Ultimate Xbox Sale

Taken from Polygon:

Microsoft's Ultimate Xbox Sale is due to begin later this week, with leaked details showing significant deals on big name games.

Information leaked at the weekend shows deals onHalo: The Master Chief Collection, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, Alien: Isolation, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Destiny, The Crewand more, with savings of up to 60 percent for Xbox Gold members via the online Xbox Store.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection is listed at a 25 percent discount, or 60 percent for Gold members. Destiny will be down 33 percent for everyone. Killer Instinct Complete Collection is listed at a 33 percent discount, or 40 percent for Gold members.

The leaked information did not include final prices and full details have yet to be confirmed by Microsoft. You can get a full look at the leaked information here. However, some games are already showing lower prices on individual pages on the Xbox Store. Destinyis down to $40.19 while Call of Duty: Advanced Warfareis also down in price. It's definitely work having a scout around, if you have a game in mind and it is mentioned in the leaked document.

Although the Ultimate Xbox Sale, which includes Xbox One and Xbox 360 games, is not due to begin until Wednesday Feb. 17, running through Feb. 23, one offer has already started. Lords of the Fallen, a fantasy action game released by Bandai Namco is listed at $9 for Gold members and $15 generally, down from $59.99. The German-developed game was released in 2014, and received a 7.5 review on Polygon.

Other deals I can disclose right now are for example: 15 bucks for Sniper Elite 3, 8 bucks for Trials Fusion, Alien Isolation and Watch Dogs for less than 30 bucks, 60% off Master Chief Collection and 80% off Kinect Sports Rivals and MANY more.

I can't argue with $9....That's a good price for Lords of the fallen (68/100 metascore).

I'm interested in any games on sale that aren't multiplats. Last week's deals were awful, so I'm glad they are doing deals. I just gotta find the right one for me.

My Xbone is for typically for exclusives. Hopefully the deal will have some, ANY games that I don't own that are exclusive that I have my eye on. The games in the article above all seemed like older multiplats I already bought (some cheaper during Black Friday from the looks of it). Still, for those that can take advantage, have fun. I don't own Lords so I might bite at that price. I'm not sure though...

Thanks for the heads up in any case.

EDIT: Lords of the Fallen was taken down at light speed. It was a mistake price sitting at full $59.99 right now:

Lords of the Fallen is definitely worth 9 dollars.

Very nice, I will pick up a couple for sure.

may just pick up Lords of the Fallen

I've just bought Lords of the Fallen - couldn't resist and it's rated 73 on PC because their community appreciates quality games more. Likewise for undercooked titles like Evil Within which got harsher 68 on PC on metacritic.

Evil Within's backlash had more to do with a poor port job than the actual quality of the game, of which easily spanks the shit out of poor man's Dark Souls 2. I say Dark Souls 2, because that's the lame one in the series.

That and you know the PS4 version getting way more reviews than the PC version, for both games.

LoF is easily worth $20, let alone $9. Grab it.

Is the gears 3 season pass worth it?

If you really like gears I mean..

Depend's on the population playing Gears 3 these days. I haven't played gears 3 since 2 years ago when I still had an Xbox 360. But I played it religiously everyday lol. If the community is still there, then by all means, grab the season pass.

Yeah, I was the same. For me, GeoW3 never captured the feeling of GeoW 2's camaraderie (a lot of party chat with randoms back then, all of us wannabe Captain America strategists), but I did have fun with GeoW3 all the same rushing or holding back.

I would be very apprehensive to buy a season pass at this late though. I would imagine the community is shrinking...but like you I haven't played it in a few years.

Wowsa Steam and PC's are like a aging dinosaurs

looks like Xbox can offer lower prices on multiplats than even sony and valve

holy moly get with the program steam give these kinda prices on triple AAA's or get out microsoft is evolving holy crap steam get on its level GET ON THE LEVEL PLZZZ

This and the Scream Ride demo tell me that MS is worried about the buyers remorse that'll be settling in among Christmas bundle buyers by now.

I TOLD YOU ABOUT DROUGHTS

I TOLD YOU BRO

:p

Wow already have Lords of the Fallen but that is such a steal at 9$

I was kinda hoping Dragon Age: Inq would be on that sale list. I'll have to fire up ole Green and take a look.

I just saw this too when I went back to dash. Basically got it free, I just got my XBL Rewards for $5.25 and another $5 from my Bing rewards, so enough to cover the $9, and $1.25 to spare.

I was about to get this game for when I was done with Dying Light. GameStop has it for $40 and other stores would have price matched it, but I've decided to go digital for the Xbox One lately, so I held off on getting it. I saw a while back they had Lords of the Fallen for $35 (I think) through a special, thought they'd probably give it another sale soon, but damn, didn't think $9.

Anyhow, there's other decent savings. They have Alien Isolation for $24, well worth it. I saw Watch Dogs for $24 though I've no real desire to play it, nobody really seemed enthralled with it after release and nobody talks about it anymore. They have Forza 5 complete edition for $30 (not my cup of tea but I'll jump on a Horizons 2 deal if something similar comes along), and they have Sniper Elite III for $10, thinking about that one since I never played a Sniper Elite game before.

Why aren't people saying "But but, you pay for those discounts!!"

I've been waiting for a drop in price for this game. ... And that's a pretty Damn big drop in price

9 dollar already? pass.

Same thing with PSN. There are regular discounts and PS+ discounts which are even deeper. Spoken like a true ignoramus.

Might pick up forza 5.

Definitely getting the $55 telltale collection

60% off for a broken game months later? give it for free already

Nice price tag.

I really feel like the ball was dropped with Judgment. Hopefully the next Gears game can capture some of the magic the first 3 had. Apparently they brought on the old producer to make Gears 4 feel more old school.

Me too. I've seem DA at $20 off, still hoping for $30+. I may get Lords of the Fallen though.

Im not a gold member.... I doubt I'l get any good deals.

I didn't know Bandai Namco published Lords of Fallen. That's pretty funny.

Lol paying for discounts...that reminds me, my PS+ subscription lapsed

god damn, you are such a whiner

Ive looked at some clips and its hard to imagine a bad investment at only $9. Sold.

Sounds like some nice deals. Great to see decent sales coming to the consoles, bit by bit.

Forgot i had lords of fallen till this... Got it for 20something during steam sale. Played for like 2 To 3 hrs then i got sidetracked. good game tho well worth $9. Prob get back into it after fc4, dying light, da i,,,, dang. That seems like a long ways away

Nice. Haven't switched on my XBone for a while. I got Lords of the Fallen, Styx and Kinect Sports Rivals for the giggles. Also considered Sniper Elite 3 but there seems to be an Ultimate Edition coming up with all DLC. Anybody played any sort of DLC for Sniper Elite 3? Is it worth it?

@Salt_The_Fries: was it a mistake??! lord of fallen was 9 dollars earlier now it back to 59.99!! well atleast on the xbox website :(

This sooooooooooooo Much

@lostrib: don't see the master chief collection on sale .wanted to get it so I could play all the single player modes .but don't wanna spend over 30 bucks

@Salt_The_Fries: They appreciate a poor man's Dark Souls more?

@jg4xchamp:

Evil within is an average game.

I disagree, but even then it still would be more worthy of a spin than poor man's Dark Souls 2.

I'm gonna nab a freebie Dark Souls 2 remaster as a reviewer's copy anyway :3 And I'm playing Evil Within now, and I'm quite enjoying it, but that may change, since I'm about to finish chapter 2, but I've really liked it so far, like a mix of Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare (I doubt many of you have played it) and Alan Wake (less so).

I think it gets better from that point. It's got super rough edges - the black bars and added nothing, that game engine blows, and a few of his "figure it out" scenarios are kind of not logical, at least I wouldn't have thought of doing that. Like the solution for the invisible enemies isn't something I would have considered, but that game does the RE4 thing of throwing scenarios at you and enemies that you see for that chapter and never see again. Which I really dig, has legit tougher sequences, and all around dem headshots feel so good.

Chapter 11-12 are doo-doo butter, and then the game sort of limps to a finish, but all around I enjoy it as a shooter. Modern TPS games just make a lot of what Evil Within does look refreshing in comparison, in a lot of ways a more "polished" version of The Evil Within is what Resident Evil 5 and 6 should have been.

@Salt_The_Fries: Dude, your title doesn't seem correct? You may want to change the Lords of the Fallen $9 thing...

Lords of the Fallen is full price from what I saw. I just checked my Xbone and it's $59.99.
