiaroscuro]

Need a good sale on Ori and Killer Instinct Season 1. How can they mark off 50% on Season 2 and not even touch 1?

Because people complained on the last sales that first only season 1 was on sale and later only the bundle season 1+2, and season 1 owners only wanted season 2.

Now.... People are never happy.

(granted they could put both seasons on sale, but season 1 was on sale more times than GTA games...)

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

NFS codes are $30 on MS Store too, and that's $6 cheaper than the XBL BF price.

 

[Chiaroscuro]

Mad Max digital codes are on sale for $30 on MS Store.

You get the code instantly in your email, so that's one off my BF wishlist.

If you are in US and don't mind discs, the physical version is $25 and you get a $10 gift card.

 

[theDeeDubs]

Wish the Microsoft store would match their physical deals on their digital codes.

 

[SkinnerSw33t]

If you are in US and don't mind discs, the physical version is $25 and you get a $10 gift card.

Yeah, a better deal no doubt. But I'm all digital.

 

[paragonpro]

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

Honestly it starts strong but drags on for far too long and after a while you will start to ask yourself why your continuing with the way the story turns out. Its pretty dumb
