Lee Bradley

It's day eight of the 12 Days Of Xbox Deals and today it's Halo Reach's turn to get discounted. Not just the game either. Along with a bunch of money off of Reach, Microsoft is also offering a 50% saving on all of the game's map packs, themes and avatar items. So if you haven't yet tested out Bungie's Halo swansong, or any of its satellite goodies, then now is your chance. 

I'm so full of turkey and turkey leftovers and turkey sandwiches that I can barely type. Full list is below.

Halo Reach Noble Map Pack - 400 MSP

Halo Reach Defiant Map Pack - 400 MSP

Halo Reach full game download - Varies by region

Halo Reach Anchor 9 Premium Theme - 120 MSP

Halo: Reach Noble Team Theme - 120 MSP

Halo Energy Sword Prop - 120 MSP

Halo: Reach Kat Spartan 320 Armor Male - 200 MSP

Halo: Reach Kat Spartan 320 Armor Female - 200 MSP

  • Why only Kats armor?! Why not the rest of Noble team? Also, does anyone know if those two themes are any good? Either of them worth getting?
  • @1 there is a channel on youtube that litterally almost haves every theme with it for a preview for you to watch (sorry but forgot the channel name)
  • @1 I was wondering the same.. I brought both map packs and the energy sword to go with my Master Chief armor :p
  • one of the themes was free while back was pretty nice but since dash board update aint got the same effect...i aint started this yet o well
  • Meh.. I've been halo reached out since 2010.. Bring on Halo 4!
  • These are just getting worse :(
  • Im gonna shoot the next person thats gonna post a complaining comment on these daily deals
  • @1 The Anchor 9 theme is worth the getting, the other one is a bit boring. Any Halo fan would have most of this stuff already, its a very odd special to have this late in a games life.
  • If you want to have a free Sonic the hedgehog avatar outfit(only works on female avatars) to go with the sonic sales tomorow, send a message why you think you deserve it. Nobody wanted it last time. My wife doesnt want it, and I aint gonna use a female avatar. So i got a spare code for FREE! There must be someone out there who wants it right?? I got all the halo stuff already. Many people got halo for christmas probably, so they can now still get the cheap maps. I dont see the problem. Just wondering what the deal of the week is now.
  • @1 & 2 http://www.youtube.com/user/ThemeXbox ThemeXbox
  • The sonic avatar outfit is no longer available. Samantha**** has send me a message and she will receive the free sonic avatar outfit. Dont send me messages about it anymore.
  • @9 DOTW this week is all 10 Family Game Night games for 400MSP (50% off) and Full House Poker for 480MSP
  • "full game varies by region" ... Shouldn't make a difference if its in America or UK .. You can still buy it with microsoft points...so why not set the Microsoft points cheaper ?
  • @9: I also have a female super sonic avatar thingy if anyone wants it.
  • @13 in MSP it's down from 3200 to 2400 (25% off)
  • Halo Reach: $29.99 US or £37.49? Fuck right off.
  • Gonna pick up defiant just so i can boost it to max g again.. Shit deals
  • #12 I am pissed off big time if thats DOTW. I got Full House Poker last month for 400MSP. Shitty deals this month from Microsoft. All the thanks we get for being loyal customers. cheers
  • Agreed the complaining, pissing, and moaning about deals is rather trollish and ass hat lame, unlike the majority of us who've been banging on our 360's for the last six years, you are aware that over a million new XBLive subscribers just got their new system. The majority of those came with Halo Reach or a Kinect so having Fruit Ninja, and Reach on sale makes perfect sense.
  • @18 So because you already bought Full House Poker, its not allowed to go on sale so that anyone else can buy it? Nice logic you have there.
  • @16 $29.99 = £19.15. Silly boy.
  • D'oh. Just realised my mistake. I retract the silly boy statement and will slink away quietly.
  • 74.95 AUSD. Daylight fucking robbery
  • 37.49? daamn, you can get it for 12.00 or around there on amazon?
  • #20 Of course people should have the chance to buy it again. Just not so soon after it was already on sale. Its the same old sales returning too often imo.
  • @21: Yes, that's what it should be but it's atcually $29.99 or £37.49. Fucking retard.
  • And there's me calling people retarded when I can't spell lol.
  • Next there'll be a Fallout sale! Oh wait...
  • But I don't play Halo...... haha just gets worse and worse man...
  • With the new crappy dashboard I imagine you don't experience those themes as they were intended. Pass.....
  • Odds that Fable III is somehow involved with tomorrow's sale?
  • i wish people would stop moaning as well... they could just as easy like no do deals at all.
  • Just bought red dead today in gamestation for a fiver, do you rekon the undead collection will be half price? It seems brill for 1600 anyway! I suppose even if the 2 packs are half price its still cheaper!
  • Hi, I have a question about the DLC. I don't have Reach, but I have Anniversary. Does anyone know if these Map Packs are compatible with Anniversary? I was under the impression that the MP is Anniversary was the same as Reach but with classic maps and modes added. If that's the case, than I would assume that Reach DLC would work with the Anniversary MP? I want to buy this, but I want to make sure I can use it first. neo
  • Gooooo Sweden, yaaay!!! Halo:Reach on GoD is down to 80$US! Hurry up while the offer is still good...
  • Haha, can't believe Reach is on 'sale' for £37.49 today. Utterly ridiculous. I've been meaning to pick it back up since I got rid of it a while back, so at least getting the map packs worked out as buy one get one free (I already have the Anniversary maps for it thanks to the redeem code in Combat Evolved). Ordered Reach from Amazon for a little over £7 brand new. Fuck you on this one, MS. But thanks for your cheap maps. :D
  • @34 If all you have is anniversary, thats all you can play, if you want to play Noble or Defiant, you'll have to have the Reach disc (or GoD).
  • can someone answer? remember when x360a posted that weapon props will be disabled from avatars. will the sword also be discontinued?
  • @the real i think yes because it's a weapon but maybe they mean just weapons like the lancer
  • Why cant microsoft be a little generous and include the Halo 3 maps as well? Sad to say but this crappy deal has been the best of all of them other than bastion.
  • I was hopibg for the halo wars maps!
  • @18 People buy Xbox Live gold to play on Multiplayer. The majority of people don't buy it so that they can get cheap deal of the weeks. Thus, considering the sales we've had on multiplayer DLC this month, Microsoft are actually thanking the loyal customers - Just not the weird ones who brought Gold to get discounted Arcade games.
  • This reminded me to redeem the code for the GoD version of Reach I got back in September.
  • @#35 LOL, wtf? $80? is that like a terrific deal in your country? you can get the full game download for $10 on ebay. these deals are all shit. at least give us a deal for some newer games, like arkham city or some shit.
  • @#42 yeah, MS is really thanking me, a loyal gold member for nearly 3 years by putting up such "fantastic titles" as the "well reviewed" fruit ninja kinect as the Xmas deal, as well as games that have been DoTW's for like 10 times. thanks microsoft! and thanks for raising the price of Gold! you guys care about the customers! not the money!
  • @34 by neolego The map packs are not compatible with Anniversary, You can play anniversary on BOTH Reach and Anniversary, but only on Reach can you play all three map packs.
  • I concur. The holiday deals are a little blah for me and the majority, but you do realize that Microsoft is a business, right? They don't owe us anything.
  • I would STONGLY advise people to buy the map packs if you ONLY intend on playing social games. Because the odds of you actually getting these maps while multiplayer matchmaking are seriously low. Still good maps though, and at a great price too. Just a tad late with the offers, should they have done this sooner, it'd sold more.
  • So far the 12 days of xbox has been a huge bust. I really hope there's something good on the backend
  • the Halo armor will look good with my gun avatar prop... oh wait
  • These Microsoft deals are a joke compared to how Steam does Christmas deals. I have been a gamer for 24 years and I can't believe these are "discounts".
  • STEAM = PC. 360 = Console. Please don't compare. Go buy your deals on Steam and stop crying. Be happy you don't have a Wii w/ NO deals ever.
  • I merely made the logical statement that console gamers get ripped off. And yes, I do buy my deals on Steam, because I would rather support Steam over Microsoft. Enjoy spending $15 on map packs.
  • I'm rich so what ever.....
  • I love steam/valve. They put out such low prices for such great games and add-ons. For xbox, I have the rewards program for MS pts, spend alot, get only like 10-400 pts in return. but these deals here are somewhat ok.
  • So Anniversary isn't even discounted?! What shit is this. Only MS can fuck up so bad as to put content that was already on sale for their biggest sale event. Fuck you MS
  • @54 Shut up Ass Hat.
  • @ 56 Do you seriously think they are going to discount a brand new game like Anniversary? If you gamertag is any indication of your age, and I'm assuming it is, I suggest you grow up and understand how business works before you run off at the mouth. No one is going to discount any game when it's still fairly new. Again, grow up kid.
  • @45 You're obviously not aware of how many households would have gotten a kinect and xbox for Christmas, hence why that deal made sense. Plus Fruit ninja is a class game... for iPod, I've never played the 360 equivalent. As for gold... lolwut? Previous years Gold has costed me £40, this year I can get it as cheap as £30, and that's with an additional 800 MS points 'free' Now, I implore you, stop whining. There are bigger problems in the world.
  • @44 i think he means 80 krona (crown) and as far as i know that is $11.13
  • FUUUU... I was going to get the Halo: Anniversary map pack but it's not part of the deal and i refuse to pay 1200MP for anything (considering content size)
  • well this sucks, i got points for xmas and used them on the map packs so i spent 800 on each of them now its 800 for both :@
  • Already have both map packs, got them when they were DotW earlier in the year. It's a shame MS hasn't had better deals, ones they haven't already had before. Oh well, I'll spend my money on other game services instead. @62 Halo:Anniversary released just over a month ago. Were you really expecting the Anniversary maps to be part of this deal? It's way too soon, that would really piss off the people who spent 1200pts on them when they released. Both of the previous Reach map packs didn't go on sale until about 4 months after their release, the Anniversary maps will most likely go on sale within 3 months.
  • Just wanted to say that the sonic content is already on sale and it's only 9:00 pm where I am smears here's the discounts Sonic and knuckles 400 down to 240 Sonic 4 episode 1 800 down to 320 Sonic adventure 800 down to 320 Sonic adventure dx upgrade 400 down to 160 Sonic the hedgehog 400 down to 160 Sonic the hedgehog 2 400 down to 160 Sonic he hedgehog 3 400 down to 160 Sonic cd is not on sale but that is to be expected it just barely came out. Always the deals are actually more than 50%. With exception of sonic and Knuckles. But sonic 4 and sonic adventure for 4 bucks hell yes please
  • I'm really sorry for all the typos lol at smears here's
  • Hell yeah. I've been waiting for a sale to snag the two map packs for cheap since October.
  • @26 (neo consumer) Well if you looked at his comment which was right after he realized that you presumptious bastard.
  • Well i grabbed some of this, cant turn your nose up at discounted stuff!
  • Halo Reach brand new in box for £9.99 from Play. Who on earth pays XBOX for digital downloads? There must be plenty of people otherwise they wouldn't sell them at these prices. Insane.
  • @61 No, he really means dollars... The regular price of Reach on GoD in Sweden is 699 kronor, or roughly 107 dollars...
  • should have done everything halo and not just halo reach
  • I bought Vanquish digital via Xbox Live - that was worth it because it was actually cheaper - but most games are more expensive on Xbox Live than in store...what the fuck are thinking...Digital Prices should ALWAYS be 5-10€ cheaper or else they should go fuck themselves.
  • @65 I think Sonic & Knuckles is always 240MSP but the rest of the deals are correct. I picked up all six Sonic deals, pretty good deal today really :)
  • @#58 Are you being serious right now? I was talking about Anniversary map pack of course, could not care less for a game I beat 10 times ages ago. You telling me to grow up is amazing thing. Looking back and into the next deals (if what was posted is true and so far it has been), season pass for Forza 4 and Gears 3 will be discounted and some of that stuff did not even come out yet and you felt like saying that 2 month old content will not be discounted? Are you being serious right now? You should take a step back and think before you start running your mouth boy.
  • for all preview of themes, u can go to themexbox.com
  • FUUUU I missed it
  • @ Vinny the shit head, yes I'm being serious, and I think it's you who need to check themselves here. I'm so far out of your league it isn't funny. I'll be sending you a message on live, be on the lookout for it. You sure you want to play with the big boys kid? You scrub.
  • Lol @75, 78 hand bags down ladies. 'I am so far out of your league it isn't even funny'
  • Lol @75, 78 hand bags down ladies. 'I am so far out of your league it isn't even funny'
  • Lol @75, 78 hand bags down ladies. 'I am so far out of your league it isn't even funny'
  • @#78 Level of your immaturity equals that of 12 year olds I find when occasionaly playing CoD. Proven your point wrong and the best you can do is calling others names and challenging for online play? You make me laugh, but don't count on me trying to prove you anything. Now why don't you run to your mom and cry her some more LOL @#79-81 We get it, no point in posting 3 times=P
  • @ Vinny the preteen junvenile delequent I sent you a message chump. You didn't even reply to my voice message to me boy! Your credibility and merit with me just reached an all time low seeing as how you are quick to run that cock garage you call a mouth your mother gave you here, while you're simply too much of a guttless coward to send me a voice message back on live? You're a riot kid, a fucking riot who needs to put in your proper place. If you're a man, and not some guttless message board coward I know you are, send me a private chat or a party invite sometime. We'll see who gets their ego bruised. And don't bother replying here, as I said, I prefer a more personal medium. I'm not expecting you to do shit anyhow as your nothing more than a chump. Next time think before barking off more than you can chew.
  • I just found out about this today and I bought both map packs the day before *Hits head against wall repeatedly*
  • @40 Just go out and buy ODST it has all the maps including DLC on it and at my Best Buy it's only $20 USD
  • Holy shit delow, do you get those "lines" from some shitty rap songs? Sure sounds like it LOL Like I said, I have nothing to prove to you and sure as hell won't be wasting my breath on you. I only reply to you, because I have nothing to do at work and find you mildly amusing. When I'm on LIVE I wouldn't even look your way, because I know it would be huge waste of time. Get a life and get out of your parents basement sometimes, see how life really is and you'll thank me later for that revelation. Stop trying to abuse site's members opinion with some lame lines you heard in a song or a movie and instead next time try to do some research before making a dick out of yourself. We both know you will read this=) Peace
