  • Another day another disappointment
  • Fighting games, really? Disappointing and worse than yesterday.
  • Fuck off!!! I literally just bought soul calibur 2, 3 days ago.
  • TS at that price is a steal!
  • Thank friggin god I waited till SCII was on sale! Was never planning to buy it at such a stupid full price for a xbox arcade game.
  • might as well pick up street fighter seen as i have enough for it.
  • Fuck sake I just bought sc 2 =[ Ahh well...
  • Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate for around $30 versus Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown for less than $3. Not a debate, really. @ 3 & 7: This is precisely why I'm holding off buying a particular game from the XBox Live Marketplace until it either pops up as a daily special or until I'm damn sure it doesn't.
  • why do people complain so much, they dont have to do any of this 12 days of xmas. Just because you don't like the games, doesn't mean someone don't. Bet when they do have the games you like, theres loads complaining about those.
  • Dont think its right for them to reduce SC2 HD because people paid full price for that at launch and now its on sale.
  • I want to compare these with Steams Sales but I will laugh too much whilst typing
  • @8 but this is why they need to have the full listings up like they have done before =[
  • I'm glad i waited for buying Soulcalibur II HD, i guess it's the best time to grab it now ^^
  • I'll grab Mortal Kombat Arcade. So far I've gotten Fez and Castlevania SotN...I'm not too disappointed. I like it when they do these theme days like fighters, platformers, Castlevania, etc. Still hoping for a Banjo-Kazooie day or an Assassin's Creed day. Trying to resist impulse buying, don't want to spend more than $20 - $25.
  • @9 Glad to see that someone on here actually has some common sense, and can think of others instead of the me-me-me attitude so many others have. Merry Xmas to you Sir!
  • Waiting on Dark Souls.
  • pity no G-MOTW i would love BB-CS at 50% off
  • @9 how dare you bring common sense to these hostile comments section !!!
  • I'm not really into fighting games (I don't know this SOUL CALIBUR). But I "saw" when MORTAL KOMBAT 1,2 and 3 were released! They are classic for me. And 3 games for $2.49 I definitely pay. Mortal Kombat Arcade Collection for me today.
  • I would love to see the sales figures for Soul Calibur 2 from this sale versus it's launch day/week. I have a feeling that a lot of people were holding off on it because of the obnoxious top-shelf pricing.
  • @9 Agree! They can't make a deal that please EVERYONE everyday! I love the soul calibur serie but i didn't want to pay 20$ for Soulcalibur II HD i'm just happy to finally get this unexpected discount. I'm so happy! Aha! happy go lucky me! I just go my way, Living everyday! I don't worry! Worrying don't agree, Things that bother you, Never bother me! Things that bother you, Never bother me I feel happy and fine! Aha! Living in the sunlight, Loving in the moonlight Having a wonderful time! This song was the perfect way to explain how i'm feeling about this deal!
  • @21 lol you sad bastard that did make me laugh though. :)
  • @16 Dark Souls was on sale less than a month ago.
  • SOUL CALIBUR 2 IS DOWNLOADING RIGHT NOW, Anyone who paid more than $10 for a decade old game is Crazy anyway
  • @16: Uh, you're going to keep waiting because Dark Souls was 75% off Cyber Monday.
  • Mortal Kombat Arcade is costing $2.49. Not $3.74 ;-)
  • Mortal Kombat Arcade is costing $2.49. Not $3.74 ;-)
  • 9,15 and the other non-haters! I wouldn't bother trying to get through to the haters like they are normal rational creatures with functioning coping mechanisms. "I don't get what I want! Cry, bitch". Just laugh at them and enjoy the deals if they interest you. Cheers
  • Mass effect citadal please then we is good.
  • wow normally i dont get pissed about missing out on a sale... but they normally NEVER put a game on so quickly after it's release... I should have waited a week to buy SoulCaliber II grrrrrrrrr
  • @24 u must be like 12 or something. Older games are better then todays crap sometimes.
  • Seems like it's following last year's downward trajectory on quality of deals.
  • Guess I should've waited for SCII HD but I really wanted to play through weapon master again. Also a shame that I've got all of these. Great prices though.
  • @10 You could say that for every game
  • Anyone else getting an error trying to buy anything on the marketplace? UK, using my PC.
  • @10, that makes no sense, the same could be said for every game that goes on sale.
  • not a full price kind of guy anymore anyway.its all about the sale game go down in price like a new cell that comes out every month or a video car.gt Masked hysteric.. got Mvsc3 for 5 bucks :)
  • @34,37 Not really, how often does agame go on sale 32 days after release?
  • Virtua Fighter 5 for me. Easy gamerscore.
  • @35 Yeah UK PC, but works fine from the console. BTW Virtua Fighter 5 is £2.49 not £1.68
  • Fuck me, Soul Calibur JUST came out! Still worth the $20 though, and now I'll have more people to kick my ass online.
  • I hoped for samurai showdown 2 and mark of the wolfs I would of got a soul calibur 4 or 5 if it went under ten quid I would like some games that have not had a sale for ages Nail'd Pure Tekken 6 Blazblue C.S r type
  • You mixed up the prices on VF5 and MKA. Gonna buy MKA just for the nostalgia. This will be the 5th game I've purchased from this sale and thats not even including the one's that are on sale all week.
  • Also I would LOVE a 50% off gamertag change
  • Street Fighter 3 for 3 bucks is an amazing price, it's easily the best Street Fighter. Get it people!
  • Shit shit shit!
  • Soul Cali 3 is the one I'm waiting for(if it's ever released on 360).I loved that game.Survival mode was like a precursor to horde mode.Getting that back would be awesome.
  • None of these sales are worth anything.
  • SCII is still £8 AFTER a discount... might still have to give the game a miss even if i played it to death back in the day.
  • HELL yeah I agree with #45
  • ^ yesss
  • @45 or better yet make it free, and put like a once a year limit on it.....
  • Might pick up VF5, never really played that series. Eurogamer called it "Chess to every other fighters checkers." At less than £3 I'll believe anyone's bullshit.
  • Loving SC2HD fucking amazing old school feel to it Wanted to get it at release but figured id wait, smart move.
  • im really sick and tired of you people bithcing about sales that THEY DONT HAVE TO HAVE. but they do, they cant make everyone happy which is quite alot of ungrateful people. get your heads out your asses and be happy you fuckers even have an xbox. fuck you ungrateful bastards
  • I'm not bitching about the sales but sure, I'm a hater. I absolutely hate fighting games more than any other type of video game.
  • Soul Calibur should have started at $10. The other 3 are killer deals today if you don't already have them.
  • @34,37 ok but the game is a new release. Your still not understanding my statement and I got thumbed down. Ok yeah and I'm the one that makes no sense
  • Another dissapointment. Hopefully M$makes it better towards theend of the days of this year. Nothing worth buying imo
  • @40 very easy, only one i thought i would have issues with was the ring out achievement and that popped without trying lol. just be prepared to fight the same person over and over online as the community seemed to be pretty much dead when i was working on it, all in all good game neverless. :)
  • I want Saints Row 4 and Arkham Origins for $1.57 each. If MS can't accommodate my demands, then I will.... ...keep playing my 360 lulz
  • @9 Ya, except all their competitors have really awesome sales... So why would they not? They don't appreciate their customers as much? You're saying you're okay with that?
  • The problem with today's sale is that I have all these games except for SCII...Also...I'm getting really fed up with all the complaints on this site...it's like people are whining for the sake of whining...God gamers are the worst fanbase in the world...
  • @56 How is your bitching about other people bitching, any different? No need to be an ass to get your point across. We are the CUSTOMER.We are the ones who BUY their products.Therefore the consumer has the RIGHT to complain about a products price. Not every deal will be something you like.When that happens, a person should just move along and wait for something that appeals to them.I have over 350 games, so there's no need for me to complain.
  • Monday December 23rd Minecraft Avatar items (don't know if they're all discounted or if it's a select few) http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Se...ype=AvatarItem FIFA Street 3 ($4.99) http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Pr...83b?cid=search NBA Jam: On Fire Edition ($3.74) http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Pr...1ec?cid=search NFL Blitz ($3.74) http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Pr...235?cid=search
  • @65, way to fight for your right to whine.
  • @65, of course, the irony is that you didn't whine. But you won the right to.
  • @66 If it's true, NBA JAM: ON FIRE EDITION for me, baby!
  • Damn! It's true!!
  • @66 That's disappointing cause right after hating fighting games, I absolutely hate modern sports games. Sport games were fun in the 90's and early 2000's, I'm sad.. :(
  • Lol, Spandex all I'm saying is a consumer has a right to demand any price and deal.What gets old is people bagging on every offer that goes up.Deals are not made to please just one person. Somtimes there's something for you, sometimes there isn't. If you like what's on offer fine, if not move on.You can comment on the deal because that's what comments are for.The kicker though is if you're not happy with the company, why do you continue to support said company? Unless the deals are voted on what else can you do? People are gonna complain no matter what.Just like trolls and bad grammar, we'll always have to deal with it.I wasn't fighting for anything I was just trying to tell it like it is. :)
  • I think Microsoft is being smart and offloading everything they can on special. I mean if i was in charge i would do the same thing. Any game that was going to be deleted would be DOTW. You all want to bitch but it could be worse... It could be the same deals as last year, and the year before that, and that, and that... They may not be good but there are a lot of people happy about whats on sale!! I have bought 3 games. And thats three more than i would have if there were NO sales!!
  • Where's Injustice?? It's been out for so long it should be on this list for like $10
  • Capsized, Fire Pro Wrestling, Cars Race O Rama, The ones from Ea with offline servers e.t.c are a few that come to mind.Pure madness it is. Also, Rocket Riot might as well be a part of the bunch o_O.That Damn last boss >:o( .He kills me..He kills me good.How do you beat him? Back on topic.I hope some of the remaining offers have something I want.
  • @61 - I don't mind boosting the few online achievements the game has, i'm expecting the online to be dead when it comes to games like this.
