Looks like some good dealsFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:36 AM
They'll probably still be double the price of what you can get a PHYSICAL COPY for on Amazon.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:37 AM
Hopefully I can pick up some cheap DLC. Get some games finished to the max before I get my Xbone.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:37 AM
Knowing MS politics about games on demand, I'm not expecting much on these deals...But who knows...?Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:37 AM
Cool I might get Far Cry 3 depending on the priceFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:38 AM
Let's wait and see...hope it's not a 5$ offFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:38 AM
Thank God I hoarded some MSP from the code sale. See a lot of these I wanna pick up. Hopefully the prices are good.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:38 AM
This sale would be good for picking up older games, as I don't imagine they would lower the prices of newer titles enough to consider them viable for purchase over new retail disc versions.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:38 AM
Hell, I paid $20 for Prey back in 2008. It has free DLC, but not many play the multiplayer.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:40 AM
Come on, Mass Effect DLC sale!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:42 AM
Some of these could be very tempting depending on how much they are reduced by. Bioshock Infinite and Borderlands 2 I'm looking at you especially.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:43 AM
"Crysis" Haha, yes! I balked at 1840MSP despite winning 2100 MSP from the Splinter Cell competition. Hopefully they can knock it down to 1200MSP or something reasonable.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:45 AM
I don't see M$ growing Steam-sized balls and selling any of these for less than $10.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:46 AM
I hope Lego LOTR has a good price cut.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:50 AM
Looking at AC3, Bioshock Infinite, Far Cry 3, and GOW: Judgement. Here's hoping they have decent prices.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:51 AM
Far Cry 3, Lego Batman 2, and possibly Hitman Absolution..... Wow me with some incredible prices, MS. The ball is in your court.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:53 AM
@5 & @17: Far Cry 3 only costs 20€ brand new.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:54 AM
Not that I'm saying it's a bad selection, but to call this amount 'ultimate' doesn't exactly fill me with hope for any future sales. There are hundreds of games to choose from, after all.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:57 AM
I see a couple games I'd pick up if the price is right.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:00 AM
@14 Max Payne was pretty cheap in the sale earlier in the year (540MSP I think), but yeah, a lot of the newer games will be 'on sale' at $30 I've no doubt.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:04 AM
$15 or lower and I'm on it. During Christmas sale, they had Lego games for $10!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:11 AM
Time to buy CRYSIS!!!!!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:12 AM
Max Payne 3 is probably not just one of the best games on this list, but probably the best engine, graphics, and physics.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:14 AM
Will likely be a 50% off sale, but the games on demand prices are so high that even with 50% off they will still be more expensive than retail/online prices.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:14 AM
I might get Bioshock: Infinte and Max Payne 3 - depending on their prices.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:15 AM
and watch these will be the games ms gives gold members for free.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:19 AM
Let's see, LEGO LOTR and Tomb Raider? Well TR's GoD price is the same as amazon's price right now, so I'll definitely pick that up. LEGO LOTR though, that will have to be a pretty decent price drop to be less than a new copy off amazon. But even if the LEGO game doesn't go down to less than the amazon price, I'll still need to pick up some MSP this weekend for Tomb Raider. Overall, seems like a good sale to me.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:19 AM
Rockstar table tennis is like £2 for a physical copy!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:47 AM
Mass Effect for me. Never got round to playing it. Don't know why as I've played the other two. Maybe Forza Horizon if the deals are cheap enough. Wouldn't call it Ultimate Sale, Average perhaps.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:47 AM
I'm looking at The Witcher 2. Hopefully the price will be right.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:49 AM
Keeping an eye on FarCry 3, Borderlands 2, Witcher 2 and XcomFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:52 AM
I'll see what they knock Crysis and Crysis 3 out for.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:55 AM
i want monopoly . im i the only oneFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:55 AM
I got Lego LOTR (I haven't started it, yet) on sale a couple of weeks ago from Target for $19.99, so unless it's cheaper than that... I'd wait a few months, and you can have it on disc for that price - since they usually drop it to that when it has been out almost a year! Perfect Dark Zero??? That terrible game doesn't even sell at GameStop (used) for only $1.99! I'm not sure if I would even play it, if it were one of the upcoming "FREE" games they are offering. I played the demo (twice, about 3 years apart)... and I hated it BOTH times (I gave it a second chance, thinking I didn't give it a fair shake, but it was just as bad the second time). If they make it free, I'll try the full version (on my testing account) to see if it plays any better than the demo!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:58 AM
Eh, I own all but 5 of those. Hopefully there's some decent deals on DLC.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:00 PM
Monopoly Streets was on sale in early 2012 for about $22.49 (GoD). I'm hoping it will be on sale for about $14.99 (or less)... as I can just go to the store and get in on disc for $19.99 (new)! EA had better not have taken the servers for it offline... since they do that with a lot of games after online use drops below 1% (or 18 months have passed, if it's a sports game)!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:04 PM
Last I checked "Perfect Dark Zero" was .89 at GameStop with a PowerUp card. How much cheaper can it be?! LolFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:10 PM
Hmm, hopefully The Witcher 2 is cheaper than $30, or else I'll just pick it up on Amazon.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:14 PM
An impressive list of games to put on sale to say the least, now we just have to wait and see if they are actually respectable sales or not!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:32 PM
if the price is right come on down witcher 2 I got a few cheevos to get on it for the maxFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:40 PM
The last time there was a sale, the deals were pretty good. Glad to see they're finally waking up. I may get upto 8 games if the prices are right. Too bad DMC wasn't there thoughFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 12:41 PM
#24: You forgot music too. ;)Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:00 PM
Wow got thumbs down for saying I like them deals lolFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:05 PM
I never have much faith in MS's "sales" when I can go onto steam and find deals like batman arkham city goty edition for £5. Their sales are more than worth spending money onFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:05 PM
Xcom is the only one I'll be looking for, and it would have to be a major discount for me to buy it digitally over a physical disc.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:09 PM
And I wont have the space on my hard drive for any of these... still using the 20 Gig one :/ oh well.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:09 PM
Oh my fucking god. I JUST bought Judgment this morning and it's going to be on sale? DAMN IT.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:18 PM
I'm hoping for Orange Box and Crysis to go down to 400 points. Maybe a digital version of Far Cry Instincts Predator and Perfect Dark Zero so I don't have to bring the disc everywhere.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:25 PM
Crysis 2 was awesome, so I hope Crysis 1 is, too. Is there a way to get a physical copy of Crysis 1, or is it only available from XBL?Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:28 PM
@44 u cant even see the prices, so how are they good deals lolFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:29 PM
@48 You probably got it cheaper than the sale will be unless you bought it on demand or from Microsofts Store.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:53 PM
To those complaining that these will probably still be more than their physical copies, you'd be surprised. Most of these probably will but there have been some GoD sales where they were cheaper than disc copies (Metro 2033/Alan Wake and few others. Sonic Generations last week was a good price too). Also, I got a ton of points from the MS store debacle (1200 points for $5) ;)Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:56 PM
Depending on how much the drop is, might be picking up Far Cry 3, Borderlands 2 and Bioshock Infinite.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 01:59 PM
I wonder if i should buy Far Cry Instinct Predator or wait for Far Cry Classic.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:03 PM
I think I'll save my money for the steam summer sale, based on that list. Interested to see what else they add though.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:10 PM
They need better dates for these price cuts. I JUST bought 'Crysis.' I might just stop buying shit off the Dashboard altogether. I always seem to get fucked over when I do.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:16 PM
@2 Yeah that'll be because Amazon are assholes who don't pay tax so they can be cheaper.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:18 PM
all games that were free on ps plus lolFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:18 PM
Great games but I have or have played most of them so I probably wont get any this time.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:18 PM
Hopefully we see some deals like with Microsofts last huge sale. Picking up games like Batman for £2 and Borderlands for £8 was great!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:25 PM
PERFECT DARK ZERO IS GONA BE ON SALE?!?!??1111/?!/1Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:26 PM
HOPEFULLY they will discount these nicely and people will buy then MS can see that discounting games does make people buy.... cough cough....X1!Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:29 PM
@52 I got it from GoD 'cause it was $60 new from GameStop or $39.99 used. It was $39.99 from GoD.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:52 PM
Depending on pricing it looks like i will finally see if this XCOM was worth my friends hyping of it. Tomb Raider as well if the price is rightFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 02:59 PM
I doubt these sales will be any good plus I've played just about everything on here already that I want to. If the Witcher 2 is $20 or less then I might get that.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:09 PM
The last bunch of Games on Demand sales I've payed attention to were actually good deals, hopefully these are all 75%Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:29 PM
@60. Exactly one of those games has been fee on PS+Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:30 PM
I hope some games are really cheap (Around 800 points)Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:32 PM
Assassins Creed 3 I could buy if the price is right. Borderlands 2 For less than 20. I'd rebuy Mass Effect 3 if DLC is on sale too.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:34 PM
Half of those games you could get for 5$ and even less so why? There are some good new games on sale but seeing how these games are overpriced in the first place (Prey is 25$ on xbox.com and I got my copy for 3$ used WHY MICRO$OFT!!!)Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:34 PM
ill be picking up prey and crysisFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:34 PM
This is great. Far Cry 3 and Bioshock Infinite have been on my "BUY" list for months now. There are several others that I might pick up if the price just plummets......I'm looking at you Monopoly Street! :)Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:39 PM
How about a big sale on older dlc from games like left for dead,burnout paradise & i don't mean biosock,red red as those have been on sale 620 times alreadyFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:45 PM
Sounds temptingFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:49 PM
#1 "Looks like some good deals" = 4 negative votes? ouchFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:54 PM
Wow, everyone on this site seems to have forgotten the frankly astounding Christmas GoD sale where I picked up Tomb Raider Legend, Fallout 3, Halo Wars, Rainbow Six Vegas and Max Payne 3 for under £20Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 03:58 PM
I hope for Bioshock Infinite, at least a 33% discount off the season pass.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 04:13 PM
@77: That's because he is giving his opinion on deals that haven't even been listed yet. How the heck do you know how good they are until we know the prices??Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 04:17 PM
The 1st 3 games are MINE, if the price is right! Here's to hopingFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 04:20 PM
@78 Those games are extremely old so it was no surprise that the games were cheap. Most of these are relatively new or recent titles so I think its safe to be skeptical about the prices.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 04:40 PM
Not a single arcade game? Its about damn time that the arcade gets a massive price reduction on games over 18 months old.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 04:50 PM
@82 Max Payne 3 isn't "extremely old"Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 05:41 PM
Xcom and the Orange box would be nice so long as the prices are cheaper then buying them used though Gamefly or Gamestop.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 06:13 PM
I know these games on demand delas seems pretty lame in U.S., but here in Brazil the prices for videogames are way more expensive than it is in North America, so these deals are actually very nice for people who live here.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 06:27 PM
brothers in arms, divinity, witcher, and xcom are games I was most surprised about how good they were so I am happy to get them if the price is right.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 06:40 PM
Some excellent titles there. If he deals match the quality, this is going to be an expensive week. Maybe time to load up those Hungarian accounts everyone?Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 06:45 PM
some games here shouldnt even have a price tag.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 06:59 PM
@29 : I have the original copy but I bought it back with the previous sale. That way, no need for the disc anymore.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 07:35 PM
so basically there's gonna be temporary price drops on old ass games (prey?!?!?!?!) that desperately need a permanent price drop anyway, bioshock infinite just hit games on demand... for $60... over 3 months after release! I already sold my copy for $45 a long time ago, and even pre-ordered from the microsoft store so i got an additional $20 MS point code as well. Who the hell is downloading these games at these prices???Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 07:42 PM
Seeing as i got Max payne for 420msp during that sale a little while ago there might be some nice ones. Divinity or Witcher 2 for me depending on price i guessFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 07:56 PM
Looks like om Finally getting wutcher 2:-):-):-):-):-):-)Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 09:04 PM
Prey is like $2 at GameStop. Would be cool if they just gave it away for free like fable and halo.Friday, June 28, 2013 @ 10:35 PM
Prey has some of the best multiplayer I have ever played, when I could find people to play withFriday, June 28, 2013 @ 11:54 PM
I agree with #8. Metal gear rising is $100 right now here in australia, the sale would be good getting older games, if it's anything like the last big sale, the price on new games like rising will only drop by $20. Very disappointing, the game's been out for several monthsSaturday, June 29, 2013 @ 02:33 AM
If it is anything like the last "Ultimate" sale where I got Peace Walker for $10 and El Shaddai for like $2, then I am on board. Looking forward to prices on Borderlands 2, Assassin's Creed 3, Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider, Metal Gear Rising, and maybe L4D2 and the LEGO games if the prices are right. Though, since a lot of these are from this year (obviously exceptions like L4D2), I don't expect the sales to be that good. But I mean, the last sale was kind mind blowing with some newer titles, so who knows?Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 02:46 AM
Hopefully it's the games and dlc on sale...I'm not a fan of GoD but if some add-ons are the right price then maybe. Ultimate sale is a bold statement.Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 03:16 AM
hmm.. this mean Steam Summer-Sale is coming.Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 03:34 AM
Is it just games on demand or dlc for each as well if so I hope the forza horizon rally expansion is on sale I've been waiting ages for it to go on sale!Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 06:34 AM
is it just the games or DLC aswell because the games dont really do it for me (played most on disc) but DLC for Forza Horizon would be sweetSaturday, June 29, 2013 @ 10:18 AM
Hungarian account here I come lol out of curiosity are the games cheaper paying by card or Microsoft points? or are they the same value?Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 11:05 AM
Shame there aren't any Arcade games in the sale, but it makes a change for those who do buy GoD games.Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 02:05 PM
@101 It will most likely just be the games. That is a nice list of titles for the sale. I'm looking forward to seeing the prices.Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 03:39 PM
whens "next week" ???? monday tussday plz answerSaturday, June 29, 2013 @ 03:41 PM
Borderlands 2 Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway Bulletstorm Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 Crysis Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga Dragon Age Origins far Cry Instincts Predator Forza Horizon Gears of War: Judgment Hasbro Family Game Night 3 lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes Lego Lord of the Rings Metal Gear Rising: Revengence Monopoly Streets Perfect Dark Zero Prey Rockstar Table Tennis The Orange Box The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings WWE 13 XCOM: Enemy Unknown might pick em all up (depending on priceSaturday, June 29, 2013 @ 05:08 PM
Come on cheap LEGO games.Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 07:33 PM
Well personally I prefer digital over disc, so assuming the price is right, I'll definitely pick a few up. It is a bit sneaky of MS to do this right before they start giving out free games though......Saturday, June 29, 2013 @ 09:56 PM
Hopfully good dealsSaturday, June 29, 2013 @ 10:24 PM
@#106 hope you have a big hard drive then if fable is anything to go by then your looking at 110GB of games :O (give or take)Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 05:08 AM
@110 i have a spare 120 and 60gb hard drive i can fit about 1 game on the hard drive i have now because i have about 90 games on my current 1 because i hardly buy diskSunday, June 30, 2013 @ 08:58 AM
Drats, was hoping Resonance of Fate was gonna go on sale (long shot I know)Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 09:36 AM
4 or 5 usb drives and a 320 maxed out.Nearly half a dozen games had to be downloaded then deleted on the 320. Theres no way a 500 gb hdd is going to cut it on the X1. Storage it seems, is leveraged more towards the cloud. There are quite a few games i want from this sale.....more download and delete.. :( Sorry for going off topic a bit.Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 11:57 AM
@50 there is no physical version of the original Crysis for 360, only the downloadable version. @12 &33 Crysis went on sale sometime around black friday last year for $9.99 or 800 MSP. So hopefully for you guys who missed it they will drop it to at least that price point or maybe even lower.Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 12:27 PM
If Bulletstorm is £5 or less I'll get it. Not that interested in anything else. Maybe Mess Effect if it's in the price-range too. Anything else will still be more expensive than going out and buying a copy.Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 12:29 PM
I do hope this is in the style of the spring sale where games like TR Legend and Bioshock 2 were £3.50 But I am surprised to see Divinity, especially as it's the version with 2 games. I just hope it is the EU version that gets released in Europe since I played but never finished it.Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 03:58 PM
Here's hoping for the DLC for Horizon to be on sale as well. I want my 100% but the rally isn't worth nearly enough to pay full price.Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 09:14 PM
I'm hoping to buy quite a few from this list and just like others have said, I prefer digital to discs yet the prices that Microsoft have offered in the past and right now are scandalous. £50 for Gears of War: Judgment? Has it ever been £50?Monday, July 01, 2013 @ 02:10 AM
@leebradley whens nxt week ?Monday, July 01, 2013 @ 07:59 AM
Supposedly the sale starts tomorrow.Monday, July 01, 2013 @ 04:42 PM
Just had a quick look and some are discounted right now Assassins creed 3 - 8.99 (1040 msp) Bulletstorm - 4.49 (520 msp) C&c red alert 3 - 4.49 (520 msp) Crysis 1 - 4.49 (520 msp) Dragon age 1 - 4.49 (520 msp) Prey - 2.69 (320 msp) All those prices in £ and that's all I could see just now, missed assassins creed but for that price really tempted. Hope this helpsMonday, July 01, 2013 @ 10:06 PM
Assassin's Creed 3 £8.99 Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway £4.49 Bulletstorm £4.49 Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 £4.49 Crysis (1) £4.49 Dragon Age: Origins £4.49 Mass Effect (1) £4.49 Max Payne 3 £8.99 Prey £2.69 These are all the ones I could find.Tuesday, July 02, 2013 @ 03:31 AM

Microsoft is holding an “Ultimate Game Sale” on Xbox Live from next week, and Major Nelson has listed some of the titles set to receive a price cut.
According to the Xbox Live Director of Programming, “There will be different titles on-sale at different times during the week,” and although he doesn’t “know exactly what will be on sale when or for how much,” updates are promised.
We’ll be bringing those updates as and when they hit, but in the meantime here’s a list of the full games set to go on sale.
