ultimate sale 2014

^Agree with everything and will just add that dishonoured also had this Bioshock kind of feel to it for me, that's the closet thing I could compare it to, but one of the powers you use in the game is called 'Blink' which is basically teleporting and imo
it's the best teleporting mechanic I've used in a game. So much fun was had!

Portal 2 doesn't even need a description as to why it's so awesome, just buy it! Haha.

 

@Pinbot -Cheers, I will be on the look out for a disc version of Skate 2 as I'm also sure there will be a as cheap copy being an older game and all.

I grabbed Dragon Age 2.

I'd recommend getting The Bridge to people who want to fix their gamerscore. All of the achievements in the game are odd point achievements.

 

Defy, get Portal 2. It's excellent. Wth? Why don't you have it by now?

 

i hope tomorrow will be a good list, i picked up a $25 card today and all i can really think of is dishonored, gears 3, and maybe/probably portal 2...

 

^Still some good choices there though.

The only game I bought from the ultimate game sale was Halo Spartan Assault which I've already played on the Xbox One (not counting twd season pass as that's deals with gold), but last time one of these sales ran I got a few retail releases for $5 and $10
so a little let down this time, but I guess you can't win them all!

 

Picked up Bioshock Infinite. I asked around for opinions and noted that I didn't liked 1 or 2: Infinite got very high praises. Here's hoping I can add myself to that list of high praisers.

 

I think you'll definitely like it man. BioShock Infinite was really good imo. I loved having Elizabeth as a sidekick and Booker was an interesting fella. I wish I didn't give it away. Oh well. Enjoy the game bro!

 

Picked up Peggle 2, Split/Second, and Painkiller Hell & Damnation.

 

I picked up 7 games, all on the first day. I think the weekly deals were much better than the daily ones. How many times does Ghosts go on sale? I would have figured that everyone that wants it, has it by now. Either they bought it on launch day, shortly
after, or picked it up any of the dozen or so times that it has been on sale. I know its not the only game that seems to be on sale all the time, its just the one that stands out to me because its always on sale when I am looking forward to catching a bargain
on something that I might actually want

 

so far i only bought dishonored and gears, with an 80% probability of portal 2 sometime today...after that i think i'm done with this sale. not the best sale microsoft has done, i think last year i bought 7 or so games, but at least i bought something. sonys
summer blast was a complete crapshoot and they only did one swap...

i wonder how many more they'll do for the last generation, or how long it'll take them to bring large sales to the xbone...wonder if they might even do some kind of "liquidation sale" where everything will go down to 60-80%. it'll be interesting to see the
360/ps3 get dropped considering they were the first console generation with such a huge focus on online and digital sales...i mean surely they can't still be supported by the time ps5 and xbox 361 1/2 come around, right?
